Ear Discomfort When Flying By Robert James It is quite widespread to respond passengers

complaints of ear discomfort when flying or right away after takeoff. Most complaints arise in the time of takeoff or landing. The air pressure inside the passenger cabin may cause your ears to pop. This could lead, at landing or takeoff, to temporary hearing loss or simply ear discomfort. These side effects usually last only while you are flying and, after a short time, should get back to what is normal for you. They result from a difference between air pressure in the part of your ear called the "middle ear" and the atmospheric pressure of the plane. You can do a number of things to reduce the effects of flying on hearing. Yawn, chew gum, or suck on a hard candy. Keep swallowing, using a glass of water or another drink, but not alcohol. Do this regularly, every 15 to 30 seconds as necessary. Some people have reported that earplugs also help but, so far, there has been no medical study to prove that earplugs really help. You are going to benefit from postponing your flight in the event you are suffering from either infected ears or sinuses, allergies or from the feeling of a stuffed up head. If you have to travel, ask your family doctor or local pharmacist for advice and about decongestants you can use. Many doctors recommend that you use a decongestant spray about 20 minutes before you fly. It is important not to use the spray for more than five days continuously.

What is the subject of the article？

A．The side effects of some medicines.

B．The causes of hearing loss.

C．The function of the ears.

D．The effects of flying on hearing.

Since pleasure is the first good and natural to us, for this very reason we do not choose

every pleasure, but sometimes we pass over many pleasures, when greater discomfort accrues to us as the result of them; and similarly we think many pains better than pleasures, since a greater pleasure comes to us when we have endured pains for a long time. Every pleasure then because of its natural kinship to us is good, yet not every pleasure is to be chosen; even as every pain is also an evil, yet not all are always of a nature to be avoided. Yet by a scale of comparison and by the consideration of advantages and disadvantages we must form. our judgement on all these matters. For the good on certain occasions we treat as bad, and conversely the bad as good.

We must consider that of desires some are natural, others vain, and of the natural some are necessary and others merely natural; and of the necessary some are necessary for happiness, others for the repose of the body, and others for very life.

Unhappiness comes either through fear or through vain and unbridled desire; but if a man curbs these, he can win for himself' the blessedness of understanding. Of desires, all that do not lead to a sense of pain, if they are not satisfied, are not necessary, but involve a craving which is easily dispelled, when the object is hard to procure or they seem likely to produce harm. Wherever in the case of desires which are natural, but do not lead to a sense of pain, if they are not fulfilled, the effort is intense, such pleasures are due to idle imagination, and it is not owing to their own nature that they fail to be dispelled, but owing to the empty imaginings of the man.

The disturbance of the soul cannot be ended nor true joy created either by the possession of the greatest wealth or by honour and respect in the eyes of the mob or by anything else that is associated with causes of unlimited desires. We must not violate nature, but obey her; and we shah obey her if we fulfil the necessary desires and also the natural, if they bring no harm to us, but sternly reject the harmful. The man who follows nature and not vain opinions is independent in all things. For in reference to unlimited desires even the greatest wealth is not riches but poverty.

Insofar as you are in difficulties, it is because you forget nature; for you create for yourself unlimited fears and desires. It is better for you to be free of fear lying upon a pallet, than to have a golden couch and a rich table and be full of trouble.

What does "greater discomfort accrues to us" in Paragraph 1 mean here？

A．We get greater discomfort over a period of time.

B．We are tortured by greater discomfort.

C．Greater discomfort exists in our body.

D．Greater discomfort makes us miserable.

听力原文：M: Miss Moor, nowadays more and more Chinese students are keen on going abroad to

pursue their study. Most of them imagine the life in the new country to be wonderful and exciting, but is it true all the time？

W: Some cross-cultural specialists say that it is not easy to adjust to life in a new culture. People often feel uncomfortable in a new cultural environment.

M: Have you any personal experiences of it when abroad or while in contact with foreigners？

W: Certainly. I have lived in many different countries. A simple example would be the unfamiliarity ! feel when visiting London. The traffic patterns there are so different — Londoners drive on the left side of the road; we drive on the right. In fact, we can experience discomfort even within regions of our own country, and the degree of discomfort an individual experiences depends on how great the cultural differences are, and how well we prepare ourselves for it.

M: Is it possible for us to be prepared for discomfort？

W: Sure. Discomfort can be reduced by study and preparation. Studying the language, history and customs of the new culture is helpful. One' of my students, for example, has studied English for several years. Additionally, he has spent hours watching American television and films, from which he has gathered a wide variety of idiomatic expressions. Also, the programs have introduced him to some aspects of' American daily life. From his experience, it appears that advance preparation can reduce the degree of discomfort. And it is also important for us to learn to be more tolerant and understanding when we encounter people and customs which are "foreign" to us.

What's the cross-cultural specialists' view about the difficulty in adjusting to life in a new culture？

A．Extremely difficult.

B．Not difficult.

C．Extremely easy.

D．Not easy.
