A. But some experts believe that there is no relation between cold weather and catching colds. So why do we catch colds more easily during this season?
B. The common cold is a viral infection(病毒性感染) that can be caused by any of up to 250 kinds of viruses, the most common group of which are the viruses that hit the nose. Dr Jain says, "These viruses are transmitted through the nose and respiratory passages (呼吸道) by touch and by contact with a special air that is made when the patients cough and breath. "
C. In cold winter days, as you have probably noticed, catching a cold is common among people-- runny noses, sore throats, nothing quite like the common cold to make you feel uncomfortable and terrible.
D. Medical experts also say that there is no cure for the common cold and even special medicine for this cold is of no use. However, there are some good ways which can be of some help:☺ Wash your hands regularly☺ don't often touch your eyes, nose and mouth.☺ Don't share drinking glasses with anyone☺ Get enough sleep and you'll certainly become stronger to fight against the virus.
E. Dr Meenakshi, an Internal Medicine expert says, "One reason could be the truth that people are likely to stay indoors, so the virus can spread easily among people. Also the virus grows better in wetness. "

There are plenty of possible reasons why you don't have any flowers near you. Perhaps, you just don't like them. Or maybe someone nearby doesn't. Maybe you're at work, and flowers are not allowed. Assuming（假定） the problem is simply that you don't have time to go out and get flowers, you may be surprised to learn just how easy it actually is.
It's good to get flowers for yourself, but even better to be given them. I'm sure you know this, just as I'm sure there's someone special in your life who feels the same way. So why not take the chance to make someone happy, and get them some flowers? I know, you would, but it's just too much trouble. Well, that's where you're wrong!
It' s a good excuse, and while it might have worked in the past, I'm afraid it doesn't work any more. Perhaps you are really too busy to go into town and get some flowers. On the other hand, the fact that you are reading this clearly shows that you have enough time to go online. Nowadays, you can buy pretty well anything online, and yes that includes flowers. By the way, there's another point to consider here. Price. I'm sure you've noticed that you can usually get things cheaper if you buy online, and flowers are no exception（例外）. For the same price as a few roses, you could have a full bouquet of flowers picked and arranged by an expert.
So why are you still here? Go online, and hunt down some flowers! There are plenty of flower shops available(可得到的)， and you should have no trouble finding one that delivers near you, especially if you live in a city or large town. Then you're just a few clicks away from a beautiful bouquet.
