It might have been a really bad stressful day, feeling trapped inside by the cold and snow which surrounded us. My husband got dressed and 1 that he was going outside to build a giant snowman.
At first he stood alone,2 massive amounts of snow. Soon after a neighbor joined in. Then we reluctantly put on our snow gear(装备) and 3 outside. It wasn’t long 4 we were smiling and enjoying the 5 of snow that Mother Nature had provided. Others came to our yard one by one to give a 6 in the making of our giant snowman.
In the end we all stood back and 7 at what we had created. He was eleven feet high, twenty-five feet around at the base and 8 with many household items supplied by various 9 .People drove by and smiled. Some even stopped just to enjoy his 10.
With the passing of time, the spring made its 11 back into our yard and the snowman changed form 12 .In a final effort to save what we created for just a little bit 13 ,somebody stopped by and changed the snowman’s 14 to look like a rabbit.
As I prepared for the start of another week, I decided to 15 my email before going to bed. I found a 16 message that contained the subject line: 17 the snowman.
The email said:… your neighbor looks on in disbelief! Now you people are relishing(享受) the sounds and smells, along with 18 of spring. But I am sure people will never forget the 19 energy displayed in Mr Snow-man. You and your family keep it up, as this is what the world needs now. More power to you and your loved ones, keep 20 with the world around!

[1]Some people's ears produce wax like busy little bees. This can be a problem even though earwax appears to serve an important purpose. Experts say it protects and cleans the ear. It traps dirt and other matter and keeps insects out. Doctors think it might also help protect against infections. And the waxy oil keeps ears from getting too dry.

[2]So earwax is good. It even has a medical name: cerumen. And there are two kinds. Most people of European or African ancestry have the "wet" kind: thick and sticky. East Asians commonly have ___________.But you can have too much of a good thing.

[3]The glands(腺体) in the ear canal that produce the wax make too much in some people. Earwax normally falls out of the ear or gets washed away. But extra wax can harden and form a blockage that interferes with sound waves and reduces hearing. People can also cause a blockage when they try to clean out their ears,but only push the wax deeper inside. Earwax removal is sometimes necessary. But you have to use a safe method or you could do a lot of damage.

[4]Experts at N.I.H., the National Institutes of Health, suggest some ways to treat excessive earwax yourself. One way to remove wax is known as irrigation. With the head upright, take hold of the outer part of the ear. Gently pull upward to straighten the ear canal. Use an injector device to gently direct water against the wall of the ear canal. Then turn the head to the side to let the water out.

[5]The experts at N.I.H. say you may have to repeat this process a few times. Use water that is body temperature. If the water is cooler or warmer, it could make you feel dizzy. Never try irrigation if the eardrum is broken. It could lead to infection and other problems.

[6]After the earwax is gone, gently dry the ear. But if irrigation fails, the best thing to do is to go to a

 health care provider for professional assistance.
