In fact, there are some people who present few or no symptoms (征兆) when they are having a heart attack. However, the common symptoms are chest pain (疼痛), shortness of breath, breaking out in cold sweat (汗). Not getting to the hospital in time may result in death.The symptoms of a heart attack are not as clear in women as they are in men. Women may experience breathlessness, fast heart beating, light-headedness, chest pain, neck and shoulder pain and unusual tiredness. Heart attacks with few or no symptoms seem to be more common in women than men.The early warning symptoms of a heart attack usually last for at least 20 minutes, during which women may experience one or more symptoms. These include:Pain in chestA heart attack usually causes discomfort or pain in the center of the chest, which lasts for more than 20 minutes and is usually with a lot of cold sweat. The pain may come on suddenly, start slowly, develop over minutes, or come and go. Women usually have lighter chest pains and so may not take this symptom seriously.Pain spreadingThe chest discomfort may spread to the neck and throat, shoulders, the back, arms and even to wrists and hands.Discomfort in the upper bodySome people dont get chest pain-only discomfort in parts of the upper body, including back or neck pain. There may be a feeling of choking (阻塞) in the throat, or the arms may feel heavy.Unusual symptomsThere may be shortness of breath or some difficulty breathing, a cold sweat, or a feeling of being light-headed.Lots of tirednessA study of 515 women found that the most common early warning symptom of a heart attack in women is unusual tiredness.See a doctor if you experience one or more of such symptoms.

If I was used to the environment, I would like to go to high school there. I got along well with my teachers and classmates. Even though we had known each other only a short time, we formed a good friendship.On April 3, I made plans to meet my friends at East Coast Park, so we could hang out for the last time before I returned to Thailand. That morning, I went to the underground station and found a place just behind the yellow line that stops people from standing too close to the edge of the platform (站台). More people began lining up behind me, and before long I could feel the push of the people at my back.Just as the train came up to the station, the people pushed forward. I lost balance (平衡) and fell off the platform. Before I knew what was happening, the trains front wheels rolled across my legs. Looking at the platform, I shouted, “Help me! Quickly!” I didnt cry because I knew that if I started I might not be able to control myself.After I was lifted onto the platform, I was taken directly to the nearest hospital where a doctor told me that they would not be able to save my legs. I accepted what he said. Whatever was going to happen would happen. Theres no point in crying about whats already lost.I stayed in the hospital for two months and ten days. And then an exciting thing happened. The second daughter of the King of Thailand learned about my accident and had me moved to the Sirindhorn Center back home. She also offered me the chance to finish my education at the Chitralada School in Bangkok. I was so happy because the school is very difficult to get into. It was very kind of her to help out a person like me. At the center, I was fitted with German-made prosthetic legs. Learning to walk again was difficult. Every step needed a lot of training.I often asked why I could still smile after the accident. The fact is that I dont know why I should be sad. All that Ive lost are legs, not my life. Everything that happened after the accident was truly surprising. I really believe that I now have a great doctor at the center. I have met others whove lost limbs like me. Getting into Chitralada School is beyond belief for me. Meeting new people is great. Getting help from the Kings daughter has been very encouraging.I think my attitude comes from how my parents raised me. This is what my dad said in an interview: “I tell both of my daughters that nothing is certain. We could die tomorrow or in the next five years. Anything could happen, so we always have to be prepared. I think my daughter has done very well in the accident.”56. Whats the writers purpose to go to Singapore?A. To join her family.B.

The writer lost both of her legs.D. The writer was taken to hospital.58. What the writers father said mainly tells us that _.A. we can never know the futureB. death usually comes suddenlyC. the world is full of dangersD. one must be ready for anything59. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?A. Walk OnB. Goodbye My LegsC. Stand Up D.
