Scientists have established that influenza viruses taken from man can cause disease in
animals. In addition, man can catch the disease from animals. In fact, a greater numbers of
wild birds seem to carry the virus without showing any evidences of illness. Some scientists
conclude that a large family of influenza virus may have evolved in the bird kingdom, a group
that has been on earth 100 million years and is able to carry the virus without contracting the
disease. There is even convincing evidence to show that virus strain are transmitted from place
to place and from continent to continent by migrating birds.
It is known that two influenza viruses can recombine when both are present in an
animal at the same time. The result of such recombination is a great variety of strains
containing different H and N spikes. This raises the possibility that a human influenza virus
can recombine with an influenza virus from a lower animal to produce an entirely new spike.
Research is underway to determine if that is the way major new strains come into being.
Another possibility is that two animal influenza strains may recombine in a pig, for example,
to produce a new strain which is transmitted to man.
1. According to the passage, scientists have discovered that influenza viruses______.
A. cause ill health in wild animals B. do not always cause symptoms in birds
C. are rarely present in wild birds D. change when transmitted from animals to man
2. What is known about the influenza virus?
A. It was first found in a group of very old birds.
B. All the different strains can be found in wild birds.
C. It existed over 100 million years ago.
D. It can survive in many different places.
