  I knew they were out there somewhere, and I was determined to find them.

  Like most tourists who visit Ranthambore National Park in India, I went with just one goal in mind:to see tigers in the wild.

  Twice a day, all year round, 10 open-topped trucks are allowed to rumble along the park’s dirt roads for a few hours.It costs 360 rupees(about $8, U.S.)to buy a seat on one of the trucks.Glimpses of tigers are free.

  Of course, nothing is guaranteed.Forty tigers wander Ranthambore’s 388 square miles.But tigers hear and smell us long before we can see them.Some tourists I met near the park were lucky enough to see a handful of tigers up close during just one trip.Other people saw none, even after going out six or more times.

  Still, I couldn’t pass up(miss)the excursion(short journey).It was an opportunity that might someday disappear.Tigers are among the most endangered animals on Earth.In India, where about half of the planet’s remaining 7000 wild tigers live, tigers face a number of threats, especially from a growing human population.More than a billion people live in India today, and development is rapidly expanding into what was once largely tiger territory.

  Conservationists nonetheless(in spite of that)remain optimistic.“The tiger will not disappear,”said P.K.Sen, director of the Tiger and Wildlife Program for World Wildlife Fund-India(WWF-India).He was kind enough to meet with me in his New Delhi office on a Sunday, the only day I spent in the city during a recent 3-week trip to India.

  There’s no way, Sen said, that people will ever let the majestic cats die out.“The tiger has been a symbol of strength and might for thousands of years,”he said.

根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

    1   Such as runny noses, sore throats, nothing quite like the common cold to make you feel miserable.But experts believe that there is no link between cold weather and catching colds.  2  

  Internal Medicine expert, Dr Meenakshi Jain of Max Hospital says, “One reason could be that people are likely to stay indoors, so the virus can spread easily.  3  

  The common cold is a viral infection that can be caused by any of up to 250 strains of virus, the most common group of which are the rhinovirus that hit the nose.

    4   “They are transmitted through the nose respiratory passages, by touch, and by contact with airborne particles that are created by sneezing or coughing,” says Dr Jain.

  There is no cure for the common cold and antibiotics are of no help.However, there are some precautions which can help:

    5   In this case, you can protect your hands from getting germs.

  Don’t touch your eyes, nose and mouth, which can limit your chances of infection.

  Don’t share drinking glasses or utensils with anyone as this will prevent the spread of the virus.

  Make sure to eat enough fruits to boost your immune system.
A.Also the virus thrives in humidity.

B.Drink lots of fluids to avoid dehydration.

C.They are responsible for anywhere between a third and half of all common colds.

D.Get enough sleep and you’ll certainly feel better.

E.So why are we particularly vulnerable(脆弱的)this season?

F.Wash your hands regularly.

G.It’s winter and you have probably noticed germs are everywhere.
