Tom, a 15-year-old boy, couldn't hear anything after the whole night computer games and MP3 listening. He was excited and yelled (喊叫) after the MP3. When he walked out of his room the next morning, he could hear nothing about his mother's words. His mother sent him to the doctor at once. It was moderate (中度) hearing loss (耳聾).

Do you have an MP3 player? Do you use it to listen to your favorite music? A survey (調(diào)查) shows that lots of young people enjoy listening to their MP3 players. And they always listen to them at high volumes (音量). There are about 100 million people listening to MP3 players in Europe every day. Most of them are young people. Scientists have found that if people listen to MP3 players at a very high volume for more than five hours a week, they could lose their hearing in five years.

High-volume music can keep people excited, so young people would like to keep their players high. It's too bad for the ears. So the MP3 listeners should keep the player within safe volume levels, no higher than 60～70 of full capacity (容量). If people near you can hear your MP3, that means you are keeping your MP3 at a very high volume, turn it down, please!

A. He played the computer games.

B. He yelled after the MP3.

C. He listened to the MP3.

D. He went to see the doctor.

2.Who enjoys MP3 most?

D. Because the young people want to have hearing loss.

4.What's the safe volume of the MP3?

A. People beside you can hear your MP3.

B. No higher than 60-70 of full capacity.

We are all called upon to make a speech at some point in life, but most of us don't do a very good job. This article gives some suggestions on how to give an effective speech.

So, you have to give a speech and you're fearful. You get nervous, you forget what you want to say, you stumble over (結(jié)結(jié)巴巴地說）words, you talk too long and you bore your audience. Later you think,“ Thank goodness, it's over. I'm just no good at public speaking. I hope I never have to do that again.”

Cheer up! It doesn't have to be that bad. Here are some simple steps to take the pain out of speech making. Ask yourself the purpose of your speech. What is the occasion(場合)? Why are you speaking? Then, gather as many facts as you can on your subject. Spend plenty of time doing your research. Then spend plenty of time organizing your material so that your speech is clear and easy to follow. Use as many examples as possible and use pictures, charts and graphs if they will help you make your points more clearly. Never forget your audience. Don't talk over their heads so that they can understand what you say. They will appreciate your thoughtfulness.

Just remember: Be prepared. Know your subject, your audience and the occasion. Be brief. Say what you have to say and then stop. And be yourself. Let your personality come through so that you make person-to-person contact with your audience.

If you follow these simple steps, you'll see that you don't have to be afraid of public speaking. In fact, you may find the experience so enjoyable that you volunteer to make more speeches! You're not sure yet. Give it a try and see what happens.
