How Can You Fight colds?
People usually catch a cold in the spring time and fall. It makes us question: if scientists can send a man to the moon, why can’t they find a treatment for the common cold? The answer is easy. There are hundreds of kinds of cold viruses(病毒) out there. You never know which one you will get, so there isn’t a treatment for each one.
When a virus attacks your body, your body works hard to get rid of it. Blood(血液) rushes into your nose and brings congestion(堵塞) with it. You feel terrible because you can’t breathe well, but in fact your body is “eating” the virus. Your temperature rises and you get a fever, but the heat(高温) of your body is beating the virus. You might also have a runny nose to stop the virus from getting to your cells(细胞). You may feel awful, but in fact your wonderful body is doing everything it can to beat the cold.
Different people have different ways to fight colds. In Canada and some other countries, for example, people might eat chicken soup to feel better. Some people take hot baths and drink warm drinks. Other people take medicines to stop the fever, congestion and runny nose.
There is one interesting thing to note — some scientists believe that taking medicines when you have a cold is really bad for you. We know that bodies can do a great job on their own. Taking medicine can make the virus stay in you longer because your body doesn’t have a way to fight it and beat it. There is a joke on taking medicine when you have a cold. It goes like this: It takes about 1 week to get over a cold if you don’t take medicine, but only 7 days to get over a cold if you take medicine.
【1】When having a cold, your body can eat the virus while ________ .
A.having congestion in the nose B.taking enough medicines
C.going to see a doctor D.drinking cold drinks
【2】According to the passage, the writer may agree that ________ .
A.eating chicken soup is the best way to treat colds in Canada
B.the virus will stay in your body shorter if you take medicine
C.having a runny nose means your cold is getting more and more serious
D.feeling bad while having a cold probably means your body is doing a good job
【3】The joke at the end of the passage means taking medicine ________.
A.is better than not taking it B.is really bad for your health
C.needs longer time to get well D.is the same with no medicine
22、阅读下面三篇材料,根据材料内容从每小题所给的A、B、C、D 四个选项中,选出一个最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
I arrived at my mother’s home for our Saturday family dinner. The smells of food flew over from the kitchen. Mother was pulling out quilt after quilt from the boxes, proudly showing me their beauties. I knew they were all made herself. She was preparing for a quilt show on TV. When we began to fold and put them back into the boxes, I noticed something at the bottom of one box.I pulled it out. “What’s this?” I asked.
“Oh?” Mom said, “That’s Mama’s quilt.”
I spread the quilt. It looked as if a group of school children had made the pieces together.
“Grandmother made this?” I asked in surprise. My grandmother was a master at making quilts. This certainly didn’t look like any of the quilts she had made.
“Yes, right before she died. I brought it home with me last year and made some changes,” Mom said, “I’m still working on it. See, this is what I’ve done so far.”
I looked at it more closely. She had made a line straight(直的). At the center of the quilt, she had stitched a piece of cloth with these words: “My mother made many quilts. She didn’t get all lines straight. But I think this is beautiful. I want to see it finished. Her last quilt.”
“Oh, this is so nice, Mom.” I said. I was sure now that by completing my grandmother’s quilt, my mother was honoring her own mother. I realized that I held in my hands a family treasure. It started with the loving hands of one woman, and continued with the loving hands of another.

23、 All her life, my mother wanted busy children. She thought it was very important that her house should be kept clean and tidy at all times.
You could turn your back for a moment in my mother's house, leave a half written letter on the dining room table, a magazine open on the chair, and turn around to find that my mother had "put it back where it belonged(属于)." As she explained.
My wife, on one of her first visits to my mother's house, put a packet of biscuits on a table and went to the kitchen to get a drink. When she returned, she found the packet had been gone. Confused (疑惑的), she put down her drink and went back to the kitchen for more biscuits, but when she returned, she found that her drink had disappeared. She had guessed that everyone in my family held onto their drinks so that they would not make water rings on the tables. Now she knows better.
These disappearances had a confusing effect on our family. We were all inclined to(有...的倾向)forgetfulness, and it was common for one of us, who returned from the bathroom, to find the every sign of his work in progress had disappeared suddenly. "Do you remember what I was doing?" was a question often asked, but rarely answered.
Now my sister has developed a second-hand love of clean windows, and my brother does the cleaning in his house every day. I try not to think about it too much, but now I have started to clean my room once a week.

A.is happy to clean windows B.loves to clean used windows

【4】This passage mainly tells us that_______.
