TOKYO -- The number of domestic（國內(nèi)）infections cases of influenza A/H1N1 in Japan hits 42 on Sunday after a total of 34 people in Osaka and Hyogo counties were confirmed to have been infected, local media reported.

    The total number of the infection in the country now stands at 46, including the first four cases contracted（感染）abroad. The country is now facing the risk of grass-root outbreak which could lead the WHO to raise its new flu pandemic alert（傳染病預(yù)警）to the highest level of 6 from the current 5, experts has warned.

    All of the 42 people had no record of overseas travel．Meanwhile, a total of 143 students at the Kansai Okura Senior High School where many infections in Osaka were found, have shown symptoms of influenza since around Monday, according to local media reports．The privately run school said it will be closed from Monday through Saturday．More than 1,000 educational facilities -- kindergartens, and elementary, junior and senior high schools -- in Osaka and Hyogo counties have decided to suspend （暫停） classes for certain periods following the confirmation of new flu infections in the counties, Kyodo News reported.

    The two counties have requested private schools to follow suit．Osaka Governor Toru Hashimoto held a meeting of a new flu task force on Sunday and decided to ask facilities such as movie theaters to suspend operations to prevent the spread of the flu．TV clips showed people in Kansai region started to wear masks in public spaces and rushed to drug stores for buying medicines．

    The Japanese government on Saturday shifted the stage of its new-flu action program from “a period of overseas outbreak” to “a period of domestic outbreak” and called for companies and schools in the areas concerned to allow individuals to avoid commuting（出行） during rush hours．

Ever thought you’d get to experience the smell of ancient Egyptian queen Cleopatra’s hair, or the scent（氣味）of the sun? Visitors to the Reg Vardy Gallery will soon be able to do just that．

The gallery, at Sunderland University, England, is holding a new exhibition, If There Ever Was．It focuses on scent rather than sight．

The innovative（創(chuàng)新的）idea is the brainchild of curator（館長）Robert Blackson．His inspiration came from reading the book Fast Food Nation．The book discussed the use of artificial chemicals to flavor things such as milkshakes, making them smell and taste like strawberries, when they’re not actually made from them．

A smell can often conjure up（召喚）memories such as school dinners or a childhood holiday by the sea, but the smells on display, will allow visitors to experience smells their noses won’t have been able to pick out before．

"There’s a whole variety of different smells, including some extinct flowers," explains Blackson．"Some have been gone for hundreds of years．"

One extraordinary fragrance（香氣）is the aftermath（災(zāi)難的后果）of the first atomic bomb, dropped on Japan on August 6, 1945．

There is also the smell of Cleopatra’s hair, based on incense（熏香）that was popular among ancient Egyptians．

The Soviet Mir space station, which burnt up in the atmosphere in 2001, smells of charred（燒焦的）material（the space station caught fire）．

Among the stranger smells is the "surface of the sun"．

"It is hard to sum up．It is an atmospheric smell, like walking into a room when the sun has been pouring in," says Blackson．"It gives a freshness, a sun kissed feel with a bit of metal．If you can say something smells hot, this is it．"

A team of 11, including perfume designers, have been working on recreating the smells for the exhibition．James Wong, a botanist at Botanic Gardens Conservation International, UK, helped in the recreation of the smells of four extinct flowering plants．

He did this by closely linking the extinct flowers with the smells of existing ones．With the help of historical reports of how the extinct flowers smelled, he was able to remix the aromas（芳香）．

The exhibition runs until June 6．Fourteen extinct and impossible smells are on display．

1．What might be the best title of the passage?

  A．The Reg Vardy Gallery                    B．Egyptian queen Cleopatra’s hair

  C．A visit to a new exhibition                D．The scents of ancient Egypt

  D．the smell of the aftermath of the first atomic bomb dropped on Japan ．

  A．Visitors go to Reg Vardy Gallery to enjoy beautiful sights．

  B．James Wong managed to remix the aromas by referring to some historical reports．

  C．The exhibition will last until July 6．

_1_ One of the best things you can possibly do is to start your own club. It’s great fun especially if you are the sort of person who feels there’s never anything to do during the school holidays．

The first thing you need to come up with is an idea for your club．_2_ Pets, clothes, pop music or dancing groups, sports, making things? The list is endless．   

Next you need some friends to be in your club with you ．_3_ All you need is three or four other people who are interested in the same things as you．

 _4 You should all sit down somewhere together with lots of pieces of paper and write down every name you can think up．That’ll keep you busy for ages．

At your first meeting you should make up a rule book．And the first rule should be no grown-ups or little/big brothers or sisters! The best clubs are always secret!

Now you have just about everything you need, except membership cards．These are very important and again you can speed a lot of time making them．5 Why not leave some space for a photo of yourself ? That will make the membership card really look like it．

So there you are, get clubbing! Once you get started you’ll think of loads of more interesting things to do!

A．That’s easy．

B．Enjoy your own club!

C．Invite a designer to join you．

Last winter vacation, some of my classmates decide to travel with their friends, while I chose

to take part-time job to gain experience or earn some money．I learned from my teacher that a

nearby company was looking after students with good handwriting to write addresses on

envelope．The pay were 10 cents per envelope．I headed for the company, feeling sure I would easy

finish 300 envelopes in five hours and to earn the money．Actually, I only finished 200．Now, I
