Passage Three

Crystal Ear
One day a
friend asked my wife Jill if I wanted a hearing aid. "He certainly does,"
replied Jill. After hearing about a remarkable new product, Jill finally got up
me nerve to ask me if I’d ever thought about getting a heating aid. "No way." I
said. "It would make me look 20 years older." "No, no," she replied. "This is
entirely different. It’s Crystal Ear!" Jill was tight. Crystal Ear is
different—not the old-styled body worn or over—the—ear aid, but an advanced
personal sound system so small that it’s like contacts (隐形眼镜) for your ears. And
Crystal Ear is super sensitive and powerful, too. You will hear sounds your ears
have been missing for years. Crystal Ear will make speech louder, and the sound
is pure and natural.
I couldn’t believe how tiny it is. It is
smaller than the tip of my little finger and it’s almost invisible when worn.
There are no wires, no behind-the-ear device. Put it in your ear and its
ready-to wear mold (形状) fits comfortably. Since it’s not too loud or too fight,
you may even forget that you’re wearing it! Use it at work or at play. And if
your hearing problem is worse in certain situations, use Crystal Ear only when
you need it.
Hearing loss, which occurs typically prior to
teenage years, progresses throughout one’s life time. Although hearing loss is
now the world’s number one health problem, nearly 90 percent of people suffering
hearing loss choose to leave the problem untreated. For many millions, treating
hearing loss in a conventional way can involve numerous office visits, expensive
testing and adjustments to fit your ear. Thanks to Crystal Ear, the "sound
solution" is now convenient. Almost 90 percent of people with mild hearing loss,
and millions more with just a little hearing drop-off, can be dramatically
helped with Crystal Ear. Moreover, its superior design is energy-efficient, so
batteries can last months. Crystal Ear is now available to help these people
treat their hearing loss with a small heating amplifier(放大器).Initially the writer did not want to buy a hearing aid because ______.
A. it would make him look old
B. It would make him nervous
C. it was too expensive
D. it was old-styled
