24、   “Please don’t travel to Wuhan unless it’s absolutely necessary,” Zhong Nanshan, a famous respiratory (呼吸科的) expert, reminded the public when the novel coronavirus first hit Wuhan. But despite the danger, he, 84, rushed on an overnight train to Wuhan to fight the disease.

Zhong Nanshan is known as the hero who defeated SARS in 2003. His image and messages are flooding ( 遍 布 ) social media. Many people say they “trust every word of Zhong”. He has given Chinese people confidence in winning the battle.

A great doctor and honest scholar (学者)

Growing up in a family of doctors, Zhong lives by a simple motto (信条): save lives and always be honest. In 2003, when SARS hit China, he volunteered to treat patients and asked his colleagues ( 同 事 ) to send their most serious cases to him. After months of work, his treatment plan for SARS was adopted ( 采 纳 ) by China and then the whole world, saving thousands of lives, People’s Daily reported.

Zhong is also known for being an honest scholar. In 2003, when authorities (官方) said that the SARS virus was under control, he publicly refuted their claim. “I couldn’t help myself. I said it’s not all under control,” Zhong said in a later interview. His honesty won widespread praise from the Chinese public.

Back to the frontlines

Seventeen years later, Zhong is once again leading an expert team to study the novel coronavirus. Although this new virus is known to be more dangerous to the elderly, Zhong doesn’t seem worried about his own safety.

On January 18, he took a high-speed train from Guangzhou to Wuhan. Two days later, he became the first expert to make certain that the new virus can be spread between humans. On January 29, he and his colleagues spent over four hours online checking five patients who were in serious condition. The next day, he chose the treatment for those patients. Under his guidance, his team developed a rapid test kit (快速检测试剂盒) for the disease that can show results within 15 minutes.

As People’s Daily wrote, “the 84-year-old Zhong Nanshan shows his professionalism as a scholar, courage as a soldier, and a sense of duty as the backbone (脊梁) of our nation.”

【1】Which one would NOT be used to describe Zhong Nanshan?

A.He is an expert. B.He is honest. C.He trusts social media. D.He is brave.

【2】What achievements did Zhong make in the fight against SARS?

A.He was the first doctor to start treating SARS patients. B.He treated the most serious patients online.

C.His treatment plan saved lots of people. D.He stated that SARS was under control.

【3】What does the underlined word “refute” mean?

A.To support others’ opinions. B.To say that something was not true.

C.To mock or laugh at authorities. D.To be in the fight against the disease.

【4】What has Zhong done to fight the disease caused by the new virus?

A.He warned people that the virus could spread between humans.

B.He treated five severe patients in a day.

C.He chose some special patients to receive treatment.

D.The test kit from his team can show results in 15 seconds.

25、In November 1979, pupils in England were able to watch a new TV program called monkey. Most of them were hearing this story for the first time. However, this story is not new to Chinese children. The monkey king or Sun Wukong is a main character in the traditional Chinese 【1】 Journey to the West.

The monkey king is not just any normal monkey, in fact, he sometimes does not even look like a monkey. This is because he can make 72 【2】 to his shape and size, turning himself into different animals and objects. But unless he can hide his tail, he cannot turn himself into a man. To fight bad people, the monkey king uses the magic stick. Sometimes he can make the stick so 【3】 that he can keep it in his ear. At other times. He is able to make it big and long.

The monkey king has excited the children of China for many years. And as soon as the TV program came out more than 30 years ago. Western children became interested in reading this story because the clever monkey king keeps 【4】 (fight) to help the weak and never gives up.
