3 Read the section below. Then write the answers to the items that follow.
Keeping Germs Out of Your Body Germs are almost everywhere. They are in the air you breathe and on the things you touch. So why arent you sick all the time? Your body provides a defense against germs. In fact, your body has an entire systemyour immune systemto fight germs. Your immune systems first line of defense works to stop germs from entering your body. It creates barriers against them. One barrier is your skin. The layers of your skin keep many germs out of your body. The tears in your eyes are also barriers. They wash germs from your eyes. The hair in your nostrils keeps you from breathing in germs. The lining of your lungs helps you cough out germs. When the athlete on the bus covered her face, she was creating another barrier to block germs. The idea is to keep the germs that enter your body to a minimum. A. List the whos or whats in this section.
B. What is the most important who or what? Circle it in the section above. C. List important details about the who or what.
E. Look at the section above. Can you find a sentence that directly states this main idea? If you cannot find the main idea stated directly, think of how to state it clearly and correctly, using the fewest number of words. Write the main idea in the box below.

2 Use the WIN strategy. Write your ideas on the lines provided. Identify the main idea. If the
main idea is stated, underline it in the paragraph. These white blood cells make antibodies, which attack germs. If your body has seen that type of germ before, the antibodies remember the germ. They attack the germ and kill it before you get sick. If a germ is new to your body, though, you have a different response. Other white blood cells go to work. They make it hard for the germs to live and grow. They might raise your body temperature to kill the germs. You know this as fever. Or, they might cause swelling to kill germs. You know this as infection.
