In general, it seems reasonable to suppose that we should prefer peace and quiet to noise. And yet most of us have had the experience of having to adjust to sleeping in the mountains or the countryside because it was initially “too quiet”, an experience that suggests that humans are capable of adapting to a wide range of noise levels. Research supports this view. For example, Glass and Singer (1972) exposed people to short bursts of very loud noise and then measured their ability to work out problems and their physiological reactions to the noise. The noise was quite disruptive at first, but after about four minutes the subjects were doing just as well on their tasks as control subjects who were not exposed to noise. Their physiological reactions also declined quickly to the same levels as those of the control subjects.
But there are limits to adaptation and loud noise becomes more troublesome if the person is required to concentrate on more than one task. For example, high noise levels affect the performance of subjects who were required to monitor three dials at a time, a task not unlike that of a plane pilot or an air-traffic controller. Similarly, noise did not affect a subject’s ability to track a moving line with a steering wheel, but it did affect the subject’s ability to repeat numbers while tracking (Finkelm and Glass 1970).
Probably the most significant finding from the research on noise is that its predictability is more important than how loud it is. We are much more able to “tune out” long-lasing background noise, even if it is quite loud, than to work under circumstances with unexpected disturbance of noise. In Glass and Singer’s study, in which subjects were exposed to bursts of noise as they worked on a task, some subjects heard loud bursts and others heard soft bursts. For some subjects, the bursts were spaced exactly one minute apart (predictable noise); others heard the some amount of noise overall, but the bursts occurred at random intervals (unpredictable noise). Subjects reported finding the predictable and unpredictable noise equally annoying, and all subjects performed at about the same level during the noise portion of the experiment. But the different noise conditions had quite different after-effects when the subjects were required to proofread written material under conditions of no noise. The study shows that the unpredictable noise produced more errors in the later proofreading task than predictable noise; and soft unpredictable noise actually produced slightly more errors on this task than the loud predictable noise.
Apparently, unpredictable noise produces more fatigue than predictable noise, but it takes a while for this fatigue to take its toll on performance.
【小題1】When talking about people’s difficulty in sleeping in the mountains, what can be inferred in the passage?

A.They usually do not prefer peace and quiet to noise.
B.They may be exposed to short bursts of very strange sounds.
C.They prefer to hear a certain amount of noise while they sleep.
D.They may not have adapted to a higher noise level in the city.
【小題2】What did Glass and Singer find in their noise experiment?
A.Problem-solving is much easier under quiet conditions.
B.Physiological reactions prevent the ability to work.
C.Bursts of noise hardly disturb problem-solving in the long term.
D.The physiological reactions of the control subjects declined quickly.
【小題3】Researchers discovered that high noise levels are not likely to affect the __________.
A.successful performance of a single task
B.tasks of pilots or air traffic controllers
C.a(chǎn)bility to repeat numbers while tracking moving lines
D.a(chǎn)bility to monitor three dials at once
【小題4】 What does “take its toll on performance” in the passage probably mean?
A.Destroy the performance completely.
B.Have a negative effect on the performance.
C.Improve the performance greatly.
D.Have a positive influence on the performance.

Sharks have lived in the oceans for over 450 million years, long before dinosaurs appeared. There are now about 360 species of sharks, whose size, behavior, and other characteristics differ widely.
Every year, we catch and kill over 100 million sharks, mostly for food and for their fins. Dried shark fins are used to make shark fin soup, which sells for as much as $50 a bowl in fine Hong Kong restaurants. Other sharks are killed for sport and out of fear. Sharks are vulnerable(易受傷的) to overfishing because it takes most species 10 to 15 years to begin reproducing and they produce only a few offspring(后代).
Influenced by movies and popular novels, most people see sharks as people-eating monsters. This is far from the truth. Every year, a few types of shark injure about 100 people worldwide and kill about 25. Most attacks are by great white sharks, which often feed on sea lions and other marine(海洋的) mammals. They sometimes mistake human swimmers for their normal prey, especially if they are wearing black wet suits.
If you are a typical ocean-goer, your chances of being killed by an unprovoked(非受挑釁而發(fā)生的)attack by a shark are about 1 in 100 million. You are more likely to be killed by a pig than a shark and thousands of times more likely to get killed when you drive a car.
Sharks help save human lives. In addition to providing people with food, they are helping us learn how to fight cancer, bacteria, and viruses. Sharks are very healthy and have aging processes similar to ours. Their highly effective immune system allows wounds to heal quickly without becoming infected, and their blood is being studied in connection with AIDS research.
Sharks are among the few animals in the world that almost never get cancer and eye cataracts(白內(nèi)障). Understanding why can help us improve human health. Chemicals taken from shark cartilage(軟骨)have killed cancerous tumors in laboratory animals, research that someday could help prolong your life.
Sharks are needed in the world’s ocean ecosystems. Although they don’t need us, we need them. We are much more dangerous to sharks than they are to us. For every shark that bites a person, we kill one million sharks.
【小題1】Which of the following is NOT a reason why people kill sharks?

A.People kill sharks for food.
B.People kill sharks for sport.
C.People kill sharks out of fear.
D.People kill sharks because they often attack swimmers.
【小題2】According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT true?
A.There are many different species of sharks, but only a few of them are dangerous to humans.
B.Sharks never get ill.
C.Sharks are a valuable resource for human.
D.Sharks play an important role in the ocean ecosystem.
【小題3】It can be inferred from the passage that _______.
A.movies have given people the wrong impression of sharks
B.most sharks are dangerous to humans
C.sharks will attack anyone who is wearing black
D.it is dangerous to swim in the ocean
【小題4】The underlined word “prolong” in the last but one paragraph means ______.
A.saveB.protectC.lengthenD.improve
【小題5】The best title for the passage would be _______.
A.Are Sharks Dangerous?B.Sharks And Humans
C.Sharks: Humans’ FriendsD.Sharks Help Save Human Lives
