It is generally believed that we are getting cleaned when we step under a shower. We are, but we’re also giving a home to lots of tiny little creatures we didn’t even know about. A shower head carries thousands of bacteria called Mycobacterium. These can cause problems like coughs and tiredness, and a general feeling of being sick. When you turn on the water, the bacteria go from the shower head onto and into your body.
This is a finding of Norman R. Pace and his team at the University of Colorado, in the US. Pace's team looked at 45 shower heads in nine American cities. They discovered that 30 percent of them had large amounts of flying Mycobacterium.
But Pace said that they pose few threats to the health. Only those with a weak immune system might need to worry.He told the New York Times that the bacteria are not as unpleasant as might be thought. He said that having a shower is no more dangerous than anything else we do in the morning.
But for those who feel sick about the idea of all those microorganisms (微生物), he had some advice. Let the water run for 30 seconds before getting into the shower. Why? The number of bacteria is smaller than that when the water is just turned on. If that seems like a waste of water, he added that you could also change your shower head every few months.
However, Pace had good news too. He has also been testing the air in US subways. Apart from iron particles (粒子), which are ground off the track by the wheels of trains, subway air is fresh. The reason is that a train’s movement pumps fresh outdoor air into the tunnels.
1.From the finding of Norman R. Pace, after taking a shower, we might cough or feel tired because ________.
A. it’s easy to get a cold when taking a bath
B. the shower head carries many bacteria causing illness
C. we don’t get cleaned while showering
D. we don’t get a weak immune system
2.We can learn from the third paragraph that ________.
A. the bacteria always threat people’s health
B. there is no need to fear microorganisms for people with strong immune system.
C. the bacteria always threat people’s health when people have a shower
D. it is better to do some exercise in the morning than have a shower.
3.What contributes to fresh air in US subways?
A. The train’s movement. B. Iron particles.
C. Train wheels. D. Air conditioners on the trains.

When I was two years old, I was diagnosed with a sensorineural (感觉神经) hearing loss. My mother cried when she found out—she wanted her son to be happy and able to experience everything life had to offer. I went to a special playgroup twice a week where a nurse discovered I had taught myself to read. I then attended a school for the deaf from age three to six.
I remember looking around the room there. People talked and signed to each other. I had a best friend and I did very well in class. But I told my mother that I wanted to go to the regular school with hearing people, because I felt more like a hearing person than a hearing-impaired (听力受损) one. I didn’t even use sign language! I lip-read and listened with my hearing aids. After visiting a public school for a day, my mother agreed to let me go. Needless to say, I have functioned very well.
Many people don’t even know I am hearing-impaired until they see my hearing aids. My girlfriend often forgets that I have any problem, and I feel fortunate that she does not look down upon people like me. The only problem I have with this hearing loss is that some people discriminate against me. The fact is that I am just as normal as anyone else. The only differences are that others need to speak up, and I have some help from my hearing aids.
The next time you see hearing-impaired people, don’t feel sorry for them—that just gives them an excuse to victimize themselves and hurt their own potential. Instead, encourage them and tell them that a handicap(缺陷)only hurts a person if he or she lets it.
1.Which is TRUE about the author when he was 5?
A. He was diagnosed with hearing loss.
B. He stayed at home with his mother.
C. He attended a school for the deaf.
D. He went to a special playgroup.
2.Why did the author want to attend the regular school?
A. He had few friends at the school.
B. He even didn’t know sign language.
C. He found it hard to fit in with his classmates.
D. He didn’t believe his handicap was a big problem.
3.What was the author’s problem at the regular school?
A. He couldn’t catch up with others.
B. Some people looked down upon him.
C. His girlfriend discriminated against him.
D. He performed poorly with hearing aids.
4.What does the underlined part in the last paragraph mean?
A. The disabled should regard themselves as normal.
B. If a person is handicapped, he will hurt himself.
C. A normal person shouldn’t hurt the handicapped.
D. A disabled person should be well treated.
