疫情 epidemic situation

新冠肺炎 novel coronavirus pneumonia

Dear Leslie,

I’m glad to receive your email.

Thank you for your concern. I’m looking forward to your reply.

Yours,

Li Hua

Zhang Dingyu, the 【1】(direct) of Wuhan Jinyintan Hospital, leads over 600 doctors and nurses fighting against the Novel coronavirus pneumonia(新型冠状病毒肺炎）, which has caused hundreds of deaths in central China’s Hubei Province.

As Zhang led over 600 doctors and nurses fighting the disease, his 【2】/strend/ way of walking shocked his colleagues. He finally admitted that he had 【3】ill with ALS (渐冻症) since October 2018 after constant researches. ALS is a disease that gradually blocks the connection between brain and body. People with ALS become partially paralyzed ( 瘫痪的）leading to respiratory（呼吸系统的）【4】(fail). While working with handicapped（残疾的）legs, his wife was confirmed to get infected with the virus after working in another hospital. The bad news brought him to his knees, and he cried for the first time after the virus broke 【5】. Zhang could only find time to visit his wife until three days after she was 【6】(send) to the hospital. Even then he could only stay there for 30 minutes. 【7】/'f:tntli/, the good news came that his wife had recovered ten days after【8】 /'tri:tmnt/.

Zhang, 57, has offered medical services along with Chinese medical teams to many areas. Three days after the earthquake【9】(hit) central Sichuan Province in 2008, Zhang entered the city with his medical team members to offer help.

“Life is always short. I need to do more to finish the things that I might leave behind, then I would leave【10】 too many regrets,” Zhang said. “We are at the center of a storm, so we need to give all we have to protect our city, and our Wuhan people,” Zhang said.

【1】你想说你宁愿看足球比赛而不愿看电视剧，你可以这样表达：

I would____________________________________________________________.

【2】你想请求对方教你如何下中国象棋，你会这么说：

Could you___________________________________________________________?

【3】你想表达电视对人们的生活有着巨大的影响，你会这样说：

【4】你想知道对方的教练是个性格什么样的人，你可以这样问：

【5】你想知道对方更喜欢哪种影片，动作片还是喜剧片，你会这样问：

【2】 It is not safe to listen to sounds that are louder than 85 dB(分贝) for eight hours or 100 dB for 15 minutes. The sound of a busy road is about 85 dB and the sound of a rock concert can be about 100dB.

Loud noise is harmful to the inner(内的) ear. Most of us are born with about 16,000 hair cells(细胞) in our inner ears. These cells notice sounds. However, listening to loud noise for a long time can make these cells work too hard and cause some of them to die. 【3】 Once this happens, it’s hard to get your hearing back.

Some people might think that their music isn’t all that loud. 【4】 For example, if you are in a noisy place like the subway, you might turn up your music too loud without realizing it. Later, when you listen to it at the same volume in a quiet place, you might feel uncomfortable.

The “safe level” for most sound is below 80 dB for up to 40 hours a week. A level of 80 dB is about equal to (相当于) the noise of a subway.

Here is some advice on safe listening. 【5】 They do a better job of stopping outside noise, so you can listen at a lower volume. Don’t listen to loud music on your headphones for a long time. Follow the 60:60 rule: listen to music at 60 percent of your headphones’ maximum(最大的) volume for no more than 60 minutes a day.

A.This is what causes hearing loss.

B.But this can depend on where you are.

C.The United Nations has standards for safe listening.

D.Over-the-ear headphones are better than in-ear ones.

E.You should know that this habit is bad for your hearing.
