16、h he had lived for 44 days without food on October 19, 2022. Hundreds of people came to watch the end of his starvation experiment, which has become one of Londons main tourist attractions.Looking thinner and darker, 30 year-old Blaine was taken out of his box over the River Thames and immediately w
17、ent to hospital. He was then slowly reintroduced to food, a process doctors say could be life threatening. He had been drinking only water since September 5.A native of Brooklyn, New York, Blaine first became known as a street magician in the early 1990s. He soon found himself doing magic tricks in
18、bars for the likes of American actor Leonardo DiCaprio and his super model friends.Over the last decade Blaine has become famous with a combination of breathtaking magic and clever tricks aimed at getting a lot of attentionIn 1999, he was buried in a coffin (棺材) for one week and, in 2000, he spent 6
19、2 hours in a giant block of ice. Last year he stood on top of a 25-meter pillar (柱子) in the center of New York for 35 hours before jumping into a pile of boxes.“I think a lot of people are unable to accept that theyre able to do what they can do,” he said. “They dont realize we can survive.

23、mber of office workers have been trained in basic life-saving techniques.Just 33,526 of Londons estimated 3.5 million workers signed up with St Johns Ambulance and the British Red Cross to learn simple first aid last year. The figures coming from a new report show that nine out of 10 people would no
24、t know what to do if a colleague was badly hurt, while 72 percent have never attended a first-aid course. Doctors describe the situation as appalling and have called for urgent training in schools and the workplace.Training in first aid should start at an early age and should be taught to everybody
25、at school. First aid is very important because at best it can save lives and at worst it reduces pressure on hospital rooms. Employers get anxious when a worker has had some sort of accident in the office or factory and rush them to the hospital even if all they require is a bandage .Last year 20,00
26、0 Londoners were trained in first aid by St Johns Ambulance, the leading provider in life-saving courses, and 13,526 were trained by the Red Cross. According to St Johns Ambulance, four out of five parents do not know how to carry out mouth-to-mouth resuscitation (苏醒). Nick Suggitt, training manager
27、 with St John Ambulance, said, “We are training just a tiny part of the number necessary, and only touching the tip of the iceberg. ”“Not enough people know how to save a life, and since many emergencies occur at home or at work, these skills are often needed to save the life of a friend or a family

31、er Jon Corzine suffered serious injuries in a car accident on April 12, many of the reports focused on his failure to wear a seat belt. Its reported that seatbelt use has gone up by 10 percent since 2000, hitting a record 81 percent nationwide in 2022. And the agency reports that safety belts saved
32、about 15,434 lives in 2022. But for some groups, particularly teens and young adults, usage still lags. Sixty-two percent of the 5,135 young people ages 16 to 20 killed when riding in passenger vehicles(交通工具) in 2022 were not wearing safety belts. So if youre the parent of a teen, remind them to fas
33、ten up every time they get into a car. Yes, even its just for a short ride and even if theyre in the back seat. And for kids under 13, be sure to follow these safety guidelines (准则).

35、 outgrow their booster seats, they can use an adult seat belt in the back seat as long as it fits properly. New rules require manufacturers(制造商 )to start using “smart” air bags for all 2022 cars.

65、With the development of science and technology, the Internet has become part of our everyday life. It helps us in many ways. Shopping is a good example. We can buy things on the Internet without leaving our houses. Shopping on the Internet can save a lot of time. Whats more, the goods may be cheaper
66、 than those in shops.Though it is convenient to shop on the Internet, theres still something we are worried about. Quality is a big problem. We cant see the genuine goods on the Internet. Therefore, we are not sure about the quality of them.
