Day 5
阅读下面材料,掌握其大意,然后从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳答案。
During Winter Give ‘Falls the Slip’

Winter related slips and falls are generally related to icy conditions.
Watch out for and avoid black ice (透明薄冰). Often this occurs when temperatures rise above freezing during the day and drop below freezing at night.
Do not get caught by SURPRISE – monitor the weather.

Campus safety is everyone’s responsibility; play your part.

During storms UW’s first priority is main road routes to ensure emergency access and then primary walkways.
Attention to some walkways and parking lots may not be possible until at least 24 hours after a storm has subsided.
Keep clear of snow removal equipment for your safety and to expedite their response to storm conditions.

Think Prevention – If you see an icy condition do not hesitate to use salt/sand on the walkways from the bins located throughout the campus.
* Wear winter footwear, even for short walks.
* When walking on ice or snow take short steps to keep your centre of balance under you.

Your Environment
* Use extra care when getting in and out of vehicles; parking lots are particularly difficult to maintain between parked vehicles.
* Use handrails on steps/ramps.
* Avoid shortcuts. Use salted/sanded and well-lit walkways.
* Delay use of recently plowed areas as they can be slippery until the salt/sand has taken effect.

Slips and Falls Hurt Us All
During and following winter storms review any access concerns with your supervisor.

Reporting Procedures
* Report unsafe conditions, such as ice and snow to Plant Operations at ext. 33793 (24 hr service). Try to give the exact location of the area or some landmarks.
* Report slips and falls to your supervisor for completion of UW Injury/Incident Report (www.safetyoffice.uwaterloo.ca). Send report to the Safety Office (ext. 33587)
