COVID-19 Campus Rules Of UBC Okanagan
The rules apply to all students, faculty and staff at UBC*s Okanagan campus.
Travel in BC
A Public Health Order for all health regions in British Columbia calls on all individuals, places of work and businesses in BC to significantly reduce social interactions and travel. The current order is in effect until February 1, 2021.
As many are currently making plans for the upcoming Winter Break, all members of the campus community are reminded all non-essential travel should be avoided. The current orders suspend all events and social gatherings to significantly reduce COVID-19 transmission related to social interactions. The order allows for university students to join family for the holidays as this is not considered a social gathering, but it is important to maintain a narrow household bubble.
International travel
If you plan to travel out of Canada during the Winter Break, make sure you are aware of current travel restrictions and are prepared for your trip. Carefully review the updated Travelling to Canada Guide for important information on who is eligible to travel, documents to prepare, ensuring you have health insurance, making a quarantine（self-isolation）plan, and more.
Measurement of body temperature and daily self-assessment when coining to campus
UBC's COVID-19 Campus Rules require that all students, faculty and staff must have their temperatures taken and assess themselves daily for COVID-19 symptoms prior to attending UBC premises. Please use the BC self-assessment tool at https：//bc. thrive, health/. Anyone experiencing symptoms should follow the guidance provided in the self-assessment tool.

“When day comes we ask ourselves,
where can we find light in this never-ending shade?”
On Wednesday, poet Amanda Gorman read her poem, “The Hill We Climb”, at the inauguration（宣誓就职）ceremony of President Joe Biden.
By Thursday, the 22-year-old was a superstar.
Gorman is the youngest poet in U.S. history to mark the change of presidential power. Past inaugural poets include famous writers like Robert Frost and Maya Angelou.
Gorman is a native of Los Angeles, California, and in 2017 was named the country’s first Youth Poet Laureate（桂冠）.She recently completed her studies at Harvard University.
On Wednesday, Gorman offered a hopeful future for a deeply divided country.
“We will not march back to what was,
but move to what shall be.
A country that is bruised（瘀紫的）but whole,
benevolent but bold,
fierce and free.”
Her reading—and the ceremony as a whole—took place exactly two weeks after a violent mob of supporters of then-President Donald Trump attacked and occupied the U.S. Capito Building.
Gorman says she had completed a little more than half of “The Hill He Climb” before the January 6 attack at the Capitol.
“That day gave me a second wave of energy to finish the poem,” said Gorman. She chose not to make direct note of the attack, but her references to the event were clear：
“We’ve seen a force that would shatter our nation.
rather than share it.
Would destroy our country if it meant delaying democracy（民主）.
And this effort very nearly succeeded.
But while democracy can be periodically delayed,
it can never be permanently defeated.”
Hours after the inauguration t her two books—which are to be released later this year—became number 1 and 2 on Amazon, com’s sales list. Gorman’s poetry collection “The Hill We Climb” and her children’s book “Change Sings” are set to be published in September.

