Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 36 to 42

The authors noted that while other forms of pollution are decreasing, noise pollution has been increasing. This conclusion is reinforced by the fact that there has been an increase in the number of people who have been complaining about excessive noise in the WHO region. Populations that are exposed to high noise levels can be afflicted by other symptoms such as: stress reactions, sleep-stage changes, and clinical symptoms like hypertension and cardiovascular diseases. All these impacts can contribute to premature mortality. It is important to note that these adverse health problems impact all age groups including children and adolescents. In fact, it has been reported that children who live and or study in an area afflicted with noise pollution tend to suffer from stress, impairments in memory and attention as well as difficulty reading.

 “In Western Europe, the guidelines say, traffic noise results in an annual loss of at least one million healthy years”. Traffic noise is currently ranked second among environmental threats to public health.

The danger of noise pollution is more present to us when we are asleep. Because the human ear is so sensitive, it never rests, it is always working, picking up and transmitting sounds for our brains to interpret. This always on working process is where the danger lies, though you may be sleeping, sounds are still being picked up and processed. The most common side effects of this phenomenon are sleep disturbance and tiredness, impaired memory, judgment, and psychomotor skills. The other more serious outcomes of this can be the triggering of the body’s acute stress response, which raises blood pressure and heart rate as the body and brain go into a state of hyperarousal. According to the European Environment Agency, at least 10,000 cases of premature deaths from noise exposure occur each year, although incomplete data mean this number is significantly underestimated.

Các tác giả lưu ý rằng trong khi các dạng ô nhiễm khác đang giảm thì ô nhiễm tiếng ồn lại gia tăng. Kết luận này được củng cố bởi thực tế là đã có sự gia tăng số lượng người phàn nàn về tiếng ồn quá mức ở khu vực WHO. Những nhóm dân số tiếp xúc với mức độ tiếng ồn cao có thể bị ảnh hưởng bởi các triệu chứng khác như: phản ứng căng thẳng, thay đổi giai đoạn ngủ và các triệu chứng lâm sàng như tăng huyết áp và bệnh tim mạch. Tất cả những tác động này có thể góp phần gây tử vong sớm. Điều quan trọng cần lưu ý là những vấn đề sức khỏe bất lợi này ảnh hưởng đến mọi nhóm tuổi bao gồm cả trẻ em và thanh thiếu niên. Trên thực tế, có báo cáo rằng trẻ em sống và học tập tại khu vực bị ô nhiễm tiếng ồn có xu hướng bị căng thẳng, suy giảm trí nhớ và sự chú ý cũng như khó đọc.

"Ở Tây Âu, các hướng dẫn nêu rằng tiếng ồn giao thông dẫn đến mất ít nhất một triệu năm khỏe mạnh hàng năm". Tiếng ồn giao thông hiện được xếp hạng thứ hai trong số các mối đe dọa môi trường đối với sức khỏe cộng đồng.

Nguy cơ ô nhiễm tiếng ồn hiện hữu rõ hơn khi chúng ta ngủ. Vì tai người rất nhạy cảm nên không bao giờ nghỉ ngơi, mà luôn hoạt động, tiếp nhận và truyền âm thanh để não bộ diễn giải. Quá trình hoạt động liên tục này chính là nơi ẩn chứa nguy cơ, mặc dù bạn có thể đang ngủ, âm thanh vẫn được tiếp nhận và xử lý. Các tác dụng phụ phổ biến nhất của hiện tượng này là rối loạn giấc ngủ và mệt mỏi, suy giảm trí nhớ, khả năng phán đoán và kỹ năng vận động tâm lý. Các hậu quả nghiêm trọng hơn khác của tình trạng này có thể là kích hoạt phản ứng căng thẳng cấp tính của cơ thể, làm tăng huyết áp và nhịp tim khi cơ thể và não bộ rơi vào trạng thái kích thích quá mức. Theo Cơ quan Môi trường Châu Âu, mỗi năm có ít nhất 10.000 trường hợp tử vong sớm do tiếp xúc với tiếng ồn, mặc dù dữ liệu không đầy đủ có nghĩa là con số này bị đánh giá thấp đáng kể.
