Ⅲ.短文理解
Every person has his or her unique smell. The smell can even be used to tell if you are healthy, according to HowStuffWorks. Diabetes(糖尿病), for example, can make a person’s body smell like bad apples. Yellow fever smells like a butcher shop, and liver(肝) disease causes the breath to smell fishy.
These smells all have to do with diseased cells(细胞). A diseased cell gives out different chemicals to a healthy cell. As these chemicals change, the body’s smells change, too, especially the sweat, blood and breath.
The smells of disease aren’t new. The real news is about using smells to find disease. For example, a woman in Scotland noticed her husband’s smell was changing. It became more musky(麝香味的) as his
