     If you don't keep yourself warm enough, winter can be a time of illness.
     During the winter months, people easily get colds and flu (流感). Many think they are the same, but
these two illnesses are different.
     Colds can stay with you for up to a week. You will have a running nose, sore throat, headache, cough
and a fever.
     Flu is more serious. You will feel sick very quickly. You will have a fever and a headache. Your body
will hurt and become weak. This could last for up to four weeks. 
     Is there any way to keep yourself away from colds and flu? Staying clear of people with colds or flu
may work.
     Try not to touch (触摸) your nose or eyes if you have been close to someone who has a cold. Wash
your hands, especially after cleaning your nose.
     Going out with wet hair can also give you a cold!
     If you catch a cold or flu, go to bed and rest. Doing this will help you get better. Drink lots of water.
Stay in a warm, well-aired room. If you have a headache, or your muscles hurt, take some medicine.

Dear Mom and Dad, 
     How's everything going?
     I'm having great fun at winter camp. But for the past two days, I'm not feeling very well. I don't know
what's wrong. Maybe I have ____ a cold. I have a ____ nose and ____ throat. Last night I couldn't sleep
because I had a _____, ____ and a slight ____. But don't worry. I've been to the doctor's. The doctor told
me that it was not ____, which would otherwise be more ____. He advised me to ____ lots of water, lie
down and ____ for a few days. He said I would get well in a week. Okay, so much for now.  
     Take good care of yourselves, too.

2 Dear Jenny,
     I want a mobile phone, but my parents won't buy me one. They say they won't be
able to pay the money for it. What should I do?

3 Dear Jenny,
      My dad has got a new job and he works long hours. He often has to work at weekends,
too, so we spend very little time together. I miss him. What should I do?

     A. You should discuss this problem with your parents. Have you talked to your father? Surely he misses 
you, too. Tell him how you feel, and perhaps he can spend more time with you. You can also ask your mother
to make something special when your father isn't working.
     B. You shouldn't worry so much. If you study hard, you'll do well. Try to relax, find time to go for walks
and eat three healthy meals every day. Don't drink coffee or tea because you won't be able to sleep. You
should drink a glass of hot milk before you go to bed and think in a positive (积极的) way. Good luck.
     C. Can you afford it? Can you pay for the huge bills (帐单) to run the mobile phone? Mabee you ahould
save your pocket money. Anyway, you are still at school and you should concentrate on your study. Why not
give up this idea?
