The 74 people who made no comment on noise and the 19 who 3 that the ward was not noisy were either in unskilled work, often factories, or the wives of unskilled workers living a comparatively communal life. There is also a suggestion 4 noise is related to severity of illness, and resultant length of stay in 5 . Noise that may not 6 a seriously ill patient because of his condition, begins to irritate as he 7 strength. It would not be profitable to list 8 by patients, but it would perhaps be 9 to look at what were broadly thought of as "hospital noises", that is, noise inherent in a 10 situation and accepted, if not 11 by patients; and then to consider the " avoidable noises"—those made through, perhaps, 12 of thought or care. Because of the structure of the wards in which the patients were nursed, 13 to the noise of the other members of the community was 14 and accepted by all patients as such, however much it may have disturbed them both 15 and emotionally.

Many patients express the 18 that they might, some day, be responsible for the 19 of others in a similar way.

There are 110 million Brazilians. How many of them are football fans 100 million! All of them think that they know all about football. This makes life very difficult for the Brazilian team manager. When things go bad for the Brazilian team the newspapers would demand that the team manager should leave his job. "If we win, they put me in heaven," as a manager once said, "If we lose, they put me in hell. " (2) You can’t escape football in Brazil. There are football matches on every street and beach. On television, the results of football matches come before the main news programs. There are six television channels in Rio de Janeiro. On Sundays each channel shows a different football match. (3) Brazil is not the richest country in the world, but the government spends lots of money on football. It cost more than one billion pounds to prepare for the 1978 World Cup. That’s 10 pounds for every Brazilian man, woman, and child. "And many Brazilians don’t earn as much as 10 pounds a week. Is it worth it (4) "Brazil must have a great football team," says one journalist, "If it costs one billion pounds, that’s all right. If the government doesn’t give us a good team, then it will become unpopular.. Football is more than a game in Brazil." (5) Football is more than a game in Brazil. This is certainly true in its largest city, Sao Paulo. The most popular team is Corinthians. Corinthians’ fans are the most loyal and emotional in Brazil. When Corinthians win, production in the Sao Paulo car factories increases by fifteen percent. When they lose, it drops. At one time Corinthians won the national championship for the first time, fans danced and sang in the streets for four days. (6) Why are people so loyal to one football team What makes a football fan One man says: ” Without Corinthians my life would be sad. Corinthians bring some joy and excitement into my life. We all need that, don’t we" Football Violence (7) Football fans in Brazil are loyal to their team. They cheer when their team wins, they cry when their team loses. But they don’t fight. Football in Brazil is for the whole family. Men bring their wives and children to football matches. They know there will be no trouble. Their family will be safe. (8) However, in many other countries it’s different. Many people don’t want to go and see a football match because they’re afraid of violence. The violence occurs both on the field and off it. Why (9) Football is a hard game. You have to be fit and strong to play it. Often you have to fight to get the ball and then you have to fight to keep it. Of course, players get excited when they are playing football. The difference between winning and losing a game can be great. Perhaps the manager tells his player before a game: "If you win this, you will get one thousand pounds each. ff you lose, you’ll get nothing. " What would you do if you were playing in a game like that Let’s say you’re running towards the goal with a good chance of scoring. Another player holds you back or kicks you. Of course you’re angry. You want to kick the other player or hit him. Then players on both sides join in and a fight starts. (10) Fighting on the football field often starts fighting among the football supporters watching the game. The trouble doesn’t only happen at the football ground itself. A few years ago in Britain, a group of Leeds United supporters and a group of Sunderland were not even playing each other that day! (11) Why do football supporters behave in this way First of all, most of the football fans are young. When their team is playing home, they go with their friends—always to the same part of the ground. They all wear their team’s colors—on hats, scarves, and badges. They cheer their favorite players. They shout, sing songs and wave their scarves. When they are with their friends, everything is all right. The trouble starts when one group of supporter tries to attack another group. (12) The team supporters may attack the home fans. They may try to get into the home supporters’ favorite place. The home supporters fight back, the trouble spreads and the police try to stop the fighting. Next day the newspapers scream: FANS INVADE FIELD: POLICE ARREST 50. (13) This kind of violence is not new, of course. Writers in Roman times, 1,500 years ago, described fights between groups supporting different chariot(战车) racers. One group was called the Blues, the other the Greens. The Greens and the Blues used to sing songs about each other, fight at chariot races, and run through the streets smashing up shops—just the kind of things that newspapers describe today. Corinthians’ fans are the most loyal and emotional in Brazil, which leads to ______ in the Sao Paulo car factories.

For centuries man dreamed of achieving vertical height. In 400 A. D. Chinese children played with a fan-like toy that spun upwards and fell back to earth as rotation ceased. Leonardo da Vinci conceived the first mechanical apparatus, called a "Helix", which could carry a man straight up, but this was only a design and was never tested. The ancient dream was finally realized in 1940 when a Russian immigrant, an aeronautical engineer, piloted a strange-looking craft of steel tubing with a rotating fan on top. It rose awkwardly and vertically into the air from a standing start, hovered a few feet above the ground, went sideways and backwards, and then settled back to earth. That vehicle was called a helicopter. Imaginations were fired. Men dreamed of commuting to work in their own personal helicopter. Every man would have one in his backyard. People anticipated that vertical flight transports would carry millions of passengers as do the airliners of today. Such fantastic expectations were not fulfilled. The helicopter has now become an extremely versatile machine. It excels in military missions, carrying troops, guns and strategic instruments where other aircraft cannot go. Corporations use them as airborne offices, many metropolitan areas use them in police work, construction and logging companies employ them in various advantageous ways, engineers use them for site selection and surveying, and oil companies use them as the best way to make offshore and remote work stations accessible to crews and supplies. Any urgent mission to a hard-to-get-to place is a likely task for a helicopter. Among their other multitude of uses, they deliver people across town, fly to and from airports, assist in rescue work, and aid in the search for missing or wanted persons. What is said about the development of the helicopter

A. Helicopters have only been worked on by man since 1940.
B. An Englishman was the first to achieve flight in a helicopter.
C. Helicopters were considered more dangerous than the early airplanes.
D. Some people thought they would become widely used by the average individual.
