1 On Sept. 29， bus driver Raquel RadfordBakerbeganher shift just like any other people. She was filling in for anotherbus driver that day. But as it turned out， she was in theright place at the right time.

2 Radford?Baker was about to drop off students atSeagoville North Elementary School when somethingwent wrong and all of it was caught on surveillance video（監(jiān)控錄像）. Video from inside the bus showed 7yearoldPreston Bell put something in his mouth. Moments later， hedropped down between the seats before heading toward his bus driver.

3“ He mentioned something about a penny and I immediately said，‘ Penny？ I justgrabbed him， and ran down the bus with him. On my way to the sidewalk， I was actuallyperforming the Heimlich maneuver，” RadfordBakerexplained.“ The whole entire time Imsaying，‘ Baby， breathe. I got you. Breathe，” she continued. He was limp and blue in theface. That is when RadfordBakerspotted a parent and asked her to call 911.

4 RadfordBakersaid she had never performed the Heimlich maneuver before， but inthat moment—her training kicked in.“ I was nervous at the time. But I just couldn't panic，”she said.“ All I said to myself was，‘ Help me. Help me save this baby.” She didn't evenrealize when a quarter flew out of Preston's mouth.

5 The lady said，“ Ma'am， there's a quarter there， and I'm still in shock because I'mstill trying to work with him and he stepped to the side and said，‘ Miss RadfordBaker，I'm?OK. I can breathe，” RadfordBakerrecalled.“ It was a powerful relief for me because Ijust couldn't believe that I just reversed （徹底改變） this whole thing that could have re?ally gone wrong.”

6“ I'm still in shock. I really can't believe that this actually happened，” said RadfordBaker.“I didn't really realize what a big impact I had.” She doesn't know how she got thecourage to do what she did that day， but she knows，“ I feel like some powerful force placedme there for a reason... I mean， if I wasn't there， I didn't know what the other driver mayhave done.”

語(yǔ)言學(xué)習(xí)

Ⅰ. 語(yǔ)料薈萃

Ⅱ. 語(yǔ)句分析

1. RadfordBakerwas about to drop off students at Seagoville North ElementarySchool when something went wrong and all of it was caught on surveillance video. 雷德福貝克正要把學(xué)生送到北西格威爾小學(xué)下車，突然出現(xiàn)了問題，并且事件的全過程都被監(jiān)控錄像拍了下來(lái)。

【點(diǎn)石成金】本句是一個(gè)并列句。第一個(gè)分句中使用了be about to do sth when...句式，意為“正要做某事，突然……”，其中的when是并列連詞，相當(dāng)于just at that time。

2. It was a powerful relief for me because I just could't believe that I just reversed thiswhole thing that could have really gone wrong. 這對(duì)我來(lái)說(shuō)是一個(gè)巨大的安慰，因?yàn)槲液?jiǎn)直不敢相信我剛剛扭轉(zhuǎn)了這整件事情，不然可能真的會(huì)出現(xiàn)問題。

【點(diǎn)石成金】本句是一個(gè)主從復(fù)合句。It was a powerful relief是主句，because引導(dǎo)原因狀語(yǔ)從句，第一個(gè)that引導(dǎo)賓語(yǔ)從句，第二個(gè)that引導(dǎo)限制性定語(yǔ)從句。
