Last year, Bob visited Vancouver, Canada alone. He went there to give a talk on the environment. When it was over, he traveled to the Rocky Mountains and stayed in the Maple Leaf Hotel. He then took a short walk to look at the local (当地的) plants in the forest. After a few hours, he knew he took the wrong way, but was sure he could get back to the hotel.
However, after walking for several hours the next day, Bob knew he was in trouble. "I had my mobile phone, but the battery (电池) was almost dead. I could probably make just one call. But I didn't know the number of my hotel and I didn't want to worry my family unless I really had to," said Bob. He went on walking for three more days. He knew which plants he could eat and he had little trouble finding them.
On the fourth day, he knew it was hopeless and decided to call his family. "He was quite calm when he spoke to me on the phone," said Shirley, Bob's wife (妻子). "He seemed to be in control of the situation. " Shirley called the Maple Leaf Hotel at once. "That week lots of visitors went to the city to watch basketball games, and we thought Mr. Rigsby went there too," said the hotel owner. As soon as Shirley phoned, the hotel sent out some people to look for Bob. They found him about one hour later, and luckily he was quite unhurt.
"I will never go to the forest without a guide. I never want an experience like that again," said Bob.

In the end of 2019, the novel coronavirus (2019-COVID)(新型冠状病毒) was first detected in Wuhan City, Hubei Province. Then it spread to Zhejiang, Guangdong, Henan, Hunan and many other provinces. It even spread to other countries. Most people who were infected(被感染) with 2019-COVID suffered from a fever or a cough. Some even died.
Don't be afraid. Here is some advice to help you protect yourself when it comes.
Wash your hands. You need to wash your hands with soap and running water before you eat, after you use the toilet(厕所), and after you come home from outside. Because your hands may carry viruses.
Cover your nose and mouth. Viruses can travel as far as one meter through the air, so you'd better stand a proper distance while talking to others. And always cover your mouth and nose with a piece of paper when you sneeze (打喷嚏) or cough, and then wash your hands.
Wear a mask(口罩). Some doctors say that we must wear masks and they can stop the viruses as much as 80%, but if you don't wash your hands often, it's no use wearing a mask. And it's necessary to wear the mask in the groups of people.
