Cold blesses us all

It's November, the time of year when people often get blessed more. This is not because God likes cold weather, nor because others are fee ling generous with Thanksgiving just around the corner. 1.

Colds and the flu are the most common illnesses people get in autumn and winter as the weather gets colder. They are all caused by viruses, but colds are generally milder—you'll feel annoyed but not as if you want to die.

Teenagers catch average six to ten colds a year, according to statistics from the M inistry of Health, while adults average two to four. More than 200 viruses cause cold symptoms. 2. You can be contagious(傳染的)one day before symptoms develop and for up to five days after becoming sick.

The signature symptom of a cold is a runny nose. The flu will make you burn with fever, ache all over, feel extremely tired and cough intensely. The flu can sometimes lead to more serious diseases, such as pneumonia.

3. A doctor can test you to see whether you have the flu in the first few days of the illness. But some treatments for both are pretty much the same:

4. Many doctors consider water a weapon against the common cold. It helps your blood drive off viruses and flood them out.

● Keep warm. You might be cold one minute and hot the next, and wearing several layers is very important.

● Wash your hands frequently. You don't want to make it worse by spreading the flu to everyone else. Also, avoid sharing cups and eating utensil s(餐具) with other people.

5. But if your flu symptoms get worse, go to a hospital or clinic right away.

A. You can pass on the flu before you even know you have it.

B. Drink lots of water.

C. Taking medicine on time is a good way to prevent the illness.

D. "Bless you!" is a common response to sneezes, the symptom of catching a cold or the flu.

E. Get lots of sleep and take it easy.

F. Sometimes, it's hard to tell a cold from the flu based on symptoms alone.

G. Most people who catch the flu get better without having to see their doctor.

In a shocking upset, 70-year-old Republican candidate Donald Trump rode a wave to victory as voters elected him the 45th President of the United States.

Actually, a lot of experts had predicted that Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton would come out on top. Throughout the campaign, one of Trump's main challenges was to persuade voters that he has the attitude, knowledge and judgment to be president. In the end, he was able to attract more than enough voters to his side.

Hillary Clinton admitted the election to Trump in a phone call at around 2:30 am. "Hillary has worked very long and very hard over a long period of time," Trump told his supporters during his victory speech. "We owe her a major debt of gratitude for her service to our country. "

Hillary Clinton delivered her speech later in the day. "We must accept this result and then look to the future," she told her disappointed supporters. "Donald Trump is going to be our president. We owe him an open mind and the chance to lead. "

Trump's rise to the presidency comes after a long career as a real-estate developer. He built skyscrapers, resorts and golf courses. He also risked other businesses, introducing Trump Steaks, Trump Natural Spring Water, and an airline called Trump Shuttle. In 2004, he became a TV star with the reality show The Apprentice.

Now Trump and his team will have to face many difficult things. They'll have to work to bring the country together after a divisive campaign that upset millions of Americans. Throughout the country, millions of Americans are out of work and struggling to make ends meet. The new president must also address international issues. They include the war on terrorism and the refugee crisis. Still, Trump says he sees a bright future ahead. "Every single American will have the opportunity to realize his or her fullest potential," he told his supporters.

1.What should many experts think of Trump's victory?

A. It is expected. B. It is satisfying.

C. It is annoying. D. It is surprising.

2.How old was Donald Trump when he became a TV star?

A. 50 years old. B. 54 years old.

C. 58 years old. D. 62 years old.

3.What can be learned about Donald Trump from the passage?

A. He is a successful businessman.

B. He has been serving in government.

C. He thought badly of Hillary Clinton.

D. He is worried about America.

4.What is the last paragraph mainly about?

A. The problems with America.

B. The challenges Trump will face.

C. Trump's ideas about his future work.

D. The decisions Trump will have to make.

Maybe it is true that we do not know what we have got until we lose it,but it is also true that we do not know what we have been missing until it arrives.

It takes an hour to like someone,and a day to love someone,but it takes a lifetime to forget someone. Giving someone all your love is never an assurance(保證)that they will love you back. Do not expect love in return;but if it does not,be content it has grown in yours. Do not rely on one's appearance;it can trick you. Do not rely on wealth;even that fades away. Rely on someone who makes you smile,because it takes only a smile to make a dark day seem bright.

There are moments in life when you miss someone so much that you just want to pick them from your dreams and hug them. Dream what you want to dream;go where you want to go;be what you want to be,because you have only one life and one chance to do all the things you want to do.

The brightest future will always be based on a forgotten past. You cannot go on well in life until you let your past failures and heartaches go off. May you have enough happiness to make you sweet,enough trials(考驗(yàn))to make you strong,enough sorrow to keep you human,enough hope to make you happy. The happiest people do not necessarily have the best of everything;they just make the most of everything that comes along their way. Happiness waits for those who cry,those who appreciate the importance of people who have touched their lives. Always put yourself in others' shoes. If you feel that it hurts you,it probably hurts the other person,too.

When you were born,you were crying and everyone around you was smiling. Live your life so that when you die,you are the one who is smiling and everyone around you is crying.

1.In this passage,the writer wants to tell us ______.

A. what to do in our life B. where to go with other persons

C. how to treat our life D. how to get on well with other persons

2.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?

A. If you give someone your love,you are sure to receive love in return.

B. We often don't know what we have lost until it happens someday.

C. It is wise not to rely on anybody because you are likely to be cheated.

D. If it takes you a short time to love someone,you will forget the person.

3.One should ______ the painful past according to the writer.

A. value B. remember C. consider D. forget
