His fairy tales have brought happiness to children across the world. The tales have versions（版本）of over a hundred languages.

Andersen was born in Denmark in 1805. When he was still a young boy, he was already very clever and imaginative. He created a small toy theatre and made clothes for his puppets(木偶).He also loved reading.

In 1816, his father died and he learned to be a tailor(裁缝). Later he worked in a factory. At the age of fourteen, Andersen moved to the capital of Denmark to become an actor and gave performances in the Royal Danish Theatre.

24、

Painful for Your Ears

Do you often listen to music at loud volumes? You should know that this habit is bad for your hearing, according to the World Health Organization (WHO).

The human ear has three different parts. The outer ear is the part you can see. The middle ear and inner ear are inside your head. That doesn't mean those parts can't be hurt. They can be harmed by loud noises. Over one billion young people are at risk of hearing loss due to listening to loud noise for long periods of time, said WHO. Listening to music or watching a TV show at loud volumes can harm your hearing.

Sounds are measured in decibels (dB分贝). A whisper is 30 dB. A friend talking is about 60 dB. The sound of a busy road is about 85 dB and the sound of a rock concert can be about 100 dB. The United Nations has standards for safe listening. It is not safe to listen to sounds that are louder than 85 dB for eight hours or 100 dB for 15 minutes.

Loud noise is harmful to the inner ear. Most of us are born with about 16,000 hair cells (听毛细胞) in our inner ears. These cells detect (探测) sounds. However, listening to loud noise for a long time can make these cells work too hard and cause some of them to die. This is what causes hearing loss.

Some people might think that their music isn't all that loud. But this can depend on where you are. For example, if you are in a noisy place like the subway, you might turn up your music too loud without realizing it. Later, when you listen to it the same volume in a quiet place, you might feel uncomfortable.

What can be done to protect your hearing? Use noise-canceling (降噪) headphones. These headphones get rid of background noise. You don't need to turn up the volume as much. Keep your device volume at 50 to 60 percent. Limit daily use of headphones. Listen to sound on your mobile devices for a maximum of one hour per day.

The less loud noise you hear, the better!

【1】Listening to loud music causes hearing problems because_______.

A.it can stop our ears from resting

B.it puts our brains under great pressure

C.it can cause hair cells in the inner ear to die

D.it makes people get used to listening to loud sounds

【2】From paragraph 5, we can know_______.

A.people love to listen to loud music

B.people don't always know how loud their music is

C.it's great to listen to music on the subway

D.it's reasonable to listen to loud music in some places

【3】The writer probably agrees that _______.

A.people have to wear headphones while walking on a busy road

B.listening to music on TV is better for hearing than on mobile devices

C.young people should set a time limit of listening to music at loud volumes

D.wearing noise-canceling headphones can stop the outer ears being harmed

25、Knowing the best way to study will help you to be a better student. By using your time p【1】, you can do your homework more quickly. Learning to study is not difficult.

The first thing to remember is that you must be willing to learn. It doesn’t m【2】 that you must always like the subject. It does mean, however, that you must be willing to learn what is n【3】 to learn. Try to understand why it is important and how it will help you now and later to do and learn other things. Knowing maths facts will be u【4】 in your whole life. Knowing how to spell English words c【5】 makes any kind of writing easier. Sometimes the s【6】 that you think is going to be uninteresting will become exciting when you begin to work at it and understand it more clearly.

Make good use of class time to listen to e【7】 the teachers say. Really listening in class means less work after class.

Look around your house and find a quiet place with good lighting for study. Get everything r【8】 before you sit down to study. Reviewing the important points that were mentioned by the teachers in class will consolidate (巩固) what you have learned. Previewing the material that the teacher will teach the next day will help you understand it more easily in class and you will remember it l【9】.

These ways may help you with your study. You will probably discover many others after you have tried these. The way which is s【10】 for you is the best.
