28、 are harmful to the environment, such as using poisonous cleaners. Throughout the month of April, Canadians are being asked to “Give It Up for Earth Day,” Earth Day has been celebrated every year on April 22 since 1970. Earth Day Canada president Jed Goldberg says that as people become more environm
29、entally aware, they want to find ways to reduce their environmental influence, not just celebrate one special event. “Earth Day is a great launching pad for thinking about environmental action every day,” said Goldberg. “Choosing healthier options, even for the short term, can lead to thinking about
30、 the influence of our decisions for a lifetime.” Thats the reason behind the “Give It Up for Earth Day” campaign. Its designed to encourage healthy habits that benefit people and the planet. It challenges everyone to help create a healthier world by making changes in their daily routine. “We wanted
31、to plan an actiontargeted campaign that will give people a chance to act on their concern for the environment in a positive way,” said Goldberg. The campaign has identified four daily actions that can add up to huge environmental savings. They include pledging (保证) to turn off the TV, give up the us
32、e of poisonous cleaners, reduce consumption of consumer products and cut out meat. At the end of April, all of the pledges will be recorded and converted (转化) into the number of TV hours not watched, dollars not spent on unnecessary items, electricity saved, greenhouse gas emissions (排放) avoided by
33、cutting out meat, and poisonous chemicals produced from homes and landfills. “What were trying to achieve this year for Earth Day is to give people a chance to do something that is meaningful and 9measurable, ” said Goldberg.56The aim of the campaign mentioned in the passage is to _. A. enable peopl
34、e to save more money for future use Bhelp people develop environmentally friendly habits Cprevent people from making changes in their daily routine Dwarn people against reducing consumption of consumer products 57Which disagrees with the spirit of “Give It Up for Earth Day”?ASwitching off TV.

Did your parents tell you that you had a reaction as an infant or child, so you should never take it again? Has it been so long since you had a reaction to penicillin that you dont remember what
36、 happened? If you fit any of these descriptions or are just not sure if you have penicillin allergy, theres good news for you: Chances are, you probably dont have it.Between 10 to 20 percent of Americans believe they have a penicillin allergy, but a recent study at Mayo Clinic found that only 10 per
37、cent of those people are truly penicillin allergic. In other words, 9 out of 10 people who think they have penicillin allergy are avoiding it for no reason. Even in people with documented allergy to penicillin, only about 20 percent are still allergic 10 years after their initial allergic reaction.
38、Its not necessarily a permanent condition.Why is this important? Arent there many other antibiotics you can use if you have penicillin allergy? Penicillin has been around since 1928. Penicillin and its related medicines include amoxicillin, methicillin and amoxicillin-10clavulnate. These medicines a
39、re highly effective treatments for many bacterial infections, such as strep throat and ear infections. Of course, there are alternative antibiotics, but these are often much more expensive and carry a higher risk of side effects. Typically, these alternative antibiotics are broad-spectrum, meaning t
40、hey fight many types of bacteria, both good and bad. That can lead to development of drug-resistant bacteria, or deadly “superbugs”. This increases the risk for all of us in the future of not having an effective antibiotic to treat our infection.How do you find out if you have penicillin allergy? Bo
41、ard-certified allergists can test you. First, the allergist will get a history from you about your possible allergy. Typical questions include: How long ago did you have the reaction? What type of reaction occurred, and how soon after you took the penicillin did the reaction appear? The testing is d
42、one on the forearm by pricking the skin with a needle. If the results are negative and there is no reaction, penicillin will be injected in the skin. These tests are not painful, and results are available in 15 minutes. A positive reaction may lead to some swelling and itching where the test was pla
43、ced, which usually goes away within an hour.In very rare cases, an allergic reaction occurs. This can include hives, swelling, wheezing and/or difficulty breathing. The allergist is trained to treat this rare condition quickly if it happens. If all skin testing is negative, you may be given an oral
44、dose of penicillin in the office. The oral drug challenge is used to verify that you dont have penicillin allergy. Usually, youll be observed in the office for 30 minutes to make sure you have no problems.If you find out you dont have a penicillin allergy, notify your physicians that its now safe fo
