雙語|冬季抗疫需開窗通風 德國學校建議學生帶毯子上學
帶着毯子去上學？別以爲是學校組織露營，這是德國學校的校長們發佈的建議。因爲新冠疫情持續，政府要求學校定期開窗通風，但是隨着天氣轉涼，開窗的教室難免有些冷，所以校長要求學生穿得暖暖的、戴着帽子手套上課。
Schools in Germany are advising pupils to bring blankets to class and wear hats, coats and scarves during lessons as part of the fight against the coronavirus.
作爲抗疫舉措之一，德國學校建議學生帶毯子來上學，戴帽子圍巾、穿厚外套上課。
Head teachers have issued the advice in response to new government guidelines that require schools to ventilate classrooms by opening the windows every twenty minutes.
新的政府指導意見要求學校每20分鐘要開窗通風一次，爲此各校長髮布了這一建議。
Leaving the windows open a crack is not enough. Schools have been told to open classroom windows fully for three to five minutes, and to open doors as well when possible so air can circulate.
窗戶只開一條縫是不夠的。政府要求學校每次要保持教室窗戶大開長達3到5分鐘，如果可能的話也要打開門，以保持空氣流通。

With winter temperatures often well below zero, no one is under any illusions about how cold classrooms could get.
冬天氣溫通常是零下好幾度，誰都能想象到開窗通風情況下教室會有多冷。
A sixth form college in Bochum has advised pupils to bring “warm clothes with hoods or hats and blankets” to class, and secondary schools in Düsseldorf are allowing pupils to wear coats and gloves during lessons.

She said staff and pupils would have to dress “according to the onion principle” — with multiple layers they can remove as classrooms warm up between ventilation times.
她指出，教職人員和學生將必須“根據洋蔥原則”來穿衣，在通風間隔期間教室溫度回升時，他們可以脫去外層的衣服。
But she accused regional governments of failing to plan adequately for the cold months and said if they’d had more warning schools could have put up plastic shields between pupils to avoid infection.
但她指責地方政府未能爲寒冷冬月做好周全安排。她說，如果當初政府更早提出警告，學校就可以在學生之間設置塑料分隔屏來避免感染。
