3.The disease Ebola is spreading in West Africa.The situation frightens both local citizens and travelers.There is no vaccine or special treatment.It is difficult to stop Ebola from spreading.It moves easily from person to person.The disease strikes its victims through direct contact with the blood or other fluids from the body of an infected person.
The bodies of victims still contain the virus days after they die.Local traditions and burial and funeral customs also make the sickness hard to control.Doctors say it is important to identify an Ebola case early to prevent others from becoming infected.Patients suffer from high body temperature,bleeding and diarrhea(腹泻).
Only a few prevention measures exist.The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in the U.S.suggest staying away from countries with confirmed Ebola cases.People at increased threat include those working in animal research,health care workers and others caring for patients in the community.
In the past,cases of Ebola have been confirmed in the Republic of the Congo,C?te d'Ivoire,Democratic Republic of the Congo,Gabon,Sudan,and Uganda.
Doctors advise careful protective measures if you must go to an area where Ebola exists.
If Ebola has been identified directly around you,the C.D.C.and W.H.O.strongly suggest wearing protective clothing.Cover your face and hands.Goggles can protect the eyes.Try to remove Ebola germs with cleaners that fight infection.

分析 本文介绍了埃博拉病毒的一些基本情况,包括传播途径以及传播的控制方式.
解答 1.Through direct contact with blood or other fluids from the body of an infected person.考查细节理解.根据"It moves easily from person to person.The disease strikes its victims through direct contact with the blood or other fluids from the body of an infected person."可知,病毒是通过直接接触被感染者的血液或其他体液来传播.故填"Through direct contact with blood or other fluids from the body of an infected person.".
2.The virus,local traditions and burial and funeral customs.考查细节理解.根据"The bodies of victims still contain the virus days after they die.Local traditions and burial and funeral customs also make the sickness hard to control"可知,由于病毒本身以及当地传统葬礼的习俗,导致病毒难以被控制.故填"The virus,local traditions and burial and funeral customs.".
3.High body temperature,bleeding and diarrhea.考查细节理解.根据"Patients suffer from high body temperature,bleeding and diarrhea(腹泻)."可知,感染病毒的特点是高体温、出血和腹泻.故填"High body temperature,bleeding and diarrhea".
4.People working in animal research and caring for patients in the community and health care workers.考查细节理解.根据""可知,从事动物研究和护理的人以及卫生保健工作处的工作人员受到的威胁最大.故填"People working in animal research and caring for patients in the community and health care workers.".

Dr Hartas led the research.She said:"Filial(子女的) dynamics such as emotional closeness to parents and cultural capital were better predictors than more school-driven parent-child interactions."Factors relating to family emotional closeness,bullying,friendships,homework,extra-curricular activities and perception of parental interest in the child's education were examined.The researchers measured responses to questions about a variety of topics such as visiting art galleries,discussing books at home,the number of evenings spent doing homework,relationship with siblings and quarrelling with parents.
Dr Hartas and her team found that the willingness to solve problems was a strong predictor of educational aspiration.Adolescents who indicated they were less confident at handling problems were 30% less likely to rate gaining GCSEs important.In addition those who expressed a lower level of general well-being were 18% more likely to choose not to go to university.Closeness to parents was an indicator of attitude towards GCSEs; those who did not feel emotionally close to their parents were two times higher to consider GCSEs unimportant.However,emotional closeness to parents was not found to be significant in predicting a desire to attend university.
What the researchers termed‘cultural capital'or participating in cultural activities also appeared to affect the desire to study further.Those who weren't exposed to cultural activity were 14% and 20% respectively less likely to consider university or GCSEs as important.Those who did go to museums,galleries,concerts etc.were found to be 23% less likely to consider training or employment post-16.
Dr Hartas said that these findings had significant implications for family and educational policy,especially with regard to"raising aspirations and reducing early school leaving."They also raised the issue of reconsidering the role of the home environment as a web of emotionally and intellectually charged relationships between parents and children rather than an extension of the school day.
Quality time rather than study time improves teens'educational aspirations | |
(71)Findingof a recent study | There is a high (72)possibility/probabilitythat teenagers spending quality time and (73)participatingin cultural activities with their parents are willing to further their studies. |
(74)Factorsaffecting the desire for further study | Being (75)emotionallyclose to parents can better predict that teenagers will motivate themselves to study. |
The more (76)confidence/willingnessthe adolescents have to solve problems,the (77)strongertheir educational desire will become. | |
It seems that teenagers who have (78)accessto cultural activities desire to study further. | |
Implications of the research | With the research's help,we can raise teenagers'aspirations and prevent them (79)leaving/quittingschool early. |
The role of the home environment should be reconsidered as an emotional and intellectual relationship web (80)insteadof a school day extension. |
