Unit 5 First aid阅读理解组块专练练速度(限时：30分钟).阅读理解AFirst aid is emergency care for a victim of sudden illness or injury until more skillful medical treatment is available. It may save a life. In many emergencies, first aid may prevent a victims condition from turning worse and provide relief from pain. First aid must be administered as quickly as possible. In the case of the critically injured, a few minutes can make a difference.Firstaid measures depend upon the victims needs and the providers 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, several principles of first aid can apply to all emergencies. The first step is to call for professional 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 the scene, asking people around or the injured persons family or friends about details of the injury or illness, any care that may have already been given, and preexisting conditions such as diabetes (糖尿病) or heart trouble. The victim should be checked for a medical card that describes special medical 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 determine whether lifethreatening conditions exist. One method for evaluating a victims condition is known as the acronym (首字母缩略词) ABC, which stands for：AAirway: Is it open and clear?BBreathing: Is the person breathing? Look, listen and feel for breathing.CCirculation: Is there a pulse? Is the person bleeding externally? Check skin color and temperature for additional indications of circulation problems.1.Before we offer first aid to a victim, it is very important for us to _.Amake sure what to do and what not to doBrefer to all kinds of handbooks on first aidCremove the medical card he/she may takeDtake him/her to a hospital at once解析：选A细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Knowing what not to do . knowing what to do.”可知A项正确。2When giving first aid to a victim, you should first of all _.Aremove him/her from the accident sceneBturn him/her overCcall for professional medical helpDexamine him/her carefully解析：选C细节理解题。根据第三段的第二句话“The first step is to call for professional medical help.”可知，首先是寻找专业的医疗帮助，故选C。3You may assess a victims condition by all the following EXCEPT _.Achecking whether there is a pulseBlooking, listening and feeling for breathingCmeasuring his/her blood pressureDexamining whether the airway is open and clear解析：选C细节理解题。根据文章最后一段的内容可知A、B、D三项均表述正确，而C项没有提及，故应选C。B(2019温州市高三第一次调研)I was selfish as a teenager. I usually spent my time thinking about myself and taking care of my own needs. I let my older brother do most of the work around the house until he left for college. I let my mom and dad worry about our bills and problems while I read books, played, and lost myself in my own imagination. This didnt change even when I went to college either. I studied hard but only to make my own life better. Even when I started to explore my faith, it was only to increase my own happiness.I married after graduation and decided to start a family. Of course, I had no idea what hard knocks reality had in store for my selfish soul. Soon I found myself unemployed, deeply in debt, and with a new baby on the way. I found out that life has little sympathy for spoiled people. In fact, all of the struggles I was going through were beating the selfishness slowly out of me.Still, I didnt give up on happiness. I knew that there must be a way to find it. I finally realized, however, that it had to include more than just my own needs, wants, and desires.The answer began to make itself clear one night shortly after my baby boy was born. I got a bottle and held him in my arms. As I was feeding him I looked down and saw his big, innocent, trusting eyes. I smiled and talked to him. Then he smiled and I could feel my heart growing, expanding with love. I felt such peace and joy. At that moment I had a hint of the truth: it is by growing our hearts with love that we find our happiness.Carolyn Arends wrote：“The more people you let into your heart, the bigger your heart gets. The more love you get, the more love you have to give. It just keeps growing.” So, keep loving, keep living and keep caring. Keep growing your heart today, tomorrow, and always.语篇解读：本文是一篇夹叙夹议文，主要讲述作者由一个自私的人成长为一个心中对他人有爱的人，也明白了“爱他人即幸福”的道理。4What do we know about the author from the first paragraph?AHe often helped his brother with housework.BHe studied hard for his family.CHe put his own needs above others.DHe was concerned about his family.解析：选C推理判断题。根据第一段中的“let my older brother do most of the work”“let my mom and dad worry about our bills and problems”“I studied hard but only to make my own life better.”和“it was only to increase my own happiness”的描述可推知，作者在青少年时期较为自私，行为处事总是只考虑自己，几乎不为家人考虑，即他把自己的需要放在别人的需要之上。故选C项。5What did the author realize after he suffered in life?ASpoiled people cant survive the hardship of life.BLife is cruel to spoiled people.CSpoiled people are never happy in life.DSelfishness is helpful.解析：选B细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Soon I found myself unemployed, deeply in debt, and with a new baby on the way.

Do you consider yourself fairly healthy?If you answered yes to all of these questions, you should be donating (捐赠) blood every two months. In my survey of my schoolmates, I found that only 50 percent of them have ever donated blood and that only 1 out of 13 of them donate regularly. The lack (缺少) of blood donors is a serious problem that requires immediate action.According to the American Red Cross Web pages, in the United States alone someone receives a blood transfusion (输血) once every three seconds. People who benefit from donations include cancer patients as well as babies. The need for blood never takes a vacation and neither should donors.Let me tell you about Brooke, a threeyearold girl with cancer. Brooke has spent about half of her life in the hospital receiving treatments. Her treatment will require about 500 units of blood in total, of which only 250 units have been replaced. She still needs the other half of the total amount to continue her treatment. If she doesnt receive this blood, she will not live to start kindergarten.Examples like Brookes are becoming all too common these days, with only 1 in 20 Americans donating blood and this number keeps dropping each year. These facts are extremely worrying considering that nearly half of us here will need blood sometime in our lives.You can now see the seriousness of the problem with the lack of blood donations. Fortunately, it is a problem that can be easily solved. Each and every one of you can be part of the solution. All you have to do is go to the nearest Red Cross and donate your blood.8How does the author explain the problem mentioned in Paragraph 2?ABy answering questions.BBy making comparisons.CBy presenting research findings.DBy describing his own experiences.解析：选C写作手法题。根据第二段中的“In my survey of my schoolmates, I found that .”可知，作者在第二段主要是通过陈述自己的研究发现来解释说明献血者少这一问题。9What can we learn from the American Red Cross Web pages?AThe suffering of patients.BThe strong need for blood.CThe efforts of the Red Cross.DThe benefits of taking vacations.解析：选B推理判断题。根据第三段中的“in the United States alone someone receives a blood transfusion (输血) once every three seconds”和“The need for blood never takes a vacation”不难看出市场对血液的强烈需求。10What is the purpose of the text?ATo persuade people to donate blood.BTo present some new medical results.CTo call on people to save a little girl.DTo explain the risks of blood donation.解析：选A写作目的题。通读全文可知，本文的目的是劝说人们义务献血。.阅读七选五Do you know that friendship is actually good for your health?
