這十個「僞生存」技能,在野外玩的時候千萬別信!

這十個“偽生存”技能,在野外玩的時候千萬別信!

 在殘酷的大自然中生存下去不是件易事,如果有一天你不得不荒野求生,不要盲目相信所謂的“生存技能”,有一些甚至可能置你於死地。

▌Myth:

You can suck the venom out of a snakebite.

千萬別信:被蛇咬之後,可以用嘴吸出毒汁。

▌Fact:

If a bite delivers venom, it'll immediately enter the bloodstream. Putting your mouth on the bite will deliver extra bacteria to the wound and may simply get venom into your mouth and esophagus.

事實:如果被毒蛇咬了一口,毒汁就會立即滲入血液。用你的嘴去吸蛇咬處會讓傷口感染更多細菌,而且只會讓毒汁進入你的口腔和食道。

If someone gets bitten, try to keep the person's heart rate low and hold the affected limb below heart level while getting to a hospital.

如果有人被蛇咬了,在送醫的路上應盡力讓受傷者的心跳平靜下來,讓被咬的肢體低於心臟的位置。

▌Myth:

Always play dead when you are attacked by a bear.

千萬別信:被熊攻擊就裝死。

▌Fact:

If you are out in the woods and you see a bear, the general advice is to quietly back away. If it's in your yard or around your campsite, make yourself large and loud, which hopefully will scare it off.

事實:如果你在森林裡看到一頭熊,一般建議安靜地向後撤退。如果熊在你家院子或露營地周邊,裝出強大的樣子大聲喊叫也許能把它嚇走。

But in the case of an actual attack, your reaction strategy should depend on the bear and on the type of attack. Never play dead if a black bear attacks — always fight back.

如果熊真的要攻擊你,你的應對策略取決於哪一種熊以及熊所採取的攻擊方式。如果一頭黑熊攻擊你,永遠不要裝死,一定要奮起反擊。

In most cases, a brown or grizzly bear attacks to defend itself or its cubs. At these times it will warn you off by making noise and pretending to charge.

大多數情況下,棕熊或灰熊攻擊人類是為了自衛或保護它的幼崽。在這種時候,熊會通過發出聲音或假裝要進攻來把你嚇走。

Back away from a defensive attack slowly. If the bear makes contact, play dead lying on your stomach with your hands over your neck.

在自衛性攻擊前要慢慢地後退。如果這隻熊和你發生肢體接觸,你可以趴在地上裝死,把手放在脖子上。

But in the rare case of a predatory attack, which comes with no warning (or if the bear seems to be stalking you), fight for your life.

不過如果遇見了罕見的掠食性攻擊(這種攻擊是沒有警告的),或者當你發現熊在跟蹤你時,就要全力反擊。

▌Myth:

You need to find a food supply immediately if you are lost in the wilderness.

千萬別信:如果你在荒野中迷失,你需要立即找到食物來源。

▌Fact:

Not even close. You can survive up to six weeks without food. The exact amount of time might vary, depending on starting point and other health issues, but water and shelter from the elements are far more important.

事實:遠非如此。沒有食物你可以存活六週之久。存活的時間長短取決於你起初的身體狀況和其他健康因素,但水和遮風擋雨的住所比食物重要得多。

▌Myth:

The fluid in a cactus can save you from dying of thirst.

千萬別信:仙人掌的汁液可以讓你免於渴死。

▌Fact:

If you're experienced enough to pick out the one kind of barrel cactus that you can filter water from safely, this may work.

事實:如果你很有經驗,能夠挑出可安全過濾出水的桶形仙人掌,仙人掌的汁液也許有用。

But most of the time, cactus fluid will make you sick, causing you to vomit up precious liquid and leaving you more dehydrated.

但大多數情況下,仙人掌的汁液會讓你噁心和嘔吐,導致你失去體內寶貴的水分,從而讓你脫水更嚴重。

▌Myth:

Moss grows on the north side of a tree.

千萬別信:苔蘚生長在樹的北面。

▌Fact:

Moss can grow on all sides of a tree, depending on environmental conditions.Don't depend on this bit of folklore for navigation.

事實:苔蘚會在大樹的四面生長,取決於周圍的環境條件。不要靠這種謠傳來指導方向。

▌Myth:

If an animal eats something, it’s safe for you to eat it.

千萬別信:動物能吃的東西,你也能吃。

▌Fact:

Birds and squirrels can eat certain berries and mushrooms that would kill a person.

事實:鳥和松鼠能吃的一些漿果和蘑菇會讓人喪命。

7

▌Myth:

Rub someone's skin or put them in a hot tub to warm them up if they're freezing.

