Dear Editor,
Why do newspapers carry so many advertisements for electronic equipment? Last Sunday I counted ads for seven kinds of televisions and thirteen kinds of radios in the Atlanta Journal. Besides that, three were pages and pages of ads for Citizen’s Band Radios and tape recorders. Don’t you realize electronic equipment is invading(涌入，侵入) our daily life ? Wherever you go you may hear loud music and advertisements over the radio; this continual noise is ruining our ears. Husbands don’t talk to wives any more; they are always watching the news or a ball game. Children ruin their eyes with endless hours of watching not only the programs for children but those for grown-ups as well. And what’s worse, hidden microphones find out about our private lives, and computer keep records of personal information about us. Enough is enough! I think you should limit the amount of advertising of electronic equipment in the Atlanta Journal. Otherwise it will make life unbearable for us all.

As Roger looked back on what had happened, it all seemed like a dream. He was sitting in the kitchen eating something on a Saturday afternoon. His mother was reading and his father was repairing the washing machine. Suddenly Roger heard his father calling out, “Donna! Roger! Help me.” Roger and his mother ran to the bathroom. He will never forget the feeling he had when he saw his father motionless(一动不动) on the floor. Roger froze for a second and then shouted to his mother to call an ambulance.
Roger immediately looked over his father, turned over his father’s body carefully, and listened for breathing. He heard nothing. Then he used artificial(人工的) breathing. But it didn’t work. At that time, Dick, Roger’s brother, arrived. Roger told him to take his father’s head and he tore his father’s shirt open and placed his hands on his father’s breast. Soon both boys were in action. “One-one thousand. Two-one thousand. Three-one thousand. Four-one thousand. Five-one thousand,” Roger said as Dick blew ,air into their father’s mouth . Just a few minutes later, the rescue team(救护队) arrived.
The boys learned later that their father had had a heart attack(心脏病). Their quick action saved him. The doctors said that heart attack patients could be saved if someone would do as Dick and Roger did within six minutes. This method is called CPR and it can keep a person alive even when breathing and heartbeat stop. It can provide the patients with “an artificial heart” before medical workers arrive.
Perhaps you may have a chance to learn CPR yourself. The American Red Cross and American. Heart Association offer classes to teach it to interested people. You may never have to use CPR. But if you do , it may be one of the most rewarding(有意义的) things you will ever do in your life.
