There are different landing charges according to the aircraft’s noise emission. The higher landing charges for louder aircraft encourage airlines to invest in quieter types. — Сборы за посадку варьируются в зависимости от уровня шумового загрязнения, производимого самолетом. Более высокие сборы за посадку более шумных самолетов приводят к тому, что авиакомпании начинают инвестировать средства в создание менее шумных моделей.

an ass between two bundles of hay
буриданов осёл l’âne de Buridan; французскому философу XIV в. Буридану приписывается рассказ об осле, умершем от голода, так как он не решался сделать выбор между двумя одинаковыми охапками сена]
In his quieter moods he thought often of Katha and Margaret and the curious chain of circumstances which had brought him to this unsatisfactory dangling between two women, one now almost a dream, the other only too palpably near. He felt like Buridan’s ass, which starved between the two bundles of hay. (R. Aldington, ‘All Men Are Enemies’, part II, ch. VI) — В более спокойные минуты он часто думал о Кате и Маргарет и о том странном стечении обстоятельств, приведшем его к этому метанью между двумя женщинами, из которых одна стала теперь уже почти мечтой, а другая — увы! — слишком ощутимо близкой. Он чувствовал себя в положении буриданова осла, умиравшего с голоду между двумя охапками сена.

And yet, of late, since she had been round the world, he had seemed to notice something quieter and more solid in her conduct, as if settled purposes were pushing up, and she were coming to terms at last with her daily life. (J. Galsworthy, ‘Swan Song’, part I, ch. XI) — И все-таки за последнее время, после путешествия вокруг света, он как будто улавливал в поведении Флер что-то более спокойное и устойчивое, словно определились для нее какие-то ценности, примирявшие ее с ее собственной жизнью.
…she liked the country even less than Mrs Clive, who was gradually coming to terms with it. (M. Dickens, ‘The Landlord’s Daughter’, ch. 2) —…Рите эти места нравились меньше, чем миссис Клайв, которая успела привыкнуть к ним.

Why do I like silence so much?
It literally heightens our well-being by reducing stress, lowering blood pressure, and even regenerating brain cells. Introverts love talking about how we need to recharge our batteries after being around people for too long, because it’s a great way to visualize how we replenish our energy.
Why is silence so loud?
The brain creates noise to fill the silence, and we hear this as tinnitus. Perhaps only someone with profound deafness can achieve this level of silence, so paradoxically loud. I have it easy, and in fact kind of like my tinnitus: it changes pitch from time to time, an ethereal deep outer space keening.
Why is silence bad?
Silence can be dangerous for both the marginalized and the non-marginalized.
