According to EMTP and Stat Gear CEO Avi Goldstein, every driver should be taught how to get out of a car when it becomes submerged in water.
“Accidents and natural disasters often occur so quickly that it’s essential for drivers to be prepared,” says Goldstein. “In this case, preparation is simply knowing what should be done before it happens.”
Goldstein offers the following lifesaving tips:
1.Try to stay calm. The worst thing you can do is become overly agitated and panicked.
2. Don’t try to open the door. This will cause the car fill with water very quickly.
3. Unfasten your seat belt or cut it if it’s jammed.
4. Help free anyone else in the car.
5. Use a window punch — preferably spring-loaded. It’s nearly impossible to break a car window with your hands or feet.
6. Exit through the broken window and swim up to safety.
“Every car should be equipped with a window punch and seat belt cutter, but they are usually completely forgotten by car owners,” says Goldstein. For example, the T3 Tactical Auto Rescue Tool from Stat Gear features a 440c stainless steel serrated knife, seat belt cutter, spring-loaded window punch and LED light.
Goldstein asserts that the T3 or another similar tool should always be within arms length of a driver. “If for any reason a driver becomes pinned into his or her seat, emergency tools need to be within reach--otherwise they are useless. They will do you no good in your trunk or backseat.” The following is a quick demonstration on how to escape a sinking car with a baby on board.
(1)What is the meaning of the underlined word in paragraph 1?
A.washed
B.cleaned
C.stuck
D.discovered
(2)According to the passage, where should you put a window punch and a seat belt cutter in your car?
A.Near the driver’s seat.
B.In the trunk.
C.In the back seat.
D.Under the engine.
(3)What will be following the passage?
A.How to save a baby in a car.
B.How to help a baby escape from a car.
C.How to escape from a sinking car with a baby.
D.How to avoid sinking a car with a baby.

(2)A推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“If for anyreason a driver becomes pinned into his or her seat, emergency tools need to bewithin reach--otherwise they are useless.如果因为任何理由一个司机被困在他或她的座位上,紧急工具需要伸手够到,否则它们是没用的。故选A。
(3)C推理判断题。根据最后一句The followingis a quick demonstration on how to escape a sinking car with a baby on board. 以下是一个快速演示怎样带着一个婴儿从一个下沉的汽车里逃脱。从这里可以推出C项符合语境。
