3.What is so amazing about giving blood?
The National Blood Service,which covers all of England and North Wales,needs nearly two and a half million blood donations each year.When you give blood,you'll be doing one of the most amazing things anybody could dream of-saving a life.
                                
All types of blood are needed-not just rare ones.In fact,the commoner the blood type,the more are needed.So even if your blood is one of the most common types-group O for example-you can be sure that by donating three times a year,you really are doing something amazing.
What is the donation process?
The donation will last about an hour in all.When you arrive,you will be asked a few questions about your health.Then a drop of blood will be taken and tested just to make sure you're not anemic(贫血).If all is well,your donation will be taken.
This only takes about ten minutes,during which time 470ml of blood will be collected.Most people hardly feel a thing.After a short rest,a drink and biscuits,you'll be up and ready to go.All equipment used in the collection of your blood is new and is never reused,so you don't have to worry about risks to your health in the collection of your blood.
Who can become a blood donor?
Becoming a blood donor really is very simple.As long as you're in good health and aged between 17and 60,you can become a blood donor.If you would like more information or advice,or you want to become a blood donor,ring the donor helpline on 0845 7711.The donor helpline is open 24hours a day-every day of the year.

3.Puppy Food
A puppy(young dog)is a precious addition to any family.The excitement of bringing home a little furry friend will always live in our memories.Like all of us,though,your puppy must have adequate nutrition right from the start to make certain that it'll have a long and healthy life.
(71)BYou might ask yourself what is the best for your new pet with all of the different varieties on the market in all of their attractive packaging.Some dry food produced specially for puppies is the best for the development of their teeth.(72)E
Contrary to the belief of many first-time puppy owners,it is not always the best idea to purchase food that is too high in calcium(钙),protein,and vitamin levels. (73)F In addition,a high intake of calcium is associated with bone disease in large-breed dogs.If you have a"smallbreed"puppy,you can buy that kind of food.
It is not a good idea to feed the food you eat to your puppy frequently,as your puppy may become selective about food.(74)D Some people think that dog biscuits and other treats are fine,but they should not be a main part of puppy's diet.
Young puppies should be fed three times a day.Each puppy is unique,however,so feeding them twice a day is acceptable.After ten to twelve weeks of age,feed your puppy twice per day.Allow your puppy to eat as much as he would like in fifteen minutes. (75)A If you let your puppy eat too much or too often by keeping food accessible at all times,he may become overweight and have health problems as an adult.Like humans,your puppy will not enjoy the food any longer if it is there at all times

A.Pick up the dish with the remaining food.
B.Proper food is a basic necessity for your puppies.
C.Remember to give your puppy the food he would like to have.
D.It can also cause an upset stomach due to an unbalanced diet.
E.A further benefit is that it is less expensive than the canned food.
F.One example is that extra helpings of nutrients do harm to digestive organs.
G.It'good to provide the extra nutrients a puppy needs until he grows larger.
11.For most seventh graders,life doesn't get much harder than a history test.But for Grant Reed of Bellville,Ohio,it's his own current events that are so painful."Honestly,I don't want to die,"Grant says.Last year,doctors at Nationwide Children's Hospital in Columbus found a tumor(肿瘤)in Grant's brain.They cut it out,but the surgery left him with stroke-like symptoms.Plus,he had to go through months of radiation and chemotherapy to try to stop the spread of the disease.
    Yet,through it all,Grant has shown remarkable determination,which he owes,partly,to Ohio State football.His parents,Troy and Denise,were both in the OSU marching band and fell in love during halftime of the Michigan game.His cat is named   after the team Buckeye.His wardrobe is painted scarlet(the color of the team's sportswear).The point is,almost nothing mattered more to Grant than Ohio State  football-until he got sick,of course.
‘‘I didn't like the word cancer,"Grant says.So he decided not to use the word.Instead,the kid named his cancer Michigan and insisted everyone in his life refer to it as such,because Ohio State always beats Michigan.That was something he could understand and make it into a competition.He was going to beat this disease.
    It's now been more than a year since Grant issued that announcement."And if you
look at his scans,"Dr.Randal Olshefski at Nationwide Children's says,"There's nothing there.There's a big space,but there's no tumor.''
"Grant is beating Michigan.And although much of it has to go to science,don't discount the semantics(语义学).You have to do something to make it a disease you can fight.And for Grant,that was naming it Michigan."his parents say.
    This weekend,Ohio State and Michigan will be battling like their lives depend on it.But in this house,the Reed family will be watching with a calm insight:it's just a game.

