Part II Reading Comprehension (35 minutes)

Directions: There are 4 passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some

questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices

marked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice and mark the

corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the centre.

Passage One

Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage.

Scratchy throats, stuffy noses and body aches all spell misery, but being

able to tell if the cause is a cold or flu（流感）may make a difference in how

long the misery lasts.

The American Lung Association (ALA) has issued new guidelines on combating

colds and the flu, and one of the keys is being able to quickly tell the two

apart. That’s because the prescription drugs available for the flu need to be

taken soon after the illness sets in. As for colds, the sooner a person starts

taking over-the-counter remedy, the sooner relief will come.

The common cold and the flu are both caused by viruses. More than 200

viruses can cause cold symptoms, while the flu is caused by three viruses –

flu A, B and C. There is no care for either illness, but the flu can be

prevented by the flu vaccine（疫苗）, which is, for most people, the best way

to fight the flu, according to the ALA.

But if the flu does strike, quick action can help. Although the flu and

common cold have many similarities, there are some obvious signs to look for.

Cold symptoms such as stuffy nose, runny nose and scratchy throat typically

develop gradually, and adults and teens often do not get a ever. On the other

hand, fever is one of the characteristic features of the flu for all ages. And

in general, flu symptoms including fever and chills, sore throat and body aches

come, it suddenly and are more severe than cold symptoms.

The ALA notes that it may be particularly difficult to tell when infants

and preschool age children have the flu. It advises parents to call the doctor

if their small children have flu-like symptoms.

Both cold and flu symptoms can be eased with over-the-counter medications

as well. However, children and teens with a cold or flu should not take aspirin

for pain relief because of the risk of Reye syndrome （综合症）, a rare but

serious condition of the liver and central nervous system.

There is, of course, no vaccine for the common cold. But frequent hand

washing and avoiding close contact with people who have colds can reduce the

likelihood of catching one.

11.According to the author, knowing the cause of the misery will help ___.

A) shorten the duration of the illness

B) the patient buy medicine over the counter.

C) the patient obtain cheaper prescription drugs

D) prevent the people from catching colds and the flu

12.We learn from the passage that ___.

A)one doesn’t need to take any medicine if he has a cold or the flu

B) aspirin should not be included in over-the-counter medicines for the flu

C) delayed treatment of the flu will harm the liver and central nervous system

D) over-the-counter drugs can e taken to ease the misery caused by a cold or

the flu

13.According to the passage, to combat the flu effectively, one should ___.

A) identify the virus which causes it

B) consult a doctor as soon as possible

C) take medicine upon catching the disease

D) remain alert when the disease is spreading

14.Which of the following symptoms will distinguish the flu from a cold?

A) A stuffy nose. C) A sore throat.

B) A high temperature. D) A dry cough.

15.If children have flu-like symptoms, their parents ___.

A) are advised not to give them aspirin

B) should watch out for signs of Reye syndrome

C) are encourage to take them to hospital for vaccination

Passage Two
