Several dead after woman fought with driver, causing bus to fall in China river. By the Associated Press, Friday, November 2nd, 2018 |
BEIJING (AP）--A fight between a bus driver and a woman passenger who missed her stop caused the bus to fall off a high bridge into China's Yangtze River. Wanzhou police said the 48-year old woman passenger asked the driver to stop after she missed her stop, but the driver didn't. She walked up to the driver's seat and talked angrily with him. The driver turned his head several times to talk angrily. Some of people tried to stop them, but it didn't work. The woman strongly hit the driver on the head with her mobile phone. The driver took his right arm off the steering wheel（方向盘）and fought back, then quickly turned to the left, making the bus out of control. Thirteen people, including the two drivers died at once. Another two died on the way to hospital. The doctors rushed to the place at the news of the accident. By 5 a.m., all of the injured（伤者）were sent to three local hospitals for treatment. A hospital said most of the patients were in a good condition, but a few were still in danger. Because of the icy roads, the highway was closed by police sine Tuesday morning. But the bus driver chose the dangerous road, paying no attention to the warnings. According to a 2009 national public survey, traffic accidents were considered as people's third biggest problem. However, many people still die and hurt because of traffic accident today. From these accidents, we must learn a lesson: obey public rules in order to reduce the danger from accidents. |

It is said that more than four million people die each year from smoking. That number is increasing. Seven in ten of those deaths are in developing countries. These numbers are frightening（令人恐惧的）.
Yet people around the world continue to smoke. The Great American Smokeout has been founded for twenty-five years to show the dangers of smoking and provide support for people who decide to stop smoking. The American Cancer Society says all cigarettes damage the body. It warns that smoking even a small number of cigarettes is dangerous. It is not easy to give up smoking forever. However, doctors say they probably will live longer if they do stop smoking. They will feel better and look better. They also will protect the health of family members who breathe their smoke.
The American Cancer Society says there is not just one right way to stop smoking. Any useful way to stop smoking is worth tying. They may take long walks or spend time in places where smoking is not allowed. Also, they could eat a small piece of fruit instead of having a cigarette.
The American Cancer Society says the sooner smokers stop smoking, the more they can reduce their risks of getting cancer and other diseases. It says blood pressure（血压）returns to normal twenty minutes after smoking the last cigarette. Carbon monoxide（一氧化碳）gas levels in the blood return to normal after eight hours. After one day, the risk of heart attack reduces. After one year, the risk of heart disease for a non-smoker is half that of a smoker.
