Maybe ten - year - old Elizabeth put it best when she said to her father, “But, Dad, you can’t be healthy if you’re dead.”
Dad, in a hurry to get home before dark so he could go for a run, had forgotten to wear his safety belt - the mistake 75% of the US population make every day. The big question is why.
There have been many myths about safety belts ever since their first appearance in ears some forty years ago. The following are three of the most common.
Myth Number One: It’s best to be “thrown clear” of serious accidents.
Truth：sorry, but any accident serious enough to “throw you clear” is also going to be serious enough to give you a very bad landing. And chances are you’ll have traveled through a windshield or door to do it. Studies show that chances of dying after a ear accident are twenty - five times greater in cases where people are“thrown clear”.
Myth Number Two: Safety belts “trap” people in ears that are burning or sinking in water.
Truth: Sorry again, but studies show that people knocked unconscious (昏迷) due to not wearing safety belts have a greater chance of dying in these accidents. People wearing safety belts are usually protected to the point of having a clear head to free themselves from such dangerous situations, not to trapped in them.
Myth Number Three: Safety belts aren’t necessary at speeds of less than 30 miles per hour (mph).
Truth: When two ears traveled at 30 mph hit each other, an unbelted driver would meet the windshield with a force equal to driving headfirst into the ground from the height of 100 meters.
1．Why did Elizabeth say to her father, “But, Dad, you can’t be healthy if you’re dead?”
[ ]
A．He was driving at great speed.
B．He was running across the street.
C．He didn’t have his safety belt on.
D．He didn’t take his medicine on time.
2．The reason Father was in a hurry to get home was that he ________.
[ ]
A．Wasn’t feeling very well
B．hated to drive in the dark
C．wanted to take some exercise
D．didn’t want to be caught by the police
3．According to the text. to be “thrown clear” of a serious accident is very dangerous because you ________.
[ ]
A．may be knocked down by other ears
B．may get seriously hurt being thrown out of the ear
C．may find it impossible to get away from the seat
D．may get caught in the ear door
4．Some people prefer to drive without wearing a safety belts because they believe ________.
[ ]
A．the belt prevents them from escaping in an accident
B．they will be unable to think clearly in an accident
C．they will be caught when help comes
D．ears catch fire easily
5．What is the advice give in the text?
[ ]
A．Never drive faster than 30 miles an hour.
B．Try your best to save yourself in a ear accident.
C．Never forget to wear the safety belt while driving.
D．Driving slowly while you’re not wearing a safety belt.

Our love of music and appreciation of musical harmony is learnt and not based on natural ability, a new study by University of Melbourne researchers has found. The researchers said previous theories about how we appreciate music were based on the physical functions of sound, the ear itself and a born ability to hear harmony.
The study shows that musical harmony can be learnt, and it is a matter of training the brain to hear the sounds. So if you thought that the music of some foreign culture (or Jazz) sounded like the crying of cats, it’s simply because you haven’t learnt to listen by their rules.
The researchers used 66 volunteers with a range of musical training and tested their ability to hear combinations of notes(音符) to determine if they found the combinations familiar or pleasing. They found that people needed to be familiar with combinations of notes. If they found the notes unfamiliar they also found the sound unpleasant. This finding put an end to centuries of theories claiming that physical functions of the ear determine what we find attractive.
The study found that trained musicians were much more sensitive to unpleasant notes than non-musicians. When they couldn’t find the note, the musicians reported that the sounds were unpleasant, while non-musicians were much less sensitive. This shows the importance of training or nurturing(培養(yǎng)) the brain to like particular sound of combinations of notes, like those found in jazz or rock.
Depending on their training, a strange chord(和弦) sound was pleasant to some musicians, but very unpleasant to others. This showed us that even the ability to hear a musical note is learnt.
To confirm this finding, they trained 19 non-musicians to find the notes of a random selection of western chords. Not only did the participants’ ability to hear notes improve rapidly, afterward they reported that the chords they had learnt sounded more pleasant -- regardless of how the chords were played.
The question of why some combinations of musical notes are heard as pleasant or unpleasant has long been debated. “We have shown in this study that for music, beauty is in the brain of the beholder(觀看者)”, a researcher said.
1.According to the study, people find foreign music quite unpleasant because_____.
A. they hear the music much too often
B. they don’t like the person playing it
C. they have no idea about how to listen
D. they have no born musical ability at all??
2.Although non-musicians were less sensitive to music, they can still_____.
A. be trained to like particular music
B. make friends with real musicians
C. find the beauty of chords without training
D. enjoy the beauty of music when played by musicians
3.The 19 non-musicians were trained in order to show_____.
A. the brain likes particular combinations of notes
B. not a strange note was pleasant to all musicians
C. how the chords were played was very important
D. people’s ability to hear a musical note can be learnt
4.What is the main idea of the passage?
A. Love of musical harmony can’t be taught.
B. Love of music is not natural but nurtured.
C. Listening to music can improve your brain.
D. You can be a musician without being trained.

[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(腺體) 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.
