（二）各地中小学开展线上教育
  
  On January 27, in order to win the new pneumonia Resistance War（抗击新型肺炎战）, the Ministry of Education issued（教育部公布） a notice on putting off the start time of school in spring 2020. It was said that school should not start before March. The exact start time of school will depend on situations and further notices.    However, many parents are very worried that putting off the start of school may affect(影响） children’s studies. If they have such a long winter vacation, children will not learn any knowledge, read books or study at all. They may forget what they have learned before. Staying at home for a long time will make them keep eating, sleeping and playing, which seriously affect their physical and mental health.    In short, the close of school influences learning and develops bad habits, so how should we avoid these problems? Local education departments have also issued a notice, that is, to organize online teaching and create a network platform（平台）, where necessary courses will be shown every day, and online teaching will be given by excellent teachers of the subject, and students can learn at home through computer or mobile network.    It should be said that such a method is very good. It can not only keep students indoors and not worry about the infection（感染) of the disease, but also make them study at home, improve their learning ability, and truly achieve “no suspension of classes”. Both the platform itself and the recorded lesson resources are more useful, and are welcomed by parents and teachers.    Of course, except for learning at home, it is also necessary to teach children about health knowledge, especially how to keep away from touching virus and other knowledge popularization; at the same time, it is also necessary for children to do some physical exercises or some games, which is good for physical health at home.
1. Parents worried about putting off the start time of school because _______.   
 A. children may be infected by virus    B. they don’t like the idea of online learning    
C. children’s study may be affected    D. parents have no time to look after children
2. Except for learning at home, what is also necessary according to the writer?    
A. To keep playing online games.   
 B. To keep touching different people.   
 C. To do some physical exercises outside.    
D. To teach children about health knowledge.                          
 3. The underlined word “suspension” in Paragraph 4 probably means _______ .   
 A. plan        B. stop       C. growth           D. change
4. Which is TRUE according to the passage?   
 A. Students would rather go to school.  
  B. The date of going to school is decided.  
  C. Online teaching will help students study.   
 D. Parents believe children can teach themselves.                  
 5. What’s the best title for this passage?   
 A. A Special Way to Learn at Home    B. A New War with a New Chance   
 C. A Way to Keep Mentally Healthy    D. A Method to Make Parents Worried

答案 1. C 2. D 3. B 4. C 5. A

（四）心理“防疫”
Wearing a mask while sleeping at home sounds a little crazy.But Wu Keying did so during the novel coronavirus outbreak. “I feared that I would be infected. Now I know it’s not necessary to do so. But I am still worried about when the epidemic will end,” said the 13-year-old from Chengdu, Sichuan province. Being stuck inside makes her feel anxious.
 
In fact, many people have experienced feelings like Wu.Nearly 80 percent of people are deeply worried about the outbreak, while 40percent strongly fear it, according to a survey released on Jan 27 by theChinese Academy of Social Sciences.
 
These emotions (情绪) are normal for people who are going through stressful events, according to Wang Weihua, an expert on positive psychology (积极心理学). “Some stressful reactions (反应) can help us fight the virus,” Wang said. “We take more protective actions, such as wearing masks and washing hands often, for example.”
 
But if these feelings last too long, it will be bad for our mental (心理的) health, Wang added. So how can we stay positive?
 
First, we should learn to accept unexpected changes in life,wrote Xiong Kewei, a psychological consultant (咨询师) at Beijing Normal University. We might learn new lessons from these changes, like respecting (尊重) nature and being more responsible (有担当的).
 
Another useful way to stay positive is to stick to a normal routine (正常作息).
“The key is to take good care of the body, arrange a reasonable schedule, ensure adequate sleep and diet, and get the necessary rest and relaxation,” Zhang Hong, deputy chief physician of Wuhan Mental Health Center, told China Daily.

