He'll realize that children can be careless about things like that, and he won't make a big fuss about it unless it bees a regular thing. In the same vein, he knows that you'll understand if some of the trash from his trash cans blows across into your yard. IN other words, he is sensitive to the unintentional things that can happen. He doesn't make a big deal about them.

June 18, 2010
Dear Sir or Madam,
I am your neighbor living downstairs in the same building. lamjwriting you to plain of the noise you make during the night.
Recently the noise during the night disturbed my rest. Almost every night, there es some noise from your apartment just as I go to bed and am on my way to a dream. I wonder what the noise is. Are you repairing your furniture? Are you doing physical exercises? Whatever you do at that time of the night, you have to take your neighbors’ rest into consideration. In a word, you are disturbing both your other neighbors and me.
I heard you are always a friendly and considerate neighbor. Please stojp making noise at night. Thank you. Take care.
Yours friendly neighbor
Noise Pollution 噪音污染Noise is among the most pervasive pollutants today. Noise from road traffic, jet planes, jet skis, garbage trucks, construction equipment, manufacturing processes, lawn mowers, leaf blowers, and boom boxes, to name a few, are among the audible litter that are routinely broadcast into the air. Noise negatively affects human health and well-being. Problems related to noise include hearing loss, stress, high blood pressure, sleep loss, distraction and lost productivity, and a general reduction in the quality of life and opportunities for tranquillity. We experience noise in a number of ways. On some occasions, we can be both the cause and the victim of noise, such as when we are operating noisy appliances or equipment. There are also instances when we experience noise generated by others just as people experience second-hand *** oke. While in both instances, noises are equally damaging, second-hand noise is more troubling because it has negative impacts on us but is put into the environment by others, without our consent. Noise pollution is not easily defined. Part of the difficulty lies in the fact that in some ways it is different from other forms of pollution. Noise is transient; once the pollution stops, the environment is free of it. This is not the case for chemicals, sewage, and other pollutants introduced into the air, soil, or water. The definition of noise itself is highly subjective. To some people the roar of an engine is satisfying or thrilling; to others it is an annoyance. Loud music may be enjoyable or a torment, depending on the listener and the circumstances. Broadly speaking, any form of unwele sound is noise pollution, whether it is the roar of a jet plane overhead or the sound of a barking dog a block away. The actual loudness of a sound is only one ponent of the effect it has on human beings. Other factors that have to be considered are the time and place, the duration, the source of the sound, and whether the listener has any control over it. Most people would not be bothered by the sound of a 21-gun salute on a special occasion. On the other hand, the thump-thump of a neighbour's music at 2 a.m., even if barely audible, could be a major source of stress. The decibel (dB) （分贝） is a measure of sound intensity; that is, the magnitude of the fluctuations in air pressure caused by sound waves. In fact, an increase of just 3 dB means ice as much sound, and an increase of 10 dB means ten times as much sound. A sound pressure level of 0 dB represents the threshold of hearing in the most sensitive frequency range of a young, healthy ear, while the thresholds of tickling or painful sensations in the ear occur at about 120 to 130 dB. There is fairly consistent evidence that prolonged exposure to noise levels at or above 80 dB can cause deafness. The amount of deafness depends upon the degree of exposure. Noise can cause annoyance and frustration as a result of interference, interruption and distraction. Exposure to noise is also associated with a range of possible physical effects including: colds, changes in blood pressure, other cardiovascular changes, increased general medical practice attendance, problems with the digestive system and general fatigue.
