[文档开始] 燥声的危害 燥声是任何一种人都不需要的声音,不论是音乐,还是机器发出来的声音,只要令人生厌,对人们形成干扰,它们就被称为燥声。一般将60分贝作为令人烦恼的音量界限,超过60分贝就会对人体产生种种危害。 强烈的燥声会引起听觉器官的损伤。当你刚从机器轰鸣的厂房出来时,可能会感到耳朵听不清声音了,必须过一会儿才能恢复正常,这便是燥声性耳聋。如果长期在这种环境下工作,会使听力显著下降。 燥声会严重干扰中枢神经正常功能,使人神经衰弱、消化不良,以至恶心、呕吐、头痛,它是现代文明病的一大根源。 燥声还会影响人们的正常工作和生活,使人不易入睡,容易惊醒,产生各种不愉快的感觉,对脑力劳动者和病人的影响就更大了。 [文档结束] 在考生文件夹下,打开文档WDA3_04.DOC,插入文档WTA3_02.DOC,将文档中提供的除标题段文字外的表格数据转换成5行4列的表格,设置列宽为3厘米,行高自动设置,表格中的文字设置为五号,黑体,第一行和第一列的文字居中,其他各单元格中的数字右对齐。存储为文档WDA3_04.DOC。

America is a country that now sits atop the cherished myth that work provides rewards, that working people can support their families. It’s a myth that has become so divorced from reality that it might as well begin with the words "Once upon a time". Today 1.6 million New Yorkers suffer from "food insecurity", which is a fancy way of saying they don’t have enough to eat. Some are the people who come in at night and clean the skyscrapers that glitter along the river. Some pour coffee and take care of the aged parents of the people who live in those buildings. The American Dream for the well-to-do grows from the bowed backs of the working poor, who too often have to choose between groceries and rent. In a new book called "The Betrayal of Work", Beth Shulman says that even in the booming 1990s one out of every four American workers made less than $8. 70 an hour, an income equal to the government’s poverty level for a family of four. Many, if not most, of these workers had no health care, sick pay or retirement provisions. We ease our consciences, Shulman writes, by describing these people as "low skilled", as though they’re not important or intelligent enough to deserve more. But Iow-skilled workers today are better educated than ever before, and they constitute the linchpin (SYNC) of American industry. When politicians crow (得意洋洋地说) that happy days are here again because jobs are on the rise, it’s these jobs they’re really talking about. Five of the 10 occupations expected to grow big in the next decade are in the lowest-paying job groups. And before we sit back and decide that’s just the way it; is, it’s instructive to consider the rest of the world. While the bottom 10 percent of American workers earn just 37 percent of our average wage, their counterparts in other industrialized countries earn upwards of 60 percent. And those are countries that provide health care and child care, which eases the economic pinch considerably. Almost 40 years ago, when Lyndon Johnson declared war on poverty, a family with a car and a house in the suburbs felt prosperous. Today that same family may well feel poor, overwhelmed by credit card debt, a second mortgage and the cost of the stuff that has become the backbone of American life. When the middle Class feels poor, the poor have little chance for change, or even recognition. What is the American Dream of the well-to-do built upon
