题目内容
【题目】When your pet has an emergency, first aid is not a substitute for veterinary treatment. However, before you are able to get your pet to a veterinarian(兽医), knowing some basic first aid can help.
Bite Wounds
Approach the pet carefully to avoid getting bitten. Wear a mask for the animal and then check the wound. Clean the wound with large amounts of saline(盐水). If these are not available, then regular water may be used. Wrap large open wounds to keep them clean.
Bleeding
Apply firm, direct pressure over the bleeding area until the bleeding stops. Hold the pressure for at least 10 minutes. Avoid bandages that cut off circulation.
__________
Check to see if the animal is choking on a foreign object. If an animal is not breathing, place it on a firm surface with its left side up. Check for a heartbeat. If you hear a heartbeat but not breathing, close the animal’s mouth and breathe directly into its nose—not the mouth—until the chest expands. Repeat 12 to 15 times per minute.
Burns
Wash the burn immediately with large amounts of cool, running water. Apply an ice pack for 15—20 minutes. Do not place an ice pack directly on the skin. Wrap the pack in a light towel or other cover. If the animal has large quantities of dry chemicals on it skin, brush them off. Water may activate some dry chemicals.
Fractures (骨折)
Symptoms include pain, inability to use a limb (腿). Wear a mask for the pet and look for bleeding. If you can control bleeding without causing more injury, then do so. Watch for signs of shock. Don’t try to set the fractures by pulling the limb. Transport the pet to the veterinarian immediately, supporting the injured part as best as you can.

试题分析:当你的宠物有一个紧急情况,急救是一个兽医治疗的替代品。然而,这里这些方法可以代替兽医及时帮助到你的宠物。
【1】B考查推理判断。根据When your pet has an emergency, first aid is not a substitute for veterinary treatment可知当你的宠物有一个紧急情况,急救是不是一个兽医治疗的替代品,所以substitute意思是替代品,故选B。
【2】B考查推理判断。根据下文宠物呼吸停止的解救方法可知小标题是呼吸停止,故选B。
【3】D考查细节理解。If the animal has large quantities of dry chemicals on it skin, brush them off. Water may activate some dry chemicals.可知如果动物在它的皮肤上有大量的干化学物质,就把它们刷掉。因为水可以激活一些干燥的化学物质。故选D。
