Unit5 FIRST AID Using Language
Read the article and then put A-E in the correct places in the test. ChenWei, a high school student in Beijing, had his dinner interrupted when he heard someone screaming from another table. A fellow diner at the restaurant, ZhangTao, was choking on some steak. He was now holding his throat with his face turning red, while his desperate friends were slapping him on the back.北京高中生陈伟在吃晚餐,这时另一桌突然传来客人的尖叫声。原来餐馆里一个叫张涛的人被牛排噎住了。只见他按着喉咙,满脸通红,他的几个朋友正拼命拍打他的背部。 Chen wasted no time. He got up and ran to Zhang's table at once. With the help of Zhang's friends, he was able to help Zhang to his feet. Then, standing behind Zhang, Chen did the Heimlich manoeuvre. The food was instantly forced out, and Zhang began to breathe again. Ten minutes later, an ambulance arrived. The doctors checked Zhang and made sure that he was fine.They suggested he eat more slowly and take smaller bites before they left.陈伟毫不迟疑。他立刻起身,跑到张涛桌前。在张涛朋友们的帮助下,陈伟扶着他站了起来。接着,陈伟站在张涛的背后,实施海姆立克急救法。食物瞬间被排出,张涛又能开始呼吸了。十分钟后,救护车赶到。医生们为张涛做了检査,确保他没有大碍。离开前,医生建议他吃饭要细嚼慢咽,小口进食。 Choking victims usually have only about four minutes before they collapse and sometimes die, leaving no time for an ambulance to arrive. To solve this problem, in 1974, an American doctor, Henry Heimlich, created the Heimlich manoeuvre, saving thousands of lives around the world. Doing the Heimlich manoeuvre is quick practical, and easy. It is so easy, in fact, that almost anyone can learn how.噎食者通常大约四分钟后就会瘫倒在地,有时甚至死亡,等不到救护车的到来。为解决这一问题,1974年美国医生亨利・海姆立克发明了海姆立克急救法,挽救了全世界成千上万人的生命。海姆立克急救法简便、实用、见效快。事实上,它非常容易操作,几乎所有人都能学会。 If you see someone choking, first call the emergency services. Then, make sure the victim is really choking: A choking person cannot speak. Slapping the victim’s back will often force out the obstruction. If this does not work, you can perform the Heimlich manoeuvre by standing behind him and wrapping your arms around his waist. Make a fist with one hand and place it in the upper part of his stomach. Grabbing your fist with your other hand tightly, push up and into his stomach in one motion. Continue doing this until the obstruction is forced out.如果你发现有人被噎住,首先拨打急救电适。然后,确定此人确实是被噎住了:人被噎时是无法说话的。拍打噎食者的背部通常可以将异物排出。如果不奏效,那么你可以实施海姆立克急救法。具体做法是:站在此人身后,用双臂环抱其腰部。只手握拳,置于其上腹部,另一只手紧紧握住拳头,快速用力向上在里挤压。重复上述动作,直至异物排出。Doingthe Heimlich manoeuvre on a small child is not recommended, as you may hurt him. Instead, lay the child face down on your lap with the head lower than the rest of his body, and then give firm slaps to his upper back until he can breathe again不建议对小孩实施海姆立克急救法,因为你可能会伤到他/她。相反,应将孩子脸朝下放在大腿上,使其头部低于身体其他部位,然后用力拍打其上背部,直至他/她恢复呼吸。 With choking victims, every minute counts. You cannot just stand by and do nothing. Luckily, Chen had learnt how to give first aid in school. Seeing Zhang choking, he remained calm and reacted immediately. Chen later said about the incident, "How could I justify sitting there and doing nothing? We are all humans and we all have a responsibility to look after one another's welfare”救助噎食者,分秒必争。不要袖手旁观。幸运的是,陈伟在学校学过急救方法。看到张涛噎住,他保持冷静,且反应迅速。后来,陈伟谈起此事时说道:“我有什么理由坐在那儿袖手旁观呢?大家都是人,我们都有责任关心彼此的幸福。”A Choking victims usually have only about four minutes before they collapse and something dieB If you see someone choking, first call the emergency servicesD With choking victims,every minutes countsE Doing the Heimlich manoeuvre on a small child is not recommended
