They are placing chickens at fixed points all along their 2,500 km border with the United States of America.\nIt's not a joke, nor have the Canadians gone mad. They are using these chickens to see if the West Nile virus is still around. The virus infects birds, so the chickens have a chance of catching the virus and fall ill. The West Nile virus is spread among humans. It killed seven people in New York last year.\nCountries around the world are realizing that it may just be possible to stop certain kinds of people from entering their land. However, it is very difficult to stop viruses traveling from one end of the earth to another. When they travel to new places, they get used to the environment very easily and sometimes start destroying the local plant and animal life. These biological polluters are called smart polluters.\nThese smart polluters can be carried across borders of countries unknowingly. Just as we humans are travelling across the world more often than earlier, these biological polluters have also started journey much more. They slide into airplanes through their wheels. They dig into objects that travelers may be carrying from one country to another.\nThere are some good examples of how these polluters work. The water hyacinth of South America is blocking lakes in China and Africa. Tree snakes from Papua New Guinea are busy eating up some birds in the country of Guam, which breaks its natural balance.\nThat's why the customs officials in many foreign countries prevent people from bringing in a small plant, or an object made of wood that is in its natural form. The customs officials have these rules because these varieties of plants are special to certain places. The plants have the power to spread new illnesses among native plants and animals. Biological polluters always create problems in places where they do not belong.

They are placing chickens at fixed points all along their 2,500 km border with the United States of America.\nIt's not a joke, nor have the Canadians gone mad. They are using these chickens to see if the West Nile virus is still around. The virus infects birds, so the chickens have a chance of catching the virus and fall ill. The West Nile virus is spread among humans. It killed seven people in New York last year.\nCountries around the world are realizing that it may just be possible to stop certain kinds of people from entering their land. However, it is very difficult to stop viruses traveling from one end of the earth to another. When they travel to new places, they get used to the environment very easily and sometimes start destroying the local plant and animal life. These biological polluters are called smart polluters.\nThese smart polluters can be carried across borders of countries unknowingly. Just as we humans are travelling across the world more often than earlier, these biological polluters have also started journey much more. They slide into airplanes through their wheels. They dig into objects that travelers may be carrying from one country to another.\nThere are some good examples of how these polluters work. The water hyacinth of South America is blocking lakes in China and Africa. Tree snakes from Papua New Guinea are busy eating up some birds in the country of Guam, which breaks its natural balance.\nThat's why the customs officials in many foreign countries prevent people from bringing in a small plant, or an object made of wood that is in its natural form.

But be careful--the warm weather is also a hotbed for viruses and disease.\nThis March, the influenza A(H7N9) virus hit Shanghai, Anhui, Jiangsu and Zhejiang. It was reported that by April 11 at least 35 people had been infected with the H7N9 virus, and nine of them had died.\nThe influenza A (H7N9) virus is one type of influenza A H7 viruses. Influenza A H7 viruses normally spread among birds.\nThis is the first time human infections with H7N9 viruses have been reported in China. Earlier reports were about H5N1 and H1N1.\nAll the three viruses are influenza A viruses but they are not the same. H7N9 and H5N1 are animal influenza viruses that could infect people. However, H1N1 viruses can be divided into two groups. One group can normally infect people and the other normally infects animals. Also, H1N1 can spread from human to human, but H7N9 probably can't, according to the World Health Organization (WHO).\nMost people infected with H7N9 looked like they had the common flu. Some people had bad pneumonia . They suffered from a fever, a cough and shortness of breath.\nBut don't be afraid - it is not easy to be infected with the virus. One of the possible reasons is close contact with sick poultry waste. People may also be infected through breath, according to National Health and Family Planning Commission.\nHere are some tips from the WHO that can protect you from being infected.\nWash your hands with soap and running water before you eat, after you use the toilet, and after touching animals or animal waste.\nWhen coughing or sneezing cover your mouth and nose with a mask ,tissue or a sleeve.\nGet a good rest and do exercises, which will help make your body strong enough to stand up to the virus.\n\n<question>:\nWhat's the name of the influenza virus that hit Shanghai, Anhui, Jiangsu and Zhejiang this March?\n\n<options>:\nA It is the H7N9 virus.\nB It is the H5N1 virus.\nC It is the H1N1 virus.\nD It is A H7 virus.\n\n<answer>:\n",

You can read in the papers almost every week where a taxi driver turns in money or jewels people leave in their cars. One time in Brooklyn, I found a ring in my car. I remembered helping a lady with a lot of bags that day, so I went back to the store where I had dropped her off. It took me almost two days to look for her in order to return the ring. I didn't get as much as \"Thank you.\" Still, I felt good because I had done what was right.\nIn all my years of driving a taxi car, I have never had any trouble with the public because I always try to be nice to everyone. I try to be honest toward others. I have been trying this for a long time, and the longer I try, the easier it gets.\nI believe honesty is one of the greatest gifts there is. It's something that makes a man a good guy. This is also my way to live by.\n\n<question>:\n_ is the most important according to the passage.\n\n<options>:\nA Kindness\nB Experience\nC Money\nD Honesty\n\n<answer>:\n",
