听力原文:(With) Other viruses, such as smallpox and measles, and polioneuromere, the majority of people mount an immune response even if they never been vaccinated that clears the natural infection. With H1V, there are virtually no incidents of a person who has completely cleared the virus from their body, which means that although some people can control the virus better than others, the body is having trouble making a protective immune response.
What is the point the speaker is trying to make about HIV virus?
A.HIV vaccines trigger an immune response, but that response has proven inadequate.
B.The body's natural immune response to HIV infection could eradicate the virus.
C.The majority of people could mount an immune response even without being vaccinated that clears the natural infection from every virus.
D.Some people can control HIV virus better than others and make a protective immune response.

While the virus can spread through droplets propelled into the air when a cold-sufferer coughs or sneezes, surprisingly, this is not the most common route of transmission. Numerous studies have now shown that the overwhelming majority of colds are "caught" by hand contact. A cold-sufferer rubs her nose, thereby transferring the virus to her hand. Then a friend comes to visit.
"Don't kiss me," she cautions, so the friend steps back and presses her hand. The friend then wipes her own nose or eye--and several days later is stricken with a cold. Or parents pick up their child's discarded(丢弃了的)tissues and carefully throw them away, but fail to wash their hands afterward.
Cold viruses also can be transferred to objects--telephones, towels, plates--and remain infections for up to three hours. Frequent hand-washing--on the part of the cold-sufferer as well as other members of the household--will minimize the spread of viruses in this way.
Colds are caused by exposure to severe weather.

听力原文: Computer users are advised to adopt good computing practices to keep their computer virus-free. "Protecting our computers against virus attacks is very important nowadays when computers are commonly and widely used in our home and offices." said a spokesman for the Information Technology Services Department (ITSD).
"Typical payload of computer virus can range from cresting annoyances such as affecting the mouse, keyboard or other computer functions, to more destuctive actions like modifying or deleting files, or exposing secret information from the hard disk of the victim's computer." Some computer virus may format the hard disk to corrupt all data stored inside the computer.
"Besides, there are also computer viruses that will create mass mailing or scanning traffic not only to turn infected computers into a platform. for launching further attacks to other computers, but also to consume mailbox storage and network bandwidth."
"As a result, the network and computer systems will be overloaded and the normal operation of the network and computer systems will be seriously affected." said the spokesman.
He noted that the impact was particularly singnificant due to the current highly interconnected computer notwork environment." To avoid such inconveniences and losses, we should take effective computing practices to prevent our computers from virus infections .In fact, such practices are simple and easy." said the spokesman.

听力原文: Many people catch a cold in the spring time or fall. It makes us wonder: if scientists can send a man to the moon, [33] why can't they find a cure for the common cold? The answer is easy. There're actually hundreds of kinds of cold viruses out there. You never know which one you will get, so there isn't a cure for each one. When a virus attacks your body, your body works hard to get rid of it. Blood rushes to your nose and causes a blockage in it. You feel terrible because you can't breathe well, but your body is actually eating the virus. Your temperature rises and you get a fever, but the heat of your body is killing the virus. You also have a running nose to stop the virus from getting into your cells. [34] You may feel miserable, but actually y9ur wonderful body is doing everything it can to kill the cold. Different people have different remedies for colds. In the United States and some other countries, for example, people might eat chicken soup to feel better. Some people take hot bath and drink warm liquids. Other people take medicines to relieve various symptoms of colds. There is one interesting thing to note. [35] Some scientists say taking medicines when you have a cold is actually bad for you. The virus stays in you longer, because your body doesn't develop a way to fight it and kill it.
