It may save a life. In many emergencies, first aid may prevent a victim's condition from turning worse and provide relief from pain. First aid must be administered as quickly as possible. In the case of the critically injured, a few minutes can make a difference.Firstaid measures depend upon the victim's needs and the provider's level of knowledge and skill. Knowing what not to do in an emergency is as important as knowing what to do. Improperly moving a person with a neck injury, for example, can lead to permanent spinal (脊柱的) injury and paralysis (瘫痪)．Despite the variety of injuries, several principles of first aid can apply to all emergencies. The first step is to call for professional medical help. The victim, if conscious, should be reassured that medical aid has been requested, and asked for permission to provide any first aid. Next, assess the scene, asking people around or the injured person's family or friends about details of the injury or illness, any care that may have already been given, and preexisting conditions such as diabetes (糖尿病) or heart trouble. The victim should be checked for a medical card that describes special medical conditions. Unless the accident scene becomes unsafe or the victim may suffer further injury, do not move the victim.First aid requires rapid assessment of victims to determine whether lifethreatening conditions exist. One method for evaluating a victim's condition is known as the acronym (首字母缩略词) ABC, which stands for：A—Airway: Is it open and clear?B—Breathing: Is the person breathing? Look, listen and feel for breathing.C—Circulation: Is there a pulse? Is the person bleeding externally? Checkskin color and temperature for additional indications of circulation problems.语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。
麦田怪圈
白光
英国牛津郡近日发现一个长达183米的巨型麦田怪圈，
呈水母形状，其完美的造型令人惊叹。
2010年6 月21日出 现在英国 威尔特郡 的麦田圈 内含了黄 金分割比 例内圈是 黄金分割 比例的数 字 1.061803 399 英国特斯伯里麦田里又出现了一 个类似“凤凰涅磐”状的麦田怪 圈。专家认为这个最新发现可能 和玛雅预言有联系（英国每日电 讯网站截图）
说法四:有人恶作剧 这也是流传较为广泛的说法。相当一部分人认为，所谓 麦田怪圈只是某些人的恶作剧。英国科学家安德鲁经过长达 17年的调查研究认为，麦田怪圈有80%属于人为制造。 麦田怪圈是种行为艺术
这些人为何要制造麦田怪圈呢？ 多年以来，那些怪圈制 造者对超感觉都有兴趣，他们合作从事广泛的计划，包括美 术和摄影。他们渐渐由传统艺术家变为隐蔽艺术家，合伙去 制造麦田怪圈，因为他们认为，麦田圈的美是一种行为艺术 的表达。
这到底是人类的杰作？？
超自然的力量？？ 还是。。。 外星人要传递给我们某种信息呢？？？？
(1) 圆圈多数形成于晚上，通常是子夜至凌晨四时，形成速度 惊人。麦田附近找不到任何人、动物或机械留下的痕迹， 没人亲眼目睹到圆圈图案的产生过程。动物远离现场，麦 田圈出现前举止失常。 (2) 在麦田圈附近常出现不明亮点或异常声响。 (3) 图形以绝对精确的计算绘画, 常套用极复杂的几何图形, 或进 行黄金分割。最大跨度的麦田圈达180多米，比足球场还大。 最复杂的麦田圆圈共有400多个圆，被称为“麦田圈之母” 麦田圈之母 (4) 农作物依一定方向倾倒，成规则状的螺旋或直线状，有时分 层编织，最多可达五层，但每棵作物仍像精致安排一般秩 序井然。 (5) 秆身加粗并向外延伸, 秆内有小洞, 胚芽变形，与人折断或踩 到的麦子明显不同。 (6) 麦秆弯曲位置的炭分子结构受电磁场影向而异常，但竟然能 继续正常生长。生长的速度比没有压倒的小麦快。开花期 的作物如果形成麦田圈，不会结种子。成熟期的麦子形成 的麦田圈，会因发生变异而使果实变小。 (7) 圈内像烘干的泥土内含有非天然放射性同位数的微量辐射， 辐射增强三倍。 (8) 麦田圈中的土壤里有许多磁性小粒多为10~50微米直径的磁 性微粒，而且只有在显微镜下才能看到。 (9) 图形内外的红外线增强。 (10) 大多在地球磁场能量带出现。电磁场减弱，指南针，电话， 电池，相机，汽车甚至发电站失常。

世界未解之谜(Crop circle)
• 百慕大三角，又称魔鬼三角或丧命地狱，位于北大西洋的马尾
藻海，是由英属百慕大群岛、美属波多黎各及美国佛罗里达州南端所 形成的三角区海域，据称经常发生超自然现象及违反物理定律的事件， 面积约390万平方公里（150万平方英里）。
·
百慕大三角 伸到佛罗里达州南部的迈阿密，然后通过巴哈马群岛，穿过波多 黎各，到西经40°线附近的圣胡安，再折回百慕大，形成的一个三角 地区，称为百慕大三角区或“魔鬼三角”。在这个地区，已有数以百 计的船只和飞机失事，数以千计的人在此丧生。从1880到1976年间， 约有158次失踪事件，其中大多是发生在1949年以来的30年间，曾发 生失踪97次，至少有2000人在此丧生或失踪。这些奇怪神秘的失踪事 件，主要是在西大西洋的一片叫“马尾藻海”地区，为北纬20°40°、西经35°-75°之间的宽广水域。这儿有世界著名的墨西哥暖 流以每昼夜120-190千米流过，且多漩涡、台风和龙卷风。不仅如此， 这儿海深达4000-5000米，有波多黎各海沟，深7000米以上，最深达 9218米。
• UFO全称为不明飞行物，也称飞碟（unidentified
flying object，简称UFO）是指不明来历、不明空间、不 明结构、不明性质，但又漂浮、飞行在空中的物体。一些 人相信它是来自其他行星的太空船，有些人则认为UFO属 于自然现象。20世纪40年代开始，美国上空发现碟状飞 行物，当时称为“飞碟，这是当代对不明飞行物的兴趣的 开端，后来人们着眼于世界各地的不明飞行物报告，但至 今尚未发现确实可信的证据。许多不明飞行物照片经专家 鉴定为骗局，有的则被认为是球状闪电，但始终有部分发 现根据现存科学知识无法解释。
• • 此外，还有一些巨大的图案在地面上，如：猴子、蜘蛛、蜂鸟等。 令人们费解的是，为什么要绘制如此庞大比例的图形，这些图形只有 从空中才能进行观看。它们有什么重大意义呢？一些人认为它们与天 文学有关，还有人将这些图案与宗教仪式联系在一起。目前，最新的 观点认为这些图案指示着宝贵的水源。但事实上，以上的观点都没有 确切的依据，迄今没有人真正揭晓其中的谜团。
Crop Circles
Crop CirclesFrom Wikipedia, the free encyclopediaA crop circle in Switzerland.A crop circle is a sizable pattern created by the flattening of a crop such as wheat, barley, rye, maize, or rapeseed. Crop circles are also referred to as crop formations, because they are not always circular in shape. While the exact date crop circles began to appear is unknown, the documented cases have substantially increased from the 1970s to current times. Twenty-six countries ended up reporting approximately ten-thousand crop circles, in the last third of the 20th century, and 90% of those were located in southern England.