千萬別信:如果被凍傷,摩擦皮膚或者在熱水中浸泡可以緩解。

▌Fact:

Rubbing frostbitten skin can damage it even more, and hot water can be shocking or damaging for someone dealing with frostbite and hypothermia.

事實:摩擦生了凍瘡的皮膚反而會進一步損傷皮膚,對於受到凍傷或體溫過低的人來說,熱水會造成刺激,帶來傷害。

You need to warm someone back up slowly, preferably with blankets and some warm water bottles under their armpits.

這個時候要慢慢地幫助凍傷的人暖和過來,最好是蓋上毯子,把暖水袋放在腋窩之下。

▌Myth:

If a shark attacks you, punch it in the nose.

千萬別信:如果鯊魚攻擊你,就重擊它的鼻子。

▌Fact:

It's really hard to land a solid punch on the nose of a moving shark.

事實:想要打到移動中鯊魚的鼻子確實很難。

In the rare cases in which a shark comes in for a bite, try to put a solid object between you and animal. If that fails, claw at its eyes and gills.

萬一有鯊魚要咬你,設法在你和鯊魚之間放一塊固體,如果做不到,就抓鯊魚的眼睛和鰓。

▌Myth:

Always swim parallel to shore if you are caught in a rip current.

千萬別信:如果你被捲入激流,記住要沿著和海岸平行的方向遊動。

▌Fact:

A rip current is scary, but swimming directly parallel to shore works best if the current goes directly out to sea.

事實:激流很可怕,但如果激流將你直直地捲入海洋,你最好是和海岸平行遊動。

This isn't wrong, but it's good to know that many rip currents come in at an angle — your general idea should be to stay alongside the shore, but swim perpendicular to the current as much as you can "at an angle away from the current and towards the shore," according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Association.

這個做法沒有錯,但許多激流的方向都是和海岸成角度的,普遍想法是和海岸平行,但根據美國國家海洋和大氣管理局的建議,你應該盡力向和激流相垂直的方向游去,“在和激流成角度的情況下向海岸游去”。

It might be easier to swim one direction instead of the other. And don't tire yourself out too much; it shouldn't feel as if you are going upstream. If you can't swim out, tread water until you can.

可能朝一方向游去比向另一個方向更容易。不過不要讓自己的身體太疲勞,你不應該有逆流而上的感覺。如果你遊不出去,就一直踩水直到你能游出去。

▌Myth:

A lean-to is a great shelter.

千萬別信:坡屋是絕佳的庇護所。

▌Fact:

The right shelter depends on surrounding conditions. In high heat you need shade, but in cooler climates, staying warm is a priority.

事實:找什麼地方容身取決於周圍的環境。在高溫下你需要陰涼處,但在寒冷天氣裡,保暖是要優先考慮的。

This means protecting yourself from wind, but it also means building up a layer to insulate you from the cool ground at night. A lean-to might help protect you from wind and the elements, but may not be enough to provide warmth.

這意味著你要找一個防風的處所,也意味著你要多蓋一層來讓自己在夜裡免受地表寒氣入侵。坡屋也許能防風和抵禦惡劣天氣,但可能不足以保暖。

有沒有一個方法能夠讓大家輕鬆破解英語句式問題呢?有的,比如能動英語的“句式魔方”課程。

“句式魔方”幫助孩子突破英語學習中的第二難關——單詞詞義、短語積累與生成、句子生成轉換能力。

通過學習“句式魔方”,孩子最終能形成語感,內化成語言本能,熟練生成各種句子。

沒有學習“句式魔方”的孩子,要麼只能機械的用各種單詞按照漢語習慣,生成各種中式英語句子,要麼就是不得不花費大量的精力背誦各種語法規則,亦步亦趨的按照這些規則生成句子,很可能被各種語法細碎知識點搞得頭昏腦漲而喪失學習興趣。而學習了“句式魔方”的孩子,通過“句式魔方”的短語矩陣訓練,不但能熟練的生成各種短語,並在訓練的過程中,增加了語感,還能再具體的語境中自然習得單詞含義,同時“句式魔方”通過其核心句的生成以及其它五種基本句式推導轉換的練習,讓孩子熟練掌握各種句式和常用時態的變化,最終獲得句子生成能力。

學完“句式魔方”,一方面有了具體語境後,孩子就知道了單詞意義,再結合已習得的“表音密碼”基礎,孩子就可將單詞的“音”、“形”、“意”對應起來,徹底解決單詞問題;另一方面,孩子可掌握短語與句子的生成機制,以及應對各種時態與句式的轉換問題,來輕鬆自主的生成各種句子,掌握應用!
