Seeing blood in a horror movie might make you cover your eyes，but real blood isn't scary at all．（1） That's why blood donors are considered lifesavers．
Blood donors are those giving blood﹣usually about 200ml at a time﹣to blood banks or blood donation（捐赠）centers．（2） For example，someone may have lost blood in accidents，or have a serious illness that requires his blood to be replaced．Hospitals and blood banks store the blood and try to keep enough on hand．

Everyone faces challenges in their life， but some are more difficult than others． Daniel Kish had serious problems with his eyes when he was born． And doctors took away both of his eyes before he was fourteen months old．
Soon later， however，he started to do an amazing thing．He started to make clicking （咔哒） sounds with his tongue （舌头） to help him move around． Much like a bat （蝙蝠） ， he now moves about using sonar （声呐）． （1） He and his group， World Access for the Blind， teach others how to use sonar．In this interview with National Geographic， Kish explains how sonar works．
How does sonar work？
"When I make a clicking sound， it makes sound waves． These waves reflect （反射） off surfaces all around and return to my ears． My brain then processes the sounds into images （图象）（2） "．
When you click， what do you see in your mind？
"Each click is like a camera flash． I make a 3D image of the things around me for hundreds of feet in every direction．
What is it like riding a bike using sonar？
"（3） I click up to two times per second， much more than I usually do"．
Is it dangerous to move around the world in this way？
"Much of the world lives in fear of things that we mostly imagine． I have a habit of climbing everything， but I never broke a bone （骨头） as a kid．"
How challenging is it to teach people to use sonar？
"Many students are surprised how quickly results come． （4） It's in the mind"．
| A． It's exciting and enjoyable but requires a lot of focus． B． He is so good at it that he can ride a bicycle in traffic． C． Seeing isn't in the eyes． D． It's like having a conversation with the environment． |
How can we protect the Earth？ One problem to solve is climate（气候）change． You might wonder about climate change． What is it， exactly？
Gases surround the Earth．（1） Sunlight passes down through the gases． The gases trap（储存）the sun's heat and act like blanket． Without these gases， the Earth would be very cold． The trouble comes when humans add too many gases to the atmosphere．The gases build up and trap even more heat．This causes changes in climate． The Earth becomes too warm．
（2） There's another gas causing climate change． No one talks about it as much． It is nitrous oxide（氧化亚氮）． Many call it laughing gas． Dentists may give patients nitrous oxide so they will not feel pain． The atmosphere has small amounts of nitrous oxide． But nitrous oxide can stay in the atmosphere more than 100 years which can change the climate a lot．
Nitrous oxide forms naturally． （3） Bacteria are living organisms（生物）made of single cells． Farmers use nitrogen fertilizer（氮肥）to help grow bigger crops． The bacteria in the soil take the nitrogen from the fertilizer and make more nitrous oxide with it．
So how can we help？ "Number one is to not waste food，" Wagner Riddle， a scientist from Canada， said． （4） That number comes from a U． S． university study． "There is a lot that goes into making food"， Wagner Riddle says． "So then if it's wasted， it's for nothing．"
根据短文内容，从下列选项中选出能填人文中空白处的最佳选项，选项中有一项为多余选项．
A． That's the reason for climate change．
B． It comes from bacteria（细菌）that live in the dirt．
C． Carbon dioxide（二氧化碳）is one gas that traps heat．
D． More than one﹣third of all food created in the U． S． is wasted．
E． These gases reach high into the sky and are called the atmosphere（大气层）．

I thought I hurt my parents' feelings because I was sure they could see the disappointment on my face．（2） ， riding as fast as I could and didn't look back．
As time went by， I began to understand that my parents gave me something much more than just a rusty （生锈的） old bike．（3） ． When you give something out of love， it doesn't matter what it is． What matters