The novel coronavirus (新冠病毒) made this year’s Spring Festival holiday very different for most of us. Many places in China began a first-level emergency (突发事件) response to the virus in mid-January, calling for people to stay at home. Following these rules, most people gave up family gatherings during the Spring Festival and canceled any festive celebrations. “It’s the quietest Chinese New Year I’ve ever had,” Xin Jingrong, a 14-year-old student from Nanning, Guangxi told TEENS.

On Feb 3, Zhao Junyan, a Junior 2 student from Shanghai, brought 15,000 masks from Indonesia back to China, People’s Daily reported. Zhao, while traveling in Jakarta, collected the masks with his uncle, who works in the city. The 15-year-old donated (捐赠) all of the masks to Cangnan, Zhejiang, his hometown. “When a country is in trouble, everyone is responsible to help,” Zhao said to the media. “What I have done is what an ordinary Chinese person can possibly do.”

The novel coronavirus pneumonia (NCP) has already made tens of thousands of people sick. Where did the virus come from? Scientists say it probably came from bats.
Bats can carry and transmit more than 60 viruses that can infect humans， Live Science noted. They include the world’ s deadliest viruses，such as Ebola and HIV. Due to their strong immune systems (免疫系统)，bats are able to host these viruses and not get sick. At the same time，the viruses keep developing inside the bats to create new variants (变体). These variants can then infect new hosts，such as other wild animals.
Pangolins (穿山甲)，for example，might be an intermediate host (中间宿主) for NCP，according to a recent study by Chinese scientists. This means that bats might have given the virus to pangolins，with pangolins then spreading it to humans.
Wild animals like snakes，hedgehogs (刺猬) and bamboo rats also carry various viruses. But since they live in the wild，there should be few chances for humans to come into contact with them and get infected—unless the animals are eaten or used to make animal products. When people hunt， buy and eat wild animals， they can introduce viruses to the rest of the population.
But this doesn’t mean that we should kill wild animals. Each species has a role in the eco-system (生态系统) and all of them are important in keeping a natural ecological balance. The lesson we can learn from disease outbreaks is to respect and protect animals and to live in harmony with them instead of hunting，killing，or eating them.
1.Why can bats host many viruses without getting sick?
A.Because these viruses are not deadly.
B.Because the viruses are kept in balance.
C.Because they have strong immune systems.
D.Because they can spread the viruses to other animals.
2.The underlined word“harmony”in the last paragraph probably means .
A.danger B.peace C.pain D.surprise
3.According to the story，what lesson should humans learn?
A.Research more about wild animals. B.Exercise regularly to stay healthy.
C.Stop keeping animals as pets. D.Don’t buy or eat wild animals.

The novel coronavirus (新冠病毒) has changed our lives. In many countries, it has also changed the way people greet each other. To help stop the spread of coronavirus, people give up their usual greeting styles and invent safe ways. Let's take a look.
1. Lean forward (倾身向前), touch faces and make a sound. French people's favorite way of greeting. But when the virus is going around, too many kisses are not good. An expert gives everyone in France a suggestion: simply looking into a person's eyes can be a greeting. It's not as romantic as kissing, but it's safe.
2. Like the French, Italians are also romantic people. When they meet, they always hug or kiss each other. Recently, an Italian grandma made a video to help everyone fight the disease. According to her, if you want to say hello to others, do not hug or kiss. Instead, you can close one of your eyes and give them a wink (眨眼). Isn't it cute?
3. It's a very Australian thing to put your hand out to shake hands. But if you do this, the virus can jump from one person to another. Now a health official (官员) in Australia says a pat (拍打) on the back would be better. But it also has some problems. For example, it's a bit impolite if you do this to your teacher. What do you think?
4. People in Iran often shake hands when they meet. But a recent video shows that an interesting way to greet others is now popular in Iran. In the video, three Iran men wear masks and put their hands in their pockets. They don't shake hands, but try to "shake" feet.
5. An official from the WHO suggested that we use three greetings: waving hands, Thai "wai" (泰式合十礼) and bumping elbows (碰肘礼).
A.The advice from the WHO.
B.No kissing, even if you are French.
C.Is the foot shake the new handshake?
D.Pat on the back.

The World Health Organization (WHO) has announced the novel coronavirus (冠状病毒) outbreak a global public health emergency (突发事件) 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. 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 novel coronavirus has got attention because of its similarity to SARS which killed about 800 people across the world in 2002-2003. So far, the novel 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 influenced in some parts of the world. The WHO said its greatest worry was the potential (潜在性) for the virus to spread to counties with weaker health systems, who might not be able to deal with it. “We are all in this together and we can only stop it together,” said the WHO’s Director General, Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus.
When the virus hit China, many companies that make cars, smartphones and clothes started making face masks, too. Daddy Baby is a baby care company. It can make 700,000 masks each day. “We believe each mask we produce may save one more person,” said Lin Yangting. He is a manager at the company. When fighting the novel coronavirus, time is important. To save more lives, thousands of people work day and night. They build hospitals quickly, as well as make and transport medical things at a high speed. The surprising speed is a result of China’s unique system (独特的角度). With the Chinese speed, China has saved many patients.

A.Spread the coronavirus across the world.
B.Announce the coronavirus a global public health emergency.
C.Hold the third meeting about the coronavirus.
D.Restrict trade and travel across the world.

D.The spread of the coronavirus has no risk.
3.What could the declaration of global public health emergency cause?
A.Bigger outbreak of the coronavirus. B.Trade and travel restrictions.
C.A weaker health system. D.Immediate stop of the coronavirus.
4.Why does WHO worry about the potential for the virus to spread to countries with weaker health systems?
A.Because these countries don’t have the ability to deal with it.

More than 100 people have now died from the new coronavirus (冠状病毒)-COVID-19. The number of people infected in mainland China increased sharply in one day-from 2, 700 Monday to more than 4,500 Tuesday. The increase comes even as China takes strong measures to stop the spread of the disease.
Coronaviruses are a large family of viruses that cause disease in mammals (哺乳动物) and birds. Coronaviruses can cause illnesses from the common cold to much more serious illnesses like Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS) and Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS). Experts still do not have a clear picture of the severity of the new coronavirus.
Officials are calling the disease a "novel" or new coronavirus because it has not been found before in humans. The new virus is thought to have spread to humans from wild animals sold at a market in Wuhan, in central China's Hubei Province. But it is now spreading between people. Chinese officials say the disease is able to spread from one person to another even before any actual signs appear. This makes it especially hard to stop.
Signs of the disease among infected patients have included fever, cough, shortness of breath and general breathing difficulties. In more serious cases, the virus can cause pneumonia（肺炎）. Some people report few or no signs, while others have gotten very sick or even died. Experts say that signs of the virus may appear between two and fourteen days after being near someone who is infected.
There is no special treatment for the new coronavirus. However, many of its effects are treatable, as long as a patient is in fair health. Because the virus is so new among humans, there is no available vaccine(疫苗) to protect against the disease. But the World Health Organization advises people to avoid close contact with anyone showing signs of a breathing sickness, such as coughing or sneezing. It also says people should wash their hands often and use safe food practices.
