After you hear a question, you must choose the best answer from the four choices marked A), B), C) and D).Passage OneQuestions 6 to 10 are based on the passage you have just heard.Script: Athletes who exercise in hot or humid weather are likely to have heat illnesses. Typical symptoms of heat illness include weakness, goose pimples on the chest and upper arms, headache, faintness and reduced sweating. If a child continues to exercise when experiencing any of these symptoms, he could suffer a heat illness. There are three major types of heat illnesses: heat cramps, heat exhaustion and heatstroke. Heat Cramps is the mildest form of heat illness. It usually occurs during or after exercise and affects only the exercised muscles. Symptoms are thirst, increased heartbeat and muscle pain. In this case, no medical attention is required. But the child has to be moved to shade and drink 4 to 8 ounces of sports drinks every 10 to 15 minutes. Heat Exhaustion is a more serious heat illness. It probably results from a reduced blood volume due to sweating. The most typical symptoms are dizziness, headache, shortness of breath and dry mouth. In this case, you have to move the child to a cool place, remove the sweaty clothes, and place ice behind the childs head. You may have to see a doctor if there is no improvement. Heatstroke is the most serious among all heat illnesses. It is life-threatening because the human body stops cooling down and the heat builds up. If a heatstroke child is not treated, his blood and heart system will break down and his central nervous system will be damaged, which results in death. The symptoms are usually no sweating, dry, hot skin, swollen tongue, rapid pulse and low blood pressure. Patients in more serious conditions will also experience vomiting, loss of consciousness and shock. In such cases, you have to call 911 immediately. While you are waiting for help to arrive, you should remove the sweaty clothes, cover the child with ice packs and rub his body with alcohol.6.

Quitting cold turkey can be very difficult because most of us have normal lives during most of the day. When you are suffering through the first five days without smoking, you will feel more like an angry bear than a normal human, and you will be irritable and bad-tempered. Here are some things you can do to make quitting cold turkey less difficult. Smoke until your last day of work or school, and then begin quitting on the weekend. During the first few days, engage yourself in other things you like, even though that looks foolish. Sleeping a lot and watching a lot of TV are also useful for you to forget the cigarettes. Try not to face frustrating situations because frustration makes it easy for you to smoke. Dont go to any place where people will be smoking. If you feel terrible, find a friend to complain about your feelings. While not smoking, you can drink. Keep a lot of your favorite non-alcoholic drinks on hand. You will probably feel very thirsty, because youll want to replace the taste of cigarettes with something else, and drinking can help with that. Also keep your hands and your mouth busy, like chewing gum or tearing paper. When you want to give up, remember that youre one cigarette away from failure. All these tips can be useful if you want to quit cold turkey. None of them is useful if they are never used. As a last piece of advice, nothing is stronger than your willpower.11.
