After four years Chinese study in Peking University, she learnt that the University of Granada would open a de

23、 never seemed to be a big problem-until COVID-19 arrived. Touching our facesthe “T-zone” of our eyes, nose and mouth can mean giving ourselves this virus (病毒). This is why some scientists have suggested that we should avoid touching our faces. William Sawyer, from Henry the Hand, told The Washington

26、a social use: when you are talking to someone, for example, touching your face means you want to talk about another thing. Besides, its very hard to change this face-touching “because you dont even know youre doing it”, said Sawyer. But youre not alone. In a 2015 study, it was found that a group of

27、medical students touched their faces about 23 times an hourwith 44 percent of the touches in the “T-zones”. That was very surprising because medical students should know better.

The other focuses on kids playing in the snow. “With a news story, news stations tell you what they feel are the important details (细节).
