【解析】

试题分析：文章大意：本文主要讲的是专家们研究得出结论：冬天了各种病菌在温度低的情况下比较活跃，也容易引起疾病，通过举例感冒的传染让我们知道如何避免。

1.G 根据下一句：Such as runny noses, sore throats, nothing quite like the common cold to make you feel miserable. But experts believe that there is no link between cold weather and catching colds.可知：这里讲的就是冬天，然后举例子流鼻涕，喉咙疼容易带来病菌。

2.E 根据上一句：But experts believe that there is no link between cold weather and catching colds.可知：专家认为冷天气和患感冒是没有联系，然后就提出：我们身体脆弱就是这一原因，同时下文提到这一内容。故E正确。

3.C 根据上一句：“One reason could be that people are likely to stay indoors, so the virus can spread easily.”一个原因可能就是人们可能呆在户内因此病毒容易传播，所以下文应该提到，病菌对任何是冷的地方容易感染疾病。

4.A 根据此空后面：鼻病毒主要通过触摸以及打喷嚏或咳嗽产生的空气飞沫传播，经由鼻腔和呼吸道进入体内。这句话是对上一句话的解释，故选A。

5.F 根据下文“In this case, you can protect your hands from getting germs.”在这种情况下，你可以保护你的手以防感染病菌。故此空应该讲到与手有关的内容，故F正确。
