跟踪导练（一）
阅读理解
As Norwood and her four friends drove near a crossroads， another car T-boned them， sending their car sailing into the yard of a nearby home， coming to a stop only when it crashed into a tree.
As smoke rose from the other car， someone shouted， “It’s about to blow up！ Get out！” Norwood crawled out through the window. Along with two of her friends， who’d also managed to free themselves， she ran for her life.
But halfway down the street， she realized that her best friend， A’zarria Simmons， wasn’t with them. Norwood ran back to the car and found that Simmons fainted in the back seat and wasn’t moving. She opened the back door and pulled her friend out. She dragged Simmons a few feet to safety and laid her on the ground. “I checked her pulse.” Nothing. “I put my head against her chest.” No sign of life. “That’s when I started CPR （心肺复苏术）.”
Amazingly， Norwood had just earned her CPR certificate （证书） the day before. Kneeling on the ground and looking down at her dying friend， Norwood knew she had precious little time to practice what she’d learned. She started pressing Simmons’s chest and breathing into her friend’s mouth in hopes of filling her lungs with the kiss of life. No response. And then， after the 30th compression （按压）， Simmons began coughing and gasping for air. The CPR had worked！
