Item 2 Read the excerpt from the People & Rabies web page.

Rabies is spread through saliva, the wet stuff in your mouth. It's not spread by blood, urine, or feces. If an animal has rabies and bites you - or licks its claw before it scratches you - then you could get rabies, too.

You can't get rabies just by petting an animal with rabies.

If you're bitten or scratched by an animal with rabies, the good news is that there are shots you can take that can keep you from getting the disease.

It is safe to be around animals with rabies as long as they do not bite.

Humans can contract rabies through the saliva of infected animals.

There is a vaccine for humans that will prevent the spread of rabies.

One is unlikely to contract rabies by petting an infected animal.

read this excerpt from “incidents in the life of a slave girl.”

i went about my evening work with trembling steps. mr. flint twice called from his chamber door to inquire why the house was not locked up. i replied that i had not done my work. "you have had time enough to do it," said he. "take care how you answer me! "

i shut all the windows, locked all the doors, and went up to the third story, to wait till midnight. how long those hours seemed, and how fervently i prayed that god would not forsake me in this hour of utmost need! i was about to risk everything on the throw of a die; and if i failed, o what would become of me and my poor children? they would be made to suffer for my fault.

at half past twelve i stole softly down stairs. i stopped on the second floor, thinking i heard a noise. i felt my way down into the parlor, and looked out of the window. the night was so intensely dark that i could see nothing. i raised the window very softly and jumped out. large drops of rain were falling, and the darkness bewildered me. i dropped on my knees, and breathed a short prayer to god for guidance and protection. i groped my way to the road, and rushed towards the town with almost lightning speed.
