I get a lot of letters at this time of year from people complaining that they
have a cold which won't go away. There were so many different stories
about how to prevent or cure a cold, it's often difficult to know what to do.
Although colds are rarely dangerous, except for people who are already
weak, such as the elderly or young babies, they are always uncomfortable
and usually most unpleasant. Of course you can buy lots of medicines which
will help to make you cold less unpleasant, but you must remember that
nothing can actually cure a cold or make it go away faster. Another thing is
that any medicine which is strong enough to make you feel better could be
dangerous. If you are already taking drugs for some other illness so always
check with your chemist or doctor to see whether they are all right for you.
And remember they might make you sleepy - please don't try to drive if they
do! Lastly, as far as avoiding colds is concerned, whatever you may be told
about magic foods or drinks, the best answer is to keep strong and healthy-
you'll have less chance of catching a cold, and if you do, it shouldn't be so
creatures. Seldom, furthermore, will a swarm occupy a mere square mile;
swarms more than 400 square miles in area have been recorded. A swarm
that size weighs more than 80,000 tons and numbers around 40 billion
insects eating the weight of the Queen Mary every day it is on the move and
it never stops. A million locusts take a tremendous toll and each day eat as
much as 20 elephants or 500 people. And their voracity is not only in
numbers; pound for pound the locust eats 60 to 100 times as much as a
human being.
1. Locusts

Unlike the eye, the ear has no lid, therefore noise penetrates without
protection. Loud noises instinctively signal danger to any organism with a
hearing mechanism, including human beings. In response, heartbeat and
respiration accelerate. In fact, there is a general increase in functioning
brought about by the flow of adrenaline released in response to fear. Because
noise is unavoidable in a complex, industrial society, we are constantly
responding in the same ways that we would respond to danger. Recently,
researchers have concluded that noise and our response may be much more
than an annoyance. It may be a serious threat to physical and psychological
health and well-being, causing damage not only to the ears and brain but
also to the heart and stomach. We have long known that hearing loss is
America's number one nonfatal health problem, but now we are learning that
some of us with heart disease and ulcers may be victims of noise as well.
1. According to the passage, people respond to loud noises in the same way
the man-made canal theory was proven to be only a myth.

The Moon revolves once on its axis each time it orbits the Earth, thus always
presenting the same face to earthbound observers. However, even to the
unaided eye this unchanging face shows two contrasting types of landscape
dark, plain-like areas of low relief, and brighter, decidedly more rugged
regions which cover about two-thirds of the surface. Early astronomers
mistakenly referred to the smooth dark areas as maria (or seas), giving the
name terrae (or lands) to the bright upland regions. The terms have persisted

Charles Eliot, taking over at Harvard in 1869 at the age of 35, pioneered a
break with the traditional curriculum. The usual course of studies at
American universities emphasized classical and humanistic courses,
classical languages, mathematics, ethics, and rhetoric; and each institution
prescribed a rigid program of required courses. Under Eliot's leadership,
Harvard dropped most of its required courses in favour of an elective system
and increased its course offerings to stress the physical and social sciences,
the fine arts and modern languages. Soon other institutes in all sections of
the country were following Harvard's lead. Eliot was also influential in
bringing about important reforms in professional education. He renovated
the Harvard medical and law schools, raising the requirements and
lengthening the residence period, and again the Harvard model affected the
other schools. Improved technical training in other professions accompanied
the advances in medicine and law. Both state and private universities
hastened to establish schools of architecture, engineering, education,
journalism and business. Although Harvard was one of the first universities
to found a graduate school, the recognized center for graduate study, based
