单选题 When do most child poisonings happen?
【正确答案】 D
【答案解析】[听力原文] 17-20
Poisoning that causes death happens most of the time to children between the ages of one and three. Some doctors call this stage the Age of Accidents. Children want to look at things and taste them. They will eat or drink anything they can find, even if it tastes bad. You must make your home safe for children and protect them from poisoning.
Here are three things you can do. One, know which things around the home are poisons. Two, keep poisons out of your child's reach at all time. Three, be aware of how clever children are when it comes to finding poisons.
Nearly all chemicals and drugs in the home contain things that can poison someone. Be sure to read the labels on products you bring into home. Look for the words which are meant as warnings. These warnings will read Poison, Harmful If Swallowed, For External Use Only, and Keep out of Reach of children. Look around your home for bottles and jars which bear these warnings. Then, rut them away in a place where a child cannot reach or find them.
You should know that you can not always rely on the label on a product to give you the proper warning. There are things such as nail polish, perfume, makeup, hair tonic, and others that give you no clue to the dangers that might result from swallowing. Drinks with alcohol, such as gin, whiskey, beer, and wine, do not carry warnings. These, too, can cause your child harm. You cannot know which of the hundreds of items are really dangerous. Therefore, your best line of defense is to suspect everything that is not a known and healthy food item.
If your child show signs of poisoning, call your doctor right away.
