>Theory test for flying drone
英国推无人机考试制度
Drone pilots in the UK will soon have to take a driving theory-style test and get a license to prove they can fly the gadgets "safely and legally".
在英国，操作无人机的人很快将必须参加一项有关无人机使用的理论考试，考试合格者将获得驾照，以证明其能"安全合法"地操作无人机。
If pilots fly a drone after failing the online multiple-choice quiz, they could face a fine of up to ￡1,000.
没有通过线上选择题测试的人操作无人机将面临高达1000英镑的罚款。
Launched by the Civil Aviation Authority, the scheme comes as figures reveal a "sky-tipping" crisis that has seen hundreds of drones crash-landing in trees, parks, gardens, rivers and beaches.
这项考试由英国民用航空管理局组织，数据显示，英国每年因无人机坠落造成的事故达到数百起，地点包括树上、公园、花园、河流和海滩。
The new regulations, which become law on Nov 30, apply to drones or model aircraft weighing between 250g and 20kg.
新规将于11月30日起生效，适用于重量在250克至20千克之间的无人机或飞机模型。
It could lead to children having to do an exam before flying drones they've been given for Christmas.
这意味着，在圣诞节收到无人机做礼物的孩子都需要通过考试才能试飞无人机。

>Grave experience offered
荷兰大学开设'坟墓'体验
Radboud University in the Dutch town of Nijmegen offers a novel solution for those struggling from everyday challenges of student life and anxious uncertainty about the future - a "purification grave".
位于荷兰奈梅亨的奈梅亨大学为那些每日疲于应对学习和生活的挑战、对未来感到焦虑不安的学生提供了一个新奇的项目——"净化坟墓"。
The "purification grave" is - quite traditionally - an open hole in the ground in the garden behind the student church.
"净化坟墓"非常传统，就是在学生教堂后面的花园地上挖的坑。
It is equipped with a yoga mat and a pillow - basic necessities to make yourself comfortable and meditate: below you there's earth, above - the sky.
"坟墓"内配有一个瑜伽垫和一个枕头，这是让学生感到舒适并进行冥想的基本必需品：地为床，天为席。
The grave experience can be booked for a minimum of 30 minutes and up to three hours - students decide for themselves how long they want it to last.
学生需提前预定这一坟墓体验项目，体验时长视个人情况从30分钟到3个小时不等。
And since the authors are offering something real, not a 21st century app-imitation version, telephones and books are prohibited during the session.
由于这是真实的坟墓体验，而不是21世纪的应用模仿版本，所以体验期间禁止使用电话和阅读书籍。
The author of the idea John Hacking, who works at the student chapel, thinks that the creation would help the youth appreciate the beauty of life and realize its transience.
项目的发起人、在该校学生教堂工作的约翰•哈金认为，这一创新项目能帮助年轻人欣赏生活的美，认识到生命转瞬即逝。
