[对应学生用书P347] Ⅰ.阅读理解 A (2023·武汉模拟)As 16­year­old Torri'ell Norwood drove through Florida, last February, the laughter and chatter from the four teenage girls inside her car quickly gave way to screams. As they approached an intersection, another car crashed them, sending their car sailing into the yard of a nearby home, coming to a stop only when it crashed into a tree. As smoke rose from the car, a bystander shouted, “It's about to blow up! Get out” Shaken but OK, Norwood crawled out through the window as the driver's side door couldn't be opened. Along with two of her friends, who'd also managed to free themselves, she ran for her life. But halfway down the street, she realized that her best friend, Simmons, wasn't with them. Norwood ran back and found Simmons unconscious in the back seat. She threw open the back door and pulled her friend out. She dragged Simmons a few feet to safety and laid her on the ground. After checking her pulse and found there was no sign of life, she started CPR. Had the accident happened a few weeks earlier, she might not have known what to do. But just the day before, Norwood, who wanted to pursue a career in medicine, had earned her CPR certificate by learning on her own. Kneeling on the lawn and looking down at her dying friend, Norwood knew she had precious little time to practice what she'd learned. She started pumping Simmons's chest with her interlocked fingers and breathing into her friend's mouth in the hope of filling her lungs with the kiss of life.After quite a while, Simmons began coughing and taking quick deep breaths for air. The CPR had worked! Soon，the ambulance arrived and rushed Simmons to the hospital. And then she heard how her best friend had saved her life. “I am not shocked，” Simmons told others. “She will always help any way she can.” [解题导语]　本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了Torri'ell Norwood开车时遭遇车祸，车里有三人顺利逃生。当发现好朋友Simmons还在车上时，Norwood返回车内救出了昏迷的她，并对她做心肺复苏术。Simmons最终得救了。 1．What caused the car crash?
