26、   Where can you go to listen to a cook, a senator (参议员) or a scientist talk about important subjects? BigThink.com is a new website created to provide discussions between world experts and Internet users. Victoria Brown and Peter Hopkins created Big-Think.com. They said that people need an international stage on which to exchange, discuss, and debate the important ideas of our time. Subjects discussed on BigThink include the environment, music and questions about happiness and personal identity.

The the BigThink website has been called a YouTube for thinkers. At the BigThink website , when you click on a subject, you find a video (视频) of a person talking about his or her ideas. For example, you can listen to United States Senator Ted Kennedy talking about education and civil rights. Under their videos, you can read the comments and questions written by other visitors to the website. More than one hundred experts express their ideas on the website.

BigThink also has an important list of financial (财政的) supporters. These include Peter Thiel who helped create the PayPal company; Larry Summers, a former United States secretary of the Treasury, and David Frankel, a businessman from South Africa.

BigThink’s creators started the website by first getting famous people to agree to be videotaped（录像）. They began by interviewing several well-known professors from Harvard University, which they had attended. Then they used the names of these professors to gain the trust of others and get them to take part in the project.

The website helps everyone whose motto is: “We are what you think.” So, go online and start thinking big.

27、   Scientists have been working to grow meat “in vitro,” or in a laboratory, for many years. In the laboratory, they mix cells from a horse and a pig. They feed the cells to help them increase in number and grow into a small piece of meat.

Right now, the meat that scientists have made is very small and looks gray because in vitro meat does not need blood to grow. But this is not its only problem. It takes a long time for the meat to  grow and scientists do not know how to make a large amount. It also costs a lot of money to  make in vitro meat. Making enough for one meal would cost $250,000.

Although producing in vitro meat has many problems, scientists continue to work because in vitro meat would have many advantages. Since we have 7,000,000,000 people on the planet to feed in, vitro meat can help lower the need for the earth’s resources(资源).

Besides, “Moving the production of meat from farms to laboratories would help cut down the huge amount of harmful gases produced by farm animals,” says reporter Nick Collins.

In vitro meat could solve many of the problems of animal meat. But can humans eat this in vitro meat? Scientists do not know if it even tastes like real meat. Because of food research laws, they are not yet able to taste their meat. But they hope someday people can buy it in their local market. They say it is real meat and it is just made in a different way.

A lot of people are still worried about in vitro meat. However, it will be years before the meat is ready to sell. Kate Shipard, a writer for Mother Jones magazine, says, “It will require hard testing before it can be fed to humans. It is still such a new idea that we do not know yet what health problems it may have. Right now, there are no rules for in vitro meat.”

【1】What are the scientists trying to find out in their experiment?

A.How to get a new kind of animal. B.How to make a new kind of meat.

C.How to make animal meat taste better. D.How to greatly increase animals’ numbers.

【2】What’s Paragraph 2 mainly about?

A.The ways to improve the experiment.

B.The bad influence the experiment brings.

C.The problems scientists face in the experiment.

D.The difficulty in collecting money for the experiment.

【3】What does Nick think of in vitro meat?

A.It stops people’s cruelty to animals. B.It is environmentally friendly.

C.It is against the rules. D.It worries him a lot.

【4】According to scientists, in vitro meat ____.

A.is safe to eat. B.tastes like real meat.

C.may be successful in the future. D.will soon be available on the market.

29、   A year ago, Jiao Wenchao, 31 and a college teacher suddenly realized that he was having hearing problems. A hospital examination suggested that both his ears were losing the ability to hear high frequency sounds. The doctor told him that the problem was caused by over exposure（暴露）to high frequency and loud noise, including from his earphones.

A recent report by the World Health Organization has warned that some 1.1 billion teenagers and young adults are at risk of hearing loss due to the unsafe use of personal audio devices, including smart phones.

Data from studies in middle-and high-income countries analyzed by WHO indicate that among teenagers and young adults aged between 12 and 35, nearly 50 percent were exposed to unsafe levels of sound from personal audio devices and around 40 percent were exposed to potentially(潜在地) damaging levels of sound at entertainment sites.

According to the study, safe listening depends on the intensity(密度) or loudness of sound, as well as the duration（持续）and frequency of listening. When the exposure is particularly loud, regular or prolonged, it could lead to permanent damage of the ear's sensory cells, it says.

The study results have caught wide attention on the Internet in China. Many internet users admit that compared with more noticeable health problems like eyesight loss, hearing loss has been largely neglected(忽略) as it is usually in the high frequency section, which means that those who suffer it can still carry out daily communication unaffected.

Pan Tao, an otologist from Peking University Third Hospital in Beijing says that timely treatment is critical. "This is because sometimes the hearing loss is temporary and can be cured with therapy, including medicine. However, it can become irreversible(不可逆转的) if the problem is not properly treated within the first two or three months.

"But many people miss the best time to get treated because they do not even realize the existence of the problem."

It says teenagers and young people can better protect their hearing by keeping the volume down on personal audio devices, wearing earplugs when visiting noisy sites, and using carefully fitted, and, if possible, noise-canceling earphones or headphones.

【1】What causes hearing loss?

A.Freguent exposure to loud noise.

B.Listening to music on the phones.

C.Going to noisy places once in a while.

D.Not having your hearing examined regularly.

【2】What can we conclude from the studies by WHO?

A.Half of the population in rich countries will go deaf.

B.People should not use personal audio devices.

C.Loud noise will cause physical damage to ears.

D.Hearing loss is a potentially serious problem.

【3】Why don’t people pay attention to hearing loss?

A.It won’t affect communication. B.It can be cured easily.

C.It often escapes notice. D.It is only temporary.

【4】What is suggested to avoid hearing loss?

A.Have your hearing examined regularly.

B.Keep yourself to a safe sound volume.

C.Stay away from personal audio devices.

D.Don’t go to noisy places.
