Most people don’t take first aid training because they are busy. Some even think only doctors need to learn first aid. But in fact, it is useful. Here are the good sides of learning first aid.
　　Save lives.First aid helps save lives. Giving someone first aid can help him or her get better fast. First aid training teaches how to keep calm in emergencies.
　　Help someone feel better.Not every accident or injury (受伤) needs a visit to the hospital. But it doesn’t mean you should not try to help someone injured, even though the injury isn’t very serious. You can use first aid to help anyone in need, for example, a person who doesn’t feel well because of a fever.
　　Keep a situation(情况) from getting worse. Sometimes, if a person doesn’t get first aid in time, his or her situation will get worse soon. If you give him or her simple care, you will help him or her feel better and keep things from getting worse.

If you’ve recently been vaccinated (给……接种疫苗) against COVID-19, you’re probably feeling relaxed because the vaccine can protect you from getting sick! However, you might also have a lot of questions. Don’t worry. We’re here to help.
　　Should I wear a mask and keep social distance(社交距离) after I’m vaccinated Yes, when you’re in public — at least for now. Scientists are still learning how COVID-19 vaccines work to protect people. So for right now, it’s still safest to do these while you’re in public. Keep wearing your mask, stay at least 1.8m away from other people, and wash your hands often. Also, try to avoid(避免) crowded places and areas that don’t have good ventilation (通风).
　　Can I go to a restaurant after I’m vaccinated It may be best to avoid it for now. Scientists aren’t 100% sure whether you can pick it up and spread it to other people. If you do choose to go to a restaurant or other public places, you still need to wear a mask, wash your hands often, and stay at least 1.8m away from others.
　　Can I travel after receiving the COVID-19 vaccine You should probably still avoid traveling for a while. When you travel, it’s harder to control your environment, so you may still be at risk of getting or spreading COVID-19, even if you have been vaccinated. If you can, it’s probably better to stay close to home until the pandemic is better under control.
　　What are the most common side effects(副作用) of the COVID-19 vaccine You might have the flu. When you receive the vaccine, you might feel tired or get a headache, muscle pains or a fever. You might also get pain, redness, or swelling (肿胀) in your arm where you received the shot.
36.If you go to a restaurant after you’re vaccinated, you should 　　　　. 　　　　 　　　　　 　　　　　
A. go with a friend
B. ask a doctor first
C. choose a crowded one
D. wear a mask
37.You should not travel even if you have received the COVID-19 vaccine, because 　　　　.
A. you may have serious side effects
B. you can’t control the environment

38.Which of the following is not the side effect of the COVID-19 vaccine according to the passage

Isn’t fast food delicious Aren’t fast food restaurants cool ... The answer to these questions is yes.
However, there are growing facts that fast food is one of the worst parts of modern life. And studies have shown that burgers and fried chicken, which we enjoy so much, can cause a lot of health problems.
In spite of (尽管) this, why are fast food restaurants so attractive (吸引人的) The first and most important reason is that their service is fast. Their staff (员工) are friendly and very smart-looking in their clean and bright uniforms (制服). Moreover, most fast food restaurants are near places that people always pass by. It is so easy to grab a burger and eat it on the way to work.
Fast food is often so conveniently packed (包装方便) that it will not cause a mess even if you stand and eat it. Fast food restaurants are also very clean. A lot of clever ads (广告) have made them the coolest places in town, but none of them has ever told and will never tell you that too much fast food is not good for your health.
Such attractive places are selling junk food! Isn’t it a pity Is there a way to change the fast food restaurants into special places where you get the best possible, healthy and fresh food
Well, why not
As people realize the health problems that fast food causes, it is quite likely that fast food restaurants may go out of
date. It may happen sooner or later. Therefore, instead of resisting (抵制) fast food restaurants, a better idea may be to persuade (说服) them to change their menu! Fast food restaurants can be places to go to when you want to eat something that will be good for your body. If they could combine (结合) healthy food with their speed of service, delicious tastes and comfortable feelings, that will be the next best thing on the earth for the human beings!

三、【范文赏读】
Dear Susan,
　　I’m sorry to hear that you’re not feeling well. You are new here, so you may feel lonely. I think you should make some Chinese friends. And you shouldn’t study too late in the evening. It is bad for your health. If you have problems, you can ask your teachers or classmates for help. They are friendly. What’s more, you should take exercise every day. You said you had a cold yesterday. If so, you’d better go to a doctor in time.
　　I hope you will get well soon.
Yours,
Zhao Hua
