题目内容:
Larry Ritsema was out for an early morning jog around his neighborhood on one weekend.On a quiet street, he began to feel weak.Suddenly, everything went black.Larry fell to the ground.
Less than a minute later, Tom Alguire passed by on his bicycle.He caught sight of a man lying on the roadside, so he jumped off his bike and ran over.He recognized Larry immediately, because he had been Larry’s doctor for nearly 20 years.
Dr Tom felt for a pulse at first.Finding none, he began to give Larry first aid.It wouldn’t restart Larry’s heart, but it would keep the blood flowing until someone else arrived.Tom could only hope someone would come by soon, around six o’clock in the morning on a holiday weekend.Tom couldn’t stop pressing Larry’s chest to run for help — Larry’s brain cells would die without the blood.And Tom didn’t have a mobile phone with him.
Soon, a car did drive by.But the driver ignored Tom’s appeal for help.What was he going to do? Tom was very worried.Finally, another car came down the road, driven by Michael Saliot, a US Coast Guard Officer.Michael wasn’t one to pass up a chance to help a person in need.He quickly dialed 911.
Doctors then found that Larry had suffered a heart attack and there were severe blockages in two of Larry’s major arteries (动脉).Only the timely arrival of Dr Tom saved his life.
How did Dr Tom happen to be bicycling that morning down that quiet street? It turned out that as Tom rode, his bike chain fell off.He spent about eight minutes fitting it back; otherwise, he would have seen nothing of Larry’s problem.
