√
Para.5
Just after my arrival, a family of six were brought here in the back of a van. All of them were infected. The twin girls and their parents soon died. We knew there was little hope for the brothers, but we did everything we could to save them. When we visited the ward the next morning, we were amazed to see that against all odds, both boys were still alive. Pascal and Daniel have since made a full recovery. This small but unexpected success compensated for many other less fortunate cases.

1. How did the author feel when working together with his colleagues
He felt inspired when working together with his colleagues.
To be caught up in such a crisis creates powerful bonds between people, not only between carers and patients, but also between all those who have come from different parts of the world and joined together in a common cause. It is so inspiring to have colleagues like Wilton, Maisy and Alfonso, not to mention all the others I have worked with.

D．To slip into the shoes.
√
Now my time is almost up. In a few days, someone else will arrive to step into my shoes, and the tireless work that the MSF members do in more than 70 countries and regions around the world will go on. In a world still facing so many problems, it is absolutely essential for us all to collaborate to create a global community with a shared future of peace and prosperity.

Ⅱ.研典句 学用法
since 引导时间状语从句
It’s exactly one month since the last reported case.(P50 Para.1)
距离上次报告的病例已经整整一个月了。
结构分析：此句中的“It be＋一段时间＋since...”句型中since引导时间状语从句，意为“自从……已有多长时间了”。
“It be＋时间段＋since...”句型，意为“自从……已有多长时间了”。主句谓语为is或has been，since从句用一般过去时；主句谓语为was，since从句用过去完成时。
It＋be＋一段时间＋before从句(若before从句时态为一般现在时，be为一般将来时；若before从句时态为一般过去时，be为一般过去时)，表示“多久之后才……”。
since作副词，意为“从……以后；后来”。
(1)自从我来到这个村子里的诊所当助手已经三年了。
the clinic as an assistant in this village.
(2)约翰认为不久他就会适应新环境。（adapt oneself to 适应）
John thinks the new surroundings.
(3)他说他从这所学校毕业已经十年了。

用法点拨 since引导的从句中的动词如果用非延续性动词，表示“自从……多长时间了”；若since引导的从句中的动词为延续性动词，则表示“自从该动作或状态的完成或结束以来已有多长时间了”。
I have not heard from him
since
非延续性动词表示行为或动作是瞬间完成的。常见的有 come, go, arrive, reach, begin, start, buy, borrow, return, stop, lose, break, open, close, enter, join, die, leave, jump, marry, move, put, admit, receive, accept 等。
延续性动词表示一种可持续的行为过程或状态。常见的有 wait, work, walk, wear, study, talk, stand, rain, snow, run, live, sing, sleep, know, have, read, lie, swim, fly, eat, drink, burn, smoke 等。

How is the idea reflected in the MSF doctor’s journal

01
Building a human community with a shared future is the way forward for all the world’s people. An ancient Chinese philosopher observed that “all living things may grow side by side without interfering with one another.” Only when all countries pursue the cause of common good, live in harmony, and engage in cooperation for mutual benefit will there be sustained prosperity and guaranteed security.
From Xi Jinping’s report at the 20th CPC National Congress

What is your understanding of “a human community with a shared future”
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.

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.

Para.5
Just after my arrival, a family of six were brought here in the back of a van. All of them were infected. The twin girls and their parents soon died. We knew there was little hope for the brothers, but we did everything we could to save them. When we visited the ward the next morning, we were amazed to see that against all odds, both boys were still alive. Pascal and Daniel have since made a full recovery. This small but unexpected success compensated for many other less fortunate cases.

He felt inspired when working together with his colleagues.
To be caught up in such a crisis creates powerful bonds between people, not only between carers and patients, but also between all those who have come from different parts of the world and joined together in a common cause. It is so inspiring to have colleagues like Wilton, Maisy and Alfonso, not to mention all the others I have worked with.

Now my time is almost up. In a few days, someone else will arrive to step into my shoes, and the tireless work that the MSF members do in more than 70 countries and regions around the world will go on. In a world still facing so many problems, it is absolutely essential for us all to collaborate to create a global community with a shared future of peace and prosperity.

since 引导时间状语从句
It’s exactly one month since the last reported case.(P50 Para.1)

“It be＋时间段＋since...”句型，意为“自从……已有多长时间了”。主句谓语为is或has been，since从句用一般过去时；主句谓语为was，since从句用过去完成时。
It＋be＋一段时间＋before从句(若before从句时态为一般现在时，be为一般将来时；若before从句时态为一般过去时，be为一般过去时)，表示“多久之后才……”。
since作副词，意为“从……以后；后来”。

Building a human community with a shared future is the way forward for all the world’s people. An ancient Chinese philosopher observed that “all living things may grow side by side without interfering with one another.” Only when all countries pursue the cause of common good, live in harmony, and engage in cooperation for mutual benefit will there be sustained prosperity and guaranteed security.

What is your understanding of “a human community with a shared future”
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.

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.
