It's not common that a grandmother aged 89 is crowned Queen of Icebergs in north America, but when it does happen it's quite the sight.
On a recent trip to Iceland, Judith Streng became that grandma after her son attempted to take a photograph of her sitting on an ice structure that looks like a throne (宝座) at Diamond Beach in Jokul. Shortly after Streng sat down to pose, the piece of ice broke off and floated into the water.
“I thought it was safe. One girl had been on it and then two girls at the same time, and it was very secure with them. When I got on it, it started to shake and a wave was coming in. A very large wave came in and made the throne kind of shake, and I could tell that I was slipping off,” Streng told ABC News.
Streng's story went hot after her 24-year-old granddaughter Catherine posted a text message on Twitter to exchange she had with her father about the incident. “My grandmother almost got lost at sea in Iceland today!”
Catherine explained via Twitter that her father described the scene vividly. He has a PhD in English, and described the event in the following words, “She climbed to the throne after a wave had pulled back and left it briefly exposed on the beach. Then a wave washed in and removed the ice throne, rocking it from side to side. When the wave left, it lifted the throne and carried her out into the sea with the tide. ”
Luckily for the Streng family, Randy, a licensed boat captain from Florida with knowledge of water rescue strategies witnessed the whole thing, and was able to save the day.

Ⅱ.七选五
First Aid to Stop Nosebleeds
Nosebleeds occur when the inner lining of one's nose is hurt or dry.Although a nosebleed may be frightening,most conditions that cause nosebleeds are not serious or life threatening. 1
Position your body.To begin with, sit down,since it is more comfortable than standing.Tilt head forward so that the blood drains through the nostrils. 2 A towel can be held under your nose to collect the blood.Do not lie down as this can cause blood to pass down the throat.
Press the nose. Use your thumb and index finger to hold your nostrils for 5 to 10 minutes while you breathe through your mouth. This puts pressure on the part of your nose that's bleeding and can make the blood stop flowing. 3
Cool yourself down. Lowering your body temperature can help reduce the blood flow to your nose. To do this, place ice cubes in your mouth. This helps achieve a lower temperature sooner than cooling the external part of the nose. 4 This is more effective than placing a cold compress over the nose. You can also suck on a popsicle to achieve the same result.
5 After bleeding has stopped, you can clean the area around your nose with warm water. After you have cleaned your face,you should rest for a while. This is to help to prevent further bleeding.
A.Be gentle on your nose.
B.Wash your nose and rest.
C.Keep your head above your heart.
D.It also helps you keep the lower temperature for longer.
E.You should see a doctor if you do not have a serious issue.
F.If bleeding continues, reapply pressure for another 10 minutes.
G.You can perform some first aid at home during a nosebleed to help stop it.
