Scientists are not alone in the fight against the novel coronavirus(新型冠状病毒), as new technologies and innovative(创新的)products are giving them a hand. Here are some examples.
Big data（大数据）
Our smartphones send data to telecom companies around the clock, telling these companies where we have been and where we are going. Chinese telecom companies provide governments with this data.They use the data to track(迫踪) traffic flows among different provinces and cities. By tracking how many people are coming and going out of Wuhan, the center of the outbreak, telecom companies can send warnings to areas that are being visited by large numbers of people from Wuhan.
Drones
Drones(无人机) have played a major role in disinfection(消毒)and preventing cross-infection(交叉感染)in crowded places like hospitals,railway stations and airports.
Police officers use drones to give warnings.For example,if people gather in large groups or do not wear masks,drones with cameras can record and send images of these people in real time to control rooms.The drones will then warn these people.
Robots
Robots are good helpers on the frontlines.They are used at hospitals to offer medical advice,deliver drugs or meals, act like guides,perform disinfection, measure patients' body temperatures and do other repetitive work.In this way, robots can not only help greatly reduce the burden for medical workers,but also reduce the risk of cross-infection.They have also been used in public places like train stations and airports to check temperatures.

C Washington is home to lots of trees---it is the Evergreen State, after all--- and it has lots of fireplaces and wood-burning heaters too. But what if you lived there and couldn't cut wood or couldn't afford to pay someone to do it?Luckily, Shane McDaniel and his twin sons, Harrison and Henry McDaniel, are happy to help.The three men cut truckloads of wood-then give it to those in need.
The idea actually started as a father-son relationship project, Shane told msn.com. \I cut wood with my dad. He just loved doing it,\said Shane.He wanted to pass along that feeling, so he and the twins spent the summer cutting. The result was a great wall of wood piled up(堆积) around their house. To buy that much it would cost about $10.000.
It was too much for the McDaniels to use themselves, and when the weather turned cold that November,Shane started thinking of others. He posted online:\IF YOU ARE IN NEED OF FIREWOOD AND CANNOT AFFORD IT, PLEASE PM [personal message] ME!...If you know someone who BURNS WOOD,please help me and my boys make sure NO ONE GOES COLD IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD, The response(反应) was immediate.One man offered to donate a wood-burning stove.Others raced over to Shane's house with more wood.One woman,noticing the photo of the McDaniels,started to feel warm in other ways:\I don't need the wood.But I am truly happy for what you have done!\
Single mom Katelyn Ticer,29,and her four-year-old daughter depended on a wood-burning stove as their only way of heat,so it was so good to receive a truckload of firewood from the McDaniels.\\she told msn.com.\So much stress and worry is off my shoulders. I couldn't be more thankful.\
Shane is ready to help more people.\Giving is the reward\\It has nothing to do with how well it's received; it's about how much it's needed.\
26．What did Shane and his sons do to help their neighbours?
A．They gave firewood to those in need. B．They bought wood-burning stoves. C．They raised about 10,000 dollars. D．They paid someone to cut wood. 27．What happened after Shane posted messages online? A．His family received lots of presents. B．Some people quickly offered to help.
C．Lots of wood piled up around their house.D．The weather suddenly turned freezing cold. 28．What did Shane think of what he had done to help others? A．Being needed drives us to give. B．Love is not giving but receiving.
C．Helping others is just helping ourselves. D．It's better to help people fish than to give them fish.

You have tried too hard but you don't succeed;you've made all your efforts but you don't get the results you want.What should you do? Give up and turn over a new page.Drop it like it's hot,and run in the opposite direction as fast as you can.
Do you feel surprised? What is wrong with giving up?Oh yes, we all have been trained and asked to work hard to achieve our dreams,and that is a good thing.The problem comes out when all these inspirational quotes(励志名言)start confusing us.
These messages tell people not to give up,but they don't tell you that it should only apply to(适用于)your true dreams. They tell people to\try and try again%until they succeed,but that amount of effort should only be put toward what people really want in life and they should never give up no matter what life goals they have.The rest is all just there to confuse you,distract(使分

Try to discover your talent,your ability and your skills.Find out what you are good at,what makes you happy and then work on it.If you do,no one would have to tell you or inspire you not to give up because when you love something, you keep trying until you get it right and the enthusiasm flows from within.Don't worry about what people will say or think.It's your life, so you have to love it and be your own boss.
