1 / 100M people settle in towns
1亿人落户目标提前完成
China has accomplished in advance a plan to settle about 100 million people in towns and cities thanks to its fast-paced household registration reform. The proportion of people who have a "hukou," or household registration status, in towns and cities, had reached 44.38% by 2019, up from 35.93% in 2013, according to the Ministry of Public Security.

Related policies for rural dwellers and other permanent residents to get household registration status in urban areas have been relaxed.

3 / Covid-19 stamp on toilet paper

如果把2020年比作一个物件的话，那它肯定是卫生纸。不仅因为这一年过得糟糕，还因为疫情期间民众囤积卫生纸的报道将留在许多人的回忆里。

一些奥地利人似乎也这么想：10月23日，奥地利邮政局宣布将发行一款由三层厕纸制成的邮票。

4 / Smart sensors in the office
智能传感器隔离更容易
During the COVID-19 pandemic, if businesses are to get reluctant workers back into the office, finding ways to maintain social distancing will be key. An Israeli company thinks it can help, using smart sensors mounted on workplace ceilings.
疫情之下，如果企业想把不情愿复工的员工拉回办公室，找到保持社交距离的方法很关键。一家以色列公司认为在办公室天花板上安装智能传感器将有助于保持社交距离。
About the size of a smoke alarm, the sensors can record the exact number and location of people in buildings including offices, hotels and restaurants.
这种传感器和烟雾警报器差不多大，可以记录办公大楼、酒店和餐厅等建筑物内人员的精确数量和位置。
The sensors can also monitor social distancing by keeping track of how far apart people are, and whether they're traveling in one direction around a building. Workspace managers can set up alerts for when two people are closer than two meters for more than 30 seconds, for example.
传感器也可以追踪记录人与人之间的距离来监控社交隔离的情况，以及人们是否向大楼的同一个方向移动。举例来说，职场管理者可以设置警报，当两个人的间距小于两米，并保持这样的间距超过30秒时，警报就会响起。
