24、Autumn and winter are cold and flu seasons. Does the old advice about dressing warmly help to prevent a cold? If you get sick, should you follow the old saying “Feed a cold and starve (挨饿) a fever”? And what about that fever? Should you take medicine to reduce your temperature, or is it better to let the body treat the fever itself?
Doctor Nelson knows a lot about cold and flu seasons. Nelson says research may be just starting to provide proofs (证明) for long-held (长期公认的) beliefs. For example, scientists for years were against the idea that getting cold and wet might cause colds or flu. But recent studies have shown that cold temperatures cause stress on the body, and that stress can create something more likely to lead to viruses. So maybe it is really important to wear warmly before going outside.
And what about feeding a cold and starving a fever? Nelson says if you have a cold and are hungry, you should eat. But a fever, especially a high one, suggests a more serious problem. He says people are usually not hungry when they have a high fever. Eating might even make a person sick. But drinking enough water is important. A fever easily makes the body lose water.
Finally, when should you treat a fever? Nelson says a fever should be treated if it stays at 40℃ or above for a day or more. A high temperature can damage brain cells. The doctor also believes in treating a fever if it prevents a person from sleeping.
Medicine like aspirin (阿司匹林), for example, can be used to reduce pain and fever. But aspirin should not be given to children because it can cause serious problems.
【1】According to Doctor Nelson, if someone catches a fever, he should ________.
A.take a bath in cold water
B.drink enough water
C.try to eat something
D.take some exercise outside
【2】We can learn from the passage that Doctor Nelson ________.
A.doesn’t believe in the old advice about preventing colds
B.is now trying his best to provide proofs for long-held beliefs
C.thinks a fever needn’t be treated even if it prevents someone from sleeping
D.thinks when you have a high fever, eating food is likely to make you sick
【3】Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?
A.Why people should eat when having a cold.
B.When people should treat a fever.
C.What the medicine aspirin is used for.
D.Whether the old advice about preventing a cold is valuable.
【4】The passage suggests that ________.
A.aspirin can damage train cells if an adult takes too much of it
B.it is easier for people to catch colds when their bodies are stressed
C.all of the old advice about preventing colds doesn’t make any sense
D.the idea that getting cold can cause flu was proved true years ago
【5】Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?
A.Should We Feed a Cold and Starve a Fever
B.Aspirin, the Best Cure for a High Fever
C.Beliefs in Colds and Fever Proven in Science
D.Treating a Cold by Drinking Enough Water

26、 On the first day of the New Year 2017,I made up my mind to go to Thailand to teach English as a volunteer. At the beginning, all I cared about was travelling and seeing the world. I didn’t know how fantastic my life would be in the coming months!
My journey began with attending TESOL certification(认证) course in my home state of Florida last February. After 3 weekends of study and another 40 hours’ study online, I received my TESOL certificate(证书).
I was asked to contact Philip,who is Program Director of the Teach in Thailand. After discussing with Philip,I chose my school and after many months of excitement,I finally flew to Thailand in early April and I couldn’t wait to explore the country!
After a few weeks of travel alone,I met up with Philip and the other new teachers in my program in Bangkok. It was great to meet other people who were on the same journey as me,see some cool sights and walk in Thailand’s cities! After that, I attended the weeklong seminar(研讨会). At the end of the seminar, I was transported to my school—Anuban Buriram Primary School.
I truly love my job—I teach Grades 5 and 6 and I have the cleverest and most active kids in the world. It’s a truly fantastic thing that you can see the difference you make in someone else’s life, right in front of you!
Buriram is a small city with green rice fields. People here are more friendly than anyone I’ve ever met—I’ve never been anywhere where a smile is so easily received,where everyone you pass is so friendly to say “Hello” and “Good morning”. I’ve been taken out to countless dinners,and been lent a guitar,a camera,and I am given Thai treats and the most delicious fresh fruits many times a week. I only hope to repay(回报) them in the future.