NASA' s Artemis program not only hopes to land the next man and the first woman on the lunar south pole by 2024; it also expects them to spend up to seven days in the harsh environment, collecting samples and conducting experiments. To provide future space travelers with a comfortable shelter, two Dutch architects have built a habitat capable of withstanding the Moon's harsh conditions.
The Lanark, designed by Sebastian Aristotelis and Karl-Johan Sorensen of SAGA Space Architects, is made up of a lightweight, aluminum frame that can be efficiently compressed（压缩）for transport to the Moon. Once the astronauts reach their destination, they can easily unfold the mobile home. 328 solar panels on the frame help recharge the battery, ensuring uninterrupted power, while an airtight flexible seam（接缝）protects residents from temperatures as low as-49°F（-45℃）and wind speeds of up to 55 miles an hour.
Though the physical comforts are impressive, even more so are the features dedicated to the astronauts’ psychological well-being. A weather simulator that uses solar panels and built-in speakers to create varying weather patterns, like storms, rain, and a sunny day, helps ease the loneliness and weariness of conducting repetitive tasks and looking at the same environment for extended amounts of time.
Aristotelis and Sorenson recently put their creation to test in Moriusaq, Greenland. Located in an isolated region of Northern Greenland, the area boasts hurricane-force winds, temperatures of -22°F（-30℃），and 24 hours of darkness during the winter.
The space architects, who spent two months inside the capsule, tried to simulate（模拟）a lunar mission as much as possible. Their daily meals consisted of coffee, cold protein shakes, and hot soups, all made using powdered ingredients and water defrosted from the surrounding ice.
Aristotelis and Srensen say it exceeded their wildest expectations. “The capsule performed really well—we could sustain a comfortable indoor climate even to the very end of the expedition, which got quite a bit colder and windier than we had expected.”
28. What is NASA' s Artemis program designed to do?
A. To send people to the South Pole.
B. To land astronauts on the Moon.
C. To provide space travel for tourists.
D. To supply Dutch residents with the shelter.
29. What do you learn about The Lunark?
A. It can be moved easily and quickly. B. It is powered by winds on the Pole.
C. It is used to collect samples on Mars. D. It was created by NASA scientists.
30. The weather simulator will contribute to .
A. cleaner air B. greener plants
C. weaker strength D. better mental health
31. Aristotelis and Sorenson chose Moriusaq, Greenland to test the capsule because of .
A. its extreme climate B. its freezing ocean
C. its mild weather D. its primitive environment
D
With over 4. 1 billion people, or around 55 percent of the world' s population, living in urban areas, cities and towns worldwide are getting increasingly congested. In addition to spending many hours stuck in traffic, residents are also exposed to high air pollution levels caused by transportation emissions. Now, Saudi Arabia hopes to revolutionize urban living with “The Line”—a city designed around nature, without cars and roads!
“The Line” is designed by Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman（MBS） Located in NEOM—a 10,000-square-mile high-tech planned development on the Red Sea coast in the northwestern Saudi province of Tabu—The Line will be the cornerstone of MBS s Saudi Vision 2030. The plan aims to diversify Saudi Arabia' s oil-dependent economy into other sectors, like tourism, and create exciting job opportunities for its citizens.
The 105-mile-long city, expected to cost between $100 billion and $200 billion, will be built along a straight line and is made up of several self-sustaining communities. To ensure all services are within a short, five-minute walk, each community will feature a three-layer infrastructure （基础设施）.
The top “pedestrian layer” will be void of cars and roads, allowing residents to freely walk and bike in the surrounding green spaces. The second “service layer”，will include all essential daily services, such as schools, leisure facilities. and grocery stores. The third “spine layer” will house high-speed subway and autonomous vehicles capable of transporting residents across communities in less than 20 minutes. The entire city will be powered with renewable clean energy sources such as solar and wind, and possibly even hydrogen.
If all goes according to plan t construction of this complex project will start before the 1st quarter of 2021. In addition to providing up to a million residents with a clean and stress-free living environment, The Line is expected to create 380,000 new jobs, start economic diversification, and contribute an astounding $ 48 billion to Saudi Arabia’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP) by 2030. More importantly, MBS believes it will provide governments worldwide a “blueprint for how people and planet can co-exist in harmony.”
32. We can infer that “The Line” will be .
A. temporary B. primitive C. eco-friendly D. conventional
33. What is The Line meant to result in?

Memory is the chain that connects our past to our present. If it breaks, we're left untied, incapable of leaving the present moment, and unable to embrace the future. 36 This results in memories, facts, and other information getting lost over time. Luckily, there are some ways you can prevent this.
Repeat important information out loud. This is an extremely simple solution. 37 You're actually creating a pattern and sound that will make the information easier to recall in the future.
Create clear associations in your head. Paint a picture in your mind to make names, dates, and objects easier to remember. If you're bad with names and you meet someone named Evelynn, you might think, “Christmas Eve” and picture this person dressed as Santa. 38 And it can be a fun exercise as well!
