Scientists say Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) is caused by a new virus from the family of corona viruses (冠狀病毒), which also causes the common cold.
WHAT ARE THE SYMPTOMS?
The World Health Organization says the main symptoms of SARS are high fever (over 38℃), dry cough, shortness breath or breathing difficulties. Changes in chest X-rays, which are indicative of pneumonia (肺炎), also occur. SARS may be associated with other symptoms, including chills, headache, muscular stiffness, loss of appetite, malaise, confusion, rash and diarrhea.
Health experts say the disease has an incubation period (潛伏期) of between two-to-seven days, with three-to-five days being more common, before victims start showing flu-like symptoms.
HOW DANGEROUS IS IT?
The mortality rate (死亡率) appears to be between 3 to 5 per cent. In Hong Kong, at least, those who infected invariably develop severe pneumonia, which can cause numerous complications. The victim's condition can deteriorate (惡化) very quickly in as little as five days.
WHAT IS THE TREATMENT?
There is currently no specific cure for the disease. But doctors worldwide have been treating it with ribavirinan anti-viral drug
and steroids (類(lèi)固醇). Doctors say if treated early mast patients without other serious illnesses can recover.
HOW DOES IT SPREAD?
WHO (世界衛(wèi)生組織) and Hong Kong experts say the virus spreads through droplets by sneezing or coughing and such direct infection (傳染) can usually happen within a radius of around three feet.
The virus can also spread indirectly as it can survive outside of the human body for three to six hours. Contact with any object that is tainted by droplets containing the virus, for example, a contaminated phone, could lead to infection if a person then touches their eyes, nose or mouth.
Health experts have not ruled out that it could be airborne (空氣傳播的), which infinitely raises the contagious nature of the virus and would make it far harder to contain (控制).
1.Which of the following is NOT considered as one of the symptoms of SARS?
[ ]
2.It is possible that a person will be infected with SARS if ________.
[ ]
A.they touches their nose after contacting with a contaminated phone.
B.they don't wash their hands twice a day.
C.they don't know the contagious nature of the virus like health experts.
D.they don't go to a doctor at once when they catch a cold.
3.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
[ ]
A.Even though there is currently no specific cure, the doctors can treat SARS with an anti-viral drug.
B.Before victims show flu-like symptoms, SARS has an incubation period of between two-to-seven days.
C.That SARS could be airborne has not been ruled out by health experts from WHO.
D.Doctors believe that every victim without other serious illnesses can be cured.
4.From the information given in the passage we can deduce that ________.
[ ]
A.SARS is a type of pneumonia which is caused by influenza.
B.When an infected person travels, he can not spread the virus to other passengers on his flight.
C.In order to control the spread of the disease, patients should be placed in an isolation unit.
D.Wearing a mask is not a good way of keeping off SARS.

The world hash’t seen a pandemic(流行疾�。﹊n 4 1 years,when the”Hong Kong”flu crossed the globe and killed about one million people worldwide.If H1N1 flu(甲型流感)reaches pandemic levels,what would happen next?
The outbreak of SARS in 2003 rang alarm bells as potential pandemics.Although it jumped the”animal-to·human”barrier,neither disease changed enough to enable human-to.Human infection.Strictly speaking,SARS did not become pandemics because it was too good at killing their hosts.For a pandemic,it needs to be able to maintain human-to.human contact without killing its host off.
”H1N1 flu is already a man-to-man disease,which makes it much more difficult to manage.
And H1N1 flu appears much more infectious than SARS.
But the WHO warns,it cannot say whether or not it will indeed cause a pandemic.According to experts,here’s what the world might see if there is another pandemic,based on past experience.
The disease would skip from city to city over an 18-to-24 month period,infecting more than a third of the population.World health Organization officials believe as many as 1.5 billion people around the globe would seek medical care and nearly 30 million would seek hospitalization.Based on the last pandemic and current world population,as many as 7 million people could die.Hospitals will become overcrowded;schools will close;businesses will close;airports will be empty.Business will become very bad,as people avoid as much social contact as possible.
Health facilities will become overrun with patients and there would be less-than-adequate staffing,as medical health professionals fall ill themselves and that would result in higher deaths.
The very young and very old will likely be the most susceptible(易受感染的)to the illness.Experts warn,much is still unknown about the current H1N1 flu virus and its severity and it is too early to say whether it will lead to a pandemic.Right now,the focus is on finding answers and controlling the spread.
