     First aid is emergency care for a victim(受害人) of sudden illness or injury until more skillful medical
treatment is available. It may save a life or improve certain important signs including pulse, temperature,
clear airway (气道), and breathing.  In minor emergencies, first aid may prevent a victim's condition from
turning worse and provide relief from pain. First aid must be done as quickly as possible.  In the case of
the seriously injured, a  few minutes can make the difference between complete recovery and loss of life.
    First-aid measures depend upon a victim's needs and the provider's level of knowledge and skill.
Knowing what not to do in an emergency is as important as knowing what to do.Improperly moving a
person with a neck injury, for example, can lead to permanent spinal(脊柱的 ) injury  and  paralysis
(瘫痪) .
    Despite the variety of injuries possible, several rules of first aid apply to all emergencies.  The first step
is to call for expert medical help. The victim, if conscious, should be reassured that medical aid has been
requested, and asked for permission to provide any first aid.  Next,  assess (评估) the scene, asking
other people or the injured person's family or friends about details of the injury or illness, any care that
may have already been given, and pre-existing conditions such as diabetes(糖尿病) or heart trouble. The
victim should be checked for a medical card that describes special conditions. Unless the accident scene
becomes unsafe or the victim may suffer further injury, do not move the victim.
      First aid requires rapid assessment of victims to decide whether life-threatening conditions exist. One
method for accessing a victim's condition is known by the acronym(首字母缩写词) ABC, which stands
for:
      A-Airway: Is it open and clear?
     B-Breathing: Is the person breathing? Look,listen, and feel for breathing.
     C-Circulation: Is there a pulse? Is the person bleeding externally? Check skin color and temperature
for additional indications of circulation problems.

1. First aid may bring about all the following results EXCEPT     .

A. saving a victim's life
B. preventing a victim's condition from getting worse
C. relieving a victim from pain
D. helping a person avoid sudden illness or injury

2. Before we offer first aid to a victim, it is very important for us       .

A. to make sure what to do and what not to do
B. to refer to all kinds of handbooks on first aid
C. to remove the ring or bracelet he/she may be wearing
D. to take him/her to a hospital at once

3. In giving first aid to a victim,  you should first of all       .

A. remove his/her from the accident scene
B. turn him/her over
C. call for professional medical help
D. examine him/her carefully

4. You may assess (评价) a victim's condition by all the following EXCEPT       .

A. checking whether there is a pulse
B. looking, listening and feeling for breathing
C. replacing his/her medical card
D. examining whether the airway is open and clear

     Two friends have an argument that bleaks up their friendship forever, even though neither one can
remember how the whole thing got started. Such sad events happen over and over in high schools
across the country. In fact, according to an official report on youth violence, "In our country today, the
greatest threat to the lives of children and adolescents is not disease or starvation or abandonment, but
the terrible reality of violence". Given that this is the case, why aren't students taught to manage conflict
the way they are taught to solve math problems, drive cars, or stay physically fit?
      First of all, students need to realize that conflict is unavoidable. A report on violence among middle
school and high school students indicates that most violent incidents between students begin with a
relatively minor insult (侮辱). For example, a fight could start over the fact that one student eats a peanut
butter sandwich each lunchtime. Laughter over the sandwich can lead to insults, which in turn can lead to
violence. The problem isn't in the sandwich, but in the way students deal with the conflict.
     Once students recognize that conflict is unavoidable, they can practice the golden rule of conflict
resolution (解决) stay calm. Once the student feels calmer, he or she should choose words that will calm
the other person down as well. Rude words, name-calling, and accusation only add fuel to the emotional
fir On the other hand, soft words spoken at a normal sound level can put out the fire before it explodes
out of control.
     After both sides have calmed down, they can use another key strategyfor conflict resolution; listening.
Listening allows the two sides to understand each other. One person should describe his or her side, and
the other person should listen without interrupting. Afterward, the listener can ask non-threatening
questions to clarify the speaker's position. Then the two people should change roles.
     Finally, students need f. consider what they are hearing. This doesn't mean trying to figure out what's
wrong with the other person. It means understanding what the real issue is and what both sides are trying
to accomplish. For example, a shouting match over a peanut butter sandwich might happen because one
person thinks the other person is unwilling to try new things. Students need to ask themselves questions
such as these: How did this start? What do I really want? What am I afraid off As the issue becomes
clearer, the conflict often simply becomes smaller. Even if it doesn't, careful thought helps both sides
figure out a mutual solution.
     There will always be conflict in schools, but that doesn't mean there needs to be violence. After
students in Atlanta started a conflict resolution program, according to Educators for Social Responsibility, "64 percent of the teachers reported less physical violence in the classroom; 75 percent of the teachers
reported an increase in student cooperation; and 92 percent of the students felt better about themselves".
Learning to resolve conflicts can help students deal with friends,. teachers. parents, bosses, and coworkers. In that way, conflict resolution is a basic life skill that should be taught in schools across the country.
1. This article is mainly about _____.
A. the lives of school children
B. the cause of arguments in schools
C. how to analyze youth violence
D. how to deal with school conflicts
2. From Paragraph 2 we can learn that________.
A. violence is more likely to occur at lunchtime
B. a small conflict can lead to violence
C. students tend to lose their temper easily
D. the eating habit of a student is often the cause of a fight
3.Why do students need to ask themselves the questions stated in Paragraph 5?
A. To find out who to blame.
B. To get ready to buy new things.
C. To make clear what the real issue is.
D. To figure out how to stop the shouting match.
4. After the conflict resolution program was started in Atlanta, it was found that______.
A. there was a decrease in classroom violence
B. there was less student cooperation in the classroom
C. more teachers fell better about themselves in schools
D. the teacher-student relationship greatly improved
5.The writer's purpose for writing this article is to_______.
A. complain about problems in school education
B. teach students different strategies for school life

