Dear Cindy,

I’m sorry to hear that Bird Flu (禽流感) is very serious in some parts of the world and some people have got the flu. We must take good care of ourselves and keep away from the disease. Could you tell me what people in China do to keep away from it?

Please write to me soon.

Yours,

Betty

Dear Betty,

I think Bird Flu is very bad. Many chickens, ducks and birds in our country got the disease. Some of them died, but some birds flew away and they might carry germs to other places. This is a serious problem. We must do something to solve it. Let me tell you what people have to do to keep away from the disease.

* Do morning exercises every day.

* Open the windows in the morning.

* Wash hands very often.

* Eat more vegetables and less meat.

* Go to bed early.

I think these are good for our health. Do you think so?

Yours,

Cindy
