一、阅读理解（每小题5分，满分40分）

A

Medical emergencies are not always easy to recognize. Yet any delay in emergency treatment could mean the difference between life and death. Everyone should know the warning signs of a medical emergency.

One is a sudden or serious pain that does not go away. This includes pain in the stomach, chest or head. A severe headache, worse than anything you have ever felt, could mean bleeding in the head from a broken artery. Severe stomach pain could be a sign of appendicitis（阑尾炎）. Severe chest or back pain could signal a heart attack.

Another warning sign of a medical emergency is having difficulty breathing. This could mean a heart trouble, or there could be a hole in a lung. Other warning signs include losing consciousness（意识） or becoming weak. Uncontrolled bleeding from any wound also calls for professional care.

It is said that children can show different signs of medical problems. A child might be too young to describe the problem. Yet symptoms（症状） that are not as serious for an adult may be more serious for a child.

       There is also advice about what to do if you ever need care at an emergency department. One suggestion is to bring a list of any medicines you take. Are you allergic（过敏的） to any foods or insects? Do you get a bad reaction to any medications or other products? And, the doctors say, remain calm. That can help increase communication with doctors and nurses at the hospital.
