You and your friend are playing in the classroom. Suddenly, your friend’s nose starts to bleed (流血). What would you do? Would you do something to help your friend? In daily life, we run into emergencies now and then. Nosebleeds are just one kind of emergency. But if you learn some basic first aid skills, you can help people during emergencies. The second Saturday of September is World First Aid Day. First aid, as its name tells us, means the first steps you can take to care for someone who gets hurt. It includes keeping him safe and staying calm. It also includes getting help by telling other people or calling 120. Every year in China, about 3.2 million people die in emergencies. That’s an average (平均数) of six people per minute. Doctors say that the first 10 minutes after an accident can make a difference between life and death. This is why it’s important for us to learn first aid skills. CPR (心肺复苏) is one of the most useful first aid skills. It can help people who suffer cardiac arrest (心搏停止).

But now, the big animal is calling for our help. There were once eight kinds of tigers in the world, but three died out during last century. In the past 70 years, the number of the Siberian tigers has gone from as many as 300 to somewhere between 18 and 22. The World Wildlife Fund started a programme. It is about to put an end to tiger poaching (非法狩猎) and save wild tigers. China, together with 12 other countries, has joined in. The aim is to double the number of wild tigers in the next ten years. According to research by Chinese officers and WWF, the Siberian tiger is already one of the world’s most endangered animals (濒危动物). “If the government doesn’t do anything, it’s quite possible that there will be no more Siberian tigers in China in 10 to 20 years.” said Zhu Chunguan, director at WWF’s Beijing office. Wild animals such as deer and wild boars are tigers’ main food. The poaching of these animals is the greatest danger to tigers. Traps (陷阱) are also a danger. “Volunteers from WWF remove traps every year, but we cannot clear all the traps ourselves,” Zhu said.

But now, the big animal is calling for our help. There were once eight kinds of tigers in the world, but three died out during last century. In the past 70 years, the number of the Siberian tigers has gone from as many as 300 to somewhere between 18 and 22. The World Wildlife Fund started a programme. It is about to put an end to tiger poaching (非法狩猎) and save wild tigers. China, together with 12 other countries, has joined in. The aim is to double the number of wild tigers in the next ten years. According to research by Chinese officers and WWF, the Siberian tiger is already one of the world’s most endangered animals (濒危动物). “If the government doesn’t do anything, it’s quite possible that there will be no more Siberian tigers in China in 10 to 20 years.” said Zhu Chunguan, director at WWF’s Beijing office. Wild animals such as deer and wild boars are tigers’ main food. The poaching of these animals is the greatest danger to tigers. Traps (陷阱) are also a danger. “Volunteers from WWF remove traps every year, but we cannot clear all the traps ourselves,” Zhu said. The most important thing people can do is to save the animals tigers eat. “To protect the tigers, we need to call on more people to stop hunting wild animals.” 31．What is the main idea of the first paragraph?