[1] Many of the formations appearing in that area are positioned near ancient monuments, such as Stonehenge. Formations usually are made overnight, but have also been made during the day. The most widely known method for a person or group to construct a crop formation is to tie one end of a rope to an anchor point, and the other end to a board which is used to crush the plants. More recent methods include the use of a lawn roller.Some crop formations are paid for by companies who use them as advertising.[2] Other formations are sometimes claimed by individuals or groups without any evidence to support their assertion, usually after undesirable legal repercussions become unlikely.History1678 pamphlet on the "Mowing-Devil".Certain evidence, such as the Mowing-Devil, suggest the appearance of crop circles well before the 20th century. Nevertheless, there are important differences between that story and modern crop circles. The story of the mowing devil involves the cutting of the crops following a dispute over crop harvesting and an invocation of the devil, no geometric patterns were reported. Bower and ChorleyIn 1991, self-professed pranksters Doug Bower and Dave Chorley stated that they had started the phenomenon in 1978 by making actual circles on crops with the use of simple tools.[3] After their announcement, in a demonstration the two men made a crop circle in one hour.After the reveal of the hoax, crop circle-like patterns continued to be made and became more complex. Some even came to resemble stereotypical extraterrestrials as portrayed by science fiction movies, fractals, and archaeological, religious, or mythological symbols. Among others, paranormal enthusiasts, ufologists, and anomalistic investigators have offered arousing yet hypothetical explanations that have been criticized as pseudoscientific by skeptical groups like the Committee for Skeptical Inquiry.[4][5][6][7]Art and businessAerial view of crop circle in Diessenhofen, July 2008Since the early 1990s the UK arts collective founded by artist John Lundberg, named the Circlemakers, have been creating some crop circles in the UK and around the world both as part of their art practice and for commercial clients.On the night of July 11–12, 1992, a crop-circle making competition, for a prize of several thousand UK pounds (partly funded by the Arthur Koestler Foundation), was held in Berkshire.The winning entry was produced by three Westland Helicopters engineers, using rope, PVC pipe, a trestle and a ladder. Another competitor used a small garden roller, a plank and some rope.In 2002, Discovery Channel commissioned five aeronautics and astronautics graduate students from MIT to create crop circles of their own, aiming to duplicate some of the features claimed to distinguish "real" crop circles from the known fakes such as those created by Bower and Chorley. The creation of the circle was recorded and used in the Discovery Channel documentary Crop Circles: Mysteries in the Fields.[8]Legal implicationsIn 1992 Hungarian youths Gábor Takács and Róbert Dallos, both then 17, were the first people to face legal action after creating a crop ci rcle. Takács and Dallos, of the St. Stephen Agricultural Technicum, a high school in Hungary specializing in agriculture, created a 36-meter diameter crop circle in a wheat field near Székesfehérvár, 43 miles (69 km) southwest of Budapest, on June 8, 1992. On September 3, the pair appeared on Hungarian TV and exposed the circle as a hoax, showing photos of the field before and after the circle was made. As a result, Aranykalász Co., the owners of the land, sued the youngsters for 630,000 HUF (approximately $3000 USD) in damages. The presiding judge ruled that the students were only responsible for the damage caused in the 36-meter diameter circle, amounting to about 6,000 HUF (approximately $30 USD), and that 99% of the damage to the crops was caused by the thousands of visitors who flocked to Székesfehérvár following the media's promotion of the circle. The fine was eventually paid by the TV show, as were the students' legal fees.[citation needed]In 2000, Matthew Williams became the first man in the UK to be arrested for causing criminal damage after making a crop circle near Devizes.