When people move from one city or country to another, the spread of diseases may result. People often bring in germs which may not have been present there before. These new germs can spread quickly and cause previously unknown diseases. __________________________________. They become ill more easily and could even die. In turn, newcomers may catch diseases which were not present where they came from.

Correct Option: 3
  1. If they had gone back, they would have started an epidemic.
    Meaning: Returning travelers could bring diseases to their original locations, potentially causing outbreaks.
    Reasoning: This option is irrelevant to the context of local susceptibility to new germs. The focus should be on the local population's lack of immunity.
  2. Pollution also can lead to the spread of disease.
    Meaning: Pollution contributes to disease transmission.
    Reasoning: This option is unrelated to the context of diseases spread by people moving between regions. It introduces an unrelated concept (pollution) and disrupts the flow of the passage.
  3. If a germ is completely new to a region, people have no natural protection against it.
    Meaning: Locals lack immunity to new germs brought by newcomers.
    Reasoning: This option is correct. It logically follows the discussion about the spread of previously unknown diseases and aligns with the context of local susceptibility to new germs.
  4. Such changes may result in enhancing conditions for people who live in big cities.
    Meaning: Changes might improve conditions for urban residents.
    Reasoning: This option is irrelevant and contradictory to the context, which is about the spread of disease and not about improving living conditions.