We know the sounds of cities are loud enough to cause great harm to people's hearing in the china.One person out of enty has got some hearing loss.And all over the world the situation is getting worse and worse all the time since the noise increases with the population. With the development of machines,noise has also increased greatly.We live surrounded by loud planes,trucks and electric tools. TV sets and radios add up to 90 or J00 decibels,a certain unit used to measure the loudness of sound.A normal dialogue reaches 55 decibels; a plane goes to 100,and an ordinary train,reaching the station,can be ice as loud as the loudest plane.Disco music reaches about 118.At decibels the ear stops hearing sound,and pain starts.How terrible if things go on like this！ 噪音污染 众所周知，在中国，城市巨大的噪音对人们的听力造成了极大的损害.每20个人中就有一个有不同程度的听力损伤.就世界范围看来，因为噪音随着人口的不断增长，而越来越严重，这种情况也愈发恶化. 随着机械制造业的发展，噪音污染也日益加剧.我们生活在震耳欲聋的飞机、卡车和电器中. 电视和收音机加起来甚至达到90至100分贝（分贝：一种测定声音 大小的特定单位）.人们普通的对话是55分贝；飞机飞行中为100分贝；而一列普通的火车在到站时音量能够达到最嘈杂的飞机的两倍；迪斯科音乐更是高达118分贝.到达分贝耳朵就会丧失听觉，感到痛苦.这样下去，该是一件多么可怕的事情啊！
Noise Pollution We know the sounds of cities are loud enough to cause great harm to people's hearing .S. One person out of enty has got some hearing loss. And all over the world the situation is getting worse and worse all the time since the noise increases with the population. With the development of machines, noise has also increased greatly in the 20thcentury. We live surrounded by loud planes, trucks and electric tools. TV sets and radios add up to 90 or J00 decibels, a certain unit used to measure the loudness of sound. A normal dialogue reaches 55 decibels; a plane goes to 100, and an ordinary train, reaching the station, can be ice as loud as the loudest plane. Disco music reaches about 118. At decibels the ear stops hearing sound, and pain starts. How terrible if things go on like this! We know the sounds of cities are loud enough to cause great harm to people's hearing.

At 120 decibels the ear stops hearing sound, and pain starts. How terrible if things go on like this! So we should take some effective ways to stop noise pollution and get a peaceful world back. Noise pollution can cause just as many damaging effects on people's health as other forms of pollution. Exposure to excessive noise can cause hearing loss, stress, lack of sleep, irritability, indigestion, heartburn, high blood pressure and ulcers. In 1985, the Noise Control Act was enacted; however, the law is too lax and is seldom adequately enforced. Fortunately, the Environmental Protection Administration (EPA) plans to have amendments to the law passed by the end of the year. The revised law would prohibit building renovations and interior decorations at noon, and beeen 6:00 p.m. and 8:00 a.m. in residential areas. The EPA also plans to ban karaoke singing at home during lunchtime and from 10:00 p.m. to 8:00 a.m. Those who violate the amended law would be fined a maximum NT$30,000. Hopefully the revision to the Act will be passed as scheduled. More importantly, it must be strictly enforced. Authorities responsible for implementing the law, especially environmental protection authorities and the police, must never shirk their duties in enforcing legislation. Other steps should be taken to protect people from the damaging effects of environmental noise. Such steps include locating residential buildings as far from noise sources as possible, banning the honking of car horns in certain areas, and planting more trees in front of buildings to absorb noise.

