At the beginning of 2021, the Chinese government said it will provide free COVID-19 vaccines(疫苗) to all Chinese citizens. Since then, millions of people have gotten the vaccine. Let's take a closer look.
______________________
The vaccine is given by injection(注射).It's suggested to get two doses. You should wait about two weeks after the first dose to get the second one.
Can people of all ages get vaccinated
The vaccines have been tested among three different age groups: 3 to 17, 18 to 59, and 60 and above. The 18-to-59 age group has the most data (数据)---the vaccines have been proven to be safe in this group. The other two groups are expected to be included soon.
Is there anyone who shouldn't get vaccinated
Experts say the vaccines are safe for most people. But people who have serious diseases such as cancer or diabetes(糖尿病), or people who are allergic(过敏的)to any of the vaccine's ingredients, should not get it. People who want to get the vaccine should not get any other vaccines during the same period.
Do I still need to wear a mask in public places after I’ve been vaccinated
Yes. It takes a few weeks for the body to build immunity (免疫力) after vaccination (接种疫苗). This means it's possible for a person to get infected(传染的)just after vaccination. There's also a small chance that your body won't build immunity. So before the population becomes immune(免疫的)to the virus, it’s highly encouraged to keep wearing masks, practicing social distancing (社交隔离) and washing your hands after getting vaccinated.

The bouquets(花束)for the awards of Beijing 2022 Winter Olympic Games are quite different as they are made of wool. Wool bouquets are not like those made from other materials that will be easy to fade(褪色)and they're low-carbon,which shows the idea of "green Olympics".
Li Meili, a traditional wool-knitting(针织)expert, can still remember the exciting moment in Ootober 2021, when she learned the wool bouquet was chosen as the final plan for the Olympic Games. "At that time,I felt my dream had come true. Our design had been provided for the Organizing Committee for more than four months. I once thought it was hopeless," said the 70-year-old artist. Li used to work for a newspaper and magazine office. She began to learn the knitting skills in her fifties after retirement. She knows much about all the kinds of flowers in the bouquet, but she has decided to be stricter with herself to meet the Olympic standards."I chose thin wool. Though the speed of knitting will be slower, the bouquets will look more beautiful,"she said.
A total of 1,251 bouquets are needed for the awards of Beijing Winter Olympics and Special Olympics. The bouquet is made up of seven different wool flowers. Each flower was handmade, which requires plenty of time and manpower. "Take a rose for example. A worker needs to spend at least five hours on one rose,"said Li. "Therefore, to complete making a bouquet will require around 35 hours. All the bouquets will take nearly 50,000 hours to finish knitting."
Li’s duties include personnel training, quality control and final pack of the bouquets. To make sure the high quality of the bouquets, each knitting group only makes one or two kinds of flowers. "The first-made bouquet was thinner. I filled the‘branches' into it to make it touch more comfortable,"she added.
( )48. What is special about wool bouquets for the Beijing Winter Olympics
A. They'll never fade. B. They're in harmless to the environment.
C. They're designed by athletes. D. They look more beautiful than real flowers.
( )49. Which of the following is the right order according to the story
She thought it was hopeless.
b. Li began to learn the knitting skills.
c. She trained all the workers to make the wool bouquets.
d. The wool bouquet was chosen as the final plan.
e. Li worked for a newspaper and magazine office.
A. d-a-e-b-c B. d-e-a-b-c C. e-b-d-a-cD. e-b-a-d-c
( )50. What can we infer about making a wool bouquet
A. It is completed by machine. B. It mainly includes making roses.
C. It needs lots of efforts and energy. D. It can be finished in a short time.
( )51.Each group only makes one or two kinds of flowers to _______.
