The official count for child flu deaths has more than doubled since last week, from 20 to 42, by Monday. It hasn’treached the whole country, but e_perts warn that the case is coming, it’s justa question of when. ;For the American public in particular, I think it will be horrific,; said Greg Poland of the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota.There have beenthree in the past 100 years, in 1918, 1957 and 1968. There’s no way to tell inadvance when the ne_t one will appear, but the pattern does make e_perts think.It’s all up to a virus(病毒) that is variable and hard to tell, constantly changing its genetic(基因) makeup,said William Schaffner of Vanderbilt University, Nashville, Tennessee, US.There’s plenty tobe nervous about. It’s considered that in the industrialized nations alone, thene_t one is likely to send 1 million to 2.3 million people to the hospital andkill 280,000 to 650,000, according to the World Health Organization. New worries of the flu virus will get their start in the countryside of Asia. Thatis where the various strains (病种) hit chickens, other birds, pigs and humans. People have no naturaldefense against new viruses.China has notbeen hit by the flu outbreak. According to Liu Zejun, director of Beijing’s Disease Control Centre, the number of Beijing flu case is about the same as thatof last year and the viruses recently found here are quite different from thosein the US.

China will never be hit by the flue like that in the USAD. the Chinese good eating habits can prevent the diseaseBThe Europeans wanted colonies(殖民地) for several reasons.

France and Britain were always great rivals, each trying to e_tendits colonies.France meant to have a solid block ofAfrica from the Atlantic to the Red Sea. The British wished to have a solid land from the Nile in Egypt to the Cape in South Africa. Both countries sente_peditions to claim southern Sudan. The French, having crossed the Sahara fromGabon, reached the Upper Nile at Fashoda and raised the French flag. The British arrived eight days later. There was no battle, but the British took Sudan, through an agreement with the French Government. In 1956 Sudan became anindependent republic.59．The main idea of the passage is _________ .A. why and how the Europeans colonized some African countriesB. how the European countries robbed raw materials of the coloniesC. the settlement of the colonists in AfricaD. how the colonists fought against each other in slaving the native Africans60.
