When a virus gets into your body,your body works hard to fight against it.Blood rushes to your nose and causes a block in it,so you feel terrible because you can't breathe well,but your body is actually eating the virus.Your temperature goes up and you get a fever,but the heat of your body is killing the virus.You also have a runny nose to stop the virus from getting into your cells ()You may feel very uncomfortable,but actually your wonderful body is doing everything it can to kill the cold. Different people do different things to deal with colds.Some people might have chicken soup to help them get over the cold and some take medicine to stop different symptoms (of colds. There is one interesting thing to note-some scientists say taking medicine when you have a cold is actually bad for you.The virus stays in you longer because your body doesn't have a way to fight it and kill it.Bodies can do an amazing job on their own.There is a joke,however,on taking medicine when you have a cold.It goes like this:It takes about one week to get over a cold if you don't take medicine,but it takes only about seven days to get over a cold if you take medicine. 1.When is it easy for many people to catch a cold? 2.How many examples does the writer give to prove (your body works hard to fight against viruses? 3.Why do people have a runny nose when having a cold? 4.How long does it usually take to get over a cold? 5.What do you often do to deal with colds?
