Tuesday/Week 3
n the UK, about 21 million people have allergies (过敏症), and about 5% of children have a food allergy. What is an allergy and why do people get them? Allergy Awareness Week is a chance to find out more about allergies.
An allergy is when your body reacts to something, wrongly thinking it is dangerous. "The body's immune system (免疫系统) mistakes something harmless, like food or pets, for a danger," says Holly Shaw, a nurse from Allergy UK. People can be allergic to many things: animal fur, plants, or foods like nuts or milk.
Allergic reactions can be different for everyone. A light reaction could be sneezing (打喷嚏), and itchy (发痒的) eyes and skin. A serious allergic reaction is called anaphylaxis. People could find it hard to breathe. They might cough or wheeze—breathe noisily and with difficulty.
Children might need to stay away from certain foods or places. Those with mild allergic reactions might use medicine or creams to calm the itching. People at risk of anaphylaxis often carry special medication. If someone has a serious reaction, tell an adult immediately for help.
Scientists don't know exactly why people are allergic to different things. Allergies are most common in children, and they sometimes run in families, too. A doctor can help find out if you have an allergy through tests. Although living with allergies can be tricky (棘手的), sometimes even scary, it shouldn't hold anyone back from enjoying life to the fullest.

答案
Tuesday
本文借“过敏宣传周”的契机向我们介绍了什么是过敏症、过敏症的反应表现，及如何应对过敏症。
1. A 细节理解题。由第一段第一句可知，在英国约有5%的儿童有食物过敏症，即在100个儿童里，约有5个儿童患有食物过敏症。
2. A 词义猜测题。由破折号后的内容“呼吸时发出响声且费力”可推知，wheeze意为“喘息”。
3. D 推理判断题。由倒数第二段第三句可知，有anaphylaxis风险的人通常会随身携带特殊药物。由第三段第三句可知，严重的过敏反应被称为anaphylaxis。由此可推知，一些人随身携带特殊药物，是为了控制严重的过敏反应。
4. C 细节理解题。由最后一段第二句可知，过敏反应在儿童中最常见，有时也具有家族遗传性。
5. D 主旨大意题。通读全文可知，本文主要介绍了什么是过敏症、过敏症的反应表现，及如何应对过敏症。由此可推知，“了解过敏”适合作标题。
