原文及翻譯
Scientists develop a preventive flu shot for people to take as winter begins. This shot is not guaranteed to prevent the flu; scientists can only guess at which virus might be the most dangerous in the upcoming season. The shot protects against only that particular virus.
科學家們研制出一種預防流感的疫苗,供人們在冬季開始時使用。這種疫苗并不能保證能預防流感;科學家們只能猜測哪種病毒在即將到來的季節(jié)可能是最危險的。這種疫苗只能預防那種特定的病毒。
For those who do not get the shot, influenza spreads among them easily. It takes only a sneeze, a cough, or a touch. Victims frequently get ill from shaking hands, opening doors, or handling money.
對于那些沒有接種疫苗的人來說,流感很容易在他們之間傳播。只需打個噴嚏、咳嗽或觸摸一下。受害者經(jīng)常因握手、開門或處理錢而生病。
Most infected people will have a fever, sore throat, and cough, but the symptoms are often mild and last for only a week. For many others, however, symptoms can be so severe and prolonged that victims end up in bed for weeks, or in the hospital, or even in the cemetery.
大多數(shù)感染者會發(fā)燒、喉嚨痛和咳嗽,但癥狀通常很輕微,只持續(xù)一周。然而,對于許多其他人來說,癥狀可能非常嚴重和持久,以至于受害者最終在床上躺了數(shù)周,或者住院,甚至在墓地里。