A.History is a difficult subject.

42.From the second paragraph,we can infer thatA.

43.Why did Grant name his cancer Michigan?D
A.Because he dare not face it.

D.Because his favorite team can always beat Michigan
44.Apart from radiation and chemotherapy,Bis helping Grant beat the disease.
A.the semantics      B.his strong determination

12.It was August 10,2011.Diana Nyad was dozens of miles into her dream to complete a 103-mile swim from Cuba to Key West.Because of the currents in the Florida Straits,Nyad would have to last 60hours-if everything went perfectly.
For two years,this dream of swimming from Cuba to Florida had been part of her every waking hour.She was about to turn 60."I wanted to be filled with commitment to the best of myself so that 1wasn't looking back later saying,'What have I done with my life?'''says Nyad.
Those extreme physical struggles are not new to her.In 1974,25-year-old Nyad became the first person to swim across Lake Ontario against the current.A year later,Nyad's 28-mile swim around the island of Manhattan made the front page of the New York Times.
"Physically,I'm stronger.I weigh a lot more,"Nyad said after a training swim in Key West in June."There are also mental advantages to being older,"says Steven Munatones,an expert in swimming.
Feeling a sharp pain in her right shoulder,she changed the angle of stroke (划),telling herself to go gently until her hand caught the water.In the 17th hour,she swam over to the boat,and the crew located a pain reliever.Nyad took it.She lay on her back,rolled onto her belly and continued swimming,and then she'd turn on her back again,gasping,unable to fill her lungs."I'm trying to make it.I'm barely going forward.I feel so sick.This has been my dream forever,but I can hardly make it another hour,"Nyad told David Marchant,the boat's navigator (领航员).Between the 23rd and 27th hours,Nyad had gone just five miles."OK,Diana,I'm going to touch you,and it's going to be over,"Stoll said.Nyad agreed.And with that,29hours and 43minutes after she'd leaped into the water,the swim came to an end.
"She just wouldn't quit.It was more amazing to see her not make it the way she fought than if everything had gone exactly right and she'd made it the whole way,"says Mark Sollinger,who piloted Nyad's lead boat.
At a press.conference in Key West after being pulled onto the support boat,Nyad choked back tears and said,"Sometimes the will is so strong.But I was shaking and freezing,and I thought,'There's no mind over matter anymore.'I think I'm going to have to go to my grave without swimming from Cuba to Florida."
But when Nyad returned home to Los Angeles,the pain began to fade."Something says to me the goal is still there,"says Nyad.

56.Nyad decided to swim from Cuba to Florida because sheD.
A.wouldn't swim against the current
B.wanted to prove she was stronger than before
C.had David Marchant as her navigator

B.has given up the dream of swimming across the Florida Straits
C.appeared on the front page of the New York Times at the age of25

3.Advice to"sleep on it"could be well founded,scientists say.After a good night's sleep a problem that seemed impossible to solve the night before can often appear easier,although no evidence has proved this by now.But researchers at the University of Luebek in Germany have designed an experiment that shows a good night's sleep can improve insight(洞察力)and problem-solving."If you have some newly acquired memories in your brain,sleep acts on these memories,restructures(重构)them,so that after sleep the insight into a problem which you could not solve before increases,"said Dr.Jan Bom,a neuroscientist,at the university.To test the theory,they taught volunteers two simple rules to help them put a string of numbers into a new order.There was also a third,hidden rule,which could help them increase their speed in solving the problem.The researchers divided the volunteers into two groups,half were allowed to sleep after the training while the remainders were forced to stay awake.Bom and his team noticed that the group that had slept after the training were twice as likely to figure out the third rule as the other group."Sleep helped,"Bom said in a telephone interview."The important thing is that you have to have a memory representation in your brain of the problem you want to solve and then you sleep,so it can act on the problem."But Bom admitted that he and his team don't know how restructuring of memories occurs or what governs it or in which stage of sleep it works.Pierre Marquette and Pierre Ruby of the University of Liege in Belgium said the experimental evidence supports the suggestions that sleep can promote creative thinking.Although the role of sleep in human creativity will still be a mystery,the research gives people good reason to fully respect their periods of sleep,they added.
