Spiders, snakes and wild neighbours, sentence 2
For any snake bite you call the emergency number and keep the person calm and still, because moving spreads the venom faster; sucking or cutting the bite does not work and causes harm.
Who acts: you, sucking · What happens: call, keep, move, spread, suck, cut · To what, where: emergency number, person, venom, bite, harm · Speech: someone speaks here
