Coronavirus: Venice Carnival closes as Italy imposes lockdown
23 February 2020
Italian officials have cut short the Venice Carnival as they try to control what is now the worst outbreak of the coronavirus in Europe.
Authorities in the Veneto region said the event would end later on Sunday, two days earlier than scheduled. Italy has by far the highest
number of coronavirus cases in Europe, with 152. Three people have died. Italy has imposed strict quarantine restrictions in two northern
"hotspot" regions close to Milan and Venice.
About 50,000 people cannot enter or leave several towns in Veneto and Lombardy for the next two weeks without special permission. Even
outside the zone, many businesses and schools have suspended activities. and sporting events have been cancelled. The BBC's Mark
Lowen described the situation just outside the zone. ln neighbouring Austria, a train from Venice was stopped at the Austrian border after it
emerged that two passengers had fever symptoms. Austria's Interior Minister Karl Nehammer later confirmed to the BBC that the pair tes-
ted negative for coronavirus.
All authorities have acted quickly and with great caution in this case," said Mr Nehammer in a statement. "The reporting chain worked
without delay." Elsewhere, authorities in South Korea and Iran are battling to control rising numbers of infections. South Korea has raised
its coronavirus alert to the "highest level".
The new strain of coronavirus, which originated last year in Hubei province in China, causes a respiratory disease called Covid-19. China
has seen more than 76,000 infections and 2,442 deaths.
What is happening in Italy?
Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte announced on Saturday that "extraordinary measures" would come into force to try to stem the rising num-
ber of coronavirus cases.
He said the quarantine restrictions could last for weeks. Police, and if necessary the armed forces, will have the authority to ensure the re-
gulations are enforced.
Angelo Borrelli, the head of Italy's Civil Protection Department, told reporters that 11 O of the confirmed cases were in Lombardy, with 21 in
Veneto with others in Emilia Romagna and Lazio. Officials reported a third death on Sunday, an elderly woman from the town of Crema suf-
fering from cancer. Italian officials say they are still trying to trace the source of the outbreak.
Universities in Milan have been closed and the city's mayor, Giuseppe Sala, said schools would also close their doors while the outbreak
continued. "As a precaution I think that the schools have to be closed in Milan. I will propose to the president of the region to enlarge the
precaution to the entire metropolitan city area. lt is just a precautton, we don't want to create parue," he said.
Meanwhile Giorgio Armanì's fashion show, scheduled to be held _______ (I) Milan _______ (lI) Sunday, went ahead but without any media
or buyers present. The show was livestreamed ________ (lII) its website, lnstagram and Facebook pages.

Questão 9
Volunteering is fun! 
One rainy afternoon I was sitting at home feeling so bored. Instead of feeling sorry for myself, I wanted to meet people and have new expe-
riences so I decided to start volunteering. I logged onto my computer and found a website where I could volunteer on afarm in France. 
Volunteering provides so many opportunities to have fun and share great stories. My time working on a farm was a new experience for me.
It was basically a free holiday as food and accommodation were provided. However, it was not your typical holiday as I had to look after fif-
teen horses and sleep at the top of a tower in a fourteenth century castle! I soon discovered that I was an awful farmer but it did not matter
because I made some great friends and also improved my French. 
However, you do not need to go abroad to volunteer. I have had plenty of adventures at home as volunteering can become a hobby. For
example, I love singing so I had a good laugh waving my arms in an attempt to conduct my local choir. I did slowly improve and it felt great
to conduct the choir in a concert. At university, I organized a concert for charity with my friends. It was really fun finding bands and raising
money for a cause we believe in. 
It is true that you feel good volunteering but there are also other advantages. I once volunteered as a steward at a charity sports event
where the organizers gave me cupcakes from an expensive London bakery to thank me for my services. I also volunteered in a charity
shop so I found loads of nice cheap clothes to update my wardrobe. 
