If you have any worries about your health, you should always consult your doctor!!!
Fact or myth?
Its difficult to ignore your mother when she tells you to wrap up warm or dry your hair or youll get a cold- but colds are not caused by the cold: they are caused by viruses! Walking around with wet hair or a T-shirt in winter may look silly, and will make you feel cold, but you will only get a cold or the flu, if you come into contact with an infected person. The best way to avoid viruses like these is to wash your hands regularly when theres a bug going around.
Despite the huge medical advances that have been made over the last century, the common cold is still incurable and medicine does little for the symptoms either. Antibiotics wont help as your cold is caused by one of over 200 viruses. The only time you may need them is if you develop a throat or ear infection. Otherwise, go to bed and drink lots of fluids and wait till you get better.
Exercise 6. Answer the questions.
a) What do mothers often tell their children?
b) What is the best way to avoid catching a cold?
c) When may you need antibiotics?
d) What is the best way to deal with a cold?

Being the eldest
The way I am today is a complete reflection of my position in the family.
When people ask me questions, I always feel I have to know the answer, because my brothers always assumed I knew everything.
I was the one who did everything first, like learning to read. I didnt always
want to be the first, but I felt I had to. I always helped with the housework. As I was
the only girl, my mom often used to say Jane, could you wash up? Jane, can you

make the supper?. Of course, my brothers were never asked.
I was completely aware of the power I had being the eldest, and in retrospect I
think I was probably very bossy, and in a way selfish, because I did everything myself and didnt give the others the opportunity. When my brothers grew up, it took me ages to accept that they were independent adults I still think of my brother Michael as twelve years old, and in fact hes a father himself now!
