16、rber. D.Ann Leslie.BDuring the last twenty years there has been increasing concern with the quality of the environment. Along with air and water pollutants, noise pollution has been recognized as a serious pollutant. As noise levels have risen, the effects of noise have become more apparent. Noise i
17、s defined as “unwanted sound”. Causes of noise pollution include traffic, aircraft, rock bands, barking dogs, television, garbage trucks, and noise from neighbors, voices, alarms, and watercrafts. Studies show that over forty percent of Americans are disturbed at home or lose sleep because of noise
18、pollution. When we think, talk, listen to music, or sleep, we need a quiet atmosphere. Even low levels of noise can be annoying or frustrating. Sudden increases in volume can make sounds annoying. The quieter the background is, the more penetrating a noise can be. Long exposure to noise levels above
19、 eighty-five decibels (分贝) can damage inner ear cells and lead to hearing loss. Noise can result in the involuntary fear response and can cause adrenaline (肾上腺素) to be pumped into the bloodstream, the heart rate to quicken, muscles to tense, breathing to increase and the digestive system to slow dow

Pressure to learn peoples names only adds to the stress. A new facial-recognition app could come to the rescue, but privacy experts recommend
24、 proceeding with caution. The app, called SocialRecall, connects names with faces via smartphone cameras and facial recognition, potentially avoiding the need for formal introductions. It breaks down these social barriers we all have when meeting somebody, says Barry Sandrew, who created the app and
25、 tested it at an event attended by about 1,000 people. After receiving an invitation to download SocialRecall from an event organizer, the user is asked to take two selfies and sign in via social media. At the event, the app is active within a previously defined geographical area. When a user points
26、 his or her phone camera at an attendees face, the app identifies the individual, displays the persons name, and links to his or her social media profile. To protect privacy, it recognizes only those who have agreed to participate. And the apps creators say it automatically deletes users data after
27、an event. Ann Cavoukian, a privacy expert who runs the Privacy by Design Center of Excellence praises the apps creators for these protective measures. However, she cautions that when people choose to share their personal information with the app, they should know that there may be unintended consequ
28、ences down the road with that information being used in another context that might come back to bite you.The start-up has also developed a version of the app for individuals who suffer from prosopagnosia(面孔失认症), or face blindness, a condition that prevents people from recognizing individuals they ha
29、ve met. To use this app, a person first acquires an image of someones face, from either the smartphones camera or a photograph, and then tags it with a name. When the camera spots that same face in real life, the previously entered information is displayed. The collected data are stored only on a us
30、ers phone, according to the team behind the app.28.SocialRecall is used to _.A.take photosB.identify peopleC.organize eventsD.make friends29.Paragraph 3 is mainly about _.A.how the app worksB.how the app was createdC.what makes the app popularD.what people can do with the app30.SocialRecall helps pe

32、from the passage?A.It may put peoples privacy at risk.B.It has caused unintended consequences.C.It can prevent some communication disorders.D.It is praised by users for its protective measures.DOne of the greatest killers in the Western World is heart disease. The death rate from the disease has bee
33、n increasing at an alarming speed for the past thirty years. Today in Britain, for example, about four hundred people a day die of heart disease. Medical experts know that people can reduce their chances of getting heart disease by exercising regularly, by not smoking, by changing their diets, and b
34、y paying more attention to reducing stress in their work. However, Western health-care systems are still not paying enough attention to the prevention of the disease. There is a need for more programs to educate the public about the causes and prevention of heart disease. Instead of supporting such
35、programs, however, the US health-care system is spending large sums of money on the surgical treatment of the disease after it develops. This emphasis on treatment clearly has something to do with the technological advances that have taken place in the past ten to fifteen years. In this time, modern
36、 technology has enabled doctors to develop new surgical techniques. Many operations that were considered impossible or too risky a few years ago are now performed every day in US hospitals. The result has been a huge increase in heart surgery. Although there is no doubt that heart surgery can help a
37、 large number of people, some people point out that the emphasis on the surgical treatment of the disease has three clear disadvantages. First, it attracts interest and money from the question of prevention. Second, it causes the costs of general hospital care to rise. After hospitals buy the expens
38、ive equipment that is necessary for modern heart surgery, they must try to recover the money they have spent. To do this, they raise costs for all their patients, not just those patients whose treatment requires the equipment. The third disadvantage is that doctors are encouraged to perform surgery-
39、even on patients for whom an operation is unnecessary-because the equipment and expert skills are there. A government office recently stated that major heart surgery was often performed even though its chances of success were low. In one type of heart surgery, for example, only 15 percent of patient
40、s improved their conditions after the surgery. However, more than 100 000 of these operations are performed in the United States every year.32.What effect has modern technology had on medicine?A.It has reduced the costs of medical treatment.B.It has helped save the lives of most patients.C.It has en
41、couraged doctors to do more heart surgeries.D.It has helped educate people about the prevention of heart disease.33.“To do this” (in Paragraph 3) means _.A.to help patients recoverB.to increase the number of heart surgeriesC.to get back the money spent on the equipmentD.to buy new equipment for the
42、treatment of heart disease34.The author would agree that _.A.more money should be spent on the prevention of heart diseaseB.heart surgery has helped most patients improve their conditionsC.modern technology has made heart surgery more risky than beforeD.the public have known a great deal about the c
