Blood donation, also called blood banking, is a wonderful thing to do. It is an easy and direct way of making a contribution to social work and having a big effect on the community. It helps to save lives and helps those who are in need of blood because of bad conditions or the heavy loss of blood during operations or in accidents.
You are able to give or donate blood every three or four months. The doctors say it is not bad for your health. It is such a beautiful way of making a huge difference to someone’s life and you can always be proud of it if you make a valuable contribution 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 with an empty stomach. You should follow the correct process so that everything goes well. After having a balanced diet you will feel strong and comfortable to donate blood. You will not feel weak at the same time.
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(血流) in your body, drink at least 6-7 glasses of water every day. Completely avoid taking alcohol or caffeine a day before and after giving blood. Do not smoke cigarettes(烟) half an hour before giving blood.

The 31st Summer Olympics will be held in Brazil in 2016. Before this global sporting event, we started thinking about sports that didn’t exist any more and sports that were maybe a little strange. Read the following ones that have ever been included in the past Olympic Games.
Live Pigeon Shooting (1900)
This bloody event was only held once, at the 1900 Paris Games. Nearly 300 birds were killed during the competition, leaving a crime scene of feathers and blood. This is the only event in Olympic history that involved killing live animals.
Kabaddi (1936)
This sport is popular in South Asia. The object is for one member of a team to enter the other side’s half of the field, and score points. The attacker then returns to his half of the field.
12 Hour Bicycle Race (1896)
Seven riders got on their bikes at 5 a.m. and rode until 5 p.m. Four riders dropped out before noon, but the winner, Adolf Schmal of Austria, managed about 180 miles. Only Schmal and one other finished.
Tug of War (1900—1920)
This may seem like a basic PE class sport more than an Olympic event, but Tug of War was actually one of the first sports played at the Olympic games in 500 BC.
There are two teams of eight; the winning team must pull the other team six feet forward.
Swimming Obstacle Race (1900)
The athletes had to climb over a pole (杆子) and a row of boats, and then swim under another row of boats. All of this was done in the Seine River, so they also had to fight against the water. This event was only ever held in 1900, in Paris.
1.What do you probably think of these events?
A. Strange. B. Fantastic. C. Modern. D. Interesting.
2.Which sport looks like a common activity more than an Olympic event?
A. Swimming Obstacle Race.
B. 12 Hour Bicycle Race.
C. Live Pigeon Shooting.
D. Tug of War.
3.How many athletes finished the event 12 Hour Bicycle Race?
A. One. B. Two. C. Four. D. Seven.
4.What does “drop out” mean in English according to the passage?
A. Give up. B. Run out.
C. Fall off. D. Break down.
5.What can we learn from the passage?
A. Athletes took part in all of the events in teams.

You can be proud of yourselves, even if you can only make one or two of these green changes. The goal here is to limit carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases, which are closely connected to the big problem of global-warming (全球变暖).
WAY 1: Bring your own cup to Starbucks. You’ll get a 10-cent discount, and it’s one less paper cup to end up in a dustbin. The store won’t create more waste when they throw away a cup.
WAY 2: Turn off your computer. When in standby mode, your PC is still using energy. Turning off a monitor (显示器) for 40 hours a week may only save $ 5 a month, but it reduces CO2 by 750 pounds.
WAY 3: Reuse plastic bags. Instead of throwing away 100 billion plastic bags a year, try and get a second, third, or tenth use out of them. Better yet, next time you shop, try a reusable bag. The amount of oil it would take to make just 14 plastic bags would run your car for one mile.
WAY 4: Use recycled paper in the bathroom. Most of the toilet paper we use is made from trees found in forests. If every family replaced(替换)one roll of toilet paper with a recycled one, 424,000 trees would still be standing.
WAY 5: Plant a tree. Adding green to your garden is beautiful and earth-pleasing. Just one tree will help make cleaner air and save the environment from 5, 000 pounds of hot carbon dioxide each year.
1.How many ways are mentioned(提及) in the passage?
A. Two. B. Three. C. Four. D. Five.
2.What will happen if our PC is turned off when it isn’t in use?
A. It will help to save a large amount of money.
B. It will help to reduce a great deal of CO₂.
C. It will save the amount of oil that runs your car for a mile.
D. It will be like planting 1.7 million acres of new trees.
3.Which ways suggest recycling or reusing of things?
A. Ways 3 & 4. B. Ways 2 & 3.
C. Ways 3 & 5. D. Ways 2 & 4.
4.How do these ways do good to our environment?
A. They all help reduce the use of energy like electricity.
B. They all cut down the number of the use of paper.
C. They all produce less greenhouse gases as a result.
D. They all help protect our trees and forests.
5.What is the best title for the passage?

B. Ways to Be Earth-Friendly
C. Ways to End Global-Warming
