Scientists, for several years, have been studying how noise affects people and animals. They are surprised by what they have learned. Peace and quiet are becoming harder to find. Noise pollution is a threat that should be looked at carefully.
There is a saying that it is so noisy that you can't hear yourself think. Doctors who study noise believe that we must sometimes hear ourselves think. If we don't, we may have headaches, other aches and pains, or even worse mental problems.
Noise adds more tension to a society that already faces enough stress.
But noise is not a new problem. In ancient Rome, people complained so much about noise that the government stopped chariots(战车) from moving through the streets at night!
Ways of making less noise are now being tested. There are even laws controlling noise. We cannot return to the "good old days" of peace and quiet. But we can reduce noise—if we shout loudly enough about it.
Why are scientists surprised by the findings in their noise study？
A．Because the world is becoming increasingly noisy.
B．Because they have learned that noise is also is also a kind of pollution.
C．Because noise is an unwanted waste for human beings.
D．Because people knew little about noise before.

Why would things weigh only a quarter as much as they do at the surface of the earth if we took them 4,000 miles out into space？ The reason is this: All objects have a natural attraction for all other objects; this is called gravitational attraction, but this power of attraction between two objects gets weaker as they get farther apart. When the butter was at the surface of the earth, it was 4,000 miles from the center (in other words the radius[半径] of the earth is 4,000 miles). When we took the butter 4,000 miles out, it was 8,000 miles from the center, which is twice the distance.
If you double the distance between two objects, their gravitational attraction decreases (减少) two times two. If you treble (成三倍) the distance, it gets nine times weaker (three times three). If you take it four times as far away, it gets sixteen times weaker (four times four ) and so on.
The best title for this passage is______.
A．The Earth Weight
B．Weight in Space
C．Changing Weight on the Earth
D．Weight on and off the Earth
Sports and games are also very useful for character-training. In their lessons at school, boys and girls may learn about such virtues as unselfishness, courage, discipline and love of one's country; but what is learned in books cannot have the same deep effect on a child's character as what is learned by experience. The ordinary day-school cannot give much practical training in living, because most of the pupils' time is spent in classes, studying lessons. So it is what the pupils do in their spare time that really prepares them to take their place in society as citizens when they grow up. If each of them learns to work for his team and not for himself on the football field, he will later find it natural to work for the good of his country instead of only for his own benefit.

Why the Super-Rich Aren"t Leaving Much of Their Fortunes to Their Kids
A．What do Sting， Bill Gates and Warren Buffett have in common？ All three have huge fortunes， and none of them are giving them to their kids．Sting just revealed that most of him $ 300 million would not end up with his six adult children．The musician said that he certainly didn"t want to leave them trust funds that are obstacles round their necks．"They have to work．All my kids know that and they rarely ask me for anything， which I really respect and appreciate．"
B．Bill and Melinda Gates are giving a reported $10 million for each of their three children: pocketchange compared with their $ 76 billion．Buffett"s three kid~ each have a $ 2 billion foundation funded by Dear Old Dad．The rest of his money goes to charity， just like Gates and several other billionaires who have invested their vast fortunes in improving the world．As Buffett famously put it， the perfect amount to leave children is "enough money so that they would feel they could do anything， but not so much that they could do nothing．"
C．All those spoiled rich kids with more money than sense won"t make smart choices or live healthy， productive lives if they have unlimited access to the money they inherit．Celebrity chef Nigella Lawson has stated she has no intention of leaving a substantial inheritance: "I am determined that my children should have no financial security．It ruins people not having to earn money．"
D．Wealthy families have always struggled with this issue．But the same drama is now playing out on a smaller scale for millions of baby boomers （婴儿潮时期出生的人）， who hesitate to give away $ 30 trillion over the next 30 years——the largest transfer of wealth in American history．What used to be a private family matter has become a public discussion about wealth， privilege and pemonal responsibility．Who gets the big money？ Should it be the heirs？ Or are they better off without it？
E．"We probably struggled over this more than any other issue，" says a local self-made multi- millionaire．The businessman and his wife， worth hundreds of millions， grew up modestly in middle- class families and wanted to create a financial plan that would take care of their children——but not spoil them——if the couple died suddenly．"We were fearful of what might happen if they had control of a large amount of money at a young age，" he says．"The more we stared at that， the more we became uncomfortable．"
F．Inspired by Buffett"s example， they created trusts for each of their now college-age children．Each kid has $ 2．5 million controlled by trustees， who can release money only for education， health care， a home purchase or a business start-up．Any unspent money in the trust will continue to be invested and grow．Those restrictions remain in place until each child reaches age 40; after that， the money is all theirs to do as they please．By 40， their parents assume they will be mature enough to use the money wisely or save it as a safety net．The rest of the multimillion-dollar family fortune is going to a foundation， which will eventually be managed by the children and can be used only for charity．The kids are aware of the trusts and the planning that went into them．"They really are thrilled with it，" their father says．"They want to be their own persons．" A huge inheritance， he
