Burns
Burns from fire or other sources of heat are different from mild(轻微的)to life threatening. Some burns can be treated at home. While others need emergency(紧急的)medical care.
What to do if you get burned
First, check and decide if you can take care of the burn yourself. Go to the hospital immediately if the burn is serious.
·If you can't get to a hospital right away or must wait for an ambulance, follow these steps;
Remove clothing from the burned area. Do not remove clothing that is stuck to the skin and don't break any blisters(水泡).
Run cool (not cold)water over the burn until the pain becomes lighter. Do not put butter, oil, or ice on burns.
Lightly apply a bandage(绷带)over the burn.
Remove jewelry that's close to the burn.
Seek emergency medical care if:
The burn is serious.
The burned area is large (cover the area with a clean, soft cloth or towel).
The burn comes from a fire, electrical wire or chemicals.
The burn looks infected(被感染的).
Think prevention!
Be careful when using candles, heaters, and curling irons. Do not allow children to play in the kitchen while someone is cooking. Children can easily get burned in kitchens.
a. Bandage the burn. b. Remove jewelry from the burn.
c. Put the burn under the cool running water. d. Tear clothing away from the burn if possible.
I was born in Damyang, a beautiful placeknown for its bamboo forests in Korea. I spent much time in the forestspainting pictures of the bamboo. Painting is one of my talents. I lived thereuntil last year when my family moved to New York. My mother, a scientist, wasasked to come work here.
"There are no bamboo forests," I said, "thereis nothing to paint in New York." "Don't worry, my dear daughter. Youwill find many things to see and paint there," said my mother. "Iwill miss home," I said. "Then you can paint pictures of yourfavorite places. They will make you feel at home," she said. So when we moved,I brought my forest paintings with me.
New York was not easy at first. I missed home a lot. Yetwhen I looked at my paintings of bamboo, I felt much better. I soon foundfriends at school too. They also like painting, and we now paint in a groupafter school.
Last month, we had a new neighbor, Varvara, an old ladywho moved from Russia, to be closer to her daughter. She was sad to leave herhome. My mother and I often visited her. She told us her homesickness andeverything about her hometown Vyborg. I could picture her home in my head.
Varvara missed her home so much that she became ill. Iworried about her and I wanted to do something for her. I had ever been in hersituation before. At least, I had my forest paintings of home. However, shedidn't even have that. Unless...
A few days later, I met Varvara on the stairs. She lookedbetter but still sad. I gave her my gift: a painting of Vyborg. I had paintedit from her memories.
She began to cry as she saw the painting. At first, I wasworried that she didn't like it. Later, she told me that those were tears ofjoy. I knew just how she felt-wherever you go, hometown is always with you.
"What's the name of the supermarket? Ican't remember right now." Have you ever heard your grandparents askquestions like this sometimes? Usually, we think that older people's memorybecomes bad because their brains get weak. But now a team of scientists at theUniversity of Tubingen in Germany has a new idea. "The human brain worksslower in old age," says Michael Ramscar, the team's lead scientist, "onlybecause it has stored more information over time." The findings are basedon a series of computer tests related to learning and memory.
Scientists had the computers read a certain amount ofwords and learn new things each day. When the computer "read" a smallamount of data(数据),its performance on cognitive(认知)tests wassimilar to that of a young adult . But if the computer took in larger amountsof data, its performance was similar to that of an older adult. Oftenitwas slower, but not because its processing ability had dropped. Rather,increased "experience" had caused the computer's database to grow,giving it more data to process-which takes more time. This is similar to howold people process information.
Imagine that one person knows just two people's birthdaysand can get them right each time he or she is asked. Another person knows thebirthdays of 2,000 people, but can only match the right person to the rightbirthday 9 times out of 10. Can you say the first person has a better memorythan the second person?
"The larger the library you have in your head, thelonger it usually takes to find a particular word," Benedict Carey, ascience reporter for The New York Times, wrote in an article about the study.
Guess what Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg and the United States president Donald Trump's granddaughter, Arabella Kushner, have in common? Although Chinese is known as one of the hardest languages to learn, a lot of people from different backgrounds are studying it.
