He will not see me stopping here
To watch his woods fill up with snow

To stop without a farmhouse near
Between the woods and frozen lake
The darkest evening of the year
He gives his harness bells a shake
To ask if there are some mistakes
The only other sound's the sweep
Of easy wind and downy flake (碎片)
The woods are lovely, dark and deep
But I have promises to keep
And miles to go before I sleep
And miles to go before I sleep

Robert Frost is an American poet（诗人）, who was born in 1874 in San Francisco, but spent most of his years in snowy places like Massachusetts. Most of his poems were about nature and the New England sights. Frost is known for creating simple poems in everyday English. He was big on sounds, often talking about how the sounds of words carry more meaning than the words themselves. His most famous poem is as follows:
Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening

To watch his woods fill up with snow.
My little horse must think it queer（古怪的）

Of easy wind and downy flake（雪花）.
The woods are lovely, dark and deep,
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.

Gina played a good joke on her mother yesterday. This is what she did. Gina went to the woods with her best friends Tina and Tara. They tried to find some green wood to fix up the house for Christmas. She wore her little cap, a red coat and a pair of cotton gloves. Gina was a merry girl. However, she felt sad this morning as she remembered her mother’s words, “The children are going to receive their presents, but I don’t expect any for myself. We are too poor to buy all of the gifts this year.”
When Gina told her brothers this, they all talked about a great deal. “Such a good, kind mother, and no Christmas present! It’s too bad.” said little Gina, with a tear in her eye. She found it was not easy to buy her mother a present.
“Don’t worry, Gina. She has you,’’ said her friend Tara.
“But I’m not a new Christmas present,’’ said Gina unhappily.
“Well, you will be new, Gina,’’ said Tara, “Jump into the basket and we’ll decorate it with beautiful flowers and grass. Then we’ll carry you to your mother.”
“And I am her Christmas present!” Gina cheered.
So they set Gina in the basket, and put green grass all around it. It was a joyful ride with laughing and talking. They set her down on the doorstep and knocked at the door. “There’s a Christmas present out there for you!” Mother went and looked, and there, in a basket of green grass, sat her own little laughing girl.
“Just the very thing I wanted most for Christmas,’’ said mother.

Up to now, Wood has published more than 60 diaries, and he still updates the diaries frequently on social media websites. In his first diary, he mentioned, “news is going around about a bad cold virus in Wuhan, but I feel worlds away from me and few people wear masks in public.”
He recorded in his diaries that thousands of medical workers from different provinces and cities went to Hubei to help with the anti-epidemic (抗疫). Restaurants and shops were closed down, while supermarkets checked people’s body temperatures. And community workers across the country took strict action, asking people to stay at home and helping the old buy daily necessities.
“People in some countries said these measures could cause panic among the public. However, my experience in China shows these efforts are useful and effective, which finally removed people’s fear,” Wood said.
Wood’s diaries soon attracted the world’s attention. Over 10,000 people left him messages on Facebook, and he was interviewed by Canadian CTV which later showed his diaries on its website.
“I also received greetings from my family and friends in Canada. They said they were inspired by the efforts the Chinese have made, he said. “People from some countries thought the Chinese overreacted, and that the Chinese government had overdone in epidemic prevention and control. However,since more countries and regions have been infected(感染) by the virus, more and more people came to realize how proper and important China’s control and prevention measures are.”
Wood is working with the New World Press, which plans to make his diaries a book named The Invisible War. In this book, he hopes to share China’s anti-epidemic experience with more people across the world so they can build confidence to fight against the virus.
1.What can we infer from the first paragraph?
A.People thought the virus spread fast.
B.People failed to realize the danger of the virus.
C.People wore masks in restaurants and supermarkets.
D.People paid enough attention to Wood’s news report.
2.What’s the main idea of Paragraph 2?
A.Business people’s work against the virus. B.Different people’s efforts against the virus.
C.Community workers’ key role against the virus. D.Medical workers’ great support against the virus.
3.Which one did Wood agree about China’s anti-epidemic measures?
A.The measures removed people’s fear.
B.The Chinese cared too much about the virus.
C.The measures would make people worry a lot.
D.The government took too strict measures to control the virus.
4.What caused some foreigners to change their thought?
A.People’s infection in more countries and regions.
B.The worldwide news report on China’s measures.
C.Wood’s experience in China shared in his diaries.
D.Chinese people’s working together against the virus.
5.What is The Inuisible War mainly going to talk about?
A.What Wood has experienced at home during the virus.
B.What people in the world have done to fight the virus.
C.What China has done to control and prevent the virus.
D.What Wood’s friends have done to help him fight the virus.