believes， can be a lifelong trap for children of rich parents．"I didn"t want them to look in the mirror and say， " Who am I？""
G．Whether having so much money is good or bad for trust-fund babies depends on how the family has prepared the kids， their personal qualities and how well they handle the pressures of great wealth and the fear of not inheriting．For every party girl like Paris Hilton， there"s an Ivanka Trump， who got a business degree from wharton and has made her family"s money and famous name valuable into a prosperous career．Johnson used his inheritance to launch a filmmaldng career and to live， all things considered， a relatively normal life in New York．"In my case， it turned out to be a great benefit，" he says．
H．Most parents want to protect their children from the dark excesses of money——drugs， legal troubles， and so on——and preserve the family fortune for future generations．That usually doesn"t work out: The fn"st generation makes the money， the second spends the majority of it， and the third drains the rest．Hence the old saying goes like " Shirt sleeves to shirt sleeves in three generations．" Traditionally， the wealthy gave all their money to their children and grandchildren， and then hoped for the best．Baby boomers， says consulting firm Accenture managing director Bob Gach， are living longer and struggling to balance their own retirement needs and interests with their children"s weffare．Boomers are different from previous generations: more likely to give away money while they"re still alive， more concerned about their adult children finding and keeping jobs．Excess properties typically go into tax-protected trusts．
I．There are really good reasons to leave a tegacy （遗产） in a thoughtful way——ways that promote the production and healthy lifestyles．Many trusts are structured to distribute inheritances at the specific ages determined in advance．A commonpractice is to give a third at 25， a third at 30 and the rest at35．Some inheritances are set up to encourage the heirs to graduate from college， marry or hold a job for a specific amount of years before any money will be released．
J．A lot of people don"t like to talk about money because they don"t want the kids to know how much they"re actually worth or what they might inherit．Although adult children in the United States have no legal rights to their parents" money， it"s rare for heirs to get cut off with nothing．But that doesn"t mean they get everything．Bill Gates， the world"s richest man， won"t disclose the exact amount each of his three kids will inherit， but he said they"ll get an "unbelievable" education and
health care and the reported $10 million， which still puts them fmnly in the One Percent——but not even close to their self-made father"s billions．For that， they"ll have to found their own empire．In terms of their income， they will have to pick a job they like and go to work．
If rich kids are well cultivated and prepared for the txust fund， it will be beneficial to their future． 查看材料
As anxiety-makers, examinations are second to none. That is because so much depends oil them. They are the mark of success of failure in our society. Your whole future may be decided in one fateful day. It doesn't matter that you weren't feeling very well, or that your mother died. Little things like that don't count: the exam goes on. No one can give of his best when he is in mortal terror, or after a sleepless night, yet this is precisely what the examination system expects him to do. The moment a child begins school, he enters a world of vicious competition where success and failure are clearly defined and measured. Can we wonder at the increasing number of "drop outs": young people who are written off as utter failures before they have even embarked on a career？ Can we be surprised at the suicide rate among students？
A good education should, among other things, train you to think for yourself. The examination system does anything but that. What has to be learnt is rigidly laid down by a syllabus, so the student is encouraged to memorize. Examinations do not motivate a student to read widely, but to restrict his reading; they do not enable him to seek more and more knowledge, but induce cramming. They lower the standards of teaching, for they deprive the teacher of all freedoms. Teachers themselves arc often judged by examination results and instead of teaching their subjects, they are reduced to training their students in exam techniques which they despise. The most successful candidates are not always the best educated; they are the best trained in the technique of working under duress.
The results on which so much depends are often nothing more than a subjective assessment by some anonymous examiner. Examiners are only human. They get tired and hungry; they make mistakes. Yet they have to mark stacks of hastily scrawled scripts in a limited amount of time. They work under the same sort of pressure as the candidates. And their word carries weight. After a judge's decision you have the right Of appeal, but not after an examiner's. There must surely be many simpler and more effective ways of assessing a person's true abilities. Is it cynical to suggest that examinations are merely a profitable business for the institutions that run them？ This is what it boils down to in the last analysis. The best comment on the system is this illiterate message recently scrawled on a wall: I were a teenage drop-out and now I are a teenage millionaire.
The main idea of this passage is ______.
A．examinations exert a pernicious influence on education
B．examinations are ineffective
C．examinations are profitable for institutions
D．examinations are a burden on students