阅读理解。
     Monarch butterflies (黑脉金斑蝶) are a common summer sight in the northern United States and Canada.
These large orange and black insects (昆虫) brighten parks and gardens as they fly lightly among the flowers.
What makes monarchs particularly interesting is that they migrate (迁飞)-all the way to California or Mexico
and back. They are thought to be the only insect that does this.
     Every year in the late summer monarchs begin their journey to the south. Those heading for Mexico go first
for the Louisiana-Mississippi area, then fly across the Gulf of Mexico into Texas. Once in Mexico, they settle
themselves in one of about fifteen places in a mountain forest filled with fir trees. Each place provides a winter
home for millions of monarchs. The butterflies are so many that they often cover entire trees. When spring
comes, they begin their long journey north.
     The question is often asked whether every butterfly makes the round-trip journey every year. And the answer
is no. The average monarch lives about nine months. So one flying north might lay eggs in Louisiana and then
die. The eggs of that generation may be found in Kentucky; the eggs of the next generation may end up in
Wisconsin or Michigan. The last generation of the season, about the fourth, will make their way back to Mexico
and restart the journey.
     Scientists learn about monarchs' migration by catching and making marks on the insects. By recatching a
monarch with such a mark and noticing where it came from, the next scientist can get to know things like the
butterfly's age and its routing (路线).
1. One of the places where monarchs spend the winter is _____.
[     ]
A. the Gulf of Mexico
B. an area in Mississippi
C. a forest in Mexico
D. a plain in Texas
2. The routing of monarchs' migration can be learned _____.
[     ]
A. by collecting their eggs in the mountains
B. by examining the marks made on them
C. by comparing their different ages
D. by counting the dead ones in the forests
3. What is the subject discussed in the passage?
[     ]
A. Life and death of monarchs.
B. Scientists' interest in monarchs.
C. Winter home of monarchs.
D. Migration of monarchs.

     An evergreen tree is a Christmas tradition in many American homes. The tree is usually a pine or fir
dressed with lights and other colorful decorations.
     Families might buy a cut tree or go to a tree farm and cut one down themselves. Some people bring a
live tree in a pot into their home for the holidays and then put it back outdoors. Some people rent a
Christmas tree. Companies might bring the same live tree to the same family year after year. Or the tree
might get planted in a park or someplace else where it could help the environment.
     There are some trees that can be reused year after year because they are made of plastic or metal. Or,
instead of a tree, some people have a small, sweet-smelling rosemary (迷迭香) plant, cut to look like a
little Christmas tree.

native to Mexico. They can be white or pink, but most are bright red. They are named after the first

States. Babies or pets that chew on poinsettias might get sick. But experts say the plant is not as poisonous as some people think.
     Like millions of other houses, the home of America's first president is decorated for Christmas. George Washington's Mount Vernon Estate is in Virginia.
