[解析]本文介紹聲音與人們的感受。科學家用分貝來測量聲音的高低。

1. C根據上下文可知下句句意：你聽到了什么？故選C

2. A B、C、D不能單獨在此構成謂語動詞，故選A. 一些聲音可能是噪音。

3. B A. 這樣的；B. 例如；C. 像……那樣的；D. —些 例子，根據下文可知選 B.

4. D too,as well和also用于肯定句和疑問句，too 和as well多用于口語，一般放在句末；而also多 用于書面語，一般放在句中與動詞連用。also,as well,too ,用于肯定句，also常用于be動詞、情態 動詞和助動詞之后，行為動詞之前；as welhtoo用 于句末;根據前面謂語動詞is可知選 D.

5. B固定結構what happen to sb誰發生了什么事？ 選 B.

6. A 固定結構 have trouble (in) doing sth 在方面有困難，故選A.

7. D根據題意，連續的大的噪音能引起聽力損失。 故選 D.

8. A過去分詞作定語表示發生過的，被動的關系。 現在分詞表示主動地正在進行的動作。B、D選項 不能用作定語。根據題意，a unit of measure是 call的動作對象，故選A.

9. B根據題意，說話聲在40到65分貝之間。故選B.

10. C這個程度的噪音引起最大的聽力損失。故選C.
