    Once upon a time, there was a young farmer who planted an area of rice. After he planted the seedlings(幼苗), every day he went to the field to watch the seedlings grow. He hoped the plants would grow fast because he wanted to have a great harvest(丰收) soon. But one month later, he only saw the young shoots(发芽) break through the earth and after that, they grew a little taller each day, but still, he thought they were growing too slowly and gotexcitedwith the young plants. His neighbors knew his trouble and told him the plants would grow according to their growth rules. But the young man didn't think so. Then one morning he came up with a fantastic idea-one by one, he pulled up the young plants by half an inch(英寸). He did the work from half past seven in the morning till eight at night, feeling tired but happy. The next early morning, the young man couldn't wait to check his "great work", but when he saw the plants, he cried his heart out.

    Scientists are not alone in the fight against the virus, as new technologies are giving them a hand. They help scientists find treatments (疗法) for the virus, as well as control the infection (传染).

    Big data(数据)

    Our smartphones send data to telecom companies around the clock, telling these companies where we have been. Chinese telecom companies are supplyinglocal governments with this data. By tracking(追踪) how many people are coming and going out of Wuhan, telecom companies can send warnings to areas that are being visited by large numbers of people from Wuhan.

    Drones(无人机)

    Drones have played an important role in disinfection (消毒) and preventing cross infection 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 will warn these people.

    Robots

    Robots are good helpers. They are used at hospitals to offer medical advice, send drugs or meals, act like guides, perform disinfection and take patients' temperatures. This not only greatly reduces the work for medical workers, but also reduces(减少) the risk of cross-infection. Robots have also been used in public places like train stations and airports to check temperatures.

    Supercomputers

    Supercomputers analyze (分析) the genetic data (基因数据) of the virus and help scientists learn more about the virus in order to make vaccines (疫苗). Chinese companies like Ten cent have opened up their supercomputers to scientists, helping them find treatments for the virus.

    Have you ever found beauty in life, even during difficult times?

    Here's a movie called Life is Beautiful. The story happens in 1939. Orefice, a young man, is a Jew(犹太人). He's funny and clever, and falls in love with an Italian girl named Dora. Later, they marry and have a son named Joshua and run a bookstore together.

    Unluckily, they and many other Jewish families, are taken to a concentration camp (集中营) by German Nazi(纳粹党). In the camp, Orefice explains to Joshua that the camp is a game and he must perform the activities. Orefice also tells his son each of the activates will give them ports and the person who gets to 1,000 points will win a tank(坦克). The most moving is that the people in the camp also keep the lie(谎言) to themselves. Orefice tries hard to protect Joshua's innocence (天真). He even teaches all of the German children how to say "Thank you" in Italian. Though Orefice is killed at last, Joshua is alive when the allies (同盟军) arrives.

    The film shows us how to protect those we love in the face of difficulties. As the French writer Romain Rolland once said, "There's only one heroism(英雄主义) in the world: to see the world as it is and to love it." And this best describes the life and actions of our hero, Orefice.
