It’s possible to get ill at any time of the year, however, it seems that more people get sick in winter. So why does this happen
The biggest reason is that the cold weather brings us indoors. Spending more time indoors can make us get close with others but it will be easier for us to catch a cold or flu(流感). Moreover, according to scientists, the virus(病毒) is protected(保护) by its own fatty coating(脂质外层), but this coating changes into liquid(液体) at higher temperatures(温度). So the virus is less able to travel in summer. In colder weather, the coating keeps complete(完整). That’s why the virus will get into our body easily.
What’s more, the air is drier in winter both indoors and outside. The dry air is good for the travel of viruses. Therefore, viruses can travel farther and stay in the air for longer. Besides, in winter, we often close our windows and doors to keep warm. Less fresh air indoors helps viruses live longer in a room.
What about other reasons Cold weather may be bad to our body and immune systems(免疫系统). A study found that to lower the temperature inside the nose by 5℃ kills nearly 50% of its virus-fighting cells(抗病毒细胞).
In order to stop illnesses, here are some tips for you. We should do more outdoor exercise to keep our body strong. It’s a good way to take a walk with your close friends and enjoy the fresher air in the park on weekends. Besides, washing our hands can often lower the travel of viruses.
28. According to the text, in which season might people be easier to get ill
A. Summer. B. Autumn. C. Winter.
29. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage
A. The virus travels more easily on hot days.
B. Fresh air plays an important role in helping viruses live longer.
C. There may be fewer virus-fighting cells because of cold weather.
30. Which is the right structure of the text (①=Paragraph 1 ②=Paragraph 2, ..)
A. B. C.
31. We can _______ to keep away from viruses according to the writer.
A. eat out with friends
B. spend some time walking outdoors
C. travel around less

In 1594, William Shakespeare became a key playwright(剧作家) of a popular acting company in the city. Whether comedies or tragedies, Shakespeare’s plays catch people’s hearts with the complicated(复杂的) characters and plots(情节) that show truths about human nature.
His comedies are always full of romance, and they always have happy endings. That’s why people enjoy his comedies a lot. His tragedies, however, can be very dark, Macbeth tells the story about a Scottish man who becomes the king by killing all his enemies(敌人).
Shakespeare’s works have had a big influence(影响) on the English language. He was a master(大师) of words. He created about 1,700 English words, including everyday ones like “lonely”, “hurry” and “critical”, according to the New York Post.
Of course, Shakespeare wrote 400 years ago and his English was very different from that of today. His plays have been translated into many languages and are acted more often than any other playwright. There are over 400 films and TV dramas adapted(改编) from his works. Shakespeare is not for an age, but for all time.
