  A: Hey,Joe!  Where have you been these past few days?

B: I’ve been busy with a first aid course that I started about a week ago at the Red Cross.

A: Cool!  I’ve always wanted to do something like that! Have you learned anything useful?

B: For sure! I mean we’ve learned how to apply pressure to stop bleeding, how to check for a pulse, and even how to apply CPR!

A: Have you treated any real emergencies?

B: Well, they took us along with some paramedics. There was this guy who fell off his motorcycle and suffered a concussion 1 as well as a couple of compound fractures 2. His wounds were pretty serious so they had to rush him to the hospital. It was intense!

A: I can imagine! I tend to faint when I see blood, so I think I won’t be taking up a course like that anytime soon!

A: 嗨,乔,这些天你去哪里了?

B: 我一直忙于一周前在红十字会那里开始学的急救课程。

A: 真酷,我也一直想做点那类的是。你学到什么有用的东西了吗?

B: 当然。我学会了如何按压来止血,如何来检查麦博,甚至也学了如何用心肺复苏法。

A: 你治疗过紧急事故吗?

B: 他们让一些护理人员带我们。有一个人从摩托上摔下来,收到了震荡,还有几处综合性骨折。他的伤很严重,所以他们必须飞速将他送往医院,真是很紧急。

A: 我能想到,一看到血我就晕。所以我再也不会参加那样的课程了。
