Every day since March 8, people all over the world keep asking the same question: Where did Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 go? It turns out to be the biggest mystery in modern aviation (航空) history.
In the early hours of March 8, a Boeing 777 took off from Malaysia’s capital Kuala Lumpur (吉隆坡). It was heading to Beijing. But about two hours into the flight, the plane lost contact. There were 239 people on board the Malaysia Airlines flight, including 154 Chinese.
About 12 countries, including China, the US and Australia, have joined the search for the missing plane and passengers. The plane’s disappearance was a “mystery”, said officials. The plane was flying at a height of more than 10,000 meters when it suddenly lost contact. The weather was clear. The pilots didn’t make any distress calls (求救信号). When a plane crashes, broken parts are usually recovered. But up to April 2, officials have not found anything.
People are also talking about a possible hijacking. Interpol (国际刑警组织) said that two people on the flight used stolen passports. But that information alone isn’t evidence(证据) of a hijack.
The investigation (调查) is still going on. It could take months or even years to find out what happened to the flight.
“We are looking at all possibilities,” said Malaysian Transport Minister Hishamuddin Hussein. “The most important thing now is to find the plane.”
On March 24 came a piece of sad news. Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak said that the plane “ended in the southern Indian Ocean”. Everyone on the plane died. But the mystery is still not solved. Nobody is giving up. China has said it will work hard to find out the truth at all costs.

In today's world， almost everyone knows that air pollution and water pollution are harmful to people's health． However， not all the people know that noise is also a kind of pollution， and that is harmful to human health， too．
People who work and live under noisy conditions usually become deaf． Today， scientists believe that 10% of the workers in Britain are becoming deaf because of the noise where they work． Many of the workers who print newspapers and who weave cloth（织布）become deaf． Plenty of people living near airports also become deaf． Recently it was discovered that many teenagers in America could hear no better than 65﹣year﹣old persons， because these young people like to listen to pop music and most of pop music is a kind of noise． Besides， noise which is produced by jet planes or machines will make people's life difficult and unpleasant． It can make people ill or even drive them mad．
It is said that a continuous noise of more than 85 decibels（分贝）can cause deafness． Now the governments in many countries have made laws to control noise and make it less than 85 decibels．
