> Page Passage 1 阅读短文， 根据短文内容选择一个最佳答案。 Kate left home earlier than usual because she had agreed to meet three friends for breakfast before going to school this Friday. As they made their way through the street, they heard someone shouting, “ Call an ambulance! Call an ambulance! ” They saw a young woman standing at the door of a small shop close to the restaurant they were going to. When they looked inside, they found an old man lying still on the floor. While Kate蒺s friends telephoned 911 to ask for help, she went up to the man to see what was wrong. Just then, the first aid lessons that had been taught at school five years before came to her. She knew she needed to check for a pulse first. She felt his neck and his arm — nothing.

She started to do as she had learnt. Kate had kept working for 11 minutes until the ambulance came. Kate蒺s working was good enough to stop the heart attack from taking the old man. “ Now I蒺m still amazed at what I was able to do and the way everything just fell into place, ” says Kate. “ It was the first time I performed first aid, but I could picture my lessons and that served as a guide. ” Unit10 Unit10 i 91 > Page Newwords ambulance n. 救护车 still adj. 静止的 first aid lesson 急救课程 pulse n. 脉 搏 lower v. 低下 chest n. 胸部 perform first aid 实施急救 picture v. 忆起 （ ） 1.
