      Different from popular thoughts, colds are not caused by bad weather. Colds are caused by viruses
(病毒) in the body, and you are better out on the snowy day than you are in a warm room, with your
friends, who just may be passing the virus around. If you feel a chill (寒冷) when you are coming down
with a cold, you are already sick. A chill is an early sign of the cold.
      The virus can spread through air when a cold-sufferer (感冒患者) coughs or sneezes. Surprisingly,
this is not the most usual way of spreading, Many studies have now shown that most colds are "caught"
by hands. A cold-sufferer rubs her nose, so spreading the virus to her hand. Then a friend comes to visit
her. They shake their hands. The friend then gets something to eat by hand, and several days later she
catches a cold. Although some parents pick up their children's tissues (纸巾) and carefully throw them
away, they fail to wash their hands. They'll catch the colds, too.
      Cold viruses can also be spread by objects, for example, telephones, plates. The cold-sufferer as well
as other members of the house, by washing their hands often, will stop the viruses from spreading in a way.
1. Colds are caused by ______.
[     ]
A. bad weather
B. viruses
C. chill
D. your friends
2. The word "spread" means ______.
[     ]
A. 翻译
B. 传统
C. 传送
D. 传播
3. Which of the following sentences is true in the passage?
[     ]
A. An early sign of the cold is viruses in the body.
B. The virus can't spread through air.
C. Objects can spread cold viruses, too.
D. Few colds are "caught" by hands.
4. People catch colds easily because they ______.
[     ]
A. rub their noses
B. shake their hands
C. pick up their children's tissues
D. can't often wash their hands
5. The passage mainly tells us that ______.
[     ]
A. washing hands is a way to keep us from catching colds
B. colds are caused by bad weather
C. the cold-sufferer shakes hands with her friends
D. we should stay in a warm room on the snowy day

On February 3rd,1949,New York Harbor was an exciting place.Many people were there to greet a ship from France.On the ship were 49 French railroad boxcars filled with gifts from the people of France to the people of America.These boxcars were from the famous Merci Train (Merci,a French word meaning "thank you").

  After World War Ⅱ,a lot of factories,roads and farms in France had been destroyed.Many French people had no jobs or money and had little to wear and little to eat.In the winter of 1947,a train was sent across the United States,stopping in cities and towns along the way.At every stop,people gave whatever they could.Factories gave clothing and medicine.Farmers gave food.Families gave money.Even school children gave away their pocket money. All the things were then carried to France by ship.

  By 1949,the French had begun to recover from the war.The Merci Train was their way of saying "thank you" to America.French people had filled the boxcars with gifts.Most of them were personal,like hand-made toys,children's drawings,or postcards.But the boxcars themselves were perhaps the most meaningful of the gifts.On each car,the French people had painted the pictures of all their 40 provinces,with an American eagle on the front.The boxcars were moved to each state of America,where they were warmly greeted.

Now many of the states still keep their boxcars.Gifts sent by the French people can still be seen in some museums.The Merci Train came out of the war,but it now reminds the world that countries can also work together in peace.

As we know, there are differences between western culture and Chinese culture. We can see differences when we pay attention to the way words are used. Let’s look at the words about animals and plants. Most expressions in Chinese about the dog, for example, “a homeless dog”, “a mad dog”, “a running dog” and “a dog catching a mouse”, have negative(消极的)meanings. But in western countries, dogs are thought to be honest and good friends of people. In English, people use the dog to describe positive(积极的)actions. For example, “you are a lucky dog” means you are a lucky person. And “every dog has its day” means each person has good 1uck one day. To describe a person’s serious illness, they say “sick as a dog”. The word “dog-tired” means very tired. However, Chinese love cats very much. But in western culture, “cat” is often used to describe a woman who is cruel(冷酷的). There are many other examples of how “cat” is used differently as well.
The rose(玫瑰)is thought of as a symbol of love in both China and some western countries. People think the rose stands for(代表)love, peace, courage and friendship. And the rose is the national flower of England, America and many other countries.