On Novemeber 2, the 12th "Chinese Bridge" Competition was held in Zheng zhou, Henan. And more than 120 foreign students from 105 countries took part in it. After it, the competitors also visited shaolin Temple, Longmen Grottoes(石窟)and other historical sites in Henan.
Although they have different reasons for learning Chinese, the competitors were all excited about the country's rich culture and rapid development. Raissa, a 17-year-old girl, developed a strong emotional connection with China. This led her to learn Chinese at a local Confucius Institute. Fascinated by Chinese culture, she has taken part in activities on traditional Chinese medicine and folk arts during her first trip to China. For Fekete Marcell Zoltan, from Hungary, studying Chinese may offer him a better future job. "After graduating from high school, I would like to further my studies in China," he said.
Since a bridge has been set up between the competitors and China, where will their journeys take them? Robert Davis, a director of a Chinese-language school in Chicago, may give you a reply.
A. They all study Chinese as a second language. B. Her dream is to study Chinese medicine to treat patients. C. Her grandmother was cured by Chinese doctors three years ago. D. Speech contests and talent shows were included in the competition. E. He said Chinese would be the new international language in the future. |
There was a class of students who always caused kinds oftrouble in class and made their teachers terribly angry.1 of the teachers wanted to teach them in thisschool, so the headmaster called a teacher who had just left her job at a2 school. He asked her if she would like to comein and3 at the school for one term. She agreed.
The headmaster decided not to tell the teacher about the4,afraid that she would be scared off. After the new teacher had been on the jobfor a5, the headmaster sat in on the class tosee how things were going. To6 surprise, the students were well-behaved. Theylistened to the teacher carefully ad discussed actively in groups. When theheadmaster saw them7 on the books, his surprises doubled. After theclass, the headmaster8 the teacher because of her work. She thankedhim for giving her such a well-behaved class to teach a month ago. But theheadmaster said he9 didn't deserve(值得)any thanks.
She laughed and told him, "You see, I discovered your10 on my first day here. Ilooked in the desk drawer and found a11 of the students' IQ scores. I knew that I hada challenging group of kids here - they're so12 that I would have to work very hard to makeschool interesting for them, I hope they can13 behaving very well at the end of the term."
She opened the drawer and the headmaster saw a list withthe students' names and the numbers 136, 145, 127, 128...written14 the names.
The headmaster laughed. Those weren't their IQ scores,15 their locker(储物柜)numbers!

Though it may sound like a boast(自夸), I've always been proud that I never litter. One day, when I saw the gate of my neighborhood, all my just disappeared.
A line of colorful bins recently at the gate, with different signs on each one of them. I suddenly realized that I could no longer drop rubbish into the dustbin without giving it a thought. To answer this call of garbage classification(垃圾分类), I found several cardboard boxes at home and used each of them to a certain kind of garbage, such as wastepaper, plastics, batteries and so on.
, this is a lot harder than it sounds. It took me many failed tries before I remembered the classification. But now, doing this makes me feel good it's my contribution to protecting our environment.
As much as we may be proud of our quick development, we haven't realized that the environment is changing the worse. With the quick growth of our population, people are putting huge pressure on the environment, and garbage pollution is one of the problems.
In this situation, garbage classification is necessary. It can prevent pollution, making the air and water cleaner. And can help us make the most use of the waste that would have just been thrown away before.
Most parents want us to be the best. Very often, they compare us to others. doing this, they try to encourage us to do better. They mean well, but the message we often get is that we're not good enough. We begin to believe that the only way we can be special is by being better than someone else, but we are often disappointed.will always be someone who is better than we are at something. Plenty of people around may not be as smart we are, but they are better at sports. Or they may not be as good-looking, but they have more money. It is impossible for us to be better than everyone else all the time.
We all want the things that make us better people. But we don't realize we already have the most important things we want inside us. These things make us different from others. When we are growing up, parents sometimes forget to tell us that we are special. Anyway, it's up to us to remind them that each of us special in our own way. What we are is enough.
