34、he following weeks, the number of confirmed cases (确诊病例) exploded, reaching over 10,000 by the time of the lockdown. The lockdown affected 16 million people across the country.

35、andemicOn March 11, the World Health Organization (WHO) Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus officially declared COVID-19 as a global pandemic. This was due to a growing number of cases around the world. In his announcement, Ghebreyesus called on governments to slow down the spread of the vir
36、us by taking “immediate and urgent actions”. By this time, there were more than 20,000 cases in Europe, including 1,000 deaths, as well as 1,000 cases in the US. Summer Olympics delayedOn March 24, President of the International Olympic Committee (IOC) Thomas Bach and Japanese Prime Minister Abe Shi
37、nzo held a video conference in which they agreed that the 2020 Summer Olympic Games, which were planned to be held in Tokyo, would be put off until the following year for public safety. The event has hardly been cancelled or delayed-usually only in times of war. However, the leaders agreed that the
38、Olympic flame would remain in Tokyo until the games can start again in order to stand as a “light at the end of the tunnel”. US hits over 1 million casesOn April 28, the US officially recorded over one million COVID-19 cases nationwide. This came just four days after it was announced that the virus
39、had led to over 50,000 deaths across the country. The virus spread rapidly across the country, as the first case had been recorded three months earlier.

44、fore April 28th in the US.As an English person, I can speak three languagesEnglish, German and French, so do you think British people are very good language learners? The fact is that they arent. Some statistics from the survey done by the European Commission (欧盟委员会) showed that 62% of the British p
45、eople only speak English. 38% speak at least one foreign language and 18% speak two or more. Compared with the British people, 56% of the people in other European countries speak at least one foreign language and 28% speak two or more.

Many European people can have a conversation in English. Thats why many people in the UK dont think it is necessary to learn a forei
