What do you know about the doctor in the pictures
Lead-in
Henry Norman Bethune, surgeon, inventor, political activist (born 4 March 1890 in Gravenhurst, ON; died 12 November 1939 in Huang Shiko, China).
He was an early advocate of universal health care in Canada. A member of the Communist Party, Bethune volunteered during the Spanish Civil War, where he pioneered the mobile blood transfusion unit. In 1938, he travelled to China, where he became a battlefield surgeon for Chinese Communist forces under Mao Zedong. Bethune’s commitment to the welfare of soldiers and civilians during the Sino-Japanese War made him a hero in the People’s Republic of China.
What do you think of him

The whole passage
1. What is your understanding of “a community with a shared
future for mankind”
Today, humankind is faced with many challenges; the issue concerning the direction the international community is going in draws attention. Under this background, the role of major countries is particularly crucial. The international community calls for a leading force that advocates fairness and justice, promotes win-win cooperation, defends progress, unity and common understanding, and advocates the whole world as one community.
当前，人类面临诸多挑战；国际社会的发展方向问题备受关注。在此背景下，大国的作用尤为重要。国际社会需要一个倡导公平正义、促进合作共赢的主导力量，一个维护进步、团结、共识的主导力量，一个倡导世界大家庭的主导力量。
The whole passage
2. How is the idea reflected in the MSF doctor’s journal
The author mentioned that Ebola has no respect for borders. This indicates that borders are artificial. Many human differences are similarly artificial or unimportant when compared to what unites people. Doctors and others involved in the fight against the disease were united by their common values of respecting and saving human life.
作者提到埃博拉病毒不分国界。这表明边界是人为的。与团结人们的东西相比，人类的许多差异同样是人为的或不重要的。医生和其他参与抗击这种疾病的人因尊重和拯救人类生命的共同价值观而团结在一起。

The whole passage
Think and share
1．To build a community with a shared future for mankind，what can we students do Write down your ideas. (Creative thinking)
To build a community with a shared future for mankind, our middle school students should first study hard and complete our studies, especially learn English and Chinese well, so as to do a good job in promoting exchanges between middle school students from other countries in the future, introduce Chinese traditional culture to the foreign students and learn advanced Western technologies and ideas with an open mind. Secondly, we should cultivate our sense of competition, actively participate in social competition, dare to innovate, dare to question, dare to challenge. Only in this way can we make our due contribution to the building of the human community.
为了构建人类命运共同体，我们中学生首先要努力学习，完成学业，特别是学好英语和汉语，以便在未来促进各国中学生之间的交流，向外国学生介绍中国传统文化，并以开放的心态学习西方先进的技术和思想。其次，要培养竞争意识，积极参与社会竞争，敢于创新，敢于质疑，敢于挑战。只有这样，我们才能为人类社会的建设做出应有的贡献。