（九）疫情与公共卫生紧急事件
   The World Health Organization (WHO) has declared (宣布) the new coronavirus (冠状病毒) outbreak a global public health emergency after the spread of the disease across the world. WHO made the decision in its third meeting about the coronavirus, after it decided not to take such a step in the first two meetings.
    Officially called a Public Health Emergency of International Concern (PHEIC), it is considered to be a public health risk through the international spread of disease. It suggests a serious, sudden and unusual situation in which the world must act quickly.
    Since 2009, there have been a few global health emergencies, including the 2009 swine flu pandemic (猪流感) and the 2014 outbreak of ebola in West Africa.
    The new coronavirus has got attention because of its similarity to SARS which killed about 800 people across the world in 2002-2003. So far, the new coronavirus does not seem to be as deadly as SARS, but there have been more cases.    
    Its declaration could cause trade and travel restrictions (限制). Those who have made holiday plans might have their plans affected (受影响的) in some parts of the world.
    The WHO said its greatest worry was the potential (潜在性) for the virus to spread to countries with weaker health systems, who might not be able to handle (处理) it.
    “We are all in this together and we can only stop it together,” said the WHO’s Director General, Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus.

（十）山川异域，风月同天
    In late January, a donation of masks and thermometers from the Japan Youth Development Association in Tokyo to Hubei Province caused a stir on Chinese social media .

    The line comes from a seventh century Buddhist hymn by prince Nagaya, a politician from the Nara period (710-794)of Japan, titled “Embroidered on Kasaya Robes for good Karma”: Lands apart, sky shared. For the disciples of Buddha, to nurture good karma .

    Inspired by the Prince’s hymn, Jianzhen, decided to go on a voyage to Japan. After six attempts and the loss of his eyesight, Jianzhen finally arrived, and made a significant contribution to the spread of Buddhism in Japan.

（十一）垃圾分类
    If you live in Shanghai, you might have taken a “lesson” in sorting (分类) garbage, as the city introduced new garbage-sorting regulations (规章) on July 1, 2019.
    As China’s first city to carry out strict regulations on garbage sorting and recycling, Shanghai requires its residents (居民) to sort garbage into four categories (类别), namely recyclable, harmful, dry and wet waste. If people fail to sort their garbage properly, they can be fined up to 200 yuan.
    Since the regulation took effect, the amount of total daily waste in Shanghai has been reduced by an average of 15,500 tons, dropping 26 percent from the end of 2018, while the average daily weight of recyclables hits 4,500 tons, five times higher than the end of 2018, according to the Shanghai Landscaping and City Appearance Administrative Bureau.
    The city also rebuilt 21,000 waste-sorting stations and more than 40,000 waste bins have been updated (更新). The city’s waste collection and transportation system (运输系统) is complete, according to the bureau.
    “Proper waste sorting protects the environment and saves natural resources,” said Deng Jianping, director of the bureau. “Led by the central government, Shanghai is making efforts to develop long-term solutions to garbage management.”
    However, there have also been some problems. Some people complained that it is difficult to deal with wet garbage, as they are asked to remove wet garbage from its bag when dumping (倾倒). According to the sorting rules, the wet garbage must go in the wet waste bin and the bag must go in the dry waste bin.
    This separation is necessary, as it ensures that the wet garbage will decompose (分解) properly and become useful organic (有机的) waste, the bureau said.

（十二） 疫情让我们反思当下的城市生活方式
    COVID-19 has made people think harder about their relationship with nature. It has also raised questions about urban (城市的) lifestyles. The sharing economy (共享经济), working in open offices, living in crowded apartments and the food industry’s use of reusable products have made the perfect storm for a pandemic (大流行). 
    Although the sharing economy might be good – it’s cheaper to rent than to own – sharing spaces and objects are great ways to spread the virus. How does one do “social distancing (和他人保持安全距离)” when they are expected to share cars, bikes, apartments and even the same offices?
     The trend (趋势) of using open offices, which can save space, is working against us.  In this type of office, workers don’t have their own desk – everything is shared. Sometimes, computers and chairs are also shared, which is not hygienic (卫生的). Fortunately, more workers are working from home during the pandemic, but that won’t last forever. 
    Reusability (循环利用) is a common practice in the restaurant industry. Reusable cups and chopsticks are often used. Unfortunately, reusable products increase the chance of spreading disease. For example, Starbucks recently stopped refilling (重新装满) customers’ reusable cups in order to stop the spread of the virus. 
    People like to be social. But the virus has made this more dangerous. We have to be careful about how we interact (交往) with others for now. Perhaps we need to rethink about our lifestyles to reduce the spread of future pandemics.     
       
