【推荐2】It’s now a lot easier — and cheaper — for many hard-of-hearing Americans to get help. Hearing aids can now be sold without a prescription from a specialist. Over-the-counter, or OTC, hearing aids started hitting the market in October at prices that can be thousands of dollars lower than prescription hearing aids. About 30 million people in the United States deal with hearing loss, according to the Food and Drug Administration. But only about 20% of those who could use a hearing aid seek help. Here’s a closer look:
Who might be helped:
The FDA approved OTC hearing aids for adults with mild-to-moderate hearing loss. That can include people who have trouble hearing phone calls or who turn up the TV volume loud enough that others complain. It also can include people who have trouble understanding group conversations in noisy places. OTC hearing aids aren’t intended for people with deeper hearing loss, which may include those who have trouble hearing louder noises, like power tools and cars.
Hearing test:
Before over-the-counter, you usually needed to get your hearing tested and buy hearing aids from a specialist. That’s no longer the case. But it can be hard for people to measure their own hearing. You can still choose to see a specialist just for that test, which is often covered by insurance, and then buy the aids on your own. There also are a number of apps and questionnaires available to determine whether you need help.
Who’s selling:
Several major retailers now offer OTC hearing aids online and on store shelves. Walgreens drugstores, for example, are selling Lexie Lumen hearing aids nationwide for $799. Walmart offers OTC hearing aids ranging from about $200 to $1,000 per pair. Its health centers will provide hearing tests. The consumer electronics chain Best Buy has OTC hearing aids available online and in nearly 300 stores.
The cost:
Most OTC hearing aids will cost between $500 and $1,500 for a pair, though some may run up to $3,000.
1. Who will not be helped by the hearing aids?A.David who is unable to hear the noise of power tools. |
B.Jack who can’t make out regular phone calls clearly. |
C.Messy who need to turn up the TV volume louder than others do. |
D.Poppy who can’t understand group conversations in noisy places. |
A.OTC hearing aids are only available online. |
B.The prices of OTC hearing aids vary considerably. |
C.Hearing tests will be provided at every selling spot. |
D.OTC hearing aids offered by Walmart are the most expensive |

【推荐3】Due to its status as the longest-running capital in ancient China, Xi’an has had a deep impact on the life and culture of the country. If you are planning a tour of Xi’an, you’ll want to hit all the following highlights.
Terracotta Army
Discovered near Lintong, Xi’an, the army of Terracotta Warriors was constructed by China’s First Emperor Qinshihuang of the Qin Dynasty. It is a collection of thousands of life-size terracotta soldiers, horses and chariots in battle formation, showing the emperor’s armies in full splendor.
Xi’an City Wall
Xi’an City Wall was built in the 14th century by Zhu Yuanzhang, the first Emperor of the Ming Dynasty as a military defense system. Now it is one of the oldest and best-preserved Chinese city walls. The wall is now a landmark, dividing the city into inner and outer areas. When you take a walk or cycle on the massive wall, you can enjoy a good view of the city, the moat and the watchtowers.
Giant Wild Goose Pagoda
The Giant Wild Goose Pagoda was built in the Tang Dynasty for the study of Buddhist scriptures. One of the main functions of the pagoda was to store sutras and figurines brought to China from India by the famous monk and traveler Xuan Zang, who stayed here for 19 years translating Buddhist scriptures.
Shaanxi History Museum
The Shaanxi History Museum is home to over 370,000 precious relics unearthed in Shaanxi over the years.
