We call on the people of all countries to work together to build a community with a shared future for mankind, to build an open, inclusive, clean, and beautiful world that enjoys lasting peace, universal security, and common prosperity.
From Xi Jinping’s report at the 19th CPC National Congress
1 What is your understanding of “a community with a shared future for mankind”
2 How is the idea reflected in the MSF doctor’s journal
Activity 4
1 What is your understanding of “a community with a shared future for mankind”
Today, humankind is faced with many challenges; the issue concerning the direction the international community is going in draws attention. Under this background, the role of major countries is particularly crucial. The international community calls for a leading force that advocates fairness and justice, promotes win-win cooperation, defends progress, unity and common understanding, and advocates the whole world as one community.
Activity 4
Think and share
2 How is the idea reflected in the MSF doctor’s journal
The author mentioned that Ebola has no respect for borders. This indicates that borders are artificial. Many human differences are similarly artificial or unimportant when compared to what unites people. Doctors and others involved in the fight against the disease were united by their common values of respecting and saving human life.
Activity 4
1. What is your understanding of the first sentence in Paragraph 6
To be caught up in such a crisis creates powerful bonds between people, not only between carers and patients, but also between all those who have come from different parts of the world and joined together in a common cause.
MSF emphasizes that there are no borders in the face of disease.
This small but unexpected success compensated for many other less fortunate cases.
2. What difficulties do you think the author might have faced during his work
We have worked together, surrounded by blood, vomit and death.
The author might have to face death, the bad working conditions, and have difficulty in language.
As she talked, I could hear at least three different languages being spoken at the tables...
3. Do you know of any other similar organisations
What do they do
World Wildlife Fund
(WWF)
WWF has been active in China since 1980, when Dr. George Schaller arrived to work with Chinese scientists on field studies of the behaviour and ecology of the giant panda.
As the first international conservation organisation
invited to work in China, WWF faced not only the
problems of carrying out field research in the panda’s rugged,
inaccessible mountain home, but also the cultural and
political challenges of engaging in international
cooperation in the early days of China’s opening to the
outside world.
International Committee of the Red Cross
To protect victims of internal and international armed conflicts.

Provide medical care
Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF), or Doctors Without Borders in English, was founded in Paris in 1971 by a group of doctors and journalists. It is an independent, non-profit organisation whose mission is to provide medical care to those affected by conflict, epidemics, disasters or a lack of access to health care. It assists people based on need, regardless of which country they are from. The top priority goes to those in the most serious and immediate danger. Today, MSF has over 67, 000 team members from over 150 countries and regions.
Now read the information and answer the questions.

2 How is the idea reflected in the MSF doctor’s journal
We call on the people of all countries to work together to build a community with a shared future for mankind, to build an open, inclusive, clean, and beautiful world that enjoys lasting peace, universal security, and common prosperity.
From Xi Jinping’ s report at the 19th CPC National Congress
The author mentioned that Ebola has no respect for borders. This indicates that borders are artificial. Many human differences are similarly artificial or unimportant when compared to what unites people. Doctors and others involved in the fight against the disease were united by their common values of respecting and saving human life.

All people live on the same earth, as if we were living in a “global village”. Anyone’s action will affect others. Only when all people on the earth work together can the world have great development.

1 What is your understanding of “a community with a shared future for mankind”
Today, humankind is faced with many challenges; the issue concerning the direction the international community is going in draws attention. Under this background, the role of major countries is particularly crucial. The international community calls for a leading force that advocates fairness and justice, promotes win-win cooperation, defends progress, unity and common understanding, and advocates the whole world as one community.

Para. 5: Just after my arrival, a family of six were brought here in the back of a van. All of them were infected. The twin girls and their parents soon died. We knew there was little hope for the brothers, but we did everything we could to save them. When we visited the ward the next morning, we were amazed to see that against all odds, both boys were still alive. Pascal and Daniel have since made a full recovery. This small but unexpected success compensated for many other less fortunate cases.
