Burns

Burns from fire or other sources of heat are different from mild(轻微的)to life threatening. Some burns can be treated at home. While others need emergency(紧急的)medical care.

What to do if you get burned

·First, check and decide if you can take care of the burn yourself. Go to the hospital immediately if the burn is serious.

·If you can’t get to a hospital right away or must wait for an ambulance, follow these steps;

Remove clothing from the burned area. Do not remove clothing that is stuck to the skin and don’t break any blisters(水泡).

Run cool (not cold)water over the burn until the pain becomes lighter. Do not put butter,Oil, or ice on burns.

Lightly apply a bandage(绷带)over the burn.

Remove jewelry that’s close to the burn.

Seek emergency medical care if:

The burn is serious.

The burned area is large (cover the area with a clean, soft cloth or towel).

The burn comes from a fire, electrical wire or chemicals.

The burn looks infected(被感染的).

Think prevention!

Be careful when using candles, heaters, and curling irons. Do not allow children to play in the kitchen while someone is cooking. Children can easily get burned in kitchens.

Dear Disney,

Last weekend, the four members of my family spent a wonderful holiday at the magic Kingdom—Disneyland. And one event made our visit seem truly magical.

We got to the front of the line at Space Mountain, only to find out that our little daughter Gloria couldn’t take her ice-cream on the ride We were so excited that we all forgot ice-cream was not allowed on the ride.

Gloria broke into tears and we all had no idea what to do. Then Murphy, one of the staff (员工) members, came over. She bent down and told Gloria that she would hold the ice-cream for her and give it to her when she finished the ride. Gloria said, “Promise?” Then she gave Murphy her ice-cream, and she completely enjoyed the ride. Sure enough, as we walked out the exit, there was Gloria’s new friend with “her” ice-cream. Now you and I both know what happened, because we know that an ice-cream won’t last twenty minutes on a summer afternoon in Florida. Murphy knew what time we would get off the ride; she went to the nearest shop and bought a brand-new ice-cream thirty seconds before we walked out of the exit. Gloria said, “Thank you,” but I’m sure she thought it was the same ice-cream.

We know that someone tried hard to make our visit special. Thanks so much for going above and beyond!

Your fan,

Carmen Rivera

Fights at school sometimes happen. But how can you keep away from a fight? Here’s something you can do.

Be calm(冷静). Sometimes, you feel so angry that you really want to teach somebody a lesson. But being angry can't solve problems. Neither can a fight. Instead, it may bring you more problems. In the school, everyone involved(卷入) in a fight will be punished, no matter who started it. There are winners in a fight.

Shout loudly. If you know someone is coming up behind you to attack, turn toward the person with your hands up in front of your body and loudly say “stop” before walking away. Loud voice can usually make the attacker calm down. If the person doesn’t stop, cry for help by calling out the name of a teacher whose office is nearby.

____ Your friend may ask you to join in a fight. Learn to say no. Helping him fight is not really helpful to him. If you really want to give him a hand, try to ask him to give it up. Also, you can tell him if he gets involved in a fight, he may get hurt and be punished. Then, try to learn why he wants a fight and help him find a right way to deal with the problem.

1.The underlined word “attack” in Paragraph 3 means “____” in Chinese.

A. 拥抱 B. 攻击 C. 阻止 D. 吸引

2.Which of the following sentences can be put in the ____?
