This is the VOA Special English Health

Report.

Cardiopulmonary resuscitation, or CPR, can save the life of someone whose heart has stopped. The condition is called cardiac arrest. The heart stops pumping blood. The person stops breathing. Without life saving measures, the brain starts to die within four to six minutes.

CPR combines breathing into the victim's mouth and repeated presses on the chest.

CPR keeps blood and oxygen flowing to the heart and brain.

However, a new Japanese study questions the usefulness of mouth-to-mouth breathing.Thestudy was published in the British medical magazine, The Lancet.

Comment

今天復(fù)習(xí)的時候先是綜合錄了音頻，然后一句一句跟音頻，錄音頻，然后再綜合錄音頻對比，發(fā)現(xiàn)自己一開始讀的時候就會快，還是有一些重讀音讀錯，另外音標的感覺還可以，好多了，但是還是缺練習(xí)，因為氣息不是特別順，有些憋，還是像中文，一字一句，尤其是英文歌的時候，氣息不連貫很明顯。
