22、reaten to do sth.to distract from sign up (for sth.)Back Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome(AIDS)was diagnosed in the United States in the late 1970s.Since then,AIDS has killed more than 204,000 Americans half in the past few years alone.Another 185,000 of the one million infected with the HIV viru

23、s are also expected to die.Nearly half of those diagnosed with the virus are blacks and Latinos.Women and youth in rural Southern communities now constitute the fastest growing segment of people with AIDS.Despite such alarming numbers,the federal and state governments have been slow in implementing

24、programs to stop the spread of AIDS.In place of government inactivity,a number of local organizations have emerged.One organization,the South Carolina AIDSEducation Network,formed in 1985 to combat the growing number of AIDS cases.Like many local organizations,this organization suffers from a lack o

25、f money,forcing it to use its resources creatively.To reach more peoplein the community,some AIDS educational programs operate out of a beauty shop.The owner hands out AIDS information to all her clients when they enter the shop and shows videos on AIDS prevention while they wait for their hair to d

28、AIDS：Speak to your community in a way they can hear.Many communities have a low literacy rate,making impossible passing out AIDS literature and expecting people to read it.To solve this problem,ask people in the community who can draw well to create low-literacy AIDS education publications.These boo

29、ks use simple,hand-drawn pictures of“sad faces”and“happy faces”to illustrate ways people can prevent AIDS.They also show people who look like those we need to educate,since people can relate morewhen they see familiar faces and language they can understand.As a result,such books actually have more e

30、ffect in the communities where they are used than government publications,which cost thousands of dollars more to produce.Train teenagers to educate their peers.Because AIDS is spreading fastest among teenagers in the rural South,the stylists have established an“AIDS Busters”program which trains you

34、afe measure to guard against the virus.Like no other plague before,the AIDSepidemic threatens to wipe out an entire generation and leave another without parents.We must not let cultural,racial,or social barriers distract us from the job that must be done.Nor can we let political inefficiency stop us

35、 from our task.This is an undeclared war that everyone must sign up for in order for us to win.We simply cannot let people continue to die because we dont feel comfortable talking about AIDS.Everyone must become an educator and learn to live.BackDespite the spread of AIDS,no cure for it and lack of
