Do you know star anise? It has a Chinese name “bajiao”(八角). You can find this spice(调味料) in almost all Chinese kitchens. Suddenly people around the world need the small fruit from which the spice is made, because of bird flu(禽流感).

Bird flu has made tens of millions of birds die and killed at least 60 people in Asia. Scientists say if flu changes to spread from person to person, it could kill millions!
A medicine called Tamiflu(达菲) is supposed to fight bird flu in humans. Roche, a Swiss company, developed it. But Roche says it hasn’t enough raw material(原料) to make lots of Tamiflu. The material is the Chinese spice star anise.
About 90% of the world’s star anise is produced in South China. The fruit is harvested(丰收) between March and May. Besides spice, people also use it as medicine.
People afraid of bird flu have begun to buy star anise and cook chicken and other meat with it more. But so far, no scientists say the spice could give protection(保护). Some scientists say that eating the fruit itself won’t help against bird flu.

Dear Betty,
I think Bird Flu is very bad. Many chickens, ducks and birds in our country got the disease. Some of them died, but some birds flew away and they might carry germs(细菌) to other places. This is a serious problem. We must do something to solve it. Let me tell you what people have to do to keep away from the disease.
* Do morning exercises every day.
* Open the windows in the morning.
* Wash hands very often.
* Eat more vegetables and less meat.
* Go to bed early.
I think these are good for our health. Do you think so?
Yours,
Cindy

    Everyone is talking about bird flu (禽流感). Yes it is a very dangerous disease that could make people very
sick. It will be a few months before we have good medicine for bird flu.
    But that doesn't mean you can't do anything to prevent it now.
    So far, all the people who have caught bird flu have been those who touched sick chickens or their droppings
(粪便). So it is a good idea for people to stay away from live chickens. "People used to (过去常常) go to the
markets to buy live chickens to eat, but now they have to change that habit," said Peter, an expert (专家) from
World Health Organization. But if you do touch a sick bird, remember to wash your hands carefully with soap
at once. Experts (专家) also say having good habits and a healthy body will help keep you safe from bird flu.
For example, don't buy or eat birds that have not been checked. Don't eat anything that has touched raw meat.
Also don't forget to open your windows often and do the sports. Getting enough sleep is also very useful for
fighting illness .If you feel sick, see a doctor right away (马上). At present (目前), no one in Shanghai has bird
flu. But WHO says children under 12 years old could easily get sick with bird flu.
    Try to stay away from people who have the flu, and always cover your mouth and nose when you cough or
sneeze.
