     Some students think it difficult to learn English well.  That's because they don't find the right way.  I
 think reading is very important for students.  The more you read, the better you'll understand.  Reading is
  helpful to listening, speaking and writing.
     If you often read English aloud, you'll improve your listening.  On the other hand, listening a lot can help
  you to read better.  Reading English everywhere when you are free, if you wish.  You can get a lot of
  knowledge when you read.  Sometimes you need to express your ideas, you can either speak or write.  
 That means you are using what you learned from reading.  The same as Chinese, the more you read, the

     Many children think mobile phones are cool. They come in fun colours and let you talk with a friend
anytime and anywhere.
     In the U.S., more than 90 million people use mobile phones. Many of those people are children. For
children, mobile phones are more than phone calls. They are fashionable.
Most mobile phone users don't think about the health problems caused by mobile phones. Some scientists
say that mobile phones give off radiation (辐射) that might be bad for users. One recent study shows that
mobile phone radiation might raise a person's chance of getting some kinds of cancer (癌症). Other
scientists say mobile phones don't threaten people's health. They say that they have not found any link (联系) between mobile phone use and cancer.
     Scientists say that people can protect themselves from mobile phone radiation. One way is to use a
headset (耳机). Or people can make shorter calls.

     When you cut your skin, you bleed (流血). If a person loses a lot of blood (血), he will become ill and
  may die. Blood is very important. People have known that. At one time, some people even drank blood
 to make them strong!
     When doctors understand how blood goes around inside the body, they try ways of giving blood to
 people who need it. They take blood from the healthy people and give it to people who need it. This is
  called "blood transfusion". The blood goes from the arm of the sick person.
     But there are two problems. First, it does not always work. Sometimes people die when they have
  blood transfusion. Later, doctors find that we do not all have the same kind of blood. There are four
 groups - O, A, B and AB. We all have blood of one of these groups. They also find that they can give any
  kind of blood to people of group AB. But they find that they must give A group blood to A group people
  and B group blood to B group people. I have O group blood and the doctor told me that I could give
 blood to anyone else safely.
     There is another problem. To give blood of the right kind, doctors have to find a person of the right
 blood group. Often they can not find a person in time. If they have a way to keep the blood until someone
  needs it, they can always have the right kind of blood. At first they find they can keep it in bottles for
  fifteen to twenty days. They do this by making it very cold. Then they find how to keep it longer. In the
  end they find a way of keeping blood for a very long time.
     We call a place where we keep money a "bank". We call a place where we keep blood a "blood
  bank". One day, when you grow up, you may decide to give blood to a "blood bank". In this way you
  may stop someone from dying. Or perhaps one day you become ill. You may need blood. The "blood
  bank" will give it to you.
