Antibiotics are effective in treating bacterial infections, not viral infections. Among the options provided, strep throat is the illness that can be cured by antibiotics, as it is caused by bacteria (Streptococcus bacteria).
The common cold, viral pneumonia, and chicken pox are caused by viruses, so antibiotics would not be effective in treating these conditions.