The Trash-Site Safety Council has recently conducted a statewide study of possible harmful effects of garbage sites on the health of people living near the sites.A total of five sites and 300 people were examined.The study revealed,on average,only a *** all statistical correlation beeen the proximity of homes to garbage sites and the incidence of unexplained rashes among people living in these homes.Furthermore,although it is true that people living near the largest trash sites had a slightly higher incidence of the rashes,there was otherwise no correlation beeen the size of the garbage sites and people's health.Therefore,the council is pleased to announce that the current system of garbage sites does not pose a significant health hazard.We see no need to restrict the size of such sites in our state or to place any restrictions on the number of homes built near the sites

Noise from large trucks is typically engine and exhaust noise and is approximately 8' above the ground.In order to be effective,rest,relax,sleep,etc.Excessive noise can lead to mental and physical health problems.If your home is near a major road or you are experiencing problems with traffic noise,you may be able to limit the impact on yourself and your family.There are basically four options for controlling traffic noise.of the roadway.Height The noise from automobile traffic is primarily from the tires on the pavement,a barrier is more effective the closer it is to the source or to the receiver.Noise barriers are generally only effective for homes within 300 ft.Isolation QualityTraffic noise can also be controlled at the receiver by increasing the isolation quality of the home.Noise is tran *** itted primarily through the weakest points.Almost always,the weakest points in the home would be the windows.Depending upon the isolation quality of the current windows,upgrading the window assemblies could provide at least some relief.Replacing the windows will not help dramatically if you already have decent windows.Window isolation quality is expressed as a Sound Tran *** ission Class (STC) rating.The higher the rating,the better the isolation quality of the window.A typical single pane window has an STC rating of 22-25.A typical dual pane window has an STC of 27-32.(See table below).Specialty windows with higher STC ratings are also available.In existing residences it could be very costly to replace the majority of the windows.Another option that may be less expensive and could produce even better results is to add a window insert in addition to your existing windows.The window insert is placed inside your existing window sill.Please note that it is important to upgrade the windows that are both parallel and perpendicular to the roadway.It is almost never worthwhile to do anything to the exterior wall of the home,particularly if there is a window(s) in the wall.If the noise does not appear to be tran *** itting through the windows seek the help of a professional for further options.Contact us for a referral database of acoustical consultants.MaskingNoise can also be masked at the receiver.Sound masking can be implemented outside or inside your home.This can be acplished by an electronic sound masking system playing white noise/pink noise through noise generators.Other options include,indoor and outdoor water features,fans,or recordings of soothing sounds.However,this is sometimes perceived as adding more noise to a noisy environment.To learn more about masking systems,click here.Control At The SourceAs a resident you may not be able to control traffic noise at the source,but there are ways of limiting problems with traffic noise in the design of future roadways.Traffic noise increases with higher speed limits and with shorter distances from the road to the home.Recessing the roadway can reduce the noise impact.Use of quiet pavement such as rubberized asphalt can also reduce the impact by 4-5 decibels (see table below).Unlike conventional asphalt,rubberized asphalt maintains its noise reduction properties over several years.过度的交通噪声是一个在美国的居民最常见的投诉。
数以百万计的人在自己家中不断的交通噪音的影响。
事实上，交通噪声的影响比任何其他环境噪声源的更多的人。
交通噪声会影响工作能力，学习，休息，放松，睡眠，etc.excessive噪声可导致精神和身体的健康问题。
如果你家附近的主要道路或你遇到了交通噪声的问题，你可以限制你自己和你的家庭产生的影响。
控制交通噪声的方法基本上有四种：（或增加屏障墙的高度），增加家庭的隔离质量，掩蔽噪声，或控制源的噪声。
隔离墙修建或增加一道屏障墙的高度，可能会导致交通噪声明显下降，但必须满足一定的指导原则：材料墙壁必须坚固以不渗透是有效的。
任何渗透，启门可以降低有效性的障碍。
混凝土墙是首选，但其他类型的墙也可以有效阻挡不需要一堵墙，它也可能是一个大土护堤。
常见误解是典型的园林绿化或植被可以作为交通噪声的有效屏障。
除非植被100厚、非常密集，这将提供很小如果任何降噪。
距离通常，一个障碍是更有效的接近它的源或接收器。
声屏障通常是唯一有效的院内300英尺的巷道。
高度汽车交通噪声主要来自路面上的轮胎，噪声来源于地面0，大卡车噪声通常是发动机和排气噪声，约为8，在地面上，障碍墙必须至少阻挡视线从噪声源到接收器，虽然6的高墙可以帮助减少汽车交通噪声，但如果有任何重型卡车交通，如果一个家是在一座山或高架之上，6高的墙壁可能不足以挡住视线。
1-2 ft.may增加现有围墙高度有所作为取决于视力问题上述线。
然而，如果墙体已经阻碍了视线，由一对夫妇的脚增加墙的高度，将不提供显着减少。
