2020年开年，一场突如其来的疫情打乱了人们的正常生活节奏。面对着疫情，全国各条战线的人民齐心协力，用不同的方式共同抗疫，涌现出了许多感人的故事。在国内知名英语在线教育品牌举办的Talk演讲比赛中，一线抗疫人员王爱诚就用自己的亲身经历，为大家传递了满满的正能量。

　　在疫情刚开始时，有超过200万的海外华人处于一个非常困难的境地，而身在民航工作的王爱诚就是要把这些同胞带回家。除了要把这些同胞带回家，王爱诚和同事们还要严防海外疫情输入。他的工作所在地——呼和浩特机场，抵达的1352名旅客中，有1314名被隔离，隔离率达到了97%，宽进和严防成为了王爱诚那时工作的主旋律。

　　作为一名民航消防战斗员，王爱诚加入了志愿抗疫突击队伍。在第一次执行重大公共卫生处置的过程中，他经历了太多的第一次，第一次穿个人防护服，第一次快速对乘客进行流行病学检查，第一次被称为英雄，第一次穿纸尿裤……

　　据王爱诚介绍，最高级别的个人防护服包含9件装备，标准穿戴步骤13项，更换一次需要30分钟。这项日常工作复杂且耗时，病毒传染速度那么快，怎样挤时间？ 秘密武器是：“纸尿裤”！ 穿上纸尿裤，在平均10小时的工作时间里 ，他们做到了不吃不喝不去卫生间！ 经过努力，王爱诚和他的团队最终把一架航班平均12个小时的保障时间缩短为5小时。

　　在完成任务之后，王爱诚和其他工作人员需要隔离14天。在乘坐大巴前往隔离酒店的时候，很多附近的居民，他们拍到了警车开道和酒店工作人员严阵以待的画面，其中一个人还配上了“疑似入境感染人员在此隔离”的文字。 酒店随即发声明辟谣“入住的客人是抗疫英雄，他们在一线保护我们，我们应共同守护他们的荣誉。”第一次被称为英雄，第一次体会到万众一心，在那一刻王爱诚体会到了那份荣誉的重要性，再多的付出也是值得的。

　　在抗疫的过程中，王爱诚感动着别人，也被别人感动着，这些人包括快递员、出租车司机、科研人员…...这些人是主动在家隔离的每一位公民，是你是我。而这些是深埋在中华民族血液里的爱国观，责任观，奉献观，它一经激发就会喷涌而出，势不可挡，将中华民族的每一位同胞凝聚在一起， 能够战胜种种艰难险阻。战胜疫情，不是“我能行”，也不是“他或她能行”，是“我们能行”。

　　Talk演讲比赛是开言英语官方举办的线下活动，旨在通过让广大学员面对面的沟通和交流，高效快速提升英语能力，尤其是口语的表达能力。除此之外，开言英语还会在每周举办线下WeMeet英语角以及Open粉丝见面会，增进学员之间的学习黏性，激发学习热情。

　　最后，将王爱诚在Talk演讲比赛中的《First Time》主题演讲英文版送给大家，一次感受那满满的正能量。

Hello you guys! I'm so excited.

Before I deliver my speech, there is a question: “Do you have the experience that coming back (to) China from other countries after the outbreak (of COVID-19)?"  

If you do, please put your hands up to (for) me. Okay, I just got few hands.  

So, maybe it means most of you were in quarantine during the outbreak.

Well, my experience is quite different from you guys.

So, today please let me take all of you to review this epidemic with a different perspective.

At the end of last year, Covid-19 outbroke in Wuhan. In this war of epidemic, with the hard work and tremendous sacrifice, we finally made a great achievement in our response to covid-19.  

It was my first time to execute this important mission.

When we started to return to work, there were a lot of people who live abroad are still going through a bad time.  

Please guess, how many people are stranded overseas recently?  

Over two million people!  

I work for aviation, so help all of our compatriots return to our motherland is our wish, and also is my duty.  

But we are still responsible for preventing the virus invasion from other countries, which is also a formidable task.  

In Hohhot airport, where I work, once there were 1314 arrived passengers being isolated with the total number of 1352.  

