9、ar is made up of three different sections that work together to collect sounds and send them to the brain: the outer ear, the middle ear, and the inner ear. The outer ear is made up of the pinna and the ear canal. The pinna is the part of the ear you see on the side of your head. Its main job is to
10、gather sounds and funnel them to the ear canal, which is the pathway that leads to the middle ear. Glands(腺) in the skin lining the ear canal produce earwax(耳垢), which protects the canal by cleaning out dirt and helping to prevent infections. The middle ear is an air-filled hole that turns sound wav
11、es into vibrations and delivers them to the inner ear. The middle ear is separated from the outer ear by the eardrum(鼓膜), a thin piece of tissue stretched tight across the ear canal. Sounds hit the eardrum, causing it to move. The vibrations from the middle ear change into nerve signals in the inner
12、 ear. The inner ear includes the cochlea(耳蜗) and the semicircular canals. The snail-shaped cochlea changes the vibrations from the middle ear into nerve signals. These signals travel to the brain along the cochlear nerve, also known as the hearing nerve. Teach kids to protect their hearing by paying
13、 attention to the noise levels theyre exposed to. Have them turn down the volume on video games, TVs, and, especially, portable music players. Make sure they take hearing protection (like earplugs or protective headphones) when theyll be around loud noises (at a concert, car race, etc.). If your chi

16、s.C. The teachers.D. The kids.C A recent article published by the science journal Nature Neuroscience says that excessive (过度的) light exposure at night leads to symptoms of depression in mice. Health experts have long suggested that exposure to light during nighttime may lead to depression in humans
17、, but now Chinese scientists have verified that this happens to mice. Scientists from the University of Science and Technology of China, based in Hefei, Anhui Province, found that the effect was partly controlled by a neural pathway that carries signals from the eyes to a specific region of brain. B
18、locking the pathway could prevent the effect, the paper said. In their experiments, the scientists exposed dozens of mice to blue light from 9 p. m. to 11 p.m. Blue light was chosen because neurons are most sensitive to it, according to An Kai, the lead author of the paper, which was published in th
19、e science journal Nature Neuroscience. To our surprise, the effect was very obvious in mice, said An. The exposure resulted in more than 70 percent of the subject mice exhibiting depressive symptoms, which was shown by two classical tests. The mice exhibited decreased mobility in the forced swimming
20、 test and decreased preference in the sugar preference test. An said researchers finally hope to verify the mechanism in humans, but further experiments are required. Mice are more active at night than in the daytime, which is contrary to humans. For the next stage of research, we will move on to ot
21、her animals whose biological rhythms are closer to humans, An said. Exposure to excessive light at nighttime, either from lights or the use of electronic devices such as mobile phones or personal computers before bedtime, has been associated with a greater risk of depression, the paper noted.8.What
22、has the research found?A.Humans are depressed when theyre exposed to light at night.B.Much exposure to light at night makes mice depressed.C.Mice are more sensitive to light at night than humans.D.Its harmful to be exposed to blue light at night.9.What does the underlined word verified in Paragraph
23、2 probably mean?A.Proved.B.Hoped.C.Remembered.D.Guessed.10.Which of the following was a result caused by the exposure to blue light at night?A.The mobility of the mice in swimming improved.B.The mice became more sensitive to blue light.C.The mice showed less interest in sugar.D.The mice no longer li
24、ked swimming.11.What can we infer from the last paragraph?A.Its less harmful to be exposed to light from the sky.B.We should never use personal computers before bedtime.C.Its necessary not to use mobile phones too much at night.D.Depression can be avoided if we dont use electronic devices at night.D
25、 The moon may hold water in more places and in larger amounts than scientists have suggested in the past. The finding is based on two studies published in Nature Astronomy that examined new data from the U. S. space agency NASA. Until about 10 years ago, scientists believed the moon was mostly dry.
26、Then, a series of findings provided evidence that water ice was widespread in small amounts on parts of the moon. The ice was thought to be in areas permanently blocked from sunlight. But in one of the new studies, NASA said it was able to validate the presenceof water molecules(分子) on sunlit parts
27、of the lunar surface. The space agency says the identification came from data collected by its SOFIA airborne observatory equipped with a powerful telescope. The research was led by Casey Honniball of NASAs Goddard Space Flight Center in Maryland. Scientists have suggested the source of the water ma
28、y have been comets(彗星), asteroids(小行星), solar wind or interplanetary dust. The new research provides evidence that the water may be surviving on sunlit lunar surfaces because it is attached to minerals. The second study centered on so-called cold traps on the moon. These are areas of the lunar surfa
29、ce that exist in a state of permanent darkness where temperatures are below about minus 160 degrees Celsius. Scientists say temperatures this cold can hold frozen water for billions of years. Planetary scientist Paul Hayne of the University of Colorado Boulder led the research on cold traps. He said
30、 likely tens of billions of traps. Haynes team says the new research suggests more than 40,000 square kilometres of the moons surface may have the ability to trap water in the form of ice. That figure is 20 percent bigger than predicted in the past, Hayne said. Jacob Bleacher is the chief exploratio
31、n scientist for NASAs Human Exploration and Operations Mission Directorate. He told reporters the agency believes it is very important to find out more about where the water comes from and how accessible it is.12. Which word can replace the underlined word validate in paragraph 3?A. Confirm.B. Deny.
32、C. Observe.D. Control.13. What can we learn about cold traps?A. They exist for a relatively short time.B. Theres much moving water there.C. They are on the sunlit part of the lunar surface.D. The temperature is extremely low there.14. What may the future research focus on?A. How cold traps take shap
33、e.B. How to make use of the water.C. How water is attached to minerals.D. How much water is on the lunar surface.15. What does the author intend to tell in the text?A. Water is found to exist on the moon.B. Moon holds more water than expected.C. Scientists found cold traps on the lunar surface.D. NA
