With the COVID﹣19 epidemic（传染病） hitting China， many of you might want（1）____ more about the virus． The disease（2） by a newly﹣found type of corona﹣virus （冠状病毒）． Corona﹣viruses are a large family of virus． The word "corona" comes from Latin and refers to crowns （王冠）．When people first saw a corona﹣virus under a microscope （显微镜），they found that its spikes（刺突）made it（3） like a crown． That's（4） the virus family got its name．Some corona﹣viruses cause disease in humans， others spread illness among animals（5） camels （骆驼）， cats and bats （蝙蝠）．

Everyone faces challenges in their life， but some are more difficult than others． Daniel Kish had serious problems with his eyes when he was born． And doctors took away both of his eyes before he was fourteen months old．
Soon later， however，he started to do an amazing thing．He started to make clicking （咔哒） sounds with his tongue （舌头） to help him move around． Much like a bat （蝙蝠） ， he now moves about using sonar （声呐）． （1） He and his group， World Access for the Blind， teach others how to use sonar．In this interview with National Geographic， Kish explains how sonar works．
How does sonar work？
"When I make a clicking sound， it makes sound waves． These waves reflect （反射） off surfaces all around and return to my ears． My brain then processes the sounds into images （图象）（2） "．
When you click， what do you see in your mind？
"Each click is like a camera flash． I make a 3D image of the things around me for hundreds of feet in every direction．
What is it like riding a bike using sonar？
"（3） I click up to two times per second， much more than I usually do"．
Is it dangerous to move around the world in this way？
"Much of the world lives in fear of things that we mostly imagine． I have a habit of climbing everything， but I never broke a bone （骨头） as a kid．"
How challenging is it to teach people to use sonar？
"Many students are surprised how quickly results come． （4） It's in the mind"．

Today is my（1） eightieth birthday． After dinner， I was holding Grandpa's hand and taking a walk in the park as usual．"Where are the peanuts？ Give me now!"

He acted（3） he was seeing them for the first time．At that moment， my tears ran down（4） a disease happening to him．
Poor Grandpa! He fell ill with Alzheimer's disease （阿尔茨海默症） last year．The doctor said it was a progressive brain disorder which （5） destroy （ 破坏） a person's memory．The patient might not also be able to make reasonable judgments（判断）．The saddest part was that it was a lifelong disease．But when my parents invited him to stay with us， he refused and said he liked（6） ．One day， he forgot to turn off the fire after cooking porridge． Luckily， one of his（7） came to help him before the fire could spread．
It was then that my parents（8） Grandpa to live with us． Often， he would forget my name and ask me who I was and what I was doing in his house．Each time I would answer （9） "It's me， your little Jenny， Grandpa!"
