With the COVID-19 epidemic 1.(hit) China, many of you might want to know more about the virus. The disease 2.(cause) by a newly-found type of coronavirus. Coronaviruses are a large family of 3.(virus). 4.word “corona” comes from Latin and refers to crowns. When people first saw a coronavirus under a microscope, they found that its spikes (刺突) made it look like a crown. That’s 5.the virus family got its name. Some coronaviruses cause disease in humans; 6.（other）spread illness among animals, including camels, cats and bats.
We 7.(find) seven types of coronavirus that can infect humans so far. Four of them are common and cause respiratory (呼吸道的) illnesses 8. mild（轻度的） flu. Rarely, animal coronaviruses can evolve (进化) and then spread among people, such as with Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS，中东呼吸综合症) and severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS，严重急性呼吸综合症). Novel coronavirus, 9.was first found in Wuhan, is the 10.(seven) one.
Antarctica(南极洲) is known for being a vast land of ice and snow, a place too cold for most life. Despite (尽管) this, the continent is slowly starting to turn warm. According to the Guardian, the Antarctic has registered (登记) a new high temperature for the first time on record, prompting fears of climate instability(不稳定性) in the world’s iciest place.
On Feb 9, Brazilian researchers at Seymour Island reported a temperature of 20.75℃ on the icy continent of Antarctica. It was almost a full degree higher than the previous record of 19.8℃, taken on Signy Island in January 1982.
This record-breaking reading was taken at a monitoring (监测) station in the northern part of Antarctica. According to Brazilian soil scientist Carlos Schaefer, the temperature was documented during a 20-year-long research project. The focus of this project is to study the effect that climate change has on the permafrost (永久冻土) within the region. Permafrost is soil that stays frozen for at least two years. Although this is a first record high for Antarctica, Schaefer stressed that “We can’t use this to anticipate (预测) climatic changes in the future. It’s simply a signal that something different is happening in that area.”
But in fact, the last high temperature reading was in the 19℃ range. These higher temperatures can cause ice and glaciers (冰川) in Antarctic regions to melt. The Antarctic peninsula (半岛) —the long finger of land(狭长地带) that stretches towards Argentina（阿根廷）—is most dramatically affected. Scientists saw glaciers that have retreated by more than 100 meters in Discovery Bay where the snow melted in little more than a week, leaving dark exposed rock. This melted ice leads to a rise in sea levels that can threaten the safety of coastal areas. It’s believed to be behind an alarming decline of more than 50 percent in chinstrap penguin (帽带企鹅) colonies, which are dependent on sea ice.
Like American writer Ernest Hemingway once said, “The Earth is a fine place and worth fighting for.” We should do everything we can to help save our planet. Otherwise, it may become too hot for us to fix.
