Camp’s Bay.

I’m a tutor for South East Coast Ambulance Service( SECAmb), and a

mother of two young children. It has become very clear to me that young

people in our primary and secondary schools are in need of learning

important lifesaving skills.

I have been a CER( Community First Responder) for over five years.

After jumping at the opportunity of training to become a CFR Tutor, I

chose to continue training and became a fully certified first aid instructor.

This led to the birth of Impulse First Aid, my newly established business,

specializing in the teaching of emergency first aid to children, parents,

schools and small business.

Unfortunately, my business stopped at the start of the summer holidays in

2018 due to a riding accident, which left me with a broken back.

Thankfully, with support of our ambulance service(SECAmb) and the team

at St George’s Hospital, I have been able to continue my devotion to

teaching, and I love every second of it!

Every child should be taught first aid, and what they can do to help in the

event of a medical emergency. The several hours in the classroom, could,

and have proven to help children develop and be confident in their

newfound skills. Understanding what a defibrillator （除颤器） is, and

learning how to use one in addition to basic lifesaving skills are incredibly

valuable and rewarding skills to have.

With the government’s recent plans to teach CPR （心肺复苏）as part of

the must-do first aid training from 2020, a big difference could be made,

and many lives could be saved. It is known that less than 1 in 10 people

survived an out-of -hospital cardiac arrest（心脏骤停）in the UK. Proving

the children with the tools and confidence to perform these invaluable skills

would be fantastic. They can help others when necessary, while also

knowing how to look out for themselves.

4. What did the author choose to do after becoming a CFR Tutor?

A. Focus on building the SECAmb.

B. Find a job in her local community.

C. Become a professional first aid trainer.

D. Teach her two children lifesaving skills.

5. Why didi the author’s business stop in the summer of 2018?

A. She wasn’t good at operating it.

B. Her physical condition didn’t allow it.

C. Her interest was directed to ambulance service.

D. She was too busy with her work at St George’s Hospital.

6. What can we infer about the author’s courses?

A. They last about an hour each time.

B. They were aimed at primary students.

C. They cover the use of some first aid instruments.

D. They were started after the author’s riding accident.

7. What’s the author’s attitude towards the government’s recent plans?

A. Critical B. Anxious C. Unconcerned D. Supportive

Individually, ants have only so much strength and intelligence. However, as

a group, they can use complex strategies to complete complicated tasks and

escape from larger predators（捕食者）.

Robotics researchers in Professor Jamie Paik’s Laboratory have

reproduced this characteristic. They’ve developed tiny robots that display

small physical intelligence on an individual level but that are able to

communicate and act collectively （共同地). Though being simple in

design and weighing only 10 grams, each robot has many different

movement patterns to go through any type of surface. Collectively, they can

quickly discover and overcome obstacles （障碍）， and move objects

much larger and heavier than themselves. The related research has been

published in Nature.

These three- legged, T-shaped robots are called Tribots. They can be made

in only a few minutes by folding some thin, multi-material boards. That

means they’re suitable to be produced in quantity. Completely self-acting

and wireless, Tribots are equipped with infrared（红外线的）and close-

range sensors （传感器） for exploration and communication purposes.

They could have even more sensors, depending on the application. So they

can be widely used in various situations.

“ Their movements are modeled on those of Odontomachus ants. These

insects normally crawl, but to escape a predator, they jump from leaf to

leaf” says Zhenishbek Zhakypov, the lead researcher. Tribots copy this

jumping ability through an elegant foldable design that combines several

drivers made from shape-memory materials. As a result, a single robot can

produce five movements: jumping up, jumping forward, turning over to

clear obstacles, walking on waved ground and crawling on flat surface--just

like the real ants.

Although these robots have the same structure, each of them is given a

specific role in the group, depending on the situation. “ Explorers” find out

physical obstacles in their path, such as objects, valleys and mountains.

After discovering an obstacles, they inform the “leader” of the situation.

Then, the “leader” gives the instructions. After that, the “workers” gather

up their strength to move objects.

8. What is special about the newly-developed robots?

A. They can move large objects individually.

B. They are designed to have the same legs as ants.

C. They can communicate and cooperate with each other.

D. They are created completely by researchers’ imagination.

9. What does Paragraph 3 imply?

A. Tribots have many different shapes.

B. Tribots can work collectively with sensors.

C. Tribots are actually made out of cheap materials.

D. Tribots are very likely to have a promising future.

10. Tribots can jump like real ants mainly due to_____

A. their special materials. B. the foldable design
