     Doctors may now be able to stop many heart attacks. An important new study reports that doctors have
a new drug. This drug is called TPA. It may be better than any other heart drugs.
     Many doctors now use a drug called streptokinase. But this drug sometimes causes problems for patients.
It can even cause bleeding(流血)in the brain. Some doctors do not use streptokinase. Streptokinase can save
about 1/3 of the people with heart attacks. But TPA will save about 2/3.
     One reason TPA can help more people is because of time. This new drug is easier and faster to use. It will
give doctors more time in hospitals. Then they can study the problem well. People with heart problems can
also keep some TPA at home. When a heart attack starts, they can take some TPA right away. Then they will
have time to get to the hospital. This is important because about 860,000 people in the United States die before
they get to the hospital.
     This is another reason why TPA is good news for people with heart attacks. According to the study, it is
much safer; it doesn't cause other problems like streptokinase does. TPA works only on the heart. It does not
have an effect on the blood or cause bleeding.
     Doctors plan to do more studies about TPA. They need to test this new drug on many more people with
heart attacks. But in a few years, many doctors and hospitals will probably start using this exciting new drug.

Do you have a sore throat, a running nose and a headache? Do you keep coughing and sneezing? If you do, the chances are that you have a cold or perhaps flu---but which one? Although both colds and flu are caused by viruses, they are very different illnesses.

Colds, which usually last about a week, affect the nose most. They commonly cause a running nose and sneezing. Sometimes, they cause a headache, a cough and slightly aching muscles.

Flu is a much more serious illness and is caused by different groups of viruses. People with flu usually get all the symptoms(症状) described above. However, they also get a high fever, a dry cough and much worse aching. Fever is one of the characteristic symptoms of the flu for all ages. The symptoms also last much longer. Sometimes they don’t disappear for at least two weeks.

Flu can be a deadly disease. The elderly(年长的), who are weaker and less healthy than most younger people, can die from flu. This is one reason why old people are advised to have a flu injection(预防针) before the start of winter when flu is most common. This injection is inexpensive and definitely（明显地）worth it.

If you have a cold or flu, you must always deal with used tissues(手巾纸) carefully. Don’t leave dirty tissues on your desk or on the floor. Someone else has to pick these up and viruses could be passed on. And finally, remember to cover your nose and mouth when you sneeze! You don’t want to see the small drops of liquids blown(喷) out of your nose and mouth when you sneeze, do you? Disgusting(令人作呕), eh? Now you can understand why it’s a good idea to cover your nose and mouth when you sneeze!

In paragraph 4, we learn that ________.

A. flu injection can cause death B. most old people die from flu

C. flu can kill old people easily D. flu is most common in summer

Dealing with used tissues properly(正确地) is important because ________.

A. it helps keep your classroom tidy B. it prevents the spread of colds and flu

C. people hate picking up dirty tissues D. picking up lots of tissues is hard work

A. Both colds and flu last the same time.

B. Both colds and flu can be prevented by injection.

C. Both colds and flu are caused by the same viruses.