1. According to the author, the strong point of the sharing economy is that_____.
    A. it lasts longer
    B. it costs less   
    C. it’s popular
    D. it’s hygienic
2. Paragraph 3 is mainly about _____.
    A. how working at home won’t last long
    B. how shared offices can save space
    C. the hygienic problems of open offices
    D. the sharing economy trend
3. According to the author, restaurants can spread the virus easily because _____.
    A. everything is shared in many restaurants
    B. they use too much disposable tableware
    C. many restaurants have poor hygiene
    D. cups and chopsticks are often reused
4. The author probably agrees that _____.
    A. we need to change some of our lifestyles
    B. the sharing economy won’t last forever
    C. no one can stay out of the sharing economy
    D. we shouldn’t stay away from shared products

（十三）方舱医院走向世界，中国经验助力全球抗疫
    A temporary hospital has been set up by members of the California National Guard in Indio, California, in the US.    Feng Bangli, a resident of Wuhan, Hubei, began to have a fever at the end of January and suspected that he had been infected (感染) with the virus. He tried several times to be admitted to a hospital but failed. He eventually gave up and stayed at home, taking drugs prescribed (开药方) by doctors.    At that time, “too many patients were waiting to see doctors at every hospital, and it was not possible for me to get a bed,” said Feng. Days later, with the community staff’s help, Feng tested positive for COVID-19 and was sent to a makeshift hospital (临时医院) for treatment.    “Without such makeshift hospitals, many COVID-19 patients like me may never have found a bed,” said Feng, who recovered and was discharged (获准离开) from the makeshift hospital in Wuchang district at the end of February after staying there for 12 days.    Like Feng, more than 12,000 COVID-19 patients in Wuhan received treatment and care at 15 makeshift hospitals, which were converted (改造) from exhibition halls, sports stadiums and warehouses (仓库). These hospitals, which mainly received patients with mild symptoms (轻症), contained one in every four confirmed COVID-19 patients in the city, said Ma Xiaowei, minister of China’s National Health Commission.    “Building makeshift hospitals was a key decision made in the critical (关键的) moment when Wuhan was facing a formidable task of epidemic (疫情) control, and it has played an indispensable (不可获缺的) role in both prevention and treatment of the disease,” he said.    Makeshift hospitals have greatly eased pressure on designated (指定的) hospitals to receive and treat patients, which made it possible to treat and isolate (隔离) all people in need, said Xu Junmei, vice-president of Wuchang makeshift hospital. “They were the life vessels (生命之舟) during the peak of the epidemic.”    Makeshift hospitals have now been embraced (接受) in other countries. Eight makeshift hospitals are being built in Tehran, Iran, to fight against the virus. The one converted from the Iran Mall, the largest shopping mall in the country, is expected to have a total of 3,000 beds, according to People’s Daily.    On March 29, New York converted a grassy meadow (草坪) in Central Park into a makeshift hospital, where it will provide 68 hospital beds.    “Considering the ways we can increase hospital capacity right now is incredibly important,” Dr Andrew Ibrahim, a surgeon at the University of Michigan told Architecture. “If hospitals do become overwhelmed (压垮的), and new facilities (设施) need to be built up.” 
1. What point does the writer make by using Feng Bangli’s example?
    A. COVID-19 has infected a large number of people in a very short time.  
B. Hospitals should always be prepared for any unexpected situations.   
C. The COVID-19 outbreak happened suddenly without the slightest warning.  
  D. Makeshift hospitals have played an important role in the fight against COVID-19.
2. What does the underlined word “formidable” in Paragraph 5 probably mean?   
 A. new             B. basic    C. difficult        D. strange
3. Why did Wuhan build makeshift hospitals during the outbreak of COVID-19 , the followings are the reasons for it except_______.   
  A. it has greatly eased pressure on designated (指定的) hospitals to receive and treat patients.  
   B. it was needed for receiving and treating patients.   
  C. Wuhan has a poor medical system.   
  D. the designated (指定的) hospitals became overwhelmed
4. What did Dr. Andrew Ibrahim think of Tehran’s and New York’s recent measures?  
  A. They wasted resources.    B. They were greatly helpful.   
 C. They were not practical.    D. They would not be as useful as China’s.
5. What is the main purpose of the article?   
 A. To praise China’s quick response to the COVID-19 outbreak.  
  B. To call on other countries to copy China’s method of fighting the virus.  
  C. To show the value of building temporary hospitals to fight COVID-19.  
  D. To compare the measures different countries have taken to deal with COVID-19.

