题文

If you were on the street in Mexico today you might think you were in an operating room, surrounded by doctors. You could e many concerned people with masks (口罩) trying their best to stop the swine flu (猪流感). And the masks aren’t only being ud in Mexico. A friend of mine traveling from New York City to Florida was given a mask and a pair of gloves just after he reached the airport. And another friend went to get a haircut only to be faced with a hairdresr wearing a mask! But do the masks really work? Is covering your no and mouth the key to stopping the swine flu? To find out the truth, ABC’s reporter Sharyn Alfonsi talked with germ (细菌) expert Dr. Elaine Larn. It turns out that when you sneeze (打喷嚏) the air coming out of your mouth at a speed of one hundred miles per hour carries germs which can travel anywhere around you and make people around you infected (被感染). However, whether you become infected actually depends on the weather. As Sharyn reported, when you sneeze, the germs leave your body in small drops of water coming out of your mouth. If the weather is wet, the wet air will make the small drops bigger and heavier and they drop down towards our feet. If this happens, we won’t become infected. But if the air is dry, tho small drops can float higher up, making it possible for them to touch someone el’s no, mouth or their mask. Larn says the masks can stop the germs well but after a few hours, they start to get wet, holding a lot of germs they come across and causing you to breathe them in. The masks do work, but the key to stopping the germs is changing your masks often.小题1:According to Para.1, in Mexico you can e that ____.
