Everybody will have some health problems. Here are Mr. Black’s problems and his doctor’s advice. I hope they can help you.
Mr. Black’s problems My name is David Black. I live in a small house. I never go out when the weather is cold or hot, because I am worried I’ll have a cold. I don’t go out often because I don’t want to talk with others. I hardly exercise, but sometimes I take a walk in my garden. After I walk for a few minutes, I have to take a rest. I am always very weak and tired. I often have a headache, but I don’t want to see a doctor. What should I do? |
Dr. Smith’s advice Traditional Chinese doctors believe we need a balance of yin and yang to be healthy. I think you have too much yin because you are always worried about something and you don’t like going out or talking with others. I think you should eat some yang foods, like beef and you need to exercise more. Also, talking with others can make you feel relaxed. And if you don’t feel very well, it’s important for you to go to see a doctor. And you will feel better after you take some Chinese medicine. |

【推荐2】At the beginning of 2021, the Chinese government said it would provide free COVID-19 vaccines (疫苗) to all Chinese citizens. Since then, millions of people have gotten the vaccine. Let’s make a closer look.
▲
The vaccine is given by injection (注射). It’s suggested to get two doses. You should wait about two weeks after the first dose to get the second one.
Can people of all ages get vaccinated?
The vaccines have been tested among three different age groups: 3 to 17, 18 to 59, and 60 and above. The 18 to 59 age group has the most data (数据) and the vaccines have been proven to be safe for this group. The other two groups are expected to be included soon.
Is there anyone who shouldn’t get vaccinated?
Experts said the vaccines are safe for most people. But people who have serious diseases such as cancer or diabetes (糖尿病), or people who are allergic (过敏的) to any of the vaccine’s ingredients, should not get it. People who want to get the vaccine should not get any other vaccines during the same period.
Do I still need to wear a mask in public places after I’ve been vaccinated?
Yes. It takes a few weeks for the body to build immunity after vaccination. This means it’s possible for a person to get infected (传染的) just after vaccination. There’s also a small chance that your body won’t build immunity. So before the population becomes immune to the virus, it’s highly encouraged to keep wearing masks, practicing social distancing (社交隔离) and washing your hands after getting vaccinated.

Instead of paying more attention to preventing more people from getting COVID-19, now China’s main tasks are protecting people’s health and preventing people from becoming serious patients. At this time, Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) continues to play its part in China’s fight against COVID-19.
On January 5, China showed the 10th version(版本)of the medication guide to COVID-19, which fully shows the valuable experience of using TCM in the treatment of serious patients. The new article introduces special TCM treatments for serious patients and puts forward some TCM solutions for children.
At the present time, the importance of TCM in the fight against COVID-19 is mainly in these two parts.
“First, patients with mild and ordinary symptoms(轻微和普通症状)can depend on TCM as the leading treatment. They can choose proper TCM for home treatment to avoid going to the hospitals,” said Huang Luqi, director of the National Administration of Traditional Chinese Medicine.
“Then, TCM plays a part in helping people become healthy totally. After some days, many patients still cough, feel sleepy, and have other symptoms. TCM can treat those symptoms,” Huang said.
In Daming County, Handan City of North China’s Hebei Province, doctors are going to some villages, providing free consultations and diagnosis(就诊和诊断)for elderly villagers, and giving away free medicines, most of which are TCM and mixtures.
“I’ve got medicine here twice, and after taking the medicine, my family members have felt better,” said a villager called Wang Aijiao.

Thanks for your letter. Do you want to know about my evening? Well, I usually get home from work at 6:00 pm. I cook dinner for my family—my parents, my sister and my brother. After dinner I usually watch TV, play computer games or play chess. I like playing chess because my father works in a chess club. I take a shower at around nine o’clock and then go to bed at around nine- thirty. Sometimes I read some books because I can learn something about my work.
How about your evening? Write to me soon, please.
Best wishes,
Victor
