When you feel a sneeze or cough coming on, covering your mouth prevents the spread of germs. You probably knew that.
But how to cover your mouth is very important. You might use tissues(纸巾), and put your used tissues into the bin. "If you don't have tissues, you should sneeze into your elbow, not your hand, even if you are used to doing that." The doctors advised.
"If somebody sneezes into his hands, those germs will be passed on to other people, or other objects that people touch." said Dr. Hill.
Germs are most commonly spread by sneezing and coughing. When they land on your hands, they are passed from hands to things like bills, door knobs(扶手), elevator buttons（电梯按钮）and other surfaces. At the same time, the people around you can touch them.
This isn't nagging（唠叨）. The Centers for Disease Control also suggest that sneezing and coughing into your elbow is necessary. Even the New York City subway officers ask the passengers to "cough or sneeze into elbow or use a tissue."
"The suggestion was taken seriously about 10 years ago. However, most people didn't pay much attention to it. That means the adults may have missed the advice. But children are often taught in school the right way to cough or sneeze." Dr. Benjamin said.
To be clear, people can't keep away from all the risks in this way, but it's the best choice. At the same time, we'd better wear masks and often wash our hands. "Hand washing is one of the most important things people can do to keep healthy." Dr. Hill said.
36.According to this passage, when sneezing or coughing, you'd better NOT .
A.sneeze into your elbow
B. cover your mouth with tissues
C. use your hand to cover mouth
D. put the used tissues in the bin
37. If you sneeze or cough into hands, germs can spread through the following activities EXCEPT ___ .
A. B. C. D.
38.Which is NOT true according to the passage?
A. The New York City subway officers ask passengers to use a tissue.
B. The adult may be used to sneezing into their elbow.
C. The children are often taught in school the right way to cough or sneeze.
D. Wearing masks is a good way to keep away from germs.
39. What's the main purpose of this article?
A. To tell us the correct way to cover mouth when sneezing or coughing.
B. To tell us how to prevent the spread of germs.
C. To tell us it's necessary to sneeze or cough into elbow.
D. To tell us how to keep away from all risks.
40. In which layout of the newspaper can we find this kind of passage?
A. Health
B. Sports
C. Business
D. Education

六、阅读表达（共5小题，满分10分）
阅读下面的短文，根据要求完成文后各小题。
As teenagers, you have many dreams. These dreams can be very big, such as winning the Nobel Prize, or they can be small. You may just want to become one of the ten best students in your class.
Once you find a dream, what do you do with it? Do you ever try to make your dream true?
Follow Your Heart by Australian writer Andrews tells us that making our dreams true is life’s biggest challenge (挑战).
In fact, everyone can make his dream come true. The first thing you must do is to remember what your dream is.
Don’t let it leave your heart. Keep telling yourself what you want. Do this step by step and your dream will come true faster because a big dream is, in fact, many small dreams.
You must also never give up your dream.
There will be difficulties on the road to your dreams. But the biggest difficulty comes from yourself. You may think you’re not very good at some school subjects, or it is impossible for you to become a writer. These kinds of thoughts stop you from getting your dream, the book says.
You need to decide what is the most important. Studying instead of watching TV will lead to better exam results, while saving five yuan instead of buying an ice cream means you can buy a new book. As you get closer to your dream, it may change a little. This is good as you have the chance to learn more skills and find new interests.
61. Translate the underlined sentence into Chinese.
62. Find out the sentences from the passage that stand for “the biggest difficulty comes from yourself”.
63. What should you do if you want to make your dream come true? (至少两条)
64. What’s the main idea of the last paragraph?
65. Give a proper title to the passage.