（十六）中国主粮充足
        
Rising grain prices may affect the international grain supply chain.
    To stop the novel coronavirus, some countries have banned (禁止) grain exports . Some people worry that this might affect the international food supply chain (供应链), the Paper reported.    On March 25, Vietnam, the world’s third-largest rice exporter, banned rice exports. The country mainly exports rice to the Philippines, China and several African countries. Similarly, countries such as Cambodia, Kazakhstan and Russia have also banned exports of certain agricultural (农业的) products.    The main problem with this is that some people have begun stockpiling (储存) food and other daily necessities. When supplies are not able to meet a sudden rise in demand, the prices of some products might increase in some local markets.    However, there is no need for China to worry, as it already has enough grain. According to Wei Baigang, an official from the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, China’s food grain output has hit more than 600 million tons for five consecutive (连续的) years since 2014. Record agricultural harvests have been recorded for 15 consecutive years.    China relies (依赖) mainly on domestic (国内的) grain production and only 2 percent of the nation’s grain is imported (进口). The global price increase has had a very limited influence on China’s food prices, Wei said.     “Therefore, both the amount and price of food are stable (稳定的) and there is no need to stockpile it,” he said at a daily news conference on April 4.    But for less developed countries, increasing prices might make society unstable and even cause hunger, the Paper noted. 
1. What did Vietnam ban on March 25?
2. What problem did the food export bans cause?3. Why doesn’t China need to worry about Vietnam’s grain export ban?4. Which countries are most likely to be influenced by the food export bans?5. Please summarize the story in a sentence.
参考答案：
1. Vietnam banned its rice exports
2. Some people have begun stockpiling food and other daily necessities.
3. Because China doesn’t rely much on imported grain.  
4. Less-developed countries.
5. Some countries have banned food exports during the pandemic, but there is no need for China to worry.

（十八）  南极热出新高度
    Antarctica has had its highest recorded temperature of 18.3°C, beating 2015 s record of 175c. The Antarctic Peninsula, where this week’ s reading was taken at the Argentine(阿根廷) research base Esperanza, is among the world’ s fastest warming regions（区域）, rising 3°C over the past 50 years. Some 87%of the glaciers（冰川） along its west coast are retreating（后退） rapidly. Professor James Renwick, a climate scientist at Victoria University, said,“The reading is sign of the warming that has been happening there much faster than the lobal average.”    Fellow expert Prof Nerilie Abram, who has carried out research at the peninsula’s northern tip, said,"It' s an area that’s warming very quickly, which is surely worrying many people.” The reading beats the previous March 2015 record on the earth 's southern continent by 0. 8°C ,according to the Argentine station Esperanza, which collected the data.    Some 87% of the glaciers along its west coast have shown an “accelerated retreat”in the past 12 years, it added.
