Only about 30 percent of people in the US know how to perform CPR (心肺复苏术). Recently, a 9-year-old boy showed a Georgia woman how to perform CPR on her newborn baby.

Susanna Rohm said she had experienced a parent‟s worst nightmare (噩梦) — her 2-month-old son, Isiah, was not breathing. “I noticed he looked pale. I looked at his arms and his legs and they were limp (无力的),” Rohm told a local newspaper. “Then I noticed that he looked like he wasn‟t alive.” In dismay, she dropped and broke her cellphone. Rohm had to run into the street, screaming for help.

“I had him in my arms and screamed over and over. Then I ran outside. I saw two boys playing across the street, and I yelled, „Go and ask your parents to call 911,‟” Rohm said. But the two boys were able to do more than that. Nine-year-old Ethan Wilson took action, showing Rohm how to perform CPR on little Isiah while ten-year-old Rocky Hurt helped as well.

Rocky said he had learned the CPR technique from a poster in a health class at their school, Sedalia Park Elementary. “I was thinking we‟d better give her a helping hand instead of getting scared,” Ethan said. “I told her to push on the baby‟s chest five to ten times a minute with only two fingers, tilt back the baby‟s head, plug the baby‟s nose and breathe into the baby‟s mouth,” Ethan said in an interview.

At last, Isiah began crying and was breathing again. He spent two nights in a local hospital. “If the little boy hadn‟t shown me what to do right there, my baby would probably not be alive right now,” Rohm said.

Americans won‟t live without cars! Each year there is an increasing number of cars on roads and streets, as millions of new cars are produced. One not of every six Americans work at putting together the parts of cars, driving trucks, building roads or filling cars with gas.

Most Amorists find it hard to think what life would be without a car. However, some have realized the serious problem of air pollution by cars. The polluted air is poisonous and dangerous to health.

One way to get rid of the polluted air is to design a new car that does not pollute. That‟s what several large car factories are trying to do. But to build the new car is easier said than done. Progress in this field has been slow.

Another way is to take place of the car engine by something else. Engineers are now working on some new cars. Many makers believe that it will take years to develop a practical model that pleases man.

To prevent the world from being polluted by cars, we‟ll have to make some changes in the way many of us live. Americans, for example, have to cut down the number of their cars they are encouraged to travel and go to work by bike. Biding a bike is though to help keep the air clean.

But this change does not come easily; a large number of workers may find themselves with no jobs if a car factory closes down. And the problem of air pollution would become less important than that of unemployment.

12.How many ways to get rid of air pollution are suggested in this article by the

writer?

A.Three. B.One. C.Two. D.Four. 13.Large car factories are trying to build a clean car, . A.which is clean itself B.which is used to clean streets C.which is easier to make D.which does not pollute the air

14.If the number of cars is cut down, the most serious problem in American workers

is .

A.to have no work to do B.to keep the air clean C.to get a better life D.to go to work by bike 15.What is the conclusion of the writer? A.Bicycling is the only way out.

B.Cars bring us not only a better life but serious problems.

C.The number of cars must be cut down. D.Cars bring us nothing but serious problems.
