Ⅱ 阅读短文,回答下列问题。
Diana was shopping in a busy store after work one evening.
Just five minutes before closing time, she heard a shop worker
saying, “Someone’s having a seizure (疾病突发)”.
Walking quickly towards the shop worker, Diana saw a
shopper on the ground. She was lying on the floor, jerking
uncontrollably (控制不住地抽搐). A small group of people
crowded to help the woman and a shop worker called an
ambulance.

Diana knew that she could use what she had learned from her
first aid training to help as well.
“The seizure was very different from the way people usually
move,” Diana said. “The woman’s movements were so powerful
that her glasses flew off her face.”
Knowing it was important to keep the woman safe, one of the
workers brought over a worker jacket and put it under the
woman’s head so she wouldn’t hurt herself.
“The seizure probably lasted only a few minutes, but it seemed
much longer while it was going on,” Diana said, “When the
jerking stopped, a man helped turn the woman onto her side. I
then tilted (倾斜) her head back to help her keep breathing.
After the seizure, the woman seemed not to be able to understand
what we were saying and couldn’t speak. Luckily, I learned that
this could happen after a seizure and it might take some time for
people to get back to feeling like their normal selves. It was such
a relief (宽慰) when she finally answered that she was OK.”
By this time, the ambulance was on its way, so the other
shoppers who had helped left.“As I was leaving, one of the store’s
workers said, ‘Thank you for your kindness.’ I was very touched
by her words, and I told her that I’d learned first aid in case
something like this ever happened, and now it had,” Diana said,
“Although the accident left me feeling very shaken, I was glad I
knew what to do to help.”
