　　Removing foreign objects from ears and noses costs England almost £3m a year, a study suggests.[Q16]Children were responsible for the vast majority of cases - 95% of objects removed from noses and 85% from ears. Every year, an average of 1,218 nose and 2,479 ear removals took place between 2010 and 2016.According to England's Hospital Episode Statistics, children aged one to four were the most likely to need help from doctors for a foreign object in their nose. Five to nine year olds come to the hospital with something in their ear the most. Jewelry items accounted for up to 40% of cases in both the ears and noses of children. [Q17]Paper and plastic toys were the items removed next most from noses. Cotton buds and pencils were also found in ears.J7a曹操读书网

　　According to the study, the occurrence of foreign objects in children is generally attributed to curiosity. Children have an impulse to explore their noses and ears. This results in the accidental entry of foreign objects. [Q18]Any ear, nose and throat surgeon has many weird stories about wonderful objects found in the noses and ears of children and adults. Batteries can pose a particular danger. In all cases, prevention is better than cure. This is why many toys contain warnings about small parts. Recognizing problems early and seeking medical attention is important.J7a曹操读书网

　　Good morning, I’d like to talk to you about my charity ReBicycle. But before that, let me introduce someone. This is Leila Rahimi.

After a few months of being quite down and unhappy, she was invited to join a local bike club.At this time, ReBicycle got involved and gave Leila a second-hand bicycle.[Q19]In weeks, her depression had begun to ease as she cycled. The bicycle totally changed her life, giving her hope and a true feeling of freedom.J7a曹操读书网

　　To date, ReBicycle has donated more than 200 bikes to those in need, and is now expanding bike-riding lessons as demand soars.[Q20]With a bike, you can travel farther but for almost no cost. The three hours a day that used to spend on walking to and from English language lessons has been reduced to just one hour.Our bike-riding lessons are so successful that we are urgently looking for more volunteers. [Q21]Learning to ride a bike is almost always more difficult as an adult, and this can take days and weeks, rather than hours. So, if any of you have some free time during the weekend, please come join us at ReBicycle and make a difference in someone’s life.J7a曹操读书网

　　Passage 3J7a曹操读书网

　　Thanks to the International Space Station we know quite a bit about the effects of low gravity on the human body, but NASA scientists want to learn more. To that end, they have been studying how other species deal with low gravity, specifically focusing on mice（Q22）. The results are both interesting and humorous.J7a曹操读书网

　　The scientists first send some mice in a specially designed cage to the International Space Station. The cage allowed them to study the behavior of the mice remotely from Earth via video. As you noticed in the video, the mice definitely seem uncomfortableat the beginning of the experiment. They move around clumsily, drifting within the small confines of the cage and do their best to figure out which way is up, but without success. (Q23) However, it’s not long before the mice begin to catch on. They adapt remarkably well to their new environment and even using the lack of gravity to their advantage as they push themselves around the cage.J7a曹操读书网

　　That’s when things really get wild.The 11th dayof the experiment shows the mice are not just dealing with the gravity change but actually seem to be enjoying it. (Q24) Several of the mice are observed running around the cage walls.J7a曹操读书网

　　The scientists wanted to see whether the mice would continue doing the same kinds of activities they were observed doing on Earth.The study showed thatthe mice kept much of their routines intact, including cleaning themselves and eating when hungry. (Q25)J7a曹操读书网
