Answer the questions (根据短文内容回答下列问题)
In the city center, firefighters quickly get ready when they hear the alarm. Within 60 seconds they are dressed
第7页/共9页
学科网(北京)股份有限公司and rushing to a burning building. Even though they know the floors might collapse and the ceilings could fall, they
still have to go inside. One wrong decision might mean death.
Who would do a job like that? Ask firefighter Sam Telfer. One month ago, he signed up for the job. He used to
sit in an office of a software company, but now he is trained to break into rooms full of smoke and heat and come up
with a rescue strategy.
“I wanted a job where I could be active, work with my hands, learn new practical skills, and face different
challenges every day,” That’s quite an understatement (保守说法) to describe a career that requires you to keep a
cool head while fighting against a fire. But Telfer says that flames (火焰) and nerves can be controlled in the same
way: through continuous physical and mental training.
Telfer was a runner in college, but now he trains his lungs for dangerous situations instead of races. He has to
climb hundreds of steps while wearing 34 kilograms of gear, like oxygen tanks. He also needs to carry unconscious
people to safety. No matter what he’s doing, he has to control his breathing. Panic (恐慌) will only waste his limited air
supply.
His survival depends on more than just being physically fit. Firefighters need a lot of mental preparation too.
When they are not dealing with emergencies, they study many subjects like emergency medicine, structural design,
and chemical reactions. They practice quickly assessing (评估) the changing conditions of a fire.
Shifting from a software expert to a first responder was a big change for Telfer. But he says, “I have never once
felt that this isn’t the right job for me.” Even though danger might be waiting every day, his body and mind are trained
to stay calm, even in the middle of a fierce fire.
58. Firefighters have to get ready within sixty seconds after hearing the alarm, don’t they?
_______________________________________
59. When did Sam Telfer become a firefighter?
_______________________________________
60. Where did Telfer work before becoming a firefighter?

61. What physical training does a firefighter take? Give an example.

63 Does Sam Telfer love the job as a firefighter? Give your reason.
