28、 loss. Extremely loud music and noises that go on for long periods of time are common causes of deafness. If a noise is so loud that you have to shout to make yourself 3 , there is a 4 that the mechanism inside your ear can be injured. Temporary heating loss can happen after you“ve been exposed to l

29、oud noise for only 15 minutes. If you have temporary hearing loss, you won“t be able to hear as 5 as you normally can, and you may have tinnitus, which is a fancy word for ringing in the ears. Your ears call feel “full“, too. 6 , these things usually go away and your heating soon return to normal. P

32、t, the noise can damage the ears. The best way to avoid hearing loss is to wear ear protectors when working with machinery and earplugs when going to a concert. Headphones are OK to wear when you“re listening to music; just be sure the volume isn“t too high, and give them a rest 10 once in a while.（

In medicine as in law, government, and other lines of work, the requirements of honesty often seem dwarfed by gre

35、ater needs: the need to shelter from brutal news or to uphold a promise of secrecy; to expose corruption or to promote the public interest. What should doctors say, for example, to a 46-year-old man coming in for a routine physical checkup just before going on vacation with his family who, though he

36、 feels in perfect health, is found to have a form of cancer that will cause him to die within six months? Is it best to tell him the truth? If he asks, should the doctors deny that he is ill, or minimize the gravity of the illness? Should they at least conceal the truth until after the family vacati

37、on? Doctors confront such choices often and urgently. At times, they see important reasons to lie for the patient“s own sake; in their eyes, such lies differ sharply from self-serving ones. Studies show that most doctors sincerely believe that the seriously ill patients do not want to know the truth

38、 about their condition, and that informing them risks destroying their hope, so that they may recover more slowly, or deteriorate faster, perhaps even commit suicide. As one physician wrote: “Ours is a profession which traditionally has been guided by a precept that transcends the virtue of uttering

39、 the truth for truth“s sake, and that is “as far as possible do no harm.“ But the illusory nature of the benefits is now coming to be documented. Studies show that, contrary to the belief of many physicians, an overwhelming majority of patients do want to be told the truth, even about grave illness,

40、 and feel betrayed when they learn that they have been misled. We are also learning that truthful information, humanely conveyed, helps patients cope with illness: help them tolerate pain better, need less medicine, and even recover faster after surgery. There is urgent need to debate this issue ope

41、nly. Not only in medicine, but in other professions as well, practitioners may find themselves repeatedly in difficulty where serious consequences seem avoidable only through deception. Yet the public has every reason to be wary of professional deception, for such practices are peculiarly likely to

42、become deeply rooted, to spread, and to erode trust. Neither in medicine, nor in law, government, or the social sciences can there be comfort in the old saying, “What you don“t know can“t hurt you.“（分数：5.00）(1).According to the author“s opinion, lies _.（分数：1.00）A.can benefit the patients.B.can help

43、the patients to recoveryC.can do nothing to the patients“ illnessD.can not benefit the patients(2).Which of the following statements is not true?（分数：1.00）A.Most of the doctors believe that the seriously ill patients do not want to know the truth about their condition.B.The truthful information helps

44、 patients to deal with their illness.C.There is a need to discuss whether to lie or not to the patients.D.It is true that “What you don“t know can“t hurt.“(3).What is the main idea of the last paragraph?（分数：1.00）A.There is urgent need to debate this issue openly.B.Neither in medicine, nor in law, go

45、vernment, or the social sciences can there be comfort in the old saying. “What you don“t know can“t hurt you.“C.The public has every reason to be wary of professional deception.D.We need to discuss this issue in medicine, but not in other professions.(4).What does the author mainly discuss in the pa

46、ssage?（分数：1.00）A.Deception is beneficial to patients.B.Whether patients should be told the truth of their illness.C.Whether patients really want to know the truth of their illness.D.Who benefits from deception.(5).The reasons that the doctors lie to the patients are _.（分数：1.00）A.seriously ill patien

47、ts do not want to be told the truthB.informing them risks destroying their hopeC.telling truth may make them deteriorate fasterD.all the above十三、Passage Two(总题数：1，分数：5.00)English speakers pick up pitch in the right hemispheres of their brains, but speakers of certain other languages perceive it on t

48、he left as well. It all depends on what you want to learn from pitch, Donald Wong of the Indiana School of Medicine in Indianapolis told the meeting last week. Earlier studies have shown that when an English speaker hears pitch changes, the right prefrontal cortex leaps into action. This fits in wit

49、h the idea that emotive nuances of languagewhich in English are often carried by the rise and fall of the voiceare perceived on the fight. But in “tonal“ languages like Thai, Mandarin and Swedish, pitch not only carries emotional information, but can also alter the meaning of a word. Wong and his colleagues suspected that a speaker of tonal language would register pitch in .the left side of the brainin particular Broca“s area, which processes the linguistic content of language. To test this, the team asked English speakers a
