    The Flu That Shook the World

    　　In 1918, Americans were at war. They were fighting World War I in Europe. They were also fighting the flu(流行性感冒) .

    　　The flu was a dangerous enemy. It spread quickly and it killed quickly. Soldiers lived close together. They caught the flu from each other. About 112000 American soldiers died in World War I . More than half of these soldiers died from the flu.

    　　Many soldiers from other countries died also. Mast countries kept their flu deaths a secret. Spain did not, so the flu became known as the “Spanish flu. ”

    　　American soldiers brought the flu home with them. It swept across the country in 1918. There weren't enough doctors and nurses to go around. All together, 500000 Americans died of the Spanish flu.

    　　Today, the flu is still our enemy. During flu season, many people get sick. Some even die. Babies and old people are in special danger. They can get help, though. Doctors can now fight the flu with flu shots.

    　　The fight against the flu still goes on. Now we are winning the fight. The great flu of 1918 should never happen again.

    Dear Malia and Sasha,
          I know that you've both had a lot of fun these two years. You have been to many picnics and had all
    kinds of junk food your mother and I probably shouldn't have let you eat. But I also know that it hasn't
    always been easy for you and Mom. So now I want to tell you a little more about why I decided to take our
    family on this journey.
         When I was a young man, I thought life was all about me-about how I'd make my way in the world,
    become successful, and get the things I want. But then the two of you came into my world with those
    smiles and suddenly, all my big plans didn't seem so important any more. I soon found that the greatest
    happiness in my life was that you were so happy. And 1 realized that my own life wouldn't mean much if
    I couldn't make you two happy. In the end, girls, I ran for (竞选) President: because of what I want for you
    and for every child in the US.
         I want all our children to go to school so that they can learn and grow. I want them to have the chance
    to go to college-even though their parents don't have enough money. And I want them to get good jobs.
         I want us to see new technologies and inventions that improve our lives and make our earth cleaner and
    safer. And I want us to see no difference of different colors and areas because we are all equal (平等的).    
         I hope both of you will start to give others the chances you've had. You know, this country has given
    our family so much, so you have to, and really should, give something back. When you are doing something
    larger than yourself, you will realize how helpful you are.
         These are the things I want for you-to grow up in a world in which you can make your dreams come
    true. And I want every child to have the same chances to learn and dream and grow and get what you girls
    have. That's why I've taken our family on this great adventure.
          I am so proud of you. I love you more than you can ever know. And I am thankful every day because
    you behave so well when we get ready to start our new life together in the White House.
                                                                                                                                          Love, Dad
    1. From the letter we can see that the father is President of ________.
    A. the US
