The sense of sound is one of our most important means (方法，手段) of knowing what is going on around us. Sound has a wasted product, too, in the form of noise. Noise has been called unwanted sound. Noise is growing and it may get worse before it gets any better.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 about it being 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 (紧张) 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 (四轮马车) from moving through the streets at night.Ways of making less noise are now being tested. There are even laws controlling noise. We can’t return to the "good old days" of peace and quiet. But we can reduce noise — if we shout loudly enough about it. When the writer says we cannot return to the good old days, he means that().
It’s 7 a.m. in Kyoto (京都), Japan, and the taxi company has just called a second time to say they can’t find my house. Once again I gave directions even a blind cabby could follow. I glance impatiently at my watch, and wait. There is only two hours left before my flight leaves — and it’s an hour-and-a-half trip to the airport.Outside, heavy rains are pouring down. The telephone rings again. "Terribly sorry," begins the speaker. Then I realize what has happened. I’ve heard taxi companies would refuse to take guests to places too far away when the weather gets bad. I shout into the phone that I have a plane to catch and ignore his further explanation. Since I must be in Seoul (首尔) by noon, I walked out in the heavy rain, trying to get a taxi on the way by myself.I gaze up and down the road. No taxi. Finally, struggling with my umbrella and suitcase, I begin to hitchhike. A car goes by, the driver and passenger staring at the well-dressed foreigner walking backward and holding his thumb(大拇指) out in the downpour.From the other direction a white Nissan approaches, then stops by me. A young man throws open the door, and climbs outside. In the most humble Japanese, the man identifies himself as the dispatcher (调度员) with whom I have spoken three times this morning. To get me to my plane, he has abandoned (放弃，离开) his post and raced from the company in his personal car. He keeps apologizing, but does not explain why a taxi could not pick me up, except to say they are "very very busy" this morning. Delivering me straight to the airport, he refuses the 4,000 yen I press into his hand.A few hours later, settling back into my seat as the storm-delayed 727 takes off, I open the newspaper. On the second page my eyes wander to the headline of a short article: "Taxi Strike Begins This Morning in Kyoto.\ Which is NOT true according to the stow().
Communicating in the New AgeE-mail is a new way of communication in every area all over the world. It is a means of ’meeting’ people with similar interests or problems. E-mailers ’write’ letters at leisure on their computers, then send them through their telephone line to an on-line computer (联机上网的电脑) far away. E-mail addresses — either names or numbers — automatically send mails to the right locations (站点). E-mailing is not a live conversation, but reply can be back at once or within hours, depending on how often the receiver checks in his computer.E-mail can also create friendship and draw families closer. E-mailers sit in comfortable chairs and ’chat’ with the friends or relatives in other parts of the country or of the world in front of the screen. Linda, a first-year student at Oxford University in Britain, drops a few lines to her mother in New York whenever she is near a computer. ’It’s funny, ’says her mother. ’We talk more now than when Linda lived upstairs.’Sending e-mail is far cheaper than making long-distance calls and it may revive (使复活) the almost lost art of letter writing. At the time when telephone service is becoming convenient (方便的) and highly effective, people make calls instead of writing letters. Now e-mail has brought people back to their grammar, vocabulary, and even spelling.E-mailing brings people together and makes the world even smaller. What is mainly discussed in the passage().
