| What do you think is the most common illness? Do you get ill sometimes? We are lucky to live now, because there are lots of medicines to make people better. The most common illness in the world is the cold. It often begins with a sore throat. Then you sneeze and your nose runs. You usually have a headache too. Often you cough later. It"s not a very bad illness, but you can feel quite ill. There isn"t a cure (治愈) for a cold, but you can take medicines to make you feel better. For instance, aspirin (阿司匹林) can stop your headache. It is good to rest, and to drink a lot of water too. A doctor once said to me, "With the proper (适当的) medicine, a cold will continue for seven days. With no medicine, it will continue for a whole week!" Where does our medicine come from? A long time ago, people knew that some plants made them feel better. They ate the leaves, the roots, the fruit, or the seeds of plants. For instance, the juice of lemons makes a sore throat feel better. In modern times, scientists have looked at these plants, and found out which chemicals (化学物质) are in them. Many of our medicines today are made from those chemicals. There are some illnesses which we can"t cure yet. And nobody has found a cure for old age. But because of modern medicines, many people now live longer than their grandparents. |

| In the 13th century, the famous Italian traveler, Marco Polo, traveled a long way to China. During his stay in China, he discovered that the Chinese used paper money. In western countries, people did not use paper money until the 15th century. A Chinese man called Cai Lun invented paper almost 2000 years ago. He made it from wood. Now paper still comes from trees. We use a lot of paper every day. Every day, people throw away about 280 tons of paper in our city. It takes 17 trees to make one ton of paper. This means that we are cutting nearly 4800 trees every day. Since it takes more than 10 years for a tree to grow, we must start using less paper now. If we don"t, we will not have enough time to grow more trees to take the place of those we use for paper. So how can we save paper? We can use both sides of every piece of paper, especially when we are making notes. We can choose drinks in bottles instead of those in paper packets. We also use cotton handkerchiefs and not paper ones. When we go shopping, we can use fewer paper bags. If the shop assistant does give us a paper bag, we can save it and reuse it later. |

There has not been a worldwide spread (传播) of flu (流行性感冒) since 1968. Experts say there should have been another by now. The so-called Spanish flu in 1918 became the most deadly flu ever recorded. It killed an estimated twenty million to fifty million people. Almost half were young adults. There were two other widespread flu in the twentieth century. The Asian flu struck in 1957, and the Hong Kong flu in 1968. Scientists at the United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention say the cause of the widespread Spanish flu is not clear. But the two others are known to have resulted from a human virus that became mixed with a bird flu virus. And that could happen again. Scientists first identified bird flu in Italy more than one hundred years ago. Bird flu is caused by type A flu viruses. Type A are the most common, and usually cause the most serious flu spread in people. Currently the most serious kind of bird flu is known as h-five-n-one.
