Here's What Doctors Want You To Know. 【文章】 Allergy season typically happens from early spring to late fall, when pollen is released into the air by trees, grasses and weeds. This can lead to uncomfortable symptoms, including a runny nose or itchy eyes. A new report published this month indicates that allergy season is becoming longer and more intense due to climate change impacting blooming patterns. Dr. Shuba Iyngar from Allermi reported that there are increasingly high pollen counts, making allergies worse. To mitigate these effects, several preventative measures can be taken. It is best to keep windows closed to avoid pollen coming in at night, and taking frequent showers to rinse any pollen off your body. In addition, healthcare professionals recommend starting to take medicine early on before symptoms become too severe. Nasal sprays, in particular, appear to be effective for treating seasonal allergies. While it may not be possible to completely eliminate reactions to pollen, these tips may help alleviate some discomfort. As the severity and duration of allergy season continue to increase, taking proactive steps to minimize exposure and treating symptoms with over-the-counter medication may help people who experience seasonal allergies cope more effectively. 【重点词汇】 1. allergy [ˈælədʒi] n. 过敏；过敏症 2. season [ˈsiːzn] n. 季节，时令 3. spring [sprɪŋ] n. 春天 4. late [leɪt] adj. 晚的，迟的 5. fall [fɔːl] n. 秋季 6. pollen [ˈpɑːlən] n. 花粉 7. release [rɪˈliːs] v. 释放，发行 8. air [eə(r)] n. 空气 9. tree [triː] n. 树 10. grass [ɡræs] n. 草，草地 11. weed [wiːd] n. 杂草；野草 12. lead to 导致 13. uncomfortable [ʌnˈkʌmftəbl] adj. 不舒适的 14. symptom [ˈsɪmptəm] n. 症状 15. runny [ˈrʌni] adj. 流鼻涕的 16. nose [noʊz] n. 鼻子 17. itchy [ˈɪtʃi] adj. 发痒的 18. eye [aɪ] n. 眼睛 19. report [rɪˈpɔːrt] n./v. 报告 20. publish [ˈpʌblɪʃ] v. 出版，发表 21. month [mʌnθ] n. 月份，一个月的时间 22. indicate [ˈɪndɪkeɪt] v. 表明 23. climate chang
