    Yes, but with caution
    Casseopeia(Thailand): I think you should trust your intuition. Different situations will call for different reactions. Maybe if you are afraid of being scammed, you can bring a few witnesses with you—get about four or five people together around you and go to help the person together.
    DSseeing(the US): If the situation is physically violent or it seems that it might become so, be cautious when you are involved. If you don’t feel safe to lend a hand, even standing nearby and making it clear that you are watching and are a witness to what is happening can help. If you’re concerned for the victim’s immediate safety, stay back and call 911.
    Gabrielleleilei(India): Helping others may sometimes bring us trouble or even put us in danger. So when we are helping others, we should also protect ourselves and offer our help in an appropriate way. For example, to help someone who was robbed of, calling the police is a much wiser way than chasing after the robber alone.
    Yes, certainly
    BlondeAmber(Canada): My instinct is to go and help: I am first aid trained. At home I have done this and there have been no problems. In China I would think twice unless I was with a friend who filmed everything should I be accused of causing the accident, I would certainly call an ambulance, although I would probably be charged for it.
    Jarek(Belgium): In Belgium by law you are obliged to help people in distress. The only time you are free from helping is in case you will put your own life at risk by helping someone else, otherwise you can get fined for not helping.
    Anboyce88(the UK): I have seen an old fellow fall down in the cold winter in Harbin. I couldn’t get him up on my own(he was a big guy) and I screamed at the passers-by who took out their phones to take videos of "a white boy helping an old Chinese man". First time I swore at the Chinese. After a good bit of abuse from me, I persuaded them into helping me. Afterwards they all started telling me I shouldn’t be helping random strangers as he could be a con artist, then I replied: He could just be an old man who fell down in the winter, couldn’t get up on his own and died. I will take the risk.
    Foreignchinese(Malaysia): It happens but not all the time. I once helped a guy groaning in pain underneath his bike. He crashed under the rear of a taxi. The driver went off and the bike guy was left alone in the middle of the street. Two weeks’ later, he wanted to thank me for my assistance. I had already gone home.
    Definitely no
    MsLong(the US): Why would I do that? How do I know if he is injured because of gang violence or what so ever? If I don’t know him then I don’t care about him. The most I would do is to call the police for suspicion. He/ She got himself/herself injured. Nobody hurts him/her for no reason.

答案                     Would You Help an Injured Stranger?
    There has been a heated discussion among people on whether we should help an injured stranger lying on the ground in pain or bleeding. What do people think when they choose to help him or not? Different people hold different views.
    Very few say they will definitely not help strangers for fear of being scammed or getting involved in gang violence, while more people advocate for helping with caution. In case they plunge themselves into trouble, the latter group claim that they will assess the situation first and then decide what to do next. For example, they will not reach their hands unless there are witnesses standing by. However, we might feel released and comforting to hear that more people say they will lend a hand with no hesitation.
    Based on meticulous consideration, I personally hold the contention that we should never pass up an opportunity to save a life. First and foremost, kindness is its own rewards. Suppose the injured is someone related to you, your parents or siblings, wouldn’t you expect a passer-by to stop and lend a hand? Second, it is everyone’s duty to reestablish the moral system of the society. We may not be able to eliminate all the skeptics, but those who bear empathy in mind should at least do unto others as you would have them do unto you. At last, when the moral system doesn’t work itself, there should be a law in force, as in Belgium. The law should be implemented to protect those who offer help and to punish those who stand by.
    Therefore, joint efforts from individuals, the whole society and the authorities are needed to rebuild the trust system among people, which is more urgent in China. Everyone counts and every tiny effort counts in building up a harmonious society.
