题目解答
答案
A. The suit must, without assistance, turn an unconscious person's mouth clear of the water within 5 seconds.
解析
本题考查对浸水服相关知识的了解,解题思路是对每个选项所描述的浸水服特性进行分析,判断其是否符合实际情况。
- 选项A:
- 浸水服的一个重要功能就是在人员失去意识时,能够自动将其面部转出水面,保证呼吸。通常要求在无辅助的情况下,在5秒内将失去意识的人的嘴部露出水面,这是浸水服的基本安全性能要求,所以该选项描述正确。
- 选项B:
- 浸水服确实能密封身体热量,起到一定的保暖作用,防止体温过低。但它并不能提供数周的保护,一般浸水服在正常情况下能提供一定时间(如数小时)的保暖,但远远达不到数周,所以该选项描述错误。
- 选项C:
- 浸水服虽然有一定的防火性能,但通常只能在短时间(如几分钟)内抵抗火焰和燃烧,26分钟的暴露时间过长,浸水服在这么长时间的火焰和燃烧下会被严重损坏,失去其功能,所以该选项描述错误。
- 选项D:
- 并不是所有浸水服的衣领都需要在弃船前充气,不同类型的浸水服有不同的设计和使用方法,有些浸水服的衣领充气是在特定情况下(如需要额外浮力时)才进行操作,并非弃船前的必要步骤,所以该选项描述错误。