[9]Other explanationsWeatherSome people have suggested that crop circles are the result of extraordinary meteorological phenomena. This hypothesis probably originated from a 1880 publication in Nature by investigator and amateur scientist John Rand Capron. Part of the publication reappeared in the January 2000 issue of Journal of Meteorology:[10][11]“The storms about this part of Western Surrey have been lately local and violent, and the effects produced in some instances curious. Visiting a neighbour's farm on Wednesday evening (21st), we found a field of standing wheat considerably knocked about, not as an entirety, but in patches forming, as viewed from a distance, circular spots... I could nottrace locally any circumstances accounting for the peculiar forms of the patches in thefield, nor indicating whether it was wind or rain, or both combined, which had causedthem, beyond the general evidence everywhere of heavy rainfall. They were suggestive to me of some cyclonic wind action...”ParanormalA crop circle in the form of a triskelionA 780 ft crop circle in the form of a double (six-sided) triskelion composed of 409 circles. Location: Milk Hill (England), 2001Since appearing in the media in the 1970s, crop circles have become the subject of speculation by various paranormal, ufological, and anomalistic investigators ranging from proposals that they were created by bizarre meteorological phenomena to messages fromextraterrestrials.[12][13][14][15]The location of many crop circles near ancient sites such as Stonehenge, barrows, and chalk horses has led many New Age belief systems to incorporate crop circles, speculating their existence in relation to ley lines.[12][16][17]Some New Age supporters have arbitrarily related crop circles to the Gaia hypothesis, alleging that "Gaia", the earth, is actually alive and that crop circles are messages or responses to stimuli such as global warming and human pollution. It asserts that the earth may be modeled as if a single super-organism, in that earthly components (e.g. biota, climate, temperature, sunlight, etc.) influence each other and are organized to function and develop as a whole.[18]The main criticism of alleged non-human creation of crop circles is that while evidence of these origins, besides eyewitness testimonies, is essentially absent, some are definitely known to bethe work of human pranksters and others can be adequately explained as such. There have been cases in which researchers declared crop circles to be "the real thing", only to be confronted with the people who created the circle and documented the fraud (see above).[19] In his 1997 book The Demon-Haunted World: Science as a Candle in the Dark, Carl Sagan discussed alien-based theories of crop circle formation. Sagan concluded that no empirical evidence existed to link UFOs with crop circles. [20] Many others have demonstrated how complex crop circles can be created.[21][22]Scientific American published an article by Matt Ridley,[23] who started making crop circles in northern England in 1991. He wrote about how easy it is to develop techniques using simple tools that can easily fool later observers. He reported on "expert" sources such as the Wall Street Journal who had been easily fooled and mused about why people want to believe supernatural explanations for phenomena that are not yet explained. Methods to create a crop circle are now well documented on the internet.[21]References1.^Secrets in the Fields by Freddy Silva2.^Professional crop circle creation team3.^ Crop Circle Confession; August 2002; Scientific American Magazine; by Matt Ridley4.^"Levengood’s Crop-Circle Plant Research". 1996-06./sb/show/levengoods_crop-circle_plant_research.5.^ 6.^ Levengood.

Crop circle phenomenon began to attract public attention in the 1970s. There are numerous crop circle case came to light others or themselves as someone deliberately created for fun or to attract tourists. Only crop circles in crops "Ride collapse" scorch marks and the way the plant stem nodes not flatten human can do, there are MIT students trying to reverse with a homemade device to replicate this phenomenon, but still could not reach, still does not explain this phenomenon is what device or practice can be achieved. This point is also supported by the main evidence on the basis of the alien presence. The scientific community on how to form crop circles has been controversial, to say the main magnetic field, the tornado that extraterrestrial manufacture that heresy that speaks five artificial interpretation, where the fifth argument is sprCLUSION
Still unable to explain the origin of crop circles, mysterious force, aliens, no one can give an answer, only the mystery of the progress of science can solve them
