The World Health Organization (WHO) has ...

    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.

1.B 2.A 3.B 4.A 5.D 【解析】 文章主要讲述了WHO对于新冠病毒的爆发做出的决定,这个决定带来的影响,还说明了过去全球卫生公共事件的情况,呼吁全球人民一起打病毒防疫狙击战。 1. 词义猜测题。根据“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.”世卫组织在第三次会议上做出了关于冠状病毒的决定,此前它在前两次会议上决定不采取这个措施,我们可知take such a step 是世卫组织做出的关于冠状病毒的决定,而这个决定在前一句提到了“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.”世卫组织宣布新冠病毒为全球突发卫生公共事件;故选B。 2. 推理判断题。根据“Since 2009, there have been a few global health emergencies, including the 2009 swine flu pandemic(猪流感)”自从2009年以来,全球发生了几起突发卫生事件,包括2009年的猪流感;故选A。 3. 细节理解题。根据“Its declaration could and travel restrictions (限制).”可知,全球突发卫生公共事件的宣布可能贸易和旅行的限制;故选B。 4. 细节理解题。根据"who might not be able to deal with it."可知,世卫组织担心病毒传到卫生体系比较弱的国家,是因为他们没有能力处理;故选A。 5. 细节理解题。根据“many companies ...started making face masks”可知许多公司生产口罩;“thousands of people work day and night.

    If you are home alone, and somebody comes to the door, you will probably shout out “I got it” so that it seems like someone else is there with you and you are not alone at home, this way you can be safe. Then how can we stay safe in our daily lives? Here are some tips:

1. It’s a good idea to give your apartment a safety check—before you even move in. Complete this safety check list. Can you see who’s at the door without opening it? Are your doors made of metal? Have all your doors been rekeyed since you moved in?

2.Become BFFs (best friends forever) with your neighbors. If you’re shy, then you’d probably prefer anything else to chatting with neighbors, But make an effort to be friendly, if only for safety’s sake (面子) . In one way or another, your neighbors may be your best wealth in times of trouble and they’ll be more willing to lend a hand to a friend than they are to help out a stranger.

3.Always throw parties. Burglars (窃贼) are less likely to target busy homes. So yes, this can be your excuse to throw a party. Having people over can make your home seem like there are more people living in it. It’ll also show would-be burglars that a lot of friends have got your back.

4.Be smart about spare keys. Burglars know exactly where to check for spare keys. So don’t think you’re being clever by hiding them in the mailbox, or under a carpet. Instead, you’re better off leaving them to a friend or trusted neighbor.
