Humans have many organs（器官）, but you can enjoy lots of things because of your ears. Do you know how the ears work?
The ear has three parts: the outer ear（外耳）, the middle ear and the inner ear（内耳）. The outer ear is the part you can see. It collects sounds around you. The sounds then travel down to the middle ear, the inner ear and then to your brain.
Your ears never stop working, even when you are asleep! In other words, your ears continue hearing sounds, but you can't hear the sounds just because your brain ignores them.
But ears do more than hear. They help you keep balanced（平衡的）, too. In the inner ear, there are organs that are filled with liquid（液体）and covered with small hairs. When you move your head, the liquid and hairs move, too. They send messages to your brain about the position of your head.
More surprisingly, ears even help to taste food. Of course, you don't actually taste food with your ears. But there are nerves（神经）running through the middle ear that connect the tongue（舌头） to the brain. If something happens to your ears, you might have a hard time telling different tastes.
The ears are truly important organs. We should protect our ears well.

On December 26th, 2020, China passed a new law to protect the Yangtze River, the "mother river" of China. It is Yangtze River Protection Law. It took effect（生效）on March 1st, 2021. It's the first law to protect a waterway in China.
The 6,397-kilometer Yangtze River is the longest river in Asia. It covers an area of about 1.8 million square kilometers, about one fifth of the national total. The Yangtze River provides one third of the country's freshwater resources（淡水资源）, but it has met lots of environmental problems in recent years, such as heavy pollution and overfishing. Especially, the river's Chinese paddlefish（白鲟）has died out. So the "mother river" is in great need of protection. To solve these problems, China put a 10-year fishing ban（禁令）at the beginning of this year to protect fish resources.
According to a report of the government, the fishermen said they would give up fishing along the Yangtze River to protect the "mother river". Chinese officer Han Zheng said that more support should be given to the fishermen to help them find new jobs and places to live.
Yangtze River Protection Law includes resource protection and green development. The government says the purpose of the new law is to strengthen（加强）environmental protection, use resources well and make the development sustainable（可持续的）.
