Wearing a mask while sleeping at home sounds a little crazy. But Wu Keying did so during the novel coronavirus outbreak. “I feared that I would be infected. Now I know it’s not necessary to do so. But I am still worried about when the epidemic （疫情）will end,” said the 13-year-old from Chengdu, Sichuan province. Being stuck inside makes her feel anxious.
In fact, many people have experienced feelings like Wu. Nearly 80 percent of people are deeply worried about the outbreak, while 40 percent strongly fear it, according to a report released on Jan 27 by the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences.
These feelings are normal for people who are going through stressful events, according to Wang Weihua, an expert on positive psychology （积极心理学）. “Some stressful reactions （反应） can help us fight the virus,” Wang said. “We take more protective actions, such as wearing masks and washing hands often, for example.”
But if these feelings last too long, it will be bad for our mental health, Wang added. So how can we stay positive?
First, we should learn to accept unexpected changes in life, wrote Xiong Kewei, a psychological consultant (咨询师) at Beijing Normal University. We might learn new lessons from these changes, like respecting (尊重) nature and being more responsible(有担当的).
Another useful way to stay positive is to keep a normal routine (正常作息). “The key is to take good care of the body, arrange a reasonable schedule（日程）, ensure enough sleep and diet, and get the necessary rest and relaxation,” Zhang Hong, deputy chief physician of Wuhan Mental Health Center, told China Daily.
36．Wu Keying wore a mask while sleeping because .
A．she was scared of being infected
B．it’s the best way to avoid infection
C．it’s necessary to do so.
D．one of her family members was infected
37．Which one is true?
A．Less than 40 percent strongly fear the virus
B．Only 40 percent of people worry about the outbreak.
C．Many people feel worried about the virus.
D．More than 80 percent of people wear masks while sleeping.
38．According to Wang Weihua, can help us fight the virus.
a. wearing masks b. staying positive c. washing our hands d. being stress-free
A．abc B．acd C．abd D．bcd
39．What does the underlined word “arrange” mean?
A．准备 B．调换 C．预约 D．安排

A．how to stay away from the coronavirus

We live in the " computer age ". People like scientists, teachers and even students use computers to do many kinds of work. But many years ago, computers couldn’t do much. They were very big and expensive. Very few people were interested in them and knew how to use them.
