Got the answers from 2nd blank.

"effects" is the main clue here. A person attempts something only to counter the effects of something. Hence, counter is the correct choice here.

Now if someone counters the effect, then definitely he would diagnose (to identify the nature of something) the problem, not detect (discover) the problem. Since, the sentence is related to science, the context would make more sense from diagnose. Cure is out of scope.

Hence, C and E.

Even if I was a doctor or not what happens when someone passed out ??

I do not attempt to diagnose what is going on, but my first thought is to try to reanimate it and not lose his /her life, countering or contrasting what is happening

C and E are the answer

Always try to personalize and make yours the argument at stake
