Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
Mike Godwin is an American lawyer and author who invented “Godwin's Law” in 1990 when he made the following statement：
As an online discussion grows longer, a comparison involving Nazis or Hitler is very likely to be made.
Godwin's Law is applicable to online discussions in forums, chat rooms, and on blogs. The term has earned a place in the Oxford English Dictionary：
Godwin's Law: noun. A facetious aphorism(有趣的格言) maintaining that as an online debate increases in length, it becomes certain that someone will eventually compare someone or something to Adolf Hitler or the Nazis.
Although __coined__ to describe an Internet phenomenon, the term is being applied to the use of “the Nazi card” in other contexts.
A complaint by many forum users is that the so-called law is ending discussion. One makes a Nazi comparison and another cries, “You said Hitler, so I win！” At that point, the discussion ends. The term has created a verb, “to Godwin，” as in, “You Godwined this discussion！”
The mention of Godwin's Law has come to be seen as a way to end an online discussion. Here is a complaint voiced by a forum user：
It seems like Godwin's Law is becoming a real problem for any sort of discussion on the internet. Whenever Hitler, or Nazis, is brought up in a discussion, the discussion is then over and the poster who mentioned the subject is laughed at. This would be a problem if people mention Godwin's Law when the Hitler/Nazi mention is relevant to the topic at hand.

B．A way of complaint.

(2018·辽宁五校高三模拟)Shortness of breath has many different causes, and the treatment of it is specific for each cause.
4．__________ There are, however, some following first aid steps you can use to treat it, at least until the ambulance arrives or you're able to get the victim to a hospital.
5．__________ The more energy you spend, the more oxygen you use and the more short of breath you feel. Think about a good workout at the gym. Exercise hard enough and you will feel short of breath. The cure? Take a break.
Let the victim sit, stand or lie where's the most comfortable. There're lots of myths about how some body positions supposedly provide more airflow. Coaches regularly tell players to hold their arms above their heads to maximize chest expansion. Nursing staff assume the “tripod position” is the best position.
6．__________
Use oxygen. This is a special case used only for people with chronic lung problems. If the victim has oxygen available, this is what it's for.

7．__________ The victim may have been told by his or her doctor that too much oxygen for too long might cause more problems. Assure the victim that sudden increases in shortness of breath are the instances in which oxygen is needed most.
Treat the cause of shortness of breath.
8．__________ Asthma patients, for example, often have multiple tools and drugs to fix sudden shortness of breath. Victims of lung infections may need to see a doctor and heart attack victims may need an ambulance.

B．Take more exercise at the gym.
C．The victim should use his or her oxygen as directed by a doctor.
D．There're many causes of shortness of breath and many of them are treatable. E．The victim can try to avoid making use of his or her oxygen whenever possible. F．Every person is different, however, so let the victim decide what position is the most comfortable.
G．In many cases, the only way to treat shortness of breath is to call 911 or take the victim to a doctor.
