【单词例句】
◇ The American Academy of Otolaryngology – Head and Neck Surgery (AAO-HNSF) says that, in general, "you should avoid putting things in your ears," including cotton swabs. Using a swab to clean the ear can actually be counterproductive and push earwax back into the ear. What's more, cotton swabs or other tools may cause irritation or even injury to the ear, such as a punctured eardrum or ear infection, according to AAO-HNSF.
美国耳鼻咽喉头颈外科学会说，一般而言，“应该避免把一些东西弄到耳朵里”，包括棉签。用棉签清洁耳朵实际上可能事与愿违，并把耳垢推回到耳朵里。此外，棉签和其他工具可能对耳朵造成刺激、甚至损伤，例如耳膜穿孔或耳部感染。
