  • 1.Everyone can benefit from better communication. (1)
    Of course,we know that isn't true,but this shouldn't stop you improving your communication skills.Here are a few tips to help you become a better communicator.
    ?(2)

    Verbal(口頭的) language is only one part of the communication-body language is another.If you ever wanted to know how to tell if someone is lying,body language is the answer.Your body language tells other people what you aren't verbally saying,such as if you are anxious,confident,confused,angry or any other type of emotion or state of mind.If you become great at reading body language,it will help you become a better communicator.
    ?Listen to others
    Before you ever begin to speak,take a minute to see if anyone else has something to say. (3)
    Listening to others has many benefits,such as allowing you to learn new things or get information that you may later need.
    ?Think before you speak
    Your parents probably told you this as a child,but many people still do not take a moment to think about the words they are about to say. (4)
    There is a time and place for all words and tones of voice.
     (5)
    You will have to practice your communication skills before you can ever become an excellent communicator.

    A.This is not an overnight thing.
    B.Singing a song for them is good.
    C.Become fluent in body language.

  • 2.New Virus Details Show Challenges for Outbreak Control At first,scientists were relieved that the new virus,COVID-19,wasn't as dangerous as those that caused SARS,Ebola or some other recent infectious diseases.(1)
    .Here are some of the challenges.
       Multiplying infections
       According to the existing data,the infection rate for SARS is 3 while the ordinary flu's infection rate is about 1.1.Now,based on the first 425 confirmed COVID-19 cases,each infection led to 2.2 more infections on average.(2)
    .Yet we don't know whether the new virus is weakening or is still learning what it can do.
       Varying incubation periods (潛伏期)
       Scientists estimated(估計)the average incubation period was roughly five days,but said it could last up to two weeks.(3)
    .People can move away from where they got it and not even remember places where they may have been exposed.
       Spreading in stealth
       Another big worry is that one person with no symptoms can also infect others.On Thursday,scientists reported that a woman who was not ill at the time spread the virus to a man in Germany during a business trip there.(4)
    .
       Testing gaps
      (5)
    .At present,a few types of test kits(工具包)have been developed.But they are not accurate enough.Scientists are not sure how many false alarms or missed cases each might give at any point in time.That leaves a key gap.
       Although scientists are still faced with so many challenges,they are confident that the new virus will be put under control soon.

    A.More testing equipment should be provided at once.
    B.It's still a struggle to determine who is or is not infected.
    C.Such a long potential incubation period can be a problem.
    D.The rate is a bit lower than SARS but much higher than ordinary flu.
    E.That is a very low infection rate compared with that of SARS and Ebola.
    F.Then he infected several other coworkers before showing any symptoms.
    G.However,new details show how challenging it could be to control this outbreak.
