Most people think about donating blood. However. Very few actuallv do it. Even the most consistent ones donate an average of just three to four times during their lifetime. Now the officials in Sweden are trying to change the trend with the help of modern-day technology.

The encouragement to donate again begins shortly after the donor leaves the clinic when he/she receives a "thank you" text. Though that certainly helps them feel appreciated, what is even more pleasing is the text they receive each time their blood is used to help someone in need.

Karolina Wiberg, manager of the Stockholm blood service, believes this small gesture not only results in repeat donors, but helps bring in new ones. The program that was started in Stockholm has received such positive feedback that it is now being rolled out across the country.

However, Swedish officials are not stopping there. They are also encouraging local clinics to publish the exact levels of the different blood groups they have at any given time on their websites. This allows potential donors to realize that their blood can make a difference in saving someone ' s life.

While all these outreach programs are great, busy citizens, even the ones with the best intentions have to be occasionally reminded. In order to jog their memories, officials ask people for authorization to send them text, Facebook, and e-mail reminders. Though that may sound disturbing, the citizens do not seem to mind, given that the messages are light-hearted and fun-things like "We won't give up until you bleed."

Though Sweden is currently the only country using modern technology to urge more donations, don't be surprised if more join in, especially if the Nordic (北欧) country's blood banks start to overflow!

1.Why is another text sent to blood donors after a "thank you" one?

A. To ask them for authorization.

B. To inform them their blood is used.

C. To remind them to donate blood immediately. '

D. To tell them the levels of blood groups.

2.What does "the program" in paragraph 3 refer to?

A, Publishing information about blood donation.

B. Giving Facebook reminders to citizens.

C. Sending text messages to blood donors.

D. Providing people with blood service.

3.What do people think of blood donation reminders?

A. Disturbing. B. Memorable.

C. Authentic. D. Acceptable.

4.What can we infer from the last paragraph?

A. Sweden will stop urging blood donation.

B. Sweden has benefited little from its program.

C. More countries may follow Sweden's example.

D. Nordic blood banks are in great need of blood.

When we’re in need, we always turn to our parents for help. But would you like them to hear the conversations you have with your friends on the school playground or lunch queue? Social networking sites have become extensions (延伸) of the school hallways, so would you add your parents as “friends” and allow them to view your online activities and conversations with friends?

In the past the generation gap included a technology gap, where children were up to date with latest technology and parents were left behind, content to continue their day to day lives as they always had because they had no need to know more about technology. However, more and more parents are beginning to realize just how important social networks are in their lives. This realization has given many parents the motivation to educate themselves about social networking sites.

These days many people are attracted to social networking sites because they can choose who they have around them; there’s also a certain amount of control over privacy that we don’t get in real life. Sometimes we feel that privacy is violated (侵犯)when we must accept a “friend” request from a parent or family member.

It’s a difficult choice whether or not to allow a parent to become a part of our online lives. On the one hand we don’t want to “reject” their request because that might hurt their feelings or make them feel you have something to hide. On the other hand if you do accept, then you could have a sense of being watched and no longer feel free to comment or communicate the way you did before.

A recent survey suggested that parents shouldn’t take it personally if their child ignores their request: “When a teen ignores a parent’s friend request, it doesn’t necessarily mean that they are hiding something, but it could mean that this is one part of their life where they want to be independent.”

Perhaps talking with parents and giving explanations would help soften the blow if you do choose not to add them to your friends list.

1.The passage is mainly about ______.

A. privacy online

B. parents’ friend requests

C. the generation gap

D. social networks

2.From Paragraph 2, we learn that ______.

A. parents have realized the importance of social networks

B. parents feel secure about their privacy online

C. social networks successfully fill the generation gap

D. social networks offer a platform for parents to communicate

3.Teenagers may refuse a parent’s friend request because ______.

A. their parents make negative comments on them

B. they hide something from their parents

C. they are unwilling to be watched by parents

D. their parents tend to fall behind in technology

4.The passage is written mainly for ______.

A. parents B. teachers

C. researchers D. teenagers
