Robert Kohout,39,was working outside his home last October when he heard a frightening noise.He turned round and saw Walter Graham' s car sinking into 8 feet of water of the swimming pool a little distance away from his yard.

Kohout immediately called to Graham' s wife, Evelyn, to telephone 911.Then he ran back to his house to get Terence Reif and Glenn Fajardo to help ,who were at work inside the house. "There was no time for second thoughts," said Reif, a farmer's son."The only thing to do was to get in the pool."

The car doors were locked.Graham,73,was unconscious(失去知觉), and his Mercury was rapidly filling with water.Reif struggled to break the driver' s side window with a hammer but had trouble getting it done underwater.

Finally--some four minutes after the car had fallen into the pool--the glass was broken.By then,Graham was floating at the top of the flooded passenger compartment(车厢).

The three men pulled Graham out through the broken glass.He wash' t breathing and his heart stopped beating, so they performed mouth-to-mouth resuscitation.The rescue (急救) team arrived in no time.Doctors supplied him with advanced life support on the way to the hospital.

"These people were getting to Graham through the glass," said Dr.Jeff Messinger."All three acted without regard for their own safety." Added Evelyn Graham, "They were truly angels ( 天使) watching over US.”

Life gets noisier every day and very few people can free from noise of some sort or another.It doesn' t matter where you live--in the middle of a modern city, or a faraway village--the chances that you will be disturbed by jet aeroplanes, transistor radios, oil powered engines, etc., are almost

everywhere.We seem to be getting used to noise, too.Some people feel quite lonely without background music while they are working.

Scientific tests have shown that total silence can be very frightening experience for human beings.

However, some people enjoy listening to pop music which is very loud, and this can do harm to their eardrums(耳鼓).The noise level in some disco is far above the usual safety level for heavy industrial areas.

One recent report about noise and concentration(专心)suggested that although a lot of people say that any noise disturbs their concentration, what really affects their ability to concentrate is a change in the level of noise.It goes on to say that a background noise, which doesn' t change too much ( music, for example) may even help people to concentrate.

Scientists have discovered that what prevents people from concentrating is_______.
