What We Can Do to Stay Away fromFlu
1. Do plenty of exercise. Have enough sleep. Drink more water.
2. Wear a mask when going outside. Turn your head away from people near you when you or they are coughing.
3. When you arrive home, wash your hands for at least 15-20 seconds.
4. If flu is going around your house or school, try to stay away from those who are ill. Don’t share food with them.
5. Take flu vaccine(疫苗).
Recently, Dr. David Nabarro, A UN health expert, warned that a new flu pandemic(世界性的流感) could come anytime. And it could kill millions of people.
It could be so serious because it could be a type of bird flu. Bird flu has killed at least 65 people and tens of millions of birds in Asia since 2003. Usually, the virus (病毒) does not pass from person to person. But experts believe this could change if the virus changes.
“If a person has human flu and also gets bird flu… the two kinds of flu could mix and make themselves into a more dangerous one,” said Aphaluck Bhatiasevi, a WHO(世界卫生组织) expert.
To deal with this possible new flu pandemic, the Chinese government will use four colours media---blue, yellow, orange and red--- to warn people about what may happen.
Blue means that a new flu virus has been found in some people. But they are not ill. These people will be put in hospital.
Yellow means people with the new virus have become ill. The government will tell people about it and give advice.
Orange is when the new flu spreads from human to human among a small group. Then people can call a special phone number to report outbreaks(爆发). Schools and factories will be closed.
Red marks the most serious possibility. It means a big flu outbreak has begun.

Lots of people like diving into water, because they can explore the underwater world. But there is another kind of diving. Some people dive into the sky! This is really a very exciting sport. A skydiver goes high up in the air on a plane. Then he jumps off the plane and floats(飘) in the air with the help of a parachute(降落伞). A parachute is like a huge umbrella. It is put on the back of the skydiver. When the skydiver reaches a certain height, he will pull a string(细绳) and the parachute will open up in seconds and carry him gently(轻轻地) down to the ground. Skydivers like doing a lot of fascinate tricks in the air. After jumping off the plane one after another, they will try to stay in the air and hold each other’s hands. They can form different shapes.
Is it safe to do skydiving? Yes, as long as we receive right training. But sometimes, accidents do happen. In Canada, two skydivers were killed in 1991 when they jumped off the plane. Because their parachutes got tied up with each other, the parachutes couldn’t open up and both crashed down and died.
