The date was like any other day in his life. After school David walked past the shop on the street corner. He stopped to look at the front row of shoes, and he felt sorry for himself. He really wanted to have a new pair for his birthday.

    He sadly walked away and thought of how to tell his mother. He knew she would give him anything if she could. But he also knew very well she had little money. He decided not to go home at once, as he looked worried and he didn't want to make his mother worry about it. So he went to the park and there he sat on the grass. Then he saw a girl in a wheel chair. He found that the girl moved the wheels with her hands. David and was surprised to see that the girl had no feet. He looked down at his own feet. "It is much better to be without shoes than without feet." It was not right for him to feel so sorry and sad. He went away and smiled, thinking he was luckier in life.

Headphones are helpful. They are good for blocking out noise. And we use them to listen to music no influencing others. But headphones can be harmful, too. They can cause hearing loss if the volume (音量) is too loud. Studies show that one out of every 10 kids in the United States has some hearing loss. The cause is loud noise.

How Hearing Works

An ear has many working parts. Their job is to tum sound into something your brain can understand. And there are cells (细胞) inside the car that help you hear. "We call them hair cells," Jackie Clark says. "They look like hairs standing up." Clark is a professor at the University of Texas, She studies how loud noises affect (影响) our ears.

Sound moves and makes the hair cells move back and forth. Loud noises can damage (损害) these cells by getting them not straight anymore. Once the cells arc damaged, they don't grow back.

    ▲

One sign of hearing loss is tinnitus. It's a ringing in the cars. "It's like someone is playing the violin for a long time," Clark says. "It's difficult to get away from it." And the damage affects more than your ears. It can cause worries and stress.

How can you protect your ears? Keep the volume on your headphones low. You should be able to hear sounds around you. And other people shouldn't hear noise from your headphones.

Measuring(测量) Sound

Sounds or noises are everywhere. Raindrops are 40 decibels (分贝) while fireworks are 140 decibels. What about your headphones? They can go higher than 100 decibels. That's too loud. To protect your ears, keep your headphones at about half volume. And don't listen too long. About an hour a day is safe.

 阅读下面短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D 四个选项中选出最佳选项。

Marketing tents as single-use(一次性的)should be stopped, festival organisers(组织者) say, as people continue to try to cut down on plastic at festivals.

Single-use festival tents should not be used, to help avoid almost 900 tons of plastic waste each year, festival organisers have said.

A group of more than 60 festivals across the UK have pushed supermarkets such as Argos and Tesco to stop marketing and selling single-use tents. Festival-goers are also encouraged to take their tents home at the end of the festival.

About 250,000 tents are left at music festivals across the UK each year. Many are not collected and end up as waste.

The action to stop the tents ending up as waste starts with the Association of Independent Festivals(AIF). AIF's 10-year report found 10% of people attending its festivals had left a tent behind during that year's festival season. This works out as about 875 tons of plastic waste, which is the weight of 240 elephants.

In 2018, the first year of a promise to cut down on plastic, festivals reported some important changes: 40% of those who had signed the promise stopped the sale of drinks in single-use plastic cups, 67% sold reusable drinks bottles, and 87% encouraged the use of reusable bottles.

AIF CEO Paul Reed said, "The message here is not to buy a more expensive tent. Festival-goers can take their tent home and reuse it, making sure that it doesn't become a single-use tent this summer."
