  A picture, a calendar or even a balloon may be the best way for millions of people living in China’s vast country areas to learn about AIDS, one of the biggest threats to public health in the world today.

  China has decided to use user-friendly methods including exhibitions, VCDs and TV programmes to spread knowledge of the disease across the nation to try to keep it in check.

  Educating people nationwide about AIDS is the top priority(优先权)to prevent the disease from getting out of hand.The farmers will be given knowledge in the easiest way that they can understand.?

  A recent survey from the commission(调查团)of more than 7000 people in China showed that nearly 20 percent of them had never heard of AIDS before.Just over 71 percent said they knew AIDS was highly infectious(传染的), but most of them had no clear idea of how the disease could be spread.Just over 62 percent said they knew they could do things in advance to prevent them catching AIDS but they didn’t know what these measures were.

  The month-long survey, carried out last December, talked to people in seven countries and cities across China including both developed coastal areas and the less-developed inland areas.The interviewees ranged from 15 to 49 years old, and country residents(居民)were about 63% of the total surveyed.?

  Chinese people, especially those in the country, have very little knowledge about what AIDS is all about, not to mention prevention and treatment.By the end of last year, there were 22 517 known HIV/AIDS cases in China.However, more than 6 000 000 people in China have been infected.

  Since 1985, China has discovered 880 patients with AIDS-466 of them have died.Sharing needles, prostitution(卖淫)and contaminated blood transfusions(输血传播)are major ways for HIV to spread.A lack of education has been the biggest difficulty against nationwide efforts to prevent AIDS, especially in the countryside.

阅读理解,阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。

  Of course, the main difference on the Chinese dinner table is chopsticks instead of knife and fork, but that's only superficial.Besides, in decent restaurants, you can always ask for a pair of knife and fork, if you find the chopsticks not helpful enough.The real difference is that in the West, you have your own plate of food, while in China the dishes are placed on the table and everyone shares.If you are being treated to a formal dinner and particularly if the host thinks you’re in the country for the first time, he will do the best to give you a taste of many different types of dishes.

  The meal usually begins with a set of at least four cold dishes, to be followed by the main courses of hot meat and vegetable dishes.Soup then will be served(unless in Guangdong style restaurants)to be followed by staple food ranging from rice, noodles to dumplings.If you wish to have your rice to go with other dishes, you should say so in good time, for most of the Chinese choose to have the staple food at last or have none of them at all.

  Perhaps one of the things that surprises a Western visitor most is that some of the Chinese hosts like to put food into the plates of their guests.In formal dinners, there are always “public” chopsticks and spoons for this purpose, but some hosts may use their own chopsticks.This is a sign of genuine friendship and politeness.It is always polite to eat the food.If you do not eat it, just leave the food in the plate.

  People in China tend to over-order food, for they will find it embarrassing if all the food is consumed.When you have had enough, just say so.Or you will always overeat!
