A
External bleeding.Apply direct pressure.Place a clean,folded cloth over the injured area and firmly apply pressure.If blood soaks through,do not remove it.Instead,cover that cloth with another one and continue to apply pressure to the wound for 7—10 minutes.If the bleeding is from the ear,place a clean bandage over the ear,lay the victim on his side,and allow the blood to drain out through the bandage.
Elevate the injury.Position the wounded part of the body above the level of the heart if possible while you apply direct pressure.
Know the pressure points.If direct pressure and elevation don't sufficiently slow the bloodflow,find a pressure point.Large arteries (动脉) found close to the skin's surface supply blood to the head and to each arm and leg.The most common pressure points used during the first aid are located in the upper arms and in the creases above the upper legs.Apply pressure to the closest pressure point to the wound so that the artery is pressed between your fingers and the bone directly behind the artery.If using the pressure point on a leg,you may need to use the heel of your hand instead of your fingers.
Resort to a tourniquet(止血带,压脉器).On very rare occasions everything listed above may fail.To prevent the victim from dying,you should apply a tourniquet.Once a tourniquet is applied,it should not be loosened or removed until the victim has reached medical help.Use a tourniquet only if everything

listed above has failed.If you use a tourniquet,write down somewhere on the victim the time when it was applied,so medical persons will know how long it has been in place.

Are you addicted to computer games?Do you stay up all night playing them?Do you feel happy after you play computer games?
There's no doubt that the excitement and appeal of games these days makes them hard to put down.We are attracted by the choice when it comes to gaming:You can role play—creating your own fantasy characters and stories,giving you chance to step out of everyday life into an imaginary world.And there are shooting games where you can let out your anger and depression in violent situations where you kill people with guns.You can get excited from the games.
However,can these kinds of games really be fun and can being absorbed in virtual reality be good for us?Should we worry about their effects on our health? Popular games like Grand Theft Auto have been blamed for everything from falling results at school to causing acts of extreme violence.Internet safety advisor,Alan MacKenzie,thinks “any people understandably will just think that a game is just a game and not realizing the exact content that's in there”.He gives an example of the violence,which he says is “wholly inappropriate for anybody,not to mention children”.
Others will argue that gaming is a harmless form of entertainment.There is evidence that playing video games could actually be good for us.Some games like Game of Thrones and World of Warcraft are educational and using games certainly can help children learn good qualities.Studies have also shown that the skills used in playing games can cause growth in certain areas of the brain,the ability to think in 3D and even improve our eyesight.
Video game players are also no longer just simple creatures.For some,gaming is having a positive effect on their social lives with games like Halo and World of Warcraft often being played in groups.When your group works together to win the game,your sense of achievement is higher than when winning by yourself.
So every coin has two sides.It seems today,gaming isn't just for game fans

and if used in a proper way,we can all take part.If video games have two sides,what side do you stand by?
