Instructions: Read. Then write True or False for each statement. Correct the false statements.
Tiny Invaders

The germs that make people sick are everywhere. You can't see them, but they're
there. They're sitting on your desk. They're hiding on your computer's keyboard.
They're even in the air that you are breathing.

There are two types of germs: viruses and bacteria. Viruses use the cells inside animals
or plants to live and multiply. Viruses cause illnesses such as influenza, also known as
the flu. Bacteria are tiny creatures. Some bacteria are good. They can help your
stomach digest food. Other bacteria aren't as good. They can cause sore throats and ear
infections.

Once germs are inside your body, your immune system—the body's way of
preventing illness—tries to protect you. How does it do that? Some cells in the body
actually eat germs! Other cells make substances called antibodies. There is a different
antibody for each kind of germ. Some antibodies stop germs from making you sick.
Others help your body find and kill germs. After a germ is destroyed, the antibodies
stay in your body. They try to protect you if the same kind of germ comes back.

How can you stop these tiny invaders from making you sick? Your skin is the first
defense against germs. One of the easiest ways to prevent some illnesses is simply by
washing with soap and water. But germs can still enter the body through small cuts in
the skin or through the mouth, eyes, and nose.

You can also help your immune system to fight germs by getting vaccinated. Vaccines
are medicines. They contain dead or weak germs that cannot make you sick. Instead,
they cause your body to make antibodies. If the same germ ever shows up again, then
your antibodies attack it.

oneself to sunlight, as too much sun can increase the risk of skin cancer. Overall, incorporating a few
