The epidemic (疫情) is scary. But it’s not all bad. In fact, we can learn some rules from it.

Learn to be responsible 学会担当.

When facing the epidemic, everyone has to be ready(做好准备). People have different responsibilities (责任). Doctors fight on the frontline to treat patients. Police officers stay in position to keep us safe on the roads. Delivery men (快递员) deliver daily things to us. What are your responsibilities? You can follow the latest news(最新消息) and exercise to keep your body healthy and keep the virus (病毒) away.

Learn to respect 学会敬畏.

Feeling afraid is not a bad thing. You can learn to look at everything with respect(敬畏). When you respect laws(法律), you are careful about what you do. When you respect others, you are kind to them. When you respect nature(自然), you try to protect it. Don’t just be afraid. Try to do what you believe in and do it with a respectful mind.

Learn to tell right from wrong 学会甄别.

If you want to learn about something, you can easily find a lot of information about it online.

But is all of it right? Don’t get lost (迷失) in a sea of information. Think critically (批判性地). You can also ask your parents or teachers and listen to what they say.

Learn to be calm 学会从容.

You may feel worried(焦虑). These feelings are everywhere. When there are unexpected (意外的) changes(变化), people might feel like this. But there are always unexpected changes in our lives. Try to accept them calmly. This can help you face those changes and find ways to deal with (应对) them.

Learn to be alone 学会独处.

The epidemic makes us to stay at home. You may feel bored and miss your friends. But being alone isn’t a bad thing. You have time to do things that you didn’t have time to do before. Also, you can learn to be independent (独立的).

Last weekend,Lucy and I went to a park, where she discovered a track with large bumps( 凸块)and sharp turns. At the beginning, I thought Lucy was able to ride her bike along the track, but she quickly found that her bike was too low to the ground and kept getting stuck( 卡住) on top of the bump.

Lucy looked at me with fear because she was still a biking newbie. I tried to encourage her too, but really, I was thinking this is going to be a disaster . Not because I thought she would get hurt. More because I thought she wouldn’t be able to pick up enough speed to balance, then get really discouraged, and give up quickly. I imagined her throwing her bicycle to the ground and then crying all the way home.

However, I was only half right. Lucy did have a lot of trouble riding the bike. She couldn’t find her balance. She fell many times. At one point, she almost started crying because younger kids were getting angry that she was slowing everyone else down. But she did not give up. She kept picking herself up and trying again. She even took the bike off the track and into the main park to practice pushing off and picking up speed on a flat ground. When she felt more confident, she came back. Then she did it over and over again until she finally reached her goal of going around the whole track without falling once. Then she didn’t want to leave and everyone was cheering her on.

This was not a day that ended in a disaster. It was a day when Lucy learned that perseverance pays off.

Bertie was sad for weeks, months after the lion died. There was nothing I could do to cheer him or even console (安慰) him. He would sit for hours in his room, or go off on long walks all on his own. He seemed so shut away inside himself, so distant. Try as I did, I could not reach him.

? Then one day I was in the kitchen here, when I saw him hurrying down the hill, waving his stick and shouting for me. “I’ve got it,” he cried, as he came in, “I’ve got it at last. ” He showed me the end of his stick. It was white. “See that, Millie?” “Chalk! It’s chalk underneath, isn’t it?”

“So?” I said.

“You know the famous White Horse on the hillside at Uffington, the one they carved out of the chalk a thousand years ago? That horse never died, did it? It’s still alive, isn’t it? Well, that’s what we’re going to do, so he will never be forgotten. We’ll carve The White Prince out on the hillside-he’ll be there forever, and he’ll be white forever too. ”

“It’ll take a bit of time, won’t it?” I said.

“We’ve got plenty, haven’t we?” he replied, with the same smile he had smiled at me when he was a ten-year-old boy asking me if he could come back and mend my kite for me.

? Every spare hour we had, we were up there scraping (刨土) away with spades (铲子), and we had buckets (桶) to carry away the earth. It was hard, back-breaking work, but it was a labour of love. We did it, Bertie and I, we did it together-paws, claws, tail, mane, until he was complete and perfect in every detail.

?It was just after we’d finished that the butterflies first came. We noticed that when the sun comes out after the rain in the summer, the butterflies-Adonis Blues, they are, I looked them up-come out to drink on the chalk face. Then The White Prince becomes a butterfly lion, and breathes again like a living creature.

? So now you know how Bertie’s white lion became The White Prince and how The White Prince became our butterfly lion.
