I suppose that having been brought up in...

 

I suppose that having been brought up in the countryside and close  to animals,it wasn’t remarkable(不平常的)when I decided  to become a vet(兽医).Luckily I was also good at all the necessary science subjects. So after the college entrance examination I found myself at a veterinary college,training to look after animals in all kinds of situations. I hoped that I would be able to work in the research field so that I could find cures for animal diseases.

    Much to my surprise,I found public health care was a very important aspect of my course. This is an area of animal medicine where a vet’s work has many things in common with the work of a doctor of human diseases. I particularly liked it because I recognized that the study of animal diseases can help human medicine. As we know,many infectious diseases come from animals—including SARS and bird flu.

Some of the infections have only been understood after carefully analytical work in labs by animal doctors. They helped identify the animal source for diseases such as SARS. They were also the first to identify various kinds of viruses. Sometimes vets are also able to suggest a cure for human illnesses. When I found this out I was determined to make public health medicine my chosen career.

After graduation,I applied for a job in public health. Soon I found myself concerned with the problem of bird flu. This is  an illness that attacks birds,but humans can catch the disease  if they are in close contact with infected birds. Though the job  is dangerous,it makes me proud that vets and other animal  disease researchers are in the front line helping to fight these  unknown human diseases

Ask someone what they have done to help the environment recently and they will almost certainly mention recycling.Recycling in the home is very important of course.However, being forced to recycle often means we already have more material than we need.We are dealing with the results of that over–consumption in the greenest way possible, but it would be far better if we did not need to bring so much material home in the first place.

    The total amount of packaging has increased by 12% between 1999 and 2005.It now makes up a third of a typical household’s waste in the UK.In many supermarkets nowadays food items are packaged twice with plastic and cardboard.

    Too much packaging is doing serious damage to the environment.The UK, for example, is running out of it for burying this unnecessary waste.If such packaging is burnt, it gives off greenhouse gases which go on to cause the greenhouse effect.Recycling helps, but the process itself uses energy.The solution is not to produce such items in the first place.Food waste is a serious problem, too.Too many supermarkets encourage customers to buy more than they need.However, few of them are coming round to the idea that this cannot continue, encouraging customers to reuse their plastic bags, for example.

     But this is not just about supermarkets.It is about all of us.We have learned to associate packaging with quality.We have learned to think that something unpackaged is of poor quality.This is especially true of food.But it is also applied to a wide range of consumer products, which often have far more packaging than necessary.

     There are signs of hope.As more of us recycle, we are beginning to realize just how much unnecessary materials are collected.We need to face the wastefulness of our consumer culture, but we have a mountain to climb.

1.What does the underlined phrase “that over-consumption” refer to?

    A.Using too much packaging.          B.Recycling too many wastes.

    C.Making more products than necessary. D.Having more material than is needed.

2.The author uses figures in Paragraph 2 to show ___________.

     A.the tendency of cutting household waste     B.the increase of packaging recycling

     C.the rapid growth of supermarkets             D.the fact of packaging overuse

3.According to the text, recycling ___________.

     A.helps control the greenhouse effect        B.means burning packaging for energy

     C.is the solution to gas shortage              D.leads to a waste of land

4.What can be inferred from Paragraph 4?

     A.Unpackaged products are of bad quality. B.Supermarkets care more about packaging.

     C.It is improper to judge quality by packaging.

    D.Other products are better packaged than food.

5.What can we learn from the last paragraph?

     A.Fighting wastefulness is difficult.     

B.Needless material is mostly recycled.

     C.People like collecting recyclable wastes.

    D.The author is proud of their consumer culture.

We all know how important human life is—it’s priceless. It doesn’t matter where you are from or what the color of your skins is—all people are human beings. Firstly, we can tell you that the lives of your relatives could depend on your ability to give first aid. If you think highly of human’s life, this website is for you! Here you can find information about first aid.

The very first thing that you should do when you see an accident is to evaluate the situation and prevent further dangerous incidents. First of all, you have to recognize what has happened and what the dangers to rescuers and victims are. Think about how to take care of the victims.

Helping usually takes place in very difficult conditions and injuries can be very bad. Therefore, you cannot be too afraid of making mistakes to help. Sometimes you have to face the fact that regardless of your actions and your efforts the victim’s condition might not improve—he or she could even die. In some cases even professional medical aid may not succeed. If you have done everything you think you should do, you shouldn’t feel guilty.

Do not expose yourself to danger. Giving first aid can be dangerous. While trying to help a victim, do not forget about your own safety. If something happens to you, you won’t be able to help anyone.

Call for help after you find out the condition of a victim. But remember if a victim faints due to breathing failure caused by drowning, choking or poisoning, you should first take actions that help to bring back the heart beat and breathing. While calling, talk shortly but clearly. Always provide the following information: the location of the accident, the kind of accident, the number of the injured and your full name and phone number and so on.

1.The passage is probably taken from _________.

  A. a newspaper       B. the Internet             C. a textbook       D. a guide book

2.The underlined word “ evaluate” in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to _______.

  A. leave                      B. protect                      C. avoid                 D. judge

3. What’s the main idea of Paragraph 3?

  A. You should learn some professional knowledge about first aid.

  B. You shouldn’t feel guilty if you don’t know about first aid.

  C. Try your best to give first aid and don’t be afraid of making mistakes

  D. Don’t make mistakes when you are giving first aid.

4.The author thinks that helping a victim can be ____________.

A. risky                       B. shocking           C. exciting            D. boring
