Blood donation is a very important activity. It is an easy and direct way to contribute to social work and helps the community. It helps to save lives and helps those who are in need of blood because of the heavy loss of blood during operations or in accidents. You can always be proud of it after making valuable contributions to society.
Blood donation is not a big problem, but you need to keep a few points in mind.
Before donating blood, make sure that the ferrum(铁) level in your body is high enough and for that you should take a healthy diet. Do not go for blood donation on an empty stomach. After having a balanced diet, you will feel strong and comfortable to donate blood.
For required hemoglobin(血红蛋白) in your body, drink lots of juice and other drinks. Fruit juice, such as apple juice is very good for increasing the blood level in your body.
For a good blood flow in your body, drink at least 6-7 glasses of water every day. Don’t take alcohol(酒) a day before and after giving blood. Do not smoke half an hour before giving blood.
When you are going for blood donation, be relaxed, which helps keep the right blood pressure. During the blood donation activity, take a deep breath and try to calm yourself. Don’t join in some other activities.
You need to take care of yourself after donating blood. Take a rest for 15 minutes after completion of the donation. It helps you to feel relaxed. Make sure that you have meals after donating blood. Smoking should be avoided for one hour after the process. Don’t join in some activities right away, for example, driving.

Perhaps you have seen some strange English before, like “big meter” for dami and “small buy” for xiaomaibu in Chinese. These are examples of incorrect translations (翻译) in China that can be seen everywhere from restaurant menus to information signs.
While many people find this Chinglish to be funny, it is also said to “damage the country’s image” and confuse (使困惑) English speakers. On Dec. 1, China carried out its first national standards (规范) for the use of English in public service areas, People’s Daily reported.
The standards include more than 3,500 Chinese-to-English translations in 13 areas, including transportation, sports and education. This means that many Chinese words will now have standard English names.
For example, the English words for the Chinese dishes huntun and lamian are “wonton” and “lamian noodles”. For kaochuan and mixian, the English names are “barbecue” and “rice noodles”.
As for places, shaoniangong is called “children’s palace”. The entertainment activity nongjiale that we enjoy in rural areas is called “agritainment”. There are also many English warning (警示) phrases, like “wet floor” for xiaoxindihua and “mind your head” for dangxinpengtou.
The standards are part of efforts China has made in past years to fix incorrect English. Many cities have already fixed a lot of signs that show the wrong English translations. In 2015, Shanghai opened a 12345 hotline to encourage people to report incorrect translations.

My elder brother Steve gave me important lessons in values that helped me grow into an adult after my father died when I was six years old.
Steve taught me to face the results of my behavior. Once when I returned in tears from a Saturday baseball game, it was Steve who took some time to ask me what happened. When I told him that my baseball broke Mrs. Holt’s basement window, Steve encouraged me to tell her the truth. After all, I played basement in a wrong place. As I explained to Mrs. Holt, my voice shook. Of course, I had to pay for the broken window from my pocket money.
I also learned from Steve that personal property (财产) is a sacred(神圣的) thing. After I found a shiny pen in my fifth-grade classroom, I wanted to keep it. Then Steve explained that it might be important to the loser although it had little value. He also reminded me of how sad I was when I lost the small wooden dog my father made. At last, I returned the pen to my teacher, Mrs. Davids. I still remembered the smell of her perfume(香水) when she gave a hug.
Of all the lessons Steve gave me, his respect for life is the most vivid in my mind. When I was twelve, I killed an old brown bird in the garden with a gun. With excitement, I asked Steve to come from the house to take a look. I shall never forget the way he stood for a long moment and stared at the bird on the ground. Then in a dead, quiet voice, he asked, “Did it hurt you first, Mark?” I didn’t know what to answer. He continued with his eyes firm, “Even if it hurts you first, you should think a long time and then decide whether you will kill it or not.” I really felt terrible then, but that moment I will never forget.
1.How many lessons Steve gave to Mark are mentioned in the passage?
A.One. B.Two. C.Three. D.Four.

5.What’s the best title of the passage?
A.My Guide in Childhood B.My Lovely Brother

What we have been aware of is that people from Italy speak Italian and people from Russia speak Russian. But have you ever wondered the reason why people speak Spanish in so many South American countries? Do you know why the brilliant footballers of Brazil speak Portuguese? And why is French the first language of some people in Canada? The answer is that all these countries belonged to European empires at one time. The next question is: how did these empires begin? To answer that question we have to probably go back to the 15thand 16thcenturies, the golden age of European explorers.
Although this period is known as the golden age of European explorers, it was not the beginning of European exploration. As you probably know, Marco Polo travelled a long way to China at the end of the 13thcentury and some people say that the Vikings discovered America long before Columbus set sail in 1492. However, it is during this “golden” period that some famous voyages took place. Columbus' voyage to America is the best known voyage of exploration, but Ferdinand Magellan sailed round the world in this period, and Spanish explorers such as Central and Pizarro reached South America. Cortez defeated the Aztecs in what we now know as Mesico and Pizarro defeated the Incas in what we now know as Peru. The roots of the Spanish empire were established and that is why he Spanish language is so widely spoken in Central and South America today.
