Everything that humans hear is in the form of waves (波).Just as the eye sees light wares in the form of colors, the ear and the eye Curs these different waves into signals that the brain (大脑) can make sense of.
The ears and brain have an Amazing amities to recognize(识别)particular sounds. For example, a mother often can tell when her baby is crying even if there are other crying babies in the same room. This is because the sound of her baby’s cry has special meaning to her and the brain has recorded is importance.
The ability to recognize sounds improves with experiences. As the brain receives information about sounds from day to day, it stores the information in its memory. When the brain hears new sounds, it gives meaning to them based on the information already in the memory. This is why certain words or songs can make a person happy. Often it is not the words or songs themselves that cause this feeling. The sounds are connected to happy memories for that person.
After hearing process controlled by the brain is to decide where a sound is coming from. One ear is usually closer to the source (来源) of a sound than the other ear is. Sound waves are stronger when they reach the ear that is closer. They also reach the closer ear first. The brain recognizes these differences and uses them to decide the location of the source of the sound.

| No one knows when the first house was built and who was the first one to built the house. But the houses are changing all the time. ( )1. What will the house of the future look like? Could it have gardens on its walls, or a pool with fish for dinner? Architects (建筑学家) believe that they may come true one day. The only thing for sure is the houses will be as green as possible in the future. ( )2. Many architects in the world would like to build a house like a leaf, the surface of the house collects sunlight during the day. The energy can be used to heat water, produce electricity, and even make fresh air for the room. The"root"(根) of the house is deep under the ground. It uses the soil to control the room's temperature. ( )3. Like a lizard (蜥蜴), changing color with the weather is the most important design of a lizard house. When it's in the bright sun, the cover of the house will turn white to protect it from strong heat. During dark days, it turns dark and takes in as much light and heat as possible to produce energy. ( )4. This design is perhaps for the future of food. It has a garden on the outside wall of the house. People can plant tomatoes, carrots and green tea on them. So every morning, you just need to walk outside and collect your meals. ( )5. Looking to the future isn't the only way to be green. Sometimes, the old ways of building houses can also help cut down energy use. For example, a chimney (烟囱) can be a useful air conditioner because it is easier for hot air to run out of the chimney. | |
