Read the passage and choose the best answer to each statement/ question.

Most sore throats are caused by an infection that treatment with antibiotics cannot cure. But with simple remedies, the patient normally gets better in 4 or 5 days.

Tonsillitis, however, usually starts with a sore throat which causes pain in swallowing. With children – and some adults – there may be fewer and the patient is obviously not feeling well. It may be possible to see white spots on the back of the throat.

Sometimes a sore throat may occur with the common cold, and with influenza, there may be dryness of the throat, pain on coughing, and loss of voice.

Treatment:
Aspirin: To help relieve the pain on swallowing and the fever (if there is one). Use aspirin tablets dissolved in water so that the patient can gargle before swallowing. Repeat the treatment every 4 hours.
Drink: Encourage the patient to drink plenty.
Steam: if there is a pain in the throat on coughing, breathing in steam may help.
Children:
Young children, who may not be able to gargle, should be given aspirin dissolved in water every 4 hours in the right dose for their age. At one year: A single junior aspirin
At five years: Half an adult aspirin
At eight years: One whole adult aspirin

When to see the doctor:
If the sore throat is still getting worse after 2 days
If the patient complains of earache
If the patient’s fever increases
If the parent of the patient is worried

What difference is there in the way adults and their children should be treated with aspirin?

My name is John, and this is my story. Last year just before Christmas my family and our cousins and uncle and aunt decided to go to Perth for holiday. We went in two cars but when we were about halfway there my uncle wanted to turn round and come back. He said it was too far, and it was terribly hot too. One day it was 48°C. Even at night it was really hot. Anyway, what we decided to do was to drive back about 160km to a place where the train went through. Then we put both cars on the train and we all went to Perth by train. That was fun. It was a good train.

 We had a good time in Perth but we had to cut our holiday short. You see, while we were there my grandmother (my mother's mother) in Melbourne died. Most of us flew back but my Dad and my uncle came on the train with the cars and then had to drive back to Melbourne from Port Pirie.

It was a really strange holiday because nothing went the way we planned it.

When did John's family go to Perth?

The idea of a driverless car is not new. Now there are already cars on the road that can park themselves. But a truly self-driving car, one that can drive itself, is being tested by scientists and engineers. Self-driving cars have already been tested on public roads. These cars not only record images of the road, but their computerized maps view road signs, find alternative routes and see traffic lights even before they are seen by a person. By using radars and cameras, the cars can analyze information about their surroundings faster than a human can.

In some of the tests, the car leans the details of a road by driving on it several times, and when it is time to drive itself, it can identify when there are pedestrians crossing and then stops to let them pass by. Self-driving cars could make transport safer for all of us by eliminating the cause of most of today’s accidents.
