Section Ⅳ Reading Comprehension
(Time—30 minutes)
Directions:
Read the following 4 passages. Answer the questions on each text by choosing [A], [B], [C] or [D]. Mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet.
Passage A
The reason you're there as a children's nurse is because children are not just mini adults: their bodies (and minds) work in different ways. The onset of symptoms can be sudden and extreme. Because children are still growing, the impact of the illness or injury on their development has to be taken into account. And because they are young, they may be more scared or confused by what is happening to them. That's why they need pediatric nurses who understand their particular needs.
Children have parents and brothers and sisters who are all involved in different ways. Children's nurses work closely with patient's families as part of the caring process. One of the most striking features of pediatric nursing is how often you share your nursing skills with others: the child's parents or whoever would normally look after them at home. Your job is to give the child's carers the confidence and ability to carry on with their caring role, knowing when to stand back and when to take-over if necessary. It requires a special set of attitudes and open mindedness to people's different ways of relating to their children.
Pediatric nursing can sometimes involve managing distress. A rich mix of emotions often surrounds child illness such as panic anxiety, anger, powerlessness, and guilt. You'll play a key part in helping families come through their crisis.(226ws)
