Everything that humans hear is in the form of waves(波). Just as the eye sees light waves in the form of colors, the ear hears sound waves in the form of noises. The ear and the eye turn these different waves into signals that the brain(大脑) can make sense of.
The ears and brain have an amazing ability 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 its 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.
Another 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.

a. The ears receive the sound waves.
b. The mother recognizes her baby’s cry.
c. The baby’s turn the sound waves into signals.
d. The baby’s cry travels in the form of sound waves.

If you are driving out of Montpellier, a city in France, please look out for the signboard(路标) with the words “Millau Viaduct(米洛高架桥)”. Turn towards it and get ready to take the drive of a lifetime.
The Millau Viaduct is the world’s tallest bridge. It is 343 meters high and about 2.5 kilometers long. The bridge is between Paris and Montpellier, and it was built in 2004 at the cost of $530 million. And why was it built?
For years, the French government thought over the problem of traffic congestion for people travelling from Paris to the south of France. Many ideas were suggested, but one idea was finally accepted. Instead of choosing to build a highway that went
through the hilly(多山) south of France, they decided to build a bridge over the Tarn River. This bridge would not just be like any other bridge. It would start at the top of one hill and connect to another hill on the other side of the river. This bridge would shorten the highway by 60 kilometers. It would save people’s time and money. _____________________
Engineers had to find out a way to build the bridge quickly, over 300 meters up in the air and about 2.52kilometers long across the river. It was very hard, but finally engineers succeeded in finding a quickest way to build it. It is very convenient for people to travel and it has been consistently(一致地)ranked as one of the great engineering achievements of all time.
