Life gets noisier every day and very few people can be free from noise of some sort or another. It doesn’t matter where you live—in the middle of a modern city, or a faraway village—the chances that you will be disturbed by jet aero planes, transistor radios, oil-powered engines, etc. are almost everywhere.We seem to be getting used to noise, too. Some people feel quite lonely without background music while they are working.

Scientific tests have shown that total silence can be very frightening experience for human beings. However, some people enjoy listening to pop music which is very loud, and this can do harm to their eardrums(耳鼓).The noise level in some disco is far above the usual safety level for heavy industrial areas.

One recent report about noise and concentration(专心) suggested that although a lot of people say that any noise disturbs their concentration, what really affects their ability to concentrate is a change in the level of noise. It goes on to say that a background noise, which doesn’t change too much (music, for example) may even help people to concentrate.

Not too long ago ,an incident that happened at Walt Disney touched me greatly.A guest  36     out of our Polynesian Village resort(度假胜地)at Walt Disney was asked how she   37     her visit.She told the front-desk clerk she had had a (n)     38    vacation ,but was heartbroken about    39     several rolls of Kodak color film she had not yet    40    .At that moment she was particularly     41    over the loss of the pictures she had shot at our Polynesian Luau ,     42    this was a memory she especially treasured.

Now ,please understand that we have no written service rules    43    lost photos in the park.   44    ,the clerk at the front desk   45     Disney’s idea of caring for our    46    .She asked the woman to leave her a couple rolls of    47     film ,promising she would take care of the rest of our show at Polynesian Luau.