While this is all fun, my favorite aspect of volunteering is creating and sharing stories. My terrible attempts at farming have given me hilari-
ous stories to tell! Talking to volunteers from different countries and backgrounds has also helped me learn more about the world. I feel
thankful to have had so much fun with many nice people thanks to volunteering.

TEXT
Now, according to an annual survey by the Babson Survey Research Group and the Online Learning Consortium, more than 6.3 million
students took at least one distance education course in the Fall 2016 semester (the most recent academic year for which data is available).
That’s 31.6 percent of all higher education enrollments, according to the study, and about half of them were taking all of their classes
online. 
Many of these students are traditional age. But for adult students (generally defined as those 25 and over, working fulltime jobs or with pa-
renting responsibilities) online education is a particularly attractive option. Citing several studies, Louis Soares, chief learning and innova-
tion officer for the American Council on Education, says that about a third of all adult students — roughly 13 million — are pursuing advan-
ced degrees online. 
“I think it has given adult students more opportunities,” Mr. Soares said. “If done correctly, online education can create a robust learning
experience.” 
Research has shown that students can learn as well online as they can in a face to face classroom, according to Jovita RossGordon, a pro-
fessor at Texas State University. 
“In terms of pros and cons, it offers great convenience and access for populations who might not otherwise have it,” said Professor Ross-
Gordon, an expert on adult education. “But a certain degree of self-direction is required. And it can be isolating for some folks.” 
The vast majority of colleges and universities in the United States offer at least some online classes, but there are still those who question
its legitimacy and also the quality of for-profit colleges whose curriculum is offered solely online. 
Walden University, where Mr. Haynes is earning his doctoral degree, is one such institution. He said that he researched the school through
the V.A. and other sources, and heard positive reports from a friend who was also pursuing his doctorate in business administration
at Walden, which Mr. Haynes learned was accredited by the Accreditation Council for Business Schools. 
For Manda Gibson, online education is the preferred mode of learning. “I love it,” said Ms. Gibson, 45, the mother of four, who works full-
time as an instructional designer at Simpson College in Indianola, Iowa. Ms. Gibson is pursuing her master’s in business administration on-
line with Colorado State University-Global Campus, and before that earned a bachelor of arts in management, taking mostly online classes,
at Simpson. 
“When I sit in a regular class, my mind wanders,” she says. “`Did I do this for my kids?’ ‘What am I making for dinner tonight?’ When I do
online, I can say, ‘this hour is my hour.’”
But she says, with the flexibility of online education comes responsibility. “You have to take it seriously,” she said. “Some people think online
classes are easier. I think it’s actually more work. Because you might have to spend more time with the content.” 
Time is a commodity that Mr. Haynes, like many adult learners, has little of. He and his wife — Sgt. Chelsea Aiko Haynes of the Army —
have six children, ranging in age from 1 to 17. He is also active with the Semper Fi Fund, a nonprofit organization that provides financial as-
sistance for catastrophically injured servicemen and women. But most days, after the children are off to school and his wife is at her job at
the Pentagon, he sits down in the living room with his MacBook Air and gets ready to learn. “I open the blinds to get some natural sun-
light in,” he said. “The TV’s off, the phone’s on vibrate. And I commit myself fully to my studies.” 
Here are some tips for success in onlineeducation for adult learners, from Jeremy Haynes and Manda Gibson, two students who have
flourished in this learning environment, and from George Haber, an adjunct professor at Vaughn College in Queens, and a veteran of over
25 years of teaching online. 
Set aside specific time periods when you can do required reading or writing and stick to the schedule, whether it’s an hour a night three
nights a week; Saturday or Sunday morning; or some combination. 
Get acquainted with your academic adviser from the start, as he or she is your lifeline for anything at the institution. Choose a subject for
your first online class that you’re interested in, if possible. You will be more likely to become engaged in the material and learn the
technology. 
Ask questions and reach out for help early. Don’t get frustrated if you don’t understand something; a quality online program will not only
have self-help tutorials, but also good student services to help with the details. 
Take part in any online discussions or forums. Your lack of participation will be easily noted by the instructor.
