This is an attack, not just on Paris, an attack not just on the people of France, but an attack on human beings and all the universal values we share. A series of attacks left at least 100 people dead in Paris on Friday, November 13th.
Reports said the shooting outside the small restaurant in Paris lasted between 30 seconds and a minute. The owner told French TV that a car drew up and its occupants fired on the crowd. At least a dozen–perhaps as many as 18–were killed. This Paris resident says,
“I’m a Muslim（穆斯林）, I feel totally apart from what these people
do. They’re not Muslims, that’s 100 percent sure. These are people who think differently.”
Many people came on Sunday–the third day after the attack–to pay their respects outside Le Petit Cambodge (\"Little Cambodia\"). People came with friends to gather outside the restaurant. They thought it was important for them to be there. They considered it an important way to show that they were strong and also in communicating. ( ) 47. How many people died in the attacks in Paris on November 13th? A. A dozen. B. 18. C. 100. D. More than 100. ( ) 48. The underlined word “occupants” in Paragraph 2 means “___________”. ( (

It is a cold and dry winter morning. When you wake up, you feel that your throat hurts. You begin
to sneeze（打喷嚏） and later you may cough. You must have a cold! Wait a moment. Could it just be a common cold or the flu (流感) that’s been going around?
A cold gives you a runny nose（流鼻水） and cough. But it’s usually easy to deal with. Some take medicine while others drink herbal tea（凉茶） or chicken soup. Usually you feel better after a week.
On the other hand, the flu can be much more dangerous. It usually gives you fever. Sometimes it

can cause death. According to an American magazine, the worst flu killed about 50 million people from 1918 to 1919.
Don’t worry. If you get a flu vaccine (疫苗), it can stop you from getting the virus (病毒). Flu vaccines work by giving the body a small amount of flu viruses. This causes your body to develop antibodies (抗体). So next time you get the flu, the antibodies should help you.
The flu virus changes every few years. Therefore, there are so many types of flu, such as H1N1 and H5N1. The antibodies for one type of flu can’t help us against all types of flu. That’s why we need to get the vaccine every year.
However, good health habits may also help stop you developing a cold or flu. Washing your hands often helps stop you from getting viruses. It is also important to get regular exercise and eat healthy food. All these can help you strengthen your immune system (增强免疫系统). ( ( (

It took eight minutes for shoppers to spend a billion dollars buying goods from China's largest online company, Alibaba（阿里巴巴）. It was during Singles Day （光棍节）— the biggest online shopping event in the world.

Singles Day is often described as the \"anti-Valentine's Day\" and falls on 11/11. Get it? Alibaba started the tradition in 2009.
