* Although noise , commonly defined as unwanted sound , is a widely-recognized form of pollution , it is difficult to
measure because the discomfort experienced by different individuals is highly subjective and, therefore , variable .
Particularly in congested urban areas , the noise produced as a by-product of our advancing technology causes
physical and psychological harm but it also detracts from the quality of life for those who expose to it
Unlike the eye the ear has no lid ; therefore , noise penetrates without protection . Loud noises instinctively signal
danger to any organism with a hearing mechanism , including human beings . In response , heartbeat and respiration

accelerate, blood vessels constrict, the skin pales , and muscles tense . In fact , there is a general increase in
functioning brought about by the flow of adrenaline released in response to fear .
Because noise is unavoidable in a complex , industrial society , we are constantly responding in the same ways that
we would respond to danger . Recently , researchers have concluded that noise and our response may be much more
than annoyance . It may be a serious threat to physical and psychological health and well-being , causing damage
not only to the ear and brain but also to the heart and stomach . We have long known that hearing loss is American’s
number one non-fatal health problem, but now we are learning that some of us with heart disease and ulcers may be
victims of noise as well.
36 The word “congested’ is closest in meaning to…
A polluted B hazardous C crowded D rushed
37 The word “detracts“ could best be replaced by……
A destroys B decreases C brings about D forms
38 The word “it” refers to…………
A the noise
B the quality of life
C our advancing technology
D physical and psychological harm
39 The word “accelerate’ is closest in meaning to…
A cease B increase C swell D decrease
40 What is the author’s main point ?
A Noise may pose a serious threat to our physical and psychological health
B Loud noises signal danger
C Hearing loss is America’s number one non-fatal health problem
D The ear is not like the eye
41 People respond to loud noises in the same way they respond to ………
A annoyance B danger C damage D disease
42 It can be inferred from the passage that the eye ……
A responds to fear
B increases functions
C enjoys greater protection than the ear

D is damaged by noise
43 According to the passage , what is noise ?
A A by-product of technology
B Physical and psychological harm
C Congestion
D Unwanted sound
44 Why is noise difficult to measure ?
A It causes hearing loss
B All people don’t respond to it in the same way
C It is unwanted
D People become accustomed to it
45 Which of the following would the author most probably agree with ?
A Noise is not a serious problem today
B Noise is America’s number-one problem
C Noise is an unavoidable problem in an industrial society
D Noise is a complex problem
* Research into happiness is always open to question . Do people , when asked , tell the truth about whether or not
they are happy? Isn’t it peculiar to tell a complete stranger that you are miserable? Possibly . Nevertheless, people
who fill in questionnaires without giving their names show the same sort of results as those in open interview. It
might also be suggested that people do not know whether they are happy or not. But , if you believe that most people
are aware of their own emotional state and express it honestly when asked , the research makes some fascinating
discoveries. It is interesting to note what does not necessarily make you happy. Class, wealth , social position ,
intelligence , and race are all poor indicators (although poverty is a good indicator of unhappiness). Women are
slightly happier than men , and older people rather satisfied _though less joyful_ than younger people . But most
people are _or claim to be_ happy. This is , surprisingly , the same for everyone . “Whatever situation people are in,
whether they are prisoners or lottery winners, roughly the same levels of happiness can be found”.
Marriage is a greater source of happiness than being single. 35 % of married men and 25.5% of married women
claim to be very happy, whereas the figures for single men and women are 18.5% and 25.5%. However, having
children is not the source of happiness many believe it to be . Survey after survey shows that happiness levels begin
to fall after the birth of a child, reaching their lowest point in the teenage years and only return to previous levels

when the children leave home . This is rather strange , since people keep on having kids despite the clear evidence
that having children makes you less happy . One possible explanation is that there are things that people consider
more valuable than happiness ,like a feeling of being worthwhile. Or maybe bad marriages stick together because of
children.
