  Happiness is associated with smiling．But do we always smile when we are happy?

       During the Olympic Games in Barcelona in 1992，Spanish researchers analyzed the facial expressions of 22 gold medal winners at the medal ceremonies．The researchers were surprised to see that these medal winners didn't smile very much．In fact，throughout the different medal ceremonies，they only smiled about 10% of the time．But during the brief moment when the gold medal was put around their neck， the medal winners grinned （露齿笑） about 70% of the time．

The researchers interviewed the winners they had watched to find out how they felt．All the winners interviewed said that they felt intensely（强烈的）happy throughout the ceremony．

Though they were profoundly（衷心地）happy，they didn't smile a great deal．The researchers concluded that smiling was not the automatic expression of happiness．The fact that the gold medal winners smiled much more when they were actually being given their medals could be explained because，according to the Spanish researchers，smiling was a form of communication between individuals．The happy athletes were smiling at the people who were giving them gold medals．Perhaps we can support the findings of the Spanish researchers by making some observations of our own behaviors．When we are all alone，for example， do we smile at ourselves when we are happy? Probably not very often．If someone greets us with a friendly smile，do we respond with a smile? Yes，we probably do．When a friend gives us a beautiful present，will we show our appreciation with a smile? Yes，of course．But if we are sitting alone watching television，do we smile at a commentator （讲解员）who smiles at us?

The world hasn’t seen a pandemic（流行疾病）in 41 years，when the “Hong Kong” flu crossed the globe and killed about one million people worldwide．If H1N1 flu（甲型流感）reaches pandemic levels，what would happen next?

       The outbreak of SARS in 2003 rang alarm bells as potential pandemics．Although it jumped the “animal-to human” barrier，neither disease changed enough to enable human-to．Human infection．Strictly speaking，SARS did not become pandemics because it was too good at killing their hosts．For a pandemic，it needs to be able to maintain human-to．human contact without killing its host off．

       ”H1N1 flu is already a man-to-man disease，which makes it much more difficult to manage．

       And H1N1 flu appears much more infectious than SARS．

       But the WHO warns，it cannot say whether or not it will indeed cause a pandemic．According to experts，here’s what the world might see if there is another pandemic，based on past experience．

       The disease would skip from city to city over an 18-to-24 month period，infecting more than a third of the population．World health Organization officials believe as many as 1．5 billion people around the globe would seek medical care and nearly 30 million would seek hospitalization．Based on the last pandemic and current world population，as many as 7 million people could die．Hospitals will become overcrowded；schools will close；businesses will close；airports will be empty．Business will become very bad，as people avoid as much social contact as possible．

       Health facilities will become overrun with patients and there would be less-than-adequate staffing，as medical health professionals fall ill themselves and that would result in higher deaths．

       The very young and very old will likely be the most susceptible（易受感染的）to the illness．Experts warn，much is still unknown about the current H1N1 flu virus and its severity and it is too early to say whether it will lead to a pandemic．Right now，the focus is on finding answers and controlling the spread．

1．How many kinds of disease is mentioned in the passage?

       A．Two                B．Three               C．Four                  D．Five

2．Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?

       A．SARS didn’t change enough to enable sustained（持续的）human-to—human infection．

       C．A man with H1N1 flu can not infect another man easily．

       D．Comparing SARS and H 1N1 flu，SARS is not as infectious．

3．What can we know about the “Hong Kong” flu from the passage?

       A．It spread all around the globe and killed lots of people．

       B．It killed about millions of people．

       C．It killed about one million people in Hong Kong．

       D．Not the old but the young were susceptible to it and got killed．

4．What can be inferred from the passage?

       A．The H1N1 flu will skip from city to city over an 18一to一24 month period．

       B．Doctors and nurses will fall ill themselves，which will result in many more deaths．

       C．Every country is taking measures to stop the H1N1 flu from leading to a pandemic．

       D．The WHO and experts have known much about the current H1N1 flu virus．

The price of gas has been going up. We do not know when it will end. Many people want to know how they can save fuel(燃料)． The best way to save fuel is to change driving habits．

The accelerator(加速器), or gas pedal，has a lot to do with how much gas you use．The faster you drive, the more gas you use. Drivers should slow down a bit to save fuel. Driving at a steady speed helps to save much gas you use．Accelerating slowly to get to the speed you want helps save gas, too．

The more you drive your car．the more gas you use．Think about the places you need to go before leaving your home. You should run as many errands(差事) that you need to do as you can in one trip．Always try to pick the shortest route when going somewhere．

Cars that are in good working condition use less fuel. Take care of your car. Make sure the engine is running well and is tuned-up often. Have a mechanic check if something seems wrong．

Tires(轮胎) are important, too. Keep the tires inflated(饱满) properly on a car. It will help the car roll better. If a car's tires are worn, then they should be replaced．

Finally，think about using your car less．Walk or ride a bike if you do not have to go far．Carpool(合伙用车) or take public transportation(公交) when you can．Leaving your car at home really saves gas．
