Honolulu, Hawaii, recently passed a law making it unlawful to look down at a phone
while crossing the street. It is the first big US city with a law like this. Do you think more

As humans, we can make our own decision. I’m not saying it’s safe, but we don’t need the
government to babysit us like our parents. After all, we are grown-ups. If we want to learn to
makegooddecisions,thegovernmentneedstostoptellinguswhattodo.
—AndrewfromOregon
This law makes sense. If all the states pass such a law,some people might not like it. But is
there really a way to pleaseeveryone?This would notbe forfun. Itwould be forthe safety of all
Americans.

People do many things that may hurt themselves but are not against the law, such as riding
bikes,drivingcars,andswimming.Thelistgoesonandon.Peoplemightgethurtfromlookingat

A recent video made the rounds to thousands of users for its argument: “Why you MUST
throwawayyourAirPods.”Init,theuserarguedthatwirelessearbuds(无线耳机)“sitinsideyour
headandcookyourbrain”becauseoftheradiation(辐射)theygiveoff.Similarvideoshavebeen
found across different social media platforms, warning that wireless earbuds can cause cancer,
memoryloss,tirednessandotherhealthproblems.
A few social platforms have removed these videos, stating they spread medical
misinformation. But is there any truth to these warnings? Are you risking your health for the
convenienceofwirelessheadphones,orareyouincreasingyourriskforbraincancer?
“This is a very common worry and a question that I hear often from my patients: They want
to know if their phones or earbuds caused their brain cancer,” says Dr Naveed Wagle, a
neuro-oncologist. “The short answer is it’s probably not the only cause,” Dr Wagle says, “but we
don’thaveenoughinformationyettosayforsureortoknowifit’sacause.”
While wireless technology has been there since the late 1990s, wireless earbuds have only
come on the scene in the past few years. This short period means that there’s a lot of scientists
who still just don’t know about the long-term health influences, especially for people who use
themforhourseveryday.
Here’s what the United States Federal Communications Commission (FCC) says about
wirelessearbudsandyourhealth:“Atpresent,noscientificevidence(证据)suggestsaconnection
between wireless earbuds and cancer or other illnesses. Those suggesting the possible risks of
using wireless earbuds agree that more and longer-term studies should explore whether there is a

Have you ever felt full after a meal but still wanted dessert (甜点)? Or taken a cookie just
becauseit was there? Many of us find it hardto refuse sugar. In fact, a study showed that 94% of
lab rats preferred sweetened water to cocaine (可卡因). While sugar is not as harmful, it

It’snaturalforourbodiestoaskforsugar.However,unlikefruits andvegetables,somefoods
have high amounts of sugar added to them.According to Dr. Vera Tarman, this can make eating

What’s worse, it can keep your blood sugar high, making you feel tired and unwell. To break the
habit, Dr. Tarman suggests stopping sugar completely rather than slowly cutting down on it. The

Many of us have gotten into the habit of listening to podcasts, audiobooks and other online
content at increased playback speeds. 36 One survey of students in California, for
example, showed that 89% changed the playback speed of online lectures, while there are plenty
ofarticlesabouthowcommonspeedyviewinghasbecome.
It is easy to think of some advantages to watching things more quickly. It can let you enjoy
more content in the same time, or go through the same piece of content several times to get the
most out of it. 37 It might free up time for consolidating (巩固) knowledge or doing
practice tests. Watching quickly is also a good way of making sure you focus on what you’re up
to.
38 It turns out that there are one or two of those as well. Researchers point out that
processing (处理) speech information in humans includes three steps of memory: receiving the
information, storing it, and later understanding it. During the process, the brain needs time to
collectthecontinuousspeech,dealwithwordsinrealtimeandthenunderstandtheirmeanings.

Incoming information is stored for a certain time in our memory, waiting to be reorganized

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Last Saturday I received a call from my close friend, Peter. He asked me to help with his
group who provided musical performances at the local hospitals. At first I was unwilling to go
becauseofmyunfinishedhomework,butIwasfinallytalkedintohelpingoutthisonetime,which
turnedouttobeanunforgettableandfruitfulexperience.
That evening, I was picked up by Peter and went to a local hospital with him, taking my
guitarandhopingIcouldsingsomesolosongswithhismusicalgroup.
Anextremelylargehospitalcameintooursight.Whenguidedintothehall,wewereshocked
to find so many patients and staff there. What we saw next aroused our sympathy. Some patients
were in wheelchairs or with their arms in bandages, while others were with their drips attached.
Some faces were rather pale; some wore worried expressions; some walked as fast as they could.
Maybe their days seemed to be dull during the period of their treatment, so our coming brought
some color into their lives. Seeing their happy faces, I thought it was worthwhile to join Peter's
group.
Among the audience, I spotted one particular young girl aged about 16, who was wearing a
head scarf and appeared to be more delighted than the others. When we started our performance,
excitement filled the hall. Peter mentioned to me that the young girl I had noticed earlier was
singing along with all our songs quietly to herself. At a break, out of curiosity, I asked one of the
nursesaboutthegirl.Shesaidthatthegirlsufferedseriousburnsandwasundertreatmentandthat
