Question

Seventeen-year-old Rivertown teenager, John Janson, was honoured at the Lifesaver Awards last night for carrying out lifesaving first aid on his neighbour after a shocking knife    36   .

     John was presented with his award at a ceremony which recognized the    37    of the ten people who have saved the life of others.

  John had been studying in his room when he heard  38  . When he and his father rushed outside, they    39    that Anne Slade, mother of three, had been stabbed（刺）   40    with a knife by her ex-boyfriend（前男友）. The man ran from the  41   and left Ms Slade lying in her front garden    42    very heavily. Her hands had almost been cut off.

        It was John’s quick    43    and knowledge of first aid that saved Ms Slade’s life. He immediately asked a number of the    44    people for bandages（绷带）, but when nobody could put their hands on anything, his father got some tea towels（毛巾）and    45    from their house. John used these to dress the most severe    46    to Ms Slade’s hands. He slowed the bleeding by applying pressure to the wounds until the    47    and ambulance arrived.

        “I’m    48    of what I did but I was just doing what I had been    49   ,” John said.

John had taken part in the Young Lifesaver Scheme at his high school. When   50   John, Mr Alan Southerton, Director of the Young Lifesaver Scheme, said, “   51  is no doubt that John’s quick thinking and the first aid52    that he had learned at school saved Ms Slade’s life. It shows that a simple knowledge of the first aid can make a real   53   .”

        John and the nine other lifesavers also attended a    54    reception yesterday hosted by the Prime Minister before    55    their awards last night.
