This then, was something new; a new influenza virus against wh

26、ich the people of the world had no ready help whatsoever.Having isolated the virus they were working with, the doctors now conducted tests on some specially selected animals, which contracted influenza in the same way as human beings did.

33、pening not only in the advanced societies but among the developing nations as they become industrialized.Now many scientists are worrying about the possibility of world pollution.

42、rtant people want to visit these Disney parks? One reason is the way they are treated once they get there.
