On Feb 12, Dalian (not his real name) was taking a train to Changsha, Hunan, for a business trip. While on the train, he went into a carriage (车厢) to have lunch and chose to remain in the carriage. He did not realize that the carriage was only for people heading to Wuhan.
Several hours later, when the train arrived in Wuhan, Dalian was asked to get off, as he was in the special carriage. Although he was surprised, he didn’t want to cause trouble and got off the carriage with just a single bag.
As Wuhan had been locked down because of the epidemic, Dalian couldn’t find a hotel to stay in. Feeling at a loss, he saw a notice online looking for volunteers to work in hospitals. The payment was 500 yuan a day. Dalian decided to give it a try.
He soon became a volunteer at Wuhan No 1 Hospital. He was responsible for taking out trash, mopping (拖) the floor, disinfecting (消毒) the hospital, dealing with used protective suits and bringing meals to patients.
The young man, reportedly from northeast China, had to work 12 hours every day, changing his protective suit three times a day. While working, he couldn’t drink anything or go to the bathroom. He also had to have close contact with infected patients, which is risky.
 Dalian was afraid of getting infected at first. “When I entered the wards (病房), I was kind of frozen (僵硬的) and felt like I couldn’t move,” he said. But after seeing more patients get better, his fear gradually went away.
 Dalian’s story has since gone viral (走红的) online. People were surprised by his experience, but also described him as having “a heart of gold”.

文章翻译
2月12日，大连(化名)坐火车去湖南长沙出差。在火车上时,他走进车厢吃午饭并且选择一直待在在车厢里。他不知道车厢是专为去武汉的人准备的
 几个小时后，当火车到达武汉时，大连被要求下车，因为他在特别车厢里。虽然他很惊讶，但他不想惹麻烦，所以只拿了一个包就下了车。
 由于流行病，武汉已被封锁，大连找不到旅馆住。在茫然之际，他在网上看到一则招聘志愿者到医院工作的广告。报酬是每天500元。大连决定试一试。
 他很快就成为了武汉第一医院的一名志愿者。他负责倒垃圾,拖地板,消毒医院,处理病人使用防护服同时给病人带饭。
据报道，这名来自中国东北的年轻人每天要工作12个小时，每天要换三次防护服。工作时，他不能喝任何东西，也不能上厕所。他还必须与受感染的病人有密切接触，这是有风险的。
大连起初害怕被感染。他说，当我走进病房，我整个人都是僵硬的,感觉自己不能动动。但在看到越来越多的病人好转后，他的恐惧逐渐消失了。
大连故事已经在网络走红的。人们对他的经历感到惊讶，但也形容他有一颗金子般的心。
