Experiments have proved that in noisy situations (even temporary ones), people may act more irritably and less cooperatively; in more permanent noisy situations, many people cannot work hard, and they suffer from severe anxiety as well as other psychological problems. However, psychologists distinguish between "sound" and "noise". "Sound" is measured physically in decibels. "Noise" cannot be measured in thesame way because it refers to the psychological effect of sound and its level of "intensity" depends on the situation. Thus, for passengers at an airport who expect to hear airplanes taking off and landing, there may be a lot of sound, but not much noise (that is, they are not bothered by the noise). By contrast, if you are at a concert and two people behind you are whispering, you feel they are talking noisily even if there is not much sound. You notice the noise because it affects you psychologically. Both sound and noise can have negative effects, but what is most important is if the person has control over the sound. People walking down the street with earphones, listening to music that they enjoy, are receiving a lot of decibels of sound, but they are probably happy hearing sounds which they control. On the other hand, people in the street without earphones must tolerate a lot of noise which they have no control over. It is noise pollution that we need to control in order to help people live more happily.46. According to the passage, people _____.A) can not work better in a noisy situationB) will suffer from complete deafness because of noise pollutionC) can be psychologically affected by working in very noise factoriesD) may cooperate well in a noisy surrounding47."Sound”, as defined by the psychologist, _____.A) can be measured in the same way that "noise" is measuredB) may be extremely harmful to healthC) is not at all different from "noise"D) can be measured by machines48. People waiting at an airport _____.A) enjoy hearing airplanes taking off and landingB) are usually not troubled by the noiseC) can easily tell sound from noiseD) are often physically affected by the noise49. People enjoy listening to music,_____.A) though they are receiving a lot of decibels of sound in factB) because it does not have any negative effectC) because they do not have to tolerate the noise around themD) even though it is sometimes unpleasant hearing strange sounds50. We can conclude from the passage that we need to control noise pollution if _____.A) we want to stay both psychologically and physically healthyB) we don't want to be physically dentC) we want to cooperate wellD) we don't want to be anxiousPassage ThreeQuestions 51 to 55 are based on the following passage.Representatives of Callahan Media Associates (CMA) announced today that the news agency would attempt to buy the National Broadcasting System (NBS), the second largest television and radio network in the United States. Ronald Callahan, son of Jessica Callahan, who started CMA, told reporters that he expects his company's offering price to be high enough to win out over other offers. He indicated that NBS executives had already discussed reorganization plans that might result from a CMA takeover.A native of the United Kingdom, Jessica Callahan began to buy newspapers, magazines, and radio stations in the United States eight years ago, and CMA now owns or controls more than fifteen news organizations here. Before she became a leader in media in this country, she had established her family-owned company as one of the most important forces in British TV and newspapers. Callahan started her news career more than twenty-five years ago, and she had worked as a reporter on three different papers when she took the job of editor of England's Birmingham Herald (伯明汉先驱报), a newspaper that had been experiencing financial difficulties for several years. Her success in raising the news reporting standards as well as making the Herald into a profitable business gained Callahan the attention and respect of the British news establishment. Bythe time she was 35, she had become a publisher and started CMA, which is now one of the largest media organizations in the world.Callahan had never visited the United States before she came to Miami and became the publisher of the Miami Journal almost eight years ago, but she had been reading the newspaper for several years, and she said that she liked the paper's style. After she had owned the Journal for just over a year, she bought a small radio station in Georgia, and in the next five years she went on to acquire news organizations in several different parts of the country.If CMA becomes the owner of NBS, for the first time it will have control over a nationwide TV network. In an interview last week, Philip Rosen, the president of NBS, said that he was not very happy about the purchase. He agreed that Callahan and CMA had done a lot to help American newspapers become more financially secure, but he expressed fears that the new management was going to make news coverage on NBS irresponsible. He stated that he hoped he could remain with NBS but said that this might not be possible.51. The writer thinks that CMA's offer to buy the National Broadcasting System isprobably _____.A) The only one B) a good oneC) unacceptably low D) of great competition52.
