The virus causes a disease called Ebola hemorrhagic (出血的 ) fever. The Ebola virus affects animals and people. It killed more than 200 people in the former Zaire in 1995. This year, the Ebola virus has killed more than 150 people in Uganda. The Ebola virus kills so quickly that the body’ s defense system has no time to act against it.

The disease spreads by people touching the body fluids of an infected person. No medicine or treatment now exists for the disease. Recently, however, American researchers announced progress in developing a medicine to prevent Ebola hemorrhagic fever in monkeys. The scientists gave eight monkeys a small but deadly amount of the Ebola virus. They gave an experimental vaccine (疫苗 ) to only four of them. The monkeys that did not receive the vaccine died within a week. The vaccine prevented the disease from developing in the four monkeys that received it. All the four monkeys were healthy six months later. The researchers said this was the first time a vaccine had protected animals similar to humans from the deadly Ebola virus.

B It’s hard to find a star shining brighter in Nashville than Kenny Chesney. Since he took off 15 years ago, this country musician has sold more than 25 million albums, has had sixteen No. 1 hits, won countless awards and had a sea of loyal fans who have made him the biggest North American concertticket seller. Kenny is certainly at the height of his career as he releases his Greatest Hits II album this week. It’s a collection of songs in which he says each takes him to a different place or event in his life. The most personal is the song I’m Alive, Kenny tells The Boot. Most of the songs on this record are really fun, but I wrote I’m Alive after my breakup with Renee.
