《We’re fighters》
——Johnny
In the face of the coronavirus epidemic, everything seems to be in chaos. Some people are out of work and they’re feeling the pinch. Some people are working in the front line of medical care saving people’s lives. Students don’t have school to go to, while nurses and doctors don’t have a chance to go back home. But Chinese people are a resolute and determined people. We tend to grit our teeth and tackle problems head-on. Today we stick together and we say we will fight till the bitter end. We will show some resolve when we are faced with adversity and we have the never-say-die attitude. We will survive this horrible epidemic and pick ourselves up and carry on!
