Online Class Notes (Tibo) [1 year course]

During the Covid time/pandemic I have to drive (my car) to other cities.
I came back too/very late and drove (a car) for a long time is tired for me. -> and driving for a long time is tiring for me / driving for a long time makes me tired

It is more than 500km away from SH  / it is 5h away from Sh (by car)

my English base / foundation is not well so I worry. -> is not solid / stable 

I always focus my job around my family or myself so I didn’t focus on the covid situation.

Just protect myself and do covid tests / nucleic acid tests once every 2 days / we need to have 48h covid tests.

I can feel the Covid policy is more open / relaxed than before

Last month I drove to Wenzhou twice.

The first time they asked me to do a lot of tests. When you go out from the highway / when you leave the highway you must do Covid tests even if you already had one in the morning (of your departure) but this time I just had to do a test when I left the highway.

They use a different official account on Wechat.

You just use Alipay to scan the code and they will ask you to register your personal info and then will give you a green code to scan when you do tests and finally you can go to some places where you want to go. -> and after that you are free to go where you want / after you finish the test you can go anywhere 

Shanghai’s policy is more convenient.
I think if the government wants to control the Covid situation / epidemic, the city should control the entire entertainment places like swimming pools or some kind of karaokes to limit big gatherings. Maybe it is useful , maybe it is an efficient way to control the epidemic.

I just know most of the karaokes are not allowed to open in Baoshan district.

Some people introduced Tianjin to me, they have a famous old town and he said in the south region people have old towns.

The old towns you find in the north are very different from those in the south. It is worth visiting 

They have talk shows it is a tradition there.
And then some Chinese dumplings.

I will choose to drive to different cities at first. / I prefer to go by car
If it is more than 1,000km away (from shanghai) I will choose to take a plane to the city and rent a car and choose some places to visit, book a hotel or just hang out.
