39、he center.Passage ABurns and scalds are painful injuries that may prove fatal if severe or if they cover a large area. Burns are caused by fire, hot metals, chemicals, radiation, or electricity. Scalds are caused by hot liquids, steam, or other hot vapors, and are treated much the same as burns.Clas

40、sification of burns is determined by the depth of the tissue injury. First-degree burns are those in which the surface is red and painful, but the skin is not broken or blistered. Typical first-degree burns result from sunburn, electric flash, and other mild causes. Second-degree burns are those in

41、which blisters are formed. Third-degree burns are deep, with charring and actual destruction of the skin and tissue. Second- and third-degree burns frequently become infected and are very serious.Treatment of burns must take into consideration the possibility of severe shock caused by the great pain

42、 of second- and third-degree burns. It is necessary to work rapidly to avoid chilling the patient, and he should be kept in a horizontal position. In large first-degree burns, the shock may be more serious than the burn itself.In first-aid treatment, a sterile petrolatum ointment is excellent. When

43、this is not available, baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) may safely be used in a slightly warm solution, three heaping table-spoonfuls to a quart of water. For large burns, clean linen, sheets, or towels dipped in the soda solution may be wrapped around the person, after which blankets and hot water

44、bottles are used to combat shock. Immediate care by a physician may prevent disfiguring scars.Chemical burns should be washed immediately with flowing water (from a faucet or hose, or by pouring) to dilute and remove the chemical. After this has been done, the injury may be cared for as any other bu

46、pth of injury.*DThecondition of skin and surface.63. The passage implies that.A the burn patient should be chilled quicklyB great pains from burns sometimes lead to shock*C the larger the area affected, the deeper the injuryD second- or third-degree burns often cause shock.64. Which of the following

47、 is not mentioned as part of the first-aid?A The application of a sterile ointment.B The use of baking soda in a warm solution.C Keeping the patient warm with blankets.D Cleaning the burned surface with towels.*65. What should be the first step in treating chemical burns?A Calling in an experienced

48、physician.B Covering the affected area with ointment.C Wrapping up the affected parts with sheets.D Removing the chemicals with flowing water.*Passage BThe big mid- year scare last year was shark attacks. This year itWsWestlNilerviajthreatthat is in some ways more frightening because you don' t

The infestation, first reported in New York City in 1999, has reached nearly every region east of the Rockies. Seven people have died so far this year, and healthofficials believe that an e

50、ighth man, who died in Mississippi last week, was infested. Neighbors have practically come to blows over the pros and cons of spraying against mosquitoes.Before you decide never to go out again at dawn or dusk, though, it pays to consider the latest information about West Nile virus. Yes, the West

51、Nile virus has been found in birds and mosquitoes in many states. Yes, it seems likely to reach the West Coast by the end of the year. But the chances of getting infected are still pretty slim, and most people who get sick will develop mild flu-like symptoms. In only a rare few will the infection le

52、ad to encephalitis, a potentially deadly inflammation of the brain.That does not mean you should ignore the West Nile virus. And public-health officials definitely need to update some of their long- forgotten plans for mosquito control. But it' s not as if we th or 19rte living in the 18century,

53、 when mosquito- borne illnesses like yellow fever ravaged New York. Back then, doctors didn know that mosquitoes were to blame, and there was certainly no vaccine as there is now for yellow fever to help control the spread of the disease.Work is progressing on a vaccine for West Nile. Meanwhile, the

54、 best strategy is to use a little commonsense. Killing all the birds and mosqui toes that carry the virus is not really an option." People are goingto change their habits, says Dr. John Shanley. That means wearing long -sleeved shirts and long pants and using insect repellent during mosquito se

55、ason. You should also practice mosquito control around your house.You can never eliminate risk, but in this case at least, you can control it.66.
