At night，you fall asleep while listening to beautiful music.In the morning，you are woken up by the singing of birds outside.You can enjoy all of these things because of one important organ-the ears.
    You may wonder：How do the ears work？The ear has three different parts：the outer ear，the middle ear，and the inner ear.The outer ear is the part you can see.It collects sound around you.The sound then
travels through the middle ear，the inner ear and then to your brain.
    Your ears never stop working，even when you are asleep!Your ears continue hearing sounds，but your brain just ignores（忽略） them.That's why you might sometimes wake up suddenly in the middle of the night---your brain heard something but your brain didn't pay attention to it since you were asleep.
    But ears do more than hear.They help you keep your balance，too.In the inner ear，there are organs that are filled with liquid（液體） covered in small hairs When you move your head，the liquid and hairs move，too.They send messages to your brain about the position of your head.
    More surprisingly，ears even help with tasting food.Of course，you don't actually taste food with your ears.But there are nerves（神經） running through the middle ear that connect the tongue to the brain.
    If something wrong happens to your ears，you might have a hard time telling different flavors apart according to People's Daily.
    The ears are truly important organs with many functions.Everyone should make sure to protect their ears as well as they can.

1．The new round of Palestinian-Israeli conflict （巴以沖突） has lasted for some time，as a result，hundreds of thousands of Palestinians have to leave their homes and thousands of them have died.What is worrying is that this conflict，which can be traced back （追溯）more than 70 years ago，is becoming worse and worse.
   Now，the conflict is happening in the Gaza Strip.Over 2 million Palestinians live there.In order to eat away at Palestinian lend and prevent Palestinians，Israel has built a long wall，which is 8 meters high.Anyone who breaks into the area will be shot to death.
   In 1947，a group of Jews from Europe arrived at a port in Palestine.These Jews held up a sign，which read， "The Germans have destroyed our homeland，please do not destroy our hope."
   Arabs （阿拉伯人）took pity on the Jews' experiences during World War 2，they welcomed this group of newcomers who had come from faraway places.But they didn't expect that these Jews came here to build a Jewish country.
   After realizing what the Jewish people wanted，Arab leaders said， "We do feel sorry for the hardships that Jews experienced during the war，but it was not we Arabs who caused their suffering.Why should they come and seize （占領） our land？"
   However，with the strong support of the United States and the Soviet Union，Jews built a state of Israel though Arabs were against it.Later，conflicts often broke out between the two sides.
   It's worth mentioning that today，the area of Israel is far larger than Palestinian's.The Jewish people have seized most of Palestinian land.
   The Palestinians received unfair treatment.They were forced to leave their own homes.Most of them can only live in refugee（難民） camps in the Gaza Strip.What's even worse，these Palestinians live a hard and hopeless life and are unable to make their voices heard by the outside world.

（1）When was the first Palestinian-Israeli conflict？

（2）Who destroyed the Jews' homeland during World War Ⅱ？

（3）What did the Jews want to build after they arrived in Palestine？

（4）Which country's area is smaller，Israel's or Palestine's？

（5）What do you think of a war？（請自擬一句話作答）

2．Do you know where J．K．Rowling wrote the Harry Potter books？She wrote the first book in a coffee shop．Was it because she felt more creative when working there？The answer might be yes．
   Scientists found that moderate（適度的）noise can make people more creative，The New York Times reported．
   Scientists did tests on students．They divided them into four groups．They then asked the students to do certain tasks involving creative thinking．But each group did the task with different volumes（音量）of background noise．They found that students did best when working under moderate noise-70 decibels（分貝）．This is about the same volume of background noise in a cafe．Students did worse in low noise （50 dB）．This is the volume of a quiet room．They did the poorest when in a high-noise （85 dB） environment．This is the noise level in a factory．
   Moderate noise can distract（分心）people just enough so that they think more creatively． "It helps you think outside the box，" Raci Mehta，a lead researcher in the study，said to the Business Standard．On the one hand，working in a very quiet place can strengthen our focus．But it also stops us from thinking abstractly（抽象）．
   "This is why if you are too focused on a problem and you can't solve it，" said Mehta， "you leave it for some time and then come back to it and you'll get the solution．"
   However，the scientists said that when you need to do detailed things，like proofreading（校對）a paper，a quiet place is better than a noisy one．

（1）The first paragraph tells us that

．
A．J．K．Rowling likes drinking coffee
B．working in a coffee shop might help people become creative
C．the best novels are born in coffee shops
D．moderate noise makes people creative
（2）

D．0 dB
（3）Working in a very quiet place can

．
A．help people think outside the box
B．make people think abstractly

D．help people focus on their work
（4）The main idea of the passage is

．
A．how to work under a moderate noise level
B．why J．K．Rowling likes to write stories in a coffee shop
C．why moderate noise is good for creative thinking
D．how scientists tested students' learning abilities

3．Have read or heard of the sad love story between Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu？Can you imagine the two singing opera in English instead of speaking poetic Chinese？
    Jia and Lin are two characters from the classic Chinese novel A Dream of Red Mansions （《紅樓夢》），written by Cao Xueqin（1715-1763）.Now the book has been made into an English-language opera.After being performed in San Francisco，US，the performance came to Beijing，Changsha and Wuhan in 2017.
    Many of the opera's creators have backgrounds in both Chinese and American cultures，including the director and playwrights.Their understanding of both cultures helped them change a Chinese classic into a foreign-language opera.
    The book，which covers the rise and fall of the Jia family，has 120 chapters and hundreds of characters.But opera writer David Henry Hwang cut down the number of characters to just seven.Hwang，a Chinese-American，focused on the love story between Jia and Lin and tried to write a heartbroking tragedy（悲劇） that everyone would understand.
    The art director Timmy Yip，from Hong Kong，tried to help foreign people understand the characters using costumes and stage settings（布景）.He compared Lin to water and gave her a light green costume.When Lin showed up on stage，there was usually water around her on the stage.
    The creators considered it to be a meaningful job to introduce a Chinese classic to Western audiences.Hwang told China Daily he was happy to "have made a contribution to the land where my parents were born."
