the spanish flu epidemic
if you’re worried about the possibility of a coming bird flu epidemic,you can take comfort in the fact that humanity has survived a similar influenza epidemic in the past.starting its rounds at the end of world war i,the 1918 flu killed an estimated 50 million people.
popularly known as the spanish flu,this type of influenza was far worse than your common cold.normally,influenza only kills those who are more vulnerable to disease,such as newborns,the old or the sick.however,the spanish flu was prone to killing the young and healthy.often it would disable its victims in hours;within a day,they would be dead,typically from extreme cases of pneumonia(肺炎).
the spanish flu was quite nasty-fast-spreading and deadly.it managed to spread across the globe,devastating the world.then suddenly,after two years ravaging(蹂躏)the earth,it disappeared as quickly as it had arisen.
despite its nickname,the spanish flu did not originate in spain.its true origins are unknown.some believe it started in us forts and then spread to europe as america joined the war;others think that it populated the trenches of the english and the french and eventually broke out in 1918.regardless of where it started,eventually a fifth of the world population suffered the disease,with a global mortality rate(死亡率)estimated at 2.5% of the population.
modernity was partly to blame for the quick spread of the disease.it passed throughout the world on trade routes and shipping lines.it hit northern america,europe,asia,africa and the south pacific.the war did not help at all-the movement of supplies and troops aided the spread of the spanish flu,as well as the trench warfare.imagine the speed at which a virus can spread in a crowded ditch.the fast emergence of the virus in the trenches caused some soldiers to believe that the spanish flu was a new form of biological warfare.
luckily,the spanish flu simply vanished by 1920.it is believed the flu simply ran out of fuel to spread.
16.the spanish flu started during world war i.
a.right b.wrong c.not mentioned

creating a world without smoking
smoking will be banned in all pubs,clubs and workplaces from next year affter historic votes in the commons last night.after last-minute appeals from health campaigners,mps opted for a blanket prohibition which will start in summer 2007,ending months of argumeng over whether smokers should be barred in pubs and restaurants only.they voted to ban smoking in all pubs and clubs by 384 to 184,a surprisingly large majority of 200.
smoking will still be allowed in the home and in places considered to be homes,such as prisons,care homes and hotels.
smokers lighting up in banned areas will face a fixed penality notice of ￡50 and spot fines of ￡200 will be introduced for failing to display no-smoking signs,with the possible penalty,if the issue goes to court,increasing to ￡1,000.
carpline flint,the public health minister,also announced that the fine for failing to stop people smoking in banned areas would be increased to ￡2,500-more than ten times the ￡200 originally proposed.
the bill also allows the government to increase the age for buying cigarettes.ministers will consult on raising it from 16 to 18.
the bill now goes to the lords but will be through by the summer recess.
even a plan to allow smoking to continue in private clubs was thrown out as mps on all sides were given permission to vote with their conscience rather than on a party line.
patricia hewitt,the health secretary,said the health bill would ban smoking in“virtually every enclosed public place and workplace”in england and save thousands of lives a year.smoke-free workplaces and public places“will become the norm”.
she said:“an additional 600,000 people will give up smoking as a result of this law and millions more will be protected from second-hand smoke.”
peter hollins,director-general of the british heart foundation,said:“the vote is a landmark victory for the public health of this country and will save the lives of many people.”

health care in the us
health care in the us is well-known but very expensive. paying the doctor’s bill after a major illness or accident can cost hundreds of thousands of dollars.
in the us, a person’s company, not the government, pays for health insurance.
employers have contracts with insurance companies, which pay for all or part of employees’ doctors’ bills.
the amount that the insurance company will pay out to a patient differs wildly. it all depends on what insurance the employer pays. the less the boss pays to the insurance company, the more the employee has to pay the hospital each time he or she gets sick. in 2004, the average worker paid an extra us$558 a year, according to a san franCISCO report.
the system also means many americans fall through the cracks (遭遗漏). in 2004, only 61 per cent of the population received health insurance through their employers, according to the report. the unemployed, self-employed, part-time workers and graduated students with no jobs were not included.
most us university students have a gap between their last day of school and their first day on the job. often, they are no longer protected by their parents’ insurance BECause they are now considered independent adults. they also cannot buy university health insurance because they are no longer students.
another group that falls through the gap of the us system is international students. all are required to have health insurance and cannot begin their classes without it. but exact policies (保险单) differ from school to school.
most universities work with health insurance companies and sell their own standard plan for students. often, buying the school plan is required, but luckily it’s also cheaper than buying direct from the insurance company.
16 in the us, a person’s company buys him or her health insurance
a right b wrong c not mentioned
17 all employees in the us have the same kind of health insurance.
a right b wrong c not mentioned
18 in 2004, most of the unemployed in the us were women.
a right b wrong c not mentioned
19 in the us, graduated students with no jobs can buy university health insurance
a right b wrong c not mentioned
20 all international students in the us have to buy health insurance
a right b wrong c not mentioned
21 the international students in the us work harder than the american students
a right b wrong c not mentioned
22 the health care system_ in the us takes care of everyone in the country.
a right b wrong c not mentioned
