The Return of Dracula

      There were two little boys who loved horror movies very much. They said, ”scary movies give us a lot of excitement and pleasure.”

      “No! We have grown up. All those wolves and Dracula are a bluff and don’t scare us anymore, Grandma,” both replied.
      Throughout the movie, Dracula appeared as an ugly bloodthirsty vampire, who always preyed upon lonely men, women and children. Watching Dracula, the children felt the same fear as what the victims in the movie really felt.

How Bread is Made

      Almost everyone eats bread daily, especially for breakfast. Bread making is not a complicated task. You only need flour, water, yeast, sugar, salt, oil, butter and an oven.
      Choosing good flour is the first step in making bread. There are two kinds of flour, soft and hard. Hard flour, made of winter wheat, is  a better choice for making bread because it produces bread that has a better texture and taste.
      Then, lukewarm water, yeast, sugar and salt are mixed with the flour to make dough. Yeast is microscopic organism that is capable of producing carbon dioxide. It can make the dough rise or expand. Both sugar and salt give flavor to the bread so that it tastes nice. They however, have different effects on yeast.

Pandemic

      There are differences of opinion on the avian flu. Some say this could claim 150 million deaths, but others believe the current alarm on avian flu to be unwarranted as there is no proof it can spread between human.
      According to the chief of the United Nations, 150 million people could die from the disease if a pandemic strikes. One of the most frightening aspects of a human flu pandemic arising from avian influenza would be its unpredictability. It’s difficult to estimate the death toll should the H5N1 virus mutate into a form that could be easily transmitted between humans. It is not possible to predict whether a pandemic would occur once, or if it would repeat. However, epidemiologists recommend that governments take every possible precaution against the threat of bird flu seriously.
      Contrary to all the dire predictions about an avian flu pandemic, some ecologists dismiss the current panic unsubstantiated guess work. One ecologist contends that H5N1 virus still remains a bird virus and no scientific evidence yet exist human-to-human transmission. There are billions of people across Asia, and only 118 of them have been infected by avian flu. So, how do they know that 150 million or more people could die because of avian flu? The global panic, according to the ecologist, is the result of “scare tactic” created by politicians, medical officers and the media.

      It’s premature to predict the outcome of avian flu until health scientists confirm the possibility of human-to-human transmission. The advice is to keep cool and not panic because if you do, you will weaken your resistance and reduce your immune system.


24.  What does “Pandemic” means?
  1. A disease that only spreads among birds.
  2. An illness which is caused by animal.
  3. A disease which is globally widespread.
  4. A flu which affects only Asia
e.       A disease that kills birds.

25.  If pandemic broke out, how many people would be killed globally?
  1. 118 people.
  2. 500,000 people.
  3. About 150,000 people.
  4. About 150 million people.
e.       Half of the world population.

26.  What is the best precaution against avian flu?
  1. Evacuate people to other countries
  2. Stay at home, close all doors and windows.
  3. Kill all the chickens and birds.
  4. Keep cool and don’t panic.
e.       Don’t eat any chickens and birds.

27. What does the ecologist say about H5N1?
  1. Million of people will perish because of H5N1.
  2. It is a highly contagious disease.
  3. There is no scientific proof of human-to-human transmission.
  4. H5N1 is a human virus
e.       H5N1 is a pandemic.

28. Which of the statements below is true?
  1. H5N1 is a human virus.
  2. A pandemic is not a contagious disease.
  3. An epidemiologist is a doctor who specializes in birds.
  4. Avian flu is not curable.
e.       H5N1 is only a bird virus.
