9 . The Best Medicine
As I approach the hospital wearing my white coat, I look just like any other doctor. That is until I put on my curly rainbow wig, big red nose, and add my name badge “Doctor Larry Laugh-Out-Loud”. I walk through the doors into the waiting area, where there’s a familiar atmosphere of boredom and tension. People sit uncomfortably on plastic chairs, looking through old magazines, all of which have been read hundreds of times previously. Anxious parents do what they can to comfort nervous and crying children.
In the middle of this particular scene I spot a small girl whose ankle is twice its normal size. I speak with the on-duty nurse, who tells me that Lara’s parents rushed her to the hospital after she fell off her bicycle.
Scientific studies show that laughter produces chemicals to make people feel better, which means clown doctors can be helpful. We are specially trained clowns who work as part of a programme known as “hospital clowning”.
Visiting hospitals and other health care facilities, we clown doctors work together with medical professionals. On a typical day, we spend our time cheering up patients, their families, and more often than not, the hospital staff, too! We do this by doing magic tricks, singing songs, telling stories and, of course, telling silly jokes. Some children, though, don’t feel like laughing, especially if they’re in pain. We have to be very sensitive and work closely with the doctors and nurses, who keep us updated on each patient.
And as for me? Well, when I take off my wig and my red nose, I’m still wearing a big smile, as I remember all the fun and laughter of the day. While there might be more hospital visits ahead for Lara and others, I hope that clown doctors help make it a friendlier place to visit.
| A．And my magic medicine does indeed seem to do the trick |
| B．As the saying goes, he who laughs last laughs the best |
| C．After all, it really is true that “laughter is the best medicine” |
| D．I chose this career because of my experience of going to hospital when I was a kid |
| E．Since getting here, Lara has spent her time crying in pain |
FIRST AID FOR BURNS
The skin is an essential part of your body and is its largest organ. Your skin acts as a barrier against disease, toxins, and the sun's rays. It also helps control your body temperature, prevents your body from losing too much water, warns you when things are too hot or cold, and gives you your sense of touch. As you can imagine, getting burnt can lead to very serious injuries. The first and most important step in the treatment of burns is giving first aid.
CAUSES OF BURNS
You can get burnt by a variety of things: hot liquids, steam, fire, radiation, the sun, electricity, acids, or other chemicals.
TYPES OF BURNS
Burns are divided into three types, depending on the depth of skin damage.
·Firstdegree burns These affect only the top few millimetres of the skin. These burns are not serious. Examples include mild sunburn and burns caused by other minor household incidents.
·Seconddegree burns These go below the top layer of the skin. They are serious and take a few weeks to get better. Examples include burns caused by hot liquids.
·Thirddegree burns These affect every layer of the skin, and sometimes the tissue under it. Examples include burns caused by electric shocks, burning clothes, or petrol fires. These burns cause very severe internal injuries and the victim must go to the hospital at once.
CHARACTERISTICS OF BURNS
Firstdegree burns
·dry, red, and mildly swollen
·mildly painful
·turn white when pressed
Seconddegree burns
·red and swollen; blisters; watery surface
·extremely painful
Thirddegree burns
·black and white
·swollen; the tissue underneath can often be seen
·little or no pain if nerves are damaged; may be painful around the edges of the burn
FIRSTAID TREATMENT
①Place burns under cool running water, especially within the first ten minutes. The cool water stops the burning process and reduces the pain and swelling.
②Dry the burnt area gently with a clean cloth.
③Remove any clothes using scissors if necessary, unless you see the fabric sticking to the burnt skin.
④Cover the burnt area with a loose clean cloth. Applying oil to the injured areas is a bad idea, as it will keep the heat in the wounds and may cause infection.
⑤If burns are on the face, make sure the victim can still breathe.
⑥If the victim is suffering from second or thirddegree burns, there is an urgent need to take him/her to the hospital at once.
