    One in five US teenagers have some degree of hearing loss, according to researchers who said the
    problem is growing."Teenagers really underestimate how much noise they are exposed to" Dr Josef
    Shargorodsky said.____
    The study, published in the Journal of the American Medical Association, compared national
    surveys between the early 1990s and the mid2000s.In the first survey, about 15 percent of teenagers
    had some degree of hearing loss.____Most of the hearing loss was in one ear only.While it was
    usually slight, one in 20 adolescents had more pronounced (显著的) problems-up 50 percent since
    the first survey.
    Hearing loss is very common in the elderly, Grimes said, but she added that it was concerning to
    see it come into the younger age groups.In babies and young children, hearing problems are known
    to delay language development, which in turn influences performance in other areas.Slight hearing loss,
    for instance, makes it difficult to distinguish between highfrequency consonants like "s" and "f"
    ____The science is less clear for adolescents, but it is easy to imagine how being hard of hearing
    could influence learning, said Grimes."We know from a lot of data that noisy classrooms are one of the
    biggest challenges to learning."
    The reasons for the rise are still uncertain.When asked about noise exposure-on the job, from
    firearms or recreational activities, for instance-the teenagers didn't indicate any change.But
    Shargorodsky said, "We knew from before that it is difficult to ask this age group about noise
    exposure-they underestimate it."____Although it's not clear that these devices are to blame,
    Grimes said it was still a good idea to turn down the volume.But she pointed out the advice would
    likely fall on deaf ears.She said the American Academy of Hearing had also contacted Steve Jobs,
    the CEO of Apple, about adding a volume limiter on iPods, but never heard back.
    1. In which place should the sentence "Few people would call it noise when they listen
    to music on their MP3 players, for instance." be put?
    A. ①
    B. ②
    C. ③
    D. ④
    2. What's the main idea of the third paragraph?
    A. Hearing loss was very common in the elderly in the country.
    B. The sounds like "s" and "f" are hard to distinguish by babies.
    C. The number of teenagers with hearing problems is decreasing.
    D. Babies and teenagers are also facing problems of hearing loss.
    3. Which of the following is TRUE?
    A. The reasons of the hearing loss are known to the researchers.
    B. The surveys have been carried out for at most 15 years.
    C. The reasons for the rise are clear to the researchers.
    D. The results of the surveys have been published in a newspaper.
    4. The American Academy of Hearing contacted the CEO of Apple in order to________.
    A. share the surveys with the CEO of Apple
    B. get more help in finance from the Apple Company
    C. remind the company to add a volume limiter on iPods
    D. express warning and threat to the CEO of Apple

  • 日常生活类阅读

日常生活类阅读的概念:

日常生活这一话题主要涉及人们衣食住行等方面的活动。这一话题的选材主要针对人们日常的工作,生活以及学习情况。做这一类题时,最主要的是要把握好人物的活动内容,时间和地点。


日常生活类阅读题答题技巧:

【题型说明】
该类文章内容涉及到人们的言谈举止、生活习惯、饮食起居、服饰仪表、恋爱婚姻、消遣娱乐、节日起源、家庭生活等。文章篇幅短小,追根溯源,探索各项风俗的历史渊源,内容有趣。命题也以送分题为主,如事实细节题、语义转换题、词义猜测题和简单推理判断题等。虽然这类文章读起来感觉轻松,试题做起来比较顺手,但绝不能掉以轻心。因为稍不留神,就会丢分。   
【备考提醒】
为了保证较高准确率,建议同学们做好以下几点:   
1、保持正常的考试心态。笔者在教学中发现,越是容易的试题,同学们越是容易失分。为什么呢?因为在这种情况下,同学们极易产生麻痹思想,认为题目好做,就不引起高度重视,于是思维不发散、不周密。而命题人就是利用同学们的这一弱点,设计陷阱题。所以,无论试题难易与否,我们都要保持正常的考试心态。试题容易,不欣喜;试题难,不悲观。   
2、根据前面讲到的方法,认认真真、细细心心做好事实细节题。   
3、做好语义转换题。这类题是根据英语中一词多义和某些词语在文中能表达一定的修辞意义的原则而设计的。要求同学们解释某生词的含义,确定多义词或短语在文中的意思,确认文中的某个代词所指代的对象,或者对英语中特有的表达、格言、谚语进行解释。这种题要求同学们一定要根据上下文猜测词义或理解句子,切不可望文生义。   
4、做好简单推理判断题。简单推理判断题要以表面文字为前提,以具体事实为依据进行推理,做出判断。这种推理方式比较直接,只要弄清事实,即可结合常识推断出合理的结论。
