A quiet spring

It is a warm afternoon in late March. Everyone can feel the coming of spring. The magnolia is in blossom. The cherry blossom falls. In other years than this, people would pour into the park to smell the fragrance of the flowers. But the place is empty, there is no visitor and noise this year. The flowers lying on both sides are blooming lonely and quietly.

The newly epidemic suddenly arrived in Shanghai early this month. As a result, the school is closed and students study online from home. Many communities are closed and controlled, people are asked to stay at home to receive nucleic acid test day by day. The whole city is stopped and experiencing a severe test. The government take any measures trying to reduce the risk of the disease spreading in the whole city. There are different voices coming out, worries, fears, doubts, even complains. However, during this difficult time, most of the people shows their understanding and stay calmful all the time. They support all the measures and cooperate to take test on time no matter in cold and rainy days.

Looking back into the history, Shanghai develop smoothly and only meet a few difficulties in the last 30 years. The reason behind is the Shanghainese people. They are bursting with vitality and they are capable of surviving any hardship and oppression.

The flowers are in blossom since spring is coming. Thus, people have confidence that life will return to the normal way in not too long time.
