“A cold can disappear in two days. Seventy percent of people who catch a cold feel better within a week, but it is unusual to have the common cold for as long as two weeks, ” says Gary Rogg, a medicine specialist (专家) at Montefiore Medical Center in New York. Why does your cold seem to be staying for longer than it should? Here are some possible reasons. Getting Less Sleep Sleep plays an important role in our system. In fact, a study proved that people who got less than seven hours of sleep per night were nearly three times more likely to catch a cold than people who slept for eight hours or more. Low on Water Water plays an important part in your body. If your cold won’t go away, consider drinking more water. Treating the Wrong Illness The common cold can easily be mixed with other illnesses. Often, people believe they’ ve had a cold for a few weeks and may not realize that they aren’t getting better because they’ ve been treating the wrong illness. Exercising Too Hard “People ask me all the time,’ Should I exercise when I have a cold?’” Katona says. “My answer is usually’yes’ , but do it at a lower level. If you do it at a high level, you may get even worse.” So, what does Katona consider to be a lower level? The answer is taking a walk, not running five miles. 1.Who is Gary Rogg? A. He is a medicine specialist at Montefiore Medical Center. B. He is a person who advises us not to exercise too hard. C. He is a person who catches a cold easily. 2.Who can catch a cold more easily according to the passage? A. People who sleep 6 hours per night. B. People who sleep 8 hours per night. C. People who sleep 10 hours per night. 3.According to the passage, which of the following is NOT a reason why your cold might stay for longer? A. Getting less rest. B. Eating more meat. C. Drinking little water. 4.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A. 70% of people who catch a cold will not feel better within a week. B. Katona says running five miles is a good way to get better. C. Often the common cold is mixed with other illnesses. 5.What’ s the best title for the passage? A. How to get away from the cold B. Why your cold stays for longer C. The right medicine for a cold

Table manners are how to behave when you have a meal. They include how to handle knives, forks and spoons and how to eat in a polite manner. To behave well abroad, you should know some table manners. EATING MANNERS Japan: It is ＂perfectly＂ okay to slurp when you eat noodles. Unlike making big noises, slurping slightly is not rude. Japanese also say it tastes better if you slurp. Russia: Your wrists should be placed on the edge of the table while eating, fork in left hand, and knife in the right. It is not good manners to rest them on your lap. Keep your elbows off the table. Leave some food on your plate to show that the host has give you enough to eat. France: Never discuss money or religion over dinner. What is different from the manners in Russia is that finishing everything on your plate is considered good manners. Mexico: Whenever you catch the eye of someone who’s eating, even a stranger, it’s good manners to say ＂provecho＂, which means enjoy. In Mexico, dining is more than a meal. It’s a social occasion — lunches are seldom quick and suppers can last for hours. Before you get seated, look for place cards, or wait until the host seats you. And you must say ＂enjoy your meal＂ before you leave the table. DRINKING MANNERS America: If you empty a bottle into someone’s glass, it obliges that person to buy the next bottle. It’s polite to put the last drops into your own glass. Australia: In a pub it’s usual to buy a round of drinks for everyone in your group. When it’s your turn, say ＂It’s my round＂. When it’s their round, they will buy it for you. Don’t leave before you’ve bought a round. Japan: Don’t fill your own glass of alcohol. Instead, you should pour for others and wait for them to do it for you. 1.You are in Mexico, you should ________________. A. keep silent if you catch the eye of a stranger B. eat as quickly as you can to save your time C. say ＂enjoy your meal＂ before you leave the table 2.When you eat noodles in Japan, you should ________________. A. slurp loudly B. slurp slightly C. not to make any noise 3.According to the passage, it is good manners to ________________.
