What should we do if one of our classmates suddenly falls ill or gets hurt? Here is some useful advice to help you.
Broken bones Take away the clothing from the wound. Use an ice bag. Don’t move the hurt body part while waiting for the doctor to arrive. |
Animal bites(咬) Wash the bite part with soap and water. Bandage the wound with a piece of clean cloth if it’s bleeding. If the bleeding stops, take the person to the hospital. Make sure you remember what kind of animal it is so the doctor can find the right way to treat him or her at once. |
Fainting(昏厥) Let him or her with feet lifted. Don’t move the body if you think there might be wounds from the fall. Make sure he or she can breathe and let in fresh air. Clean the person’s face with a piece of cool cloth. |

When I have something difficult to do, I always ask my mom, “Could you help me?” But she always says, “Do it yourself, dear.” Then I get so sad. I think she is a lazy mother.
For example, one day, I invited some friends to my home. My bedroom was out of order. Bo
oks were all over the table and floor. I forgot to make my bed. So I asked my mother to help me clean my bedroom. But she said seriously, “Do it yourself, girl.” So I did it.
Because of my “lazy mother”, I am supposed to (应该) wash my clothes and clean my room. I have to help my parents do some housework. I even have to go to the dentist by myself when I have a toothache. It’s really hard to do everything on my own, but I have learned a lot.
