Last Monday, we were having our Chinese class while the teacher suddenly slipped and fall. We were all worried about her. One of the boy carried her on the back, under the help of some others, to the clinic immediately. It turned out that her right leg was breaking and she had to stay in hospital. The following day, we went to visit her with flowers. Seeing her lying in bed with leg wrapped in bandages, we felt sorry for her and hoped that she would recover soon. Lucky, this Thursday she returned back to the class in a wheelchair to give us lessons. We were both deeply moved and proud of have such a responsible teacher.

Leading health experts from the CDC and the WHO have made it clear that reducing the effects of coronavirus(新冠病毒)means staying hone as long as possible.1.They give some ideas as follows:
Don’t let the news control your rest.
The coronavirns situation seems to change by the hour, resulting in a number of people feeling necessary to constantly check their phones for news. That can not only be stressful at any time, but also it can affect your ability to relax if you surf news before going to sleep. Dr. Rosmarin says, “It’ s not a good time to watch the news.”2.
Don’t argue with people who seem unconcerned about the crisis.
You might face pressure from friends or family to attend gatherings when you aren’t comfortable being in groups. You may be upset because they aren't following the instructions: staying at home. 3.So you’d better avoid the meaningless argument.
4.
Do laundry on Sundays? Keep doing it on Sunday. Not going to work? Get dressed anyway. Maintaining a regular routine will go a long way toward helping you avoid feelings of disorganization.
Don’t hesitate to seek help if you need it.
5.For people already struggling with anxiety, obsessive compulsive disorder, or depression, fears over coronavirus can be especially disruptive. Always seek professional help if depression, you feel overwhelmed.
A.Arguing about it isn’t productive.
B.Don’t ignore your regular routine.
C.You cannot solve the mental problems all by yourself.
D.Don’t forget to remind your family to respect your boundary.
E.What can you do to make your staying home beer than before?
F.But how to deal with the mental tension, such as being upset and nervous?
G.Sleep is important to a healthy system, and giving yourself an opportunity to relax is important.
Dog owners walked about 23minues longer each day than non-dog owners In a new study, dog owners took 2,760 additional seps—compared to people who didn’t have a dog at home. Bu here’s the real good news: That extra exercise was done at a moderate(适度的)pace, which means it could help adults meet their recommended weekly totals for physical activity.
The research, published in BMC Public Health, focused on adults 65 and older, who tend to be less active than younger people. The study included 43 dog owners and 43 non-dog owners, all of whom were monitored continuously for three week-long periods. When they compared the two groups, the researchers found that dog ownership was associated with a large, potentially health-improving effect.
Dog owners walked about 23 minutes longer each day than non-dog owners, 119 minutes versus 96 minutes on average. They also took an additional 2,760 steps, and had eight fewer continuous periods of sitting down. Most of that extra walking was done at moderate pace, defined as 100 or more steps a minute. Dog owners walked at this pace for 32 minutes a day, versus just 11 minutes a day for non-dog owners.
The World Health Organization(WHO)recommends that adults get at least 150 minutes of physical activity a week. This increased walking time alone could just about satisfy that requirement, say the researchers—so it makes total sense that 87 percent of dog owners in the study met these guidelines, versus just 47 percent of non-dog owners.
Co-author Nancy Gee says that pet ownership may help older adults get more activity or maintain their current activity level for a longer period of time. “This could improve their chances of a better quality of life, improved or maintained cognition(认知), and perhaps, even overall longevity(寿命),”she said.
Here at Health, we’ ll add that caring for pets has been shown to have plenty of other physical and mental health benefits, as well. As animal lovers ourselves, we’ re happy to add one more to the list.

3.What does Nancy Gee think of owning a dog?
A.It is too expensive.
