提分练三十九　UNIT 11(A组) 阅读理解 A　(原创)　体裁:说明文　主题语境:安全常识和自我防护　难度:★★☆☆☆ On the night of Oct. 29, tens of thousands of South Koreans went out to celebrate Halloween. Unfortunately, this event quickly turned into one of the country’s worst disasters. A crowd of mostly young people started to crowd into a narrow alley (小巷) until it was overcrowded. They reported that it was difficult to even breathe. Up till Nov. 13, 158 people had died. So, how can we learn a lesson from this accident and protect ourselves from similar future events? 1. Make a note in your head of all the exits for the area you are in. 2. When you start to feel uncomfortable in the crowd, this is the time to start thinking of leaving. 3. Stay on your feet. 4.

Stick together—if you see someone who needs help, reach out to them. 7. Try to stay calm to control your breathing.

Did you know that in a crowd with a density of more than six people per square meter, people lose control over the movement of their own bodies as the whole crowd can act like water? That means pressure waves can travel through it and cause the whole group to fall at once. Crowd management is necessary when it comes to big public events. 【语篇解读】　本文通过韩国踩踏事件,说明了在踩踏中幸存的方法。 1.Which is the first thing to do if you are in a crowd? A. Calmly controlling breathing. B.
