Suspended (待用的) Coffee

This story will warm you better than a coffee on a cold winter day.

One day, my friend and I entered a little coffee house and ordered two cups of coffee. While we were waiting, two young men came in and began to order, "Five cups of coffee, please. Two of them for us and three suspended." They paid for their order, took the two and left. I asked my friend: "What are those 'suspended' coffees?" Instead of giving me the answer, he told me to wait and see.

Some more people came. Two girls asked for one coffee each, paid and went away. Then came three lawyers who paid for seven coffees—three for themselves and four suspended. While I still wondered what the suspended coffees were, I enjoyed the sunny weather and the beautiful view in front of the coffee house. Suddenly a poor man like a beggar(乞丐) came into the coffee house. He kindly ordered a suspended coffee and sat there to drink it.

At that moment, I knew the meaning of the suspended coffees. It's simple — people pay the coffee in advance(預(yù)先) for someone who can't afford it. The tradition with the suspended coffees started in Italy, but it has spread all over the world. Meanwhile, I understood suspended coffee is not only a cup of coffee, but also the warmth and love to someone in need.

1.How many cups of coffee did the two young men order?

A．One. B．Four. C．Five. D．Seven.

2.Who ordered a suspended coffee ?

A．My friend. B．Two girls. C．Three lawyers. D．A poor man.

3.The tradition with the suspended coffee started in ______.

A．America B．Italy C． England D．Canada

4.The writer wants to tell us to ______.

A．pay for others B．enjoy the sunshine

C．help someone in need D．order more than before

Do you like listening to music? Do you often turn up the music when you’re using earphones? If so, your hearing may have been damaged(損壞).

The World Health Organization (WHO) is worried that 1.1 billion children and young people are damaging their hearing by listening to loud music. Nearly half the young people in developed countries may lose their hearing because of the "unsafe use" of music players, including smartphones. Loud music in nightclubs, parties and at sports also make it worse. The WHO advises young people to listen to music for just one hour a day. Dr. Etienne Krug told BBC: "What we're trying to do is to draw people's attention to a problem that is not talked about enough." He said it's easy to solve this problem.

Dr. Krug said keeping the music down and limiting (限制) the listening time to less than one hour a day would save a lot of people's hearing. However, he also said, "Even an hour can be too much if the music is too loud.” Ralph Holme, a researcher, explained how loud noise can damage ears. He said: "Loud sounds damage your hearing by killing off thousands of little hair cells(細(xì)胞) in the inner ear. The cells can tell different sounds through vibration(振動(dòng)). But they are very fragile — they get damaged easily and even die if they vibrate too much because of loud sounds for too long.” He warned: "The bigger problem is they don't grow back and the ear can no longer get sound."

No one wants to lose their hearing! Therefore, next time when you listen to music, make sure it's not too loud and only listen for less than an hour. You can enjoy your music much better in this way.

2.How long does WHO advise young people to listen to music a day?

C．For half of the day. D. For more than one hour.

3.What does the word “fragile” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?

A. weak. B．clever. C．small. D. strong.

4.From the passage we can learn that __________.

A．keeping the music down would save young people's hearing

B．the damaged cells can grow back and the ear can get sound

C．young people lose their hearing because of going to the nightclubs