On the (one) hand, helping all of these people return to our country is my wish; on the other hand, preventing the virus invasion (is) also important.

So, it's just like asking an adult male to dance on an egg!

As an aviation's firefighter, I am so honored that I can take part into (in) the “Commando of (fighting) COVID-19”.

It was my first time to execute the mission which is important and directly related to public health.

I witnessed how a responsible country completed this impossible mission and I also experienced so much unforgettable "first time".

And the first one is, the first time wearing personal protective equipment.  

Disinfecting passengers' luggage and putting all of these through security was our main duty,

which needed cooperation with lots of custom sections: the Customs, Immigration Inspection and Medical Care, etc.  

When a plane has arrived, every passenger must do the epidemic examination.  

And only by this way can we understand the specific number of definite cases and suspected cases,

which has a significant meaning for therapy and quarantine later.  

So, honestly, the more we finished our work quickly,  

the more "Country's Gate" would be stabilized and the more passengers would be safe.

This picture is the Personal Protective Equipment.

After the outbreak, I believe most of you guys are familiar with it.

But do you know, the highest level of Personal Protective Equipment includes nine items, and thirteen standard steps to put in on.  

Moreover, it spends at least thirty minutes to put on and off at a time.  

This daily work is so complicated and time-consuming.  

As we all know, COVID-19 infects people rapidly and radically.

So, how can we save time?

Our magic weapon is dipper!

We diaper (for) over ten hours.

We do not drink, do not eat, do not go to toilet.

In the end, we finally reduced the time from twelve hours to five hours.  

It was my first time to wear diaper.  

 (It was) Interesting, even a little bit comfortable, I have to say.

But I still hope the second time will happen at least when I am over eighty years old.

The next one is the first time being called “hero”.

When we just finished our mission, we were noticed we needed (to) quarantine in (for) two weeks.  

And at the first day, when our buses (were) driving to the isolation hotel,  

There were lots of residents nearby the hotel took a picture, which included lots of police cars driving in a line and serious hotel staffs' faces.  

One of the neighbors uploaded this picture and wrote “Patients who got coronavirus living here” as (the) description.

Well, fortunately, the hotel immediately issued an online statement:  

"The guests living here are heroes who fight (against) coronavirus for our lives, so we should guard their honor together."

This statement was read for over six thousand times at that afternoon.

And since that moment, I realize I would like to sacrifice anything for guarding this honor.  

The last one is, the first time I felt that "All Chinese are united as one".  

Let us go back to the day when we just received our mission.  

At that moment, the COVID-19 was at its peak. I mean, the arrived passengers' isolation rate has reached 97 percent.  

So, without time to make sure what exactly our mission was, we just entered the field promptly.

On the way to the front line, the heroes who rescue Wuhan popped up in my mind.

They fought against disease; they constructed hospitals in ten days; and they (were) busy delivering the supplies.

They showed same patriotism and the sense of responsibility through different behaviors.  

I believe there are lots of people who feel this power and being motivated by this power to fight against coronavirus in their own battlegrounds respectively.

And I was definitely not the only one.  

They are deliverymen, taxi drivers, or researchers, and so on.

All of this patriotism, and the sense of responsibility and dedication flow in every Chinese's blood vessel in peacetime, I believe.  

Once a challenge appears, all of these powers will rush out of our body and link every Chinese together,

(help us) to conquer any kind of danger.  

It's a convincing evidence that COVID-19 has been controlled so fast in China.

Now standing in this huge stage and delivering my speech in the most popular language in the world, it makes me so excited about…  

 “Can I find some interesting or meaningful sentences as my ending?”

But after lots of time threw up my drafts, I just realized the most words I really want to say to you guys is, “Thank you”.

Because it's you (who) quarantine yourself actively;  

it's you (who) fill in the report sheet of the history of going out honestly;

it's you (who) response to the “Return to Work” actively.  

And if without all of you guys' sacrifice, I don't believe we can finish our mission such smoothly.  

So, when we talk about coronavirus, it's not about “I can”, it's not about “He/ She can”. It's “We can”. We can conquer the coronavirus and we made it.  

Thank you!  

Thank you to my great country, China!

Thanks!
