11、w of Man. “Its really not that different to how some societies react today to such a tragedy.”Not all animals are so aggressive toward their ailing neighbors. Sometimes its as simple as avoiding those who may infect you.When Kiesecker, a lead scientist in America, studied American bullfrog in the la

12、te 1990s, he found that bullfrogs could not only detect a deadly smell of infection in other bullfrogs, but healthy members actively avoided those that were sick.

17、loneCStay Away From UsDStay Home Stay HealthyDuring the holiday season, many of us feel pressure to find our loved ones the “perfect” gift. Why? Because gift-giving has long been considered a prime way to express love. However, recent research suggests that small acts of kindness, like a kind word,

18、hugging a child or receiving sympathy, make people feel most loved and supported.In the study, 495 men and women between the ages of 18 and 93 completed a questionnaire evaluating 60 possible ways that people can feel love. The storyboards included situations like spending time with friends, receivi

19、ng gifts, and spending time in nature. The survey also included negative interactions, like being controlled and criticized (批评) by others.The findings highlight the psychological benefits that close relationships can offer. In fact, study participants ranked human interaction as a more significant

20、expression of love than receiving material items, like presents. Connecting with others was also rated more highly than getting positive feedback on the Internet, indicating that people get the most support from personal human contact.“During the holidays，anxiety rises, making it harder to remain pr

21、esent with ourselves and others.

26、 lights up your holidays.CIt is not presents but presence that counts.DStress causes people to withdraw from others.Measles(麻疹), which once killed 450 children each year and disabled even more, was nearly wiped out in the United States 14 years ago by the universal use of the MMR vaccine(疫苗). But th

27、e disease is making a comeback, caused by a growing anti-vaccine movement and misinformation that is spreading quickly. Already this year, 115 measles cases have been reported in the USA, compared with 189 for all of last year.The numbers might sound small, but they are the leading edge of a dangero

28、us trend. When vaccination rates are very high, as they still are in the nation as a whole, everyone is protected. This is called “herd immunity”, which protects the people who get hurt easily, including those who cant be vaccinated for medical reasons, babies too young to get vaccinated and people

29、on whom the vaccine doesnt work.But herd immunity works only when nearly the whole herd joins in. When some refuse vaccination and seek a free ride, immunity breaks down and everyone is in even bigger danger.Thats exactly what is happening in small neighborhoods around the country from Orange County

30、, California, where 22 measles cases were reported this month, to Brooklyn, N.Y., where a 17-year-old caused an outbreak last year.The resistance to vaccine has continued for decades, and it is driven by a real but very small risk. Those who refuse to take that risk selfishly make others suffer.Maki

31、ng things worse are state laws that make it too easy to opt out(决定不参加) of what are supposed to be required vaccines for all children entering kindergarten. Seventeen states allow parents to get an exemption（豁免), sometimes just by signing a paper saying they personally object to a vaccine.Now, severa

32、l states are moving to tighten laws by adding new regulations for opting out. But no one does enough to limit exemptions.Parents ought to be able to opt out only for limited medical or religious reasons. But personal opinions? Not good enough. Everyone enjoys the life-saving benefits vaccines provid

33、e, but theyll exist only as long as everyone shares in the risks.12The first two paragraphs suggest that _.Aa small number of measles cases can start a dangerous trendBthe outbreak of measles attracts the public attentionCanti-vaccine movement has its medical reasonsDinformation about measles spread

34、s quickly13Herd immunity works well when _.Aexemptions are allowedBseveral vaccines are used togetherCthe whole neighborhood is involved inDnew regulations are added to the state laws14What is the main reason for the comeback of measles?AThe overuse of vaccine.BThe lack of medical care.CThe features
