Revolutionary TV Ears
TV Ears has helped thousands of people with various degrees of hearing loss hear the television clearly without turning up the volume (音量) and now it's better and more affordable than ever! With TV Ears wireless technology, you set your own headset volume, while other TV listeners hear the television at a volume level that's comfortable for them. You can even listen through the headset only and put the TV on mute (静音) if the situation calls for a quiet environment—maybe the baby is sleeping. Or perhaps you are the only one who is interested in listening to the ballgame.
TV Ears patented technology includes a revolutionary noise reduction ear tip, not used in any other commercially available headset. This tip reduces outside noise so that television dialogue is clear and understandable. Get the technology that has proven to help the most demanding customers. That's why TV Ears has earned the trust and confidence of audiologists (听觉学家) nationwide as well as world­famous doctors.

2.[2015·安徽黄山二次质检]    Teamwork is all about working together to achieve a common goal or purpose. Is teamwork out of date? Why is it so hard to effectively conduct teamwork in those days?
One way we employ teamwork in everyday lives is by becoming a parent. It is parents' job to teach their children the basic skills and give them the knowledge they need to be successful in life. This, to me, requires teamwork.For example, the mother teaches her children manners and good health skills, while the father teaches them how to catch a ball or drive a car. However, in today's society, we find that more and more parents are feeling that this teamwork is a one­sided thing. According to a report, there are 13.7 million single parents raising their children in the US and this could be due to the fact that parent
s don't take responsibility for their children, so they leave one parent to do it alone. This is a sad fact, and it reflects that effective teamwork is losing ground in the parenting aspect of our everyday lives.
Another place where teamwork affects us greatly is in our jobs. It doesn't matter if you have a small company or a large company:if you have at least one employee and yourself, then teamwork works. I have noticed that with the current economic recession (衰退), people are racing to grab jobs but the quality of people's work has gone down greatly. It just appears to me that people do not take pride in their work any more. They get to work as fast as they can, just to receive the paycheck, but their quality standards fly_right_out_of_the_window. So I think teamwork is losing ground in the workforce.

Of course, politics is only one type of humor. Social humor helps people through the twists and turns of the human condition. American pop culture promotes an unhealthy self­image. On the topic of self­image, Hari Kondabolu stands out. He has a joke about the popular musical group “The Pussycat Dolls”, describing their hit song Don't Cha as a negative representation of women.

The analysis comes just two years after Australian researchers found that people who said they watched TV for more than four hours a day were 46% more likely to die of any cause than people who said they spent less than two hours a day watching TV. Those watching TV for more than four hours a day were also 80% more likely to die of cardiovascular (心血管的) disease. “Sedentary (久坐的) behavior is something we need to pay attention to, beyond telling people to get 30 minutes of activity a day,” said Peter T.Katzmarzyk, one of the lead researchers. But while the evidence of illnesses is increasing, it remains difficult for many people to find time to get on their feet, especially if they do desk jobs.
