Isolating around the world
The act of social distancing has become an effective protective measure against the novel
coronavirus and a part of everyday life across the world.Many countries have launched
different social distancing measures. Some are strict while others are creative.Let’s take a look
at three special quarantine(隔离)measures around the world.
Panama
With more than 3,000 confirmed cases by April 12,the central American country Panama
has announced strict quarantine measures.One of them is to separate people by gender to go
out.
Starting in April,males in the country are required to leave home on Tuesday.Thursday
and Saturday while females can go out on Monday,Wednesday and Friday every week.No one
is allowed to go out on Sundays.
To further prevent the spread of COVID-19,citizens are able to leave their homes for only
two hours at a time.
“This absolute quarantine is for nothing more than to save your life,”the country’s
security minister Juan Pino said at a news conference. But according to the Guardian,the restriction measures do not apply to civil servants or
other essential staff who are battling against the novel coronavirus on the trontlme.
Colombia
ID numbers are unique identification tools for individuals,but they may also be used to
decide when people can go out in Colombia during the novel coronavirus pandemic.According
to the BBC,people in some Colombian towns are allowed to be outside based on the last digit
of their national ID number.
For example,in northwest-central Colombia,people with an ID number ending in zero,four or seven are allowed to leave the house on Monday,while those with an ID number ending
in one,five or eight can go outside on Tuesday.Similar quarantine measures have been
proposed in the nearby country of Bolivia.
France
Though outdoor exercise is a good way to keep healthy,it can sometimes cause too many
people to gather in one place.In order to prevent the spread of COVID-19,Paris has banned all
outdoor exercise between 10 am and 7 pm.
Outside of this time span,people are allowed to exercise individually as long as it’s for
less than an hour and within one kilometer of their home.If people break the rule,they will
face fines of between€135(about 1,040 yuan)and€375.

B
My 11-year-old daughter has been awarded an academic scholarship to a private
schoo1.It’s only a small discount,but the scholarship means she’ll skip the waiting list
provided my husband and I can cover$20,000 a year.
Should we pay the private school fees,or choose free education instead?
I always assumed my children would go to a private schoo1,1ike I did.Not because my
family is wealthy,but because I believe that the best education is private.
It took years for me to make peace with the fact that my two children attended our local
public primary schoo1.
They’ll go to a private high school,I told myself.Yet here we are.My eldest is now in
her last year of primary school,and my husband and I will struggle to afford private schoo1.
If we’re to send our girl to private schoo1.I could increase my work hours.My law
degree was supposed to be my ticket to a good job and a solid income,but that’s not quite how
it turned out.
The guilt and expectations are mine alone.I'm terrified that my daughter’s potential will
be wasted at the public schoo1.And yet,I know that working more hours will make me break
down.
During many sleepless nights,I felt troubled by the decision.Although I want the best for
my daughter,I have my own dreams too.I can’t sacrifice everything for my precious girl.I
explain that I want to be a positive role model for my daughter,and an unhappy parent is
terrible strain on a family.I point out not even the privilege of private school will protect my
