【解析】

这篇短文主要讲述了流感的危害以及预防流感的方法。

【1】句意：当你醒来时，你突然感到喉咙痛。

stomach胃；throat喉咙；back背；根据句意理解及后文You begin to sneeze（打喷嚏） and later you ___2___cough. You must have a cold!可知，这里表达的是“喉咙痛”，故选B。

【2】句意：你开始打喷嚏，然后可能咳嗽。

may be可能，情态动词+动词原形；maybe可能，副词；may可能，情态动词；根据句意理解及句子结构分析可知，空格后面的cough是个动词原形，所以这里直接用情态动词即可，故选C。

【3】句意：是普通的感冒还是流感？

common普通的；terrible糟糕的；serious严重的；根据句意理解及空格后的or the flu可知，这里表达的是一种对比，相对flu而言的，应该是普通的感冒，故选A。

【4】句意：但这通常很容易处理。

agree with同意；deal with处理；start with开始；根据句意理解及后文Some take medicine such as aspirin（阿司匹林）___5___others try home treatments like herbal tea or chicken soup. Usually you will feel ___6___ after a week.可知，这里表达的是“处理”，故选B。

【5】句意：一些人服用阿司匹林等药物，而另一些人则尝试家庭治疗，如凉茶或鸡汤。

because因为；after在……之后；while然而；根据句意理解可知，Some take medicine such as aspirin（阿司匹林）与others try home treatments like herbal tea or chicken soup.两句之间是转折关系，所以这里应该用while，故选C。

【6】句意：通常一周后你会感觉好些。

better更好的；more更多的；worse更坏的；根据句意理解及前句Some take medicine such as aspirin（阿司匹林）___5___others try home treatments like herbal tea or chicken soup.可知，这里表达的是“会好起来”，故选A。

【7】句意：另一方面，流感可能更危险。

interesting有趣的；familiar熟悉的；dangerous危险的；根据句意理解及前文的感冒描述及后句It usually gives you fever. Sometimes it can be deadly.可知，这里表达的是“危险的”，故选C。

【8】句意：造成约5000万人死亡。

millions百万；millions of数百万；million百万；根据句意理解可知，句中空格前面有具体的数字50，所以这里的million不能用复数也不能加of，故选C。

【9】句意：接种流感疫苗可以保护你免受病毒感染。

protect保护；take拿；separate分开；根据句意理解及前句的Don’t worry.可知，这里表达的是“保护……免遭”，英语是protect … from …，故选A。

【10】句意：这会导致我们的身体产生抗体。

develop发展，动词原形；to develop发展，动词不定式；developing发展，现在分词或动名词形式；根据句意理解及句子结构分析可知，这里是固定结构cause sth to do，用动词不定式做宾补补足语，故选B。

【11】句意：不幸的是，流感病毒每隔几年就改变一次。

Unluckily不幸地；Luckily幸运地；Comfortably舒服地；根据句意理解级后问the flu virus changes every few years.和The antibodies for one type of flu can’t protect us against all types of flu可知，这里表达的是“不幸地”，故选A。

【12】句意：因此，流感有很多种。

few几乎没有；much很多，修饰不可数名词；many很多，修饰可数名词复数；根据句意理解及前句the flu virus changes every few years.可知，这里表达的是“很多种类”，空格后面是复数名词，所以这里应该用many修饰，故选C。

【13】句意：不过，一种流感的抗体不能保护我们抵御所有类型的流感。

though不过，但是；but但是；however然而；根据句意理解可知，这里是表达一种转折，而however是用在句中的，空格在句末，所以这里应该用though，故选A。

【14】句意：良好的健康习惯也可能有助于预防感冒或流感。

hobbies爱好；customs风俗；habits习惯；根据句意理解及后句Washing your hands often helps protect you from viruses.可知，这是习惯，所以这里应该用habits，故选C。

【15】句意：定期锻炼和吃健康食品也很重要。

eat吃，动词原形；eating吃，现在分词或者动名词形式；to eat吃，动词不定式；根据句意理解及句子结构分析可知，这里是做句子主语，而and并列前面用的是doing形式，所以后面也用doing形式，故选B。

完形填空首先应该略读全文，加以适当猜测，对全文的大意有所了解，然后再逐句击破。因为文章的关联性，很多用词前后关联，单从一句出发不易找到答案。可能选项中不只一个单词符合语法，但只有一个符合文章的意思。逐步填空，对照前后，填空时不要一空一空地去填。要对照前后部分。比如第七空The flu on the other hand can be much more ___7___.，根据前文对感冒的描述Some take medicine such as aspirin（阿司匹林）___5___others try home treatments like herbal tea or chicken soup. Usually you will feel ___6___ after a week.以及后文Sometimes it can be deadly. The worst flu, the so-called Spanish Flu of 1918 to 1919, killed about 50 ___8___people, according to The Atlantic.的描述便可得出答案。
