People in the US thought Ebola was only a disease, accompanied with fever and found in Africa at the beginning.      then a man from west Africa died from Ebola at a hospital in Dallas, Texas. And two nurses      for him became infected(感染) with the virus, which made the US government publish new guidelines to      health workers．
Top American      have repeatedly said that most people have little chance of being infected．Experts have      that Ebola can only be spread through infected person’s body fluids — like blood．But it      many Americans are      what they have heard．
A recent survey found more than 80 percent of Americans believe that Ebola can be spread in many      , including air forced through the nose or mouth. The Harvard School of Public Health      the findings. The study also showed that most adults fear there will be a(n)      of Ebola in the United States soon.
     survey found that more than 70 percent of Americans would support calls to      travel to and from Ebola-affected parts of Africa.
Thomas Frieden heads the U.S．Centers for Disease Control and Prevention．When asked whether      officials had considered a travel ban, Mr．Frieden had      to say：“We won’t be able to check travelers for      when they leave or when they arrive. We won’t be able, as we do      , to take a detailed history to see if they were      when they arrive. When they      , we wouldn’t be able to impose quarantine（强加隔离）as we now can if they have high-risk touch.”
Last week, President Barack Obama urged Americans not to      what he called “ panic or fear ”.
This week，the administration announced that all travelers reaching the United States from some African nations are      to pass through one of five airports.

I know I should have told the headmaster at the time. That was my real 36 .
He had gone out of the study for some 37 , leaving me alone. In his absence I looked to see 38 was on his desk. In the 39 was a small piece of paper on which were written the 40 “English Writing Prize 1949. History Is a Serious of Biographies (人物传记)”.
A(n) 41 boy would have avoided looking at the title as soon as he saw the 42 . I did not. The subject of the English Writing Prize was kept a 43 until the start of the exam so I could not 44 reading it.
When the headmaster 45 , I was looking out of the window.
I should have told him what had 46 then. It would have been so 47 to say: “I’m sorry, but I 48 the title for the English Writing Prize on your desk. You’ll have to 49 it.”
The chance passed and I did not 50 it. I sat the exam the next day and I won. I didn’t 51 to cheat, but it was still cheating anyhow.
That was thirty-eight years 52 when I was fifteen. I have never told anyone about it before, 53 have I tried to explain to myself why not.
The obvious explanation is that I could not admit I had seen the title 54 admitting that I had been looking at the things on his desk. 55 there must have been more behind it. Whatever it was, it has become a good example of how a little mistake can trap (使陷入) you in a more serious moral corner (道德困境).
