What is a hero? We may think of the fictional characters with super powers or great people who can influence world events. Now,as the nation continues its all-out efforts to fight against the novel coronavirus pneumonia(新冠肺炎)，medical workers have become heroes in the eyes of the public.

As of Feb 19,a total of 32,000 medical workers outside Hubei province have been working to treat patients around the center of the outbreak.

Zhang Dingyu, the president of Wuhan Jinyintan Hospital, is one of these heroes,since the hospital received the first seven patients in December, Zhang has been so busy that he barely gets any sleep.Even suffering from amyotrophic lateral sclerosis(肌萎缩侧索硬化)，the 56-year-old doctor is doing his best to quicken his pace to save precious time for infected patients.

“I have to run,racing against time to save more patients from the deadly disease, because I don't have much time left in my life,” Zhang told Xinhua News Agency.

With the duty of saving lives,many medical professionals like Zhang have been working long hours for days,despite their fear and worries.

Lu Jingjing from Wuhan Children's Hospital also works at a temporary mobile hospital. She does not let her parents know that she is now working with novel coronavirus-infected patients.

When her parents ask for a video chat, Lu says she is working and lets her husband and children chat with them instead.

“It's dangerous but we should win the battle with the virus as soon as possible, so that medical workers and patients can go back home,” she told China Daily.

According to a survey，U.S. customers care about their personal information and identities(身份) during the holiday season. But the survey shows these worries won't affect how they shop. On the days of deals(交易日)-online and in stores-create even more opportunities to steal customers' information. Here are some simple tips to protect your personal data.

Be aware of your surroundings. 43 percent of identity theft comes from a stolen wallet,checkbook, credit card,or other physical document. While holiday shopping, keep an eye on your things and stay aware of what's going on around you.

Be careful with those public, unsafe coffee shop Wi-Fi networks. If you use an unsafe network, other users on the network can see what you see and what you send. They could break into your conversation and log in as you.New hacking tools available for free online make this easy, even for users with limited technical know-how.

Think carefully about providing your information. Mobile shopping apps are convenient, but they can store your name, address, phone number, email details. Look for apps that are clear about how they keep your data safe. Never provide information tied to your identity, like your bank account number, to someone announcing to be from a government business.

And， as all customer protection guides will tell you，don't send cash(现金). Is someone asking you to send money immediately for a deal that seems too good to be true, or saying you qualify for a government support but need to send them a cash fee to receive it? Don't buy it. Scammers will ask you to pay in ways that let them get cash fast-and make it rather difficult for you to get your money back.

42.What did the survey show in Paragraph 1?

A.U.S.customers are afraid of shopping.

B.U.S.customers' information is stolen every day.

C.U.S.customers care about their personal information.

D.U.S.customers usually shop online instead of in stores.

43.Where does identity theft sometimes come from?

A.Your name B.Your credit card C.Your email D.Your phone number

44.The underlined word “Scammers” in the last paragraph may mean_

A.受害者 B.目击者 C.抢劫犯 D.诈骗犯

45. In order to protect our personal data, we'd better

A.use coffee shop Wi-Fi networks if possible

B.take notice of your surroundings while shopping

C.provide your information while mobile shopping

D.send cash to the government business if you are asked to

五、阅读表达(共5小题，每小题2分，计10分)

Have you touched a cute dog recently? If that dog touches you with its nose, you may find how wet and cold it is. If dogs are so warm and fluffy(毛茸茸的)，then why are their noses so cold?

Before, people thought that dogs had cold noses to help them control their body temperature. But, a new study has shown some interesting findings about dogs' noses. The study finds that when the air temperature is 30°℃,the tip of a dog's nose is about five degrees cooler than the air. But why is this?

The researchers believe that the tip of a dog's nose has a special sensory function(探测功能).So， they do an experiment to test it. The study shows that dogs can find weak heat sources-like a small animal-with their noses from 1.5 meters away.

The research team studies three dogs named Charlie, Delfi and Kevin.For the experiment,the dogs have to tell the difference between two objects.The two objects are heated to different temperatures. Amazingly,all three dogs are able to sense the temperature difference between both objects.

The study also finds that the heat from the objects in the experiment is too weak to be felt by human hands,even at very short distances. The dogs are able to sense these heated objects from a distance, but humans are only able to feel the warmth of the object if they touch it.

To know more about it,the research team also studies the brain activity of 13 dogs. When a warm object is put near their noses, there is an increase in brain activity.

根据短文内容回答问题(每小题答案不超过10个单词)。

56.How many degrees is the tip of a dog's nose when the air temperature is 30℃?

57.Which is the stronger to sense the temperature, the human hands or the dogs?

58. What's the special sensory function in the tip of a dog's nose?

59.How do the humans feel the heat of the objects?

60.What happens to the dogs when they sense heat from a warm object?
