    Zhang Dingyu, the director 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 strange way of walking shocked his colleagues(同事). He finally admitted(承认)that he had fallen ill with ALS since October 2018. ALS is a disease that gradually blocks(阻断)the connection between brain and body. ALS can make people become partially paralyzed（瘫痪的）and finally hard to breathe.

While Zhang was working with handicapped（瘸的）legs, his wife got infected with the virus after working in another hospital. The bad news made him cry for the first time after the virus broke out. Zhang could only find time to visit his wife until three days after she came into the hospital for treatment. Even then he could only stay for 30 minutes. Fortunately, the good news came that his wife had recovered ten days after treatment.

Zhang, 57, has offered medical services along with Chinese medical teams to Algeria and Pakistan. Three days after the earthquake 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 without 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.

阅读下面的短文，根据短文后的要求答题。

What does it mean to be a Chinese? According to a survey, more than 40% of Chinese people believe the Chinese love the country and their family. At the same time, about 1/3 of foreigners describe the Chinese as hard-working and creative people.

From 1931 to 1945, millions of soldiers lost their lives in the war against Japanese aggression. (A) And after the founding of the People’s Republic of China, plenty of people, including scientists and workers, worked day and night for the development of China.

While the love for the country joins the people together, family plays a big role in traditional Chinese culture. “My Chinese friends get married and have babies when they get to a certain age. And Chinese friends think about their family first when they choose a job or give up one.” said Aaron Cedillo, an English teacher in a school in Beijing.

(B) , the characters of being hard-working and creative are also well-known. Sherry Wang, Malaysian student, used the package delivery（快递）on weekends as an example of how hard- working Chinese people are. “It seems those men never need to rest.” she said. A foreign university professor has found some Chinese students in the lab could always come up with new ideas. “I'm really surprised.” he said.

The past seventy years witnessed（见证）China’s rapid development. During the process, the international community, including Chinese people themselves, have got a clearer understanding of Chinese characters.
