Electric Shock

Injuries caused by electric shock are fairly common．When a person has received an electric shock, no one should go near him/her until the current has been turned off．If a shock occurring at work or at home causes someone to lose consciousness, electrical connection must be broken before anyone tries to give assistance．You should either turn off the switch at the mains or, if that is not possible, push the person away with a dry piece of wood．

Treatment Shock

Look out for signs of shock．People who have been injured or who may have lost a lot of blood, or those who have had heart attacks, may be in deep shock．The signs to look for are faintness, paleness, a moist, sticky skin, shallow, rapid breathing and a fast but weak heartbeat．

Shock can prove fatal, and it is essential to do something to prevent its developing．The best way to treat or prevent shock is to keep the patient lying down, better with the legs higher than the head; if possible, raise the lower part of the body on a rolled-up packet or similar object．Make the patient as comfortable as possible, loosening any tight clothing, and comfort him/her because fright increases the effects of shock．

1．Match the pictures with the passages．_________

       A．Picture 2．Electric shock; Picture 3．Treatment of shock

       B．Picture 1．Electric shock; Picture 4．Treatment of shock

       C．Picture 4．Electric shock; Picture 2．Treatment of shock

       D．Picture 3．Electric shock; Picture 1．Treatment of shock

       A．how to deal with difficulties                  B．how to do first aid

       C．how to face danger                              D．how to match pictures with passages

3．What would happen if you didn’t turn off the current when you had to treat an unconscious person who had just received an electric shock?

       A．He would regain his consciousness soon．

       B．He would die soon．

       C．Electrical connection would be broken． 

       D．You would be in danger of getting the shock yourself．

4．Of the following adjectives chosen from above, which one has the meaning of “causing death”?
