I saw an accident happened on my way to home this afternoon. A girl was crossing the street on a zebra crossing while a young man drove a motorbike towards her. The young man saw the girl but tried to stop, but he drove too fast to stop. He hit the girl and fell off her motorbike. The girl was bad hurt and couldn't move. The young man didn't know how to do. I ran to a phone box nearby and dialed 110. Soon the police arrived. They send her to the nearest hospital at once.

Most people actually do not know how to do basic first aid on mild burns. It is normally taken for granted since most people think that soacking (浸泡) the burn with water is the way to go. 1.
Once the burn appears, you will surely feel much pain on the actual burned skin. Technically, this is the time to stay calm. 2. Finding a source of running water is recommended. However, if there is none, any source will do. If there is running water, simply place the burned area under it and allow it to soak the water for about 5 to 10 minutes. 3. If you have access to ice or a cold compress（冷敷布）, you can use that as well. You can place the ice or cold compress on the affected area and leave it there about 15 to 30 minutes. The ice will numb the pain and will also stop more injury on the skin.
After soaking in water or cooling the area with ice, remove from the water source and allow the moisture to dry naturally. You may also consider patting it down dry with a towel or napkin, however, this could damage the burnt skin even more. 4.
As soon as the area dries up completely, get a bandage or a strip of cloth. 5. This will protect that area from infection caused by outside dirt and dust getting into the open burn.
A. Call a doctor may as well help in most burn cases.
B. The thing is that treating a mild burn goes deeper than just soaking the affected part in water.
C. It is best to dry it naturally instead.
D. Wrap it around the burn to cover the open area of skin.
E. The truth is that soaking is the last thing to do to deal with mild burn.
F. The first thing you will need to do will be to find a clean water source.
G. This will relieve some of the pain, cool down the skin, and stop additional burning.
Now scientists believe that global warming affects hibernating animals, causing them to wake up earlier. While this may seem a little concern, it is in fact a serious environmental problem. The shortened hibernation period could actually lead to significant decreases in the population of several species.
Some of the first evidence of the problem came from Colorado, where researchers at the Rocky Mountain Biological Lab have been observing marmot (旱獭) hibernation behavior since the 1970s. In the early days of their studies, marmots generally hibernated several weeks into the month of May. Nowadays, however, temperatures in the area have risen by 2.5 degrees Fahrenheit, and the marmots wake up about a month earlier.
At least the marmots are still hibernating. Several other animals have not been hibernating at all recently. Brown bears in the Spanish Cantabrian Mountains did not hibernate last year. Chipmunks (花鼠) in the US and some snakes in Australia also skipped the hibernation period. The bears seem to have survived without losing many individuals. The chipmunks and snakes, however, were not so lucky. Many of the animals died of starvation during the winter.
The problem with animals waking up early, or skipping hibernation altogether, lies with the creatures' metabolism (新陈代谢). When the animals hibernate, their metabolism drops significantly. The animals' heart rate slows, and they require very little energy to live. When the animals awake in the spring, their metabolism returns to normal.
But while their metabolism may be as active as it was before hibernation, food sources aren't as available as they were before. A marmot may wake up when temperatures get warmer, thinking it's spring, but plants will not have got the amount of sun they need to grow. So until the plants grow, the marmots have no reliable food source.
Many scientists believe the problem will continue to get worse. For many biologists, that's a scary prospect. Terry Root, an animal expert at Stanford University, said, “I do think what we will be facing is the extinction of many species.”
1. What is the viewpoint of the writer?
A. Global warming will continue to get worse as time goes on.
B. Waking up early in spring may lead to the extinction of some animals.
C. Shortened hibernation will definitely decrease the population of animals.
D. Animals which do not hibernate die of starvation.
2.The writer sets the example of the marmot in order to .
A. indicate that global warming influences animals' hibernation
B. explain that the weather gets warmer and warmer now
C. show that the weather in the United States is quite different
D. say some animals do not hibernate now due to warm weather
3.Judging from recent observation, which of the following animals suffered the LEAST from shortened hibernation?
A. Brown bears.
B. Marmots.
C. Some snakes in Australia.
D. Chipmunks in the US.
4.Why can't marmots find enough food when they wake up?
A. Because there are too many marmots in the wild now.
B. Because more and more animal species skip hibernation now.
C. Because winter days end much earlier than before.
D. Because plants haven't received enough sunlight for spring growth.
