Humans are no strangers to widespread virus,and each time a vaccine(疫苗）is developed,

it gives us hope for the future. Now, the world is waiting for a vaccine to fight COVID-19.

Scientists worldwide have been rolling up their sleeves to work toward an effective novel

coronavirus vaccine.

Under the coordination(协调）of the World Health Organization (WHO),up to 172

countries have been engaging with the "largest and most diver COVID-19 vaccine portfolio",a

plan known as the COVAX Global Vaccines Facility.

COVAX is a system for joint purchasing and balancing the risks of multiple vaccines. When

a vaccine proves to be safe and effective, all countries within the facility will be able to access it,

according to Xinhua.

The plan is aimed to ensure that all countries, no matter their economic status, can get the

vaccine in a timely manner when one is available. It also makes sure that prices will be kept as

low as possible.

＂A number of vaccines are now in the final stage of clinical trials," said WHO Director-

General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus on Aug 24,adding that the goal of COVAX is to deliver at

least 2 billion dos of a vaccine by the end of 2021.

According to the WHO, at prent, nine potential vaccines are part of the portfolio.

To guarantee the equal access and fair assignment of COVID-19 vaccines,the WHO has said

that the world needs to prevent vaccine nationalism-countries putting their own interests ahead of

others in trying to cure supplies of a possible vaccine.

＂Vaccine nationalism only helps the virus,"Tedros said, warning that it would lead to a

prolonged pandemic(疫情） if only a small number of countries got most of the supply.

＂Like an orchestra,we need all instruments to be played in harmony to create music that

everyone enjoys," he said.

Vaccine development looks promising,as veral countries have made great progress. Russia

began production of its first batch of a COVID-19 vaccine on Aug 15, according to its health

ministry. It's the world's first registered vaccine. Four Chine vaccine candidates have started

international stage-3 clinical trials.

项。

At some point when you were a child,a trusted adult likely told you that if you held a

ashell up to your ear, you'd hear the ocean. 36 Seashells are not special capsules that have

stored the sounds of their native homes.

But what exactly is that rushing sound you're hearing? 37 ＂The sound of an empty shell

held up to the ear is created by echoes(回声）from sounds made in the environment.”Geerat J.

Vermeil, a distinguished professor of Earth and Planetary Sciences at the University of

California,told us.

38 Other structures with openings, like empty bowls or bottles, can produce similar sounds.

“When the noi around us hits the internal surface of this hard ashell, multiple reflection

occurs,” said Vermeil. "Whether you hold a ashell or the mouth of an empty bowl around your

ear, you experience the ocean-like sound quality as a result of a phenomenon called “resonance."

39 It says that you're hearing the sound of your own rushing blood in your body. But

scientists also clarify that it doesn't change with variation of pul or blood pressure. “All this is

perhaps a bit unimportant, but a more interesting question is what controls the frequencies of

echoes" Vermeil added,indicating that there's a need for further rearch into shape, volume and

shell thickness in relation to pitch. 40 Actually, if you put a shell to your ear on the beach, the

sounds you hear will include partly some ocean nois.

A. The same goes for shells.

B. The answer is less mystical.

effect is not limited to shells.

D. Now you probably know that this is not true.

E. Scientists are working hard to find the answer.

F. Maybe the original myth is not completely fal.

G. There's another explanation for the rushing sound in a ashell.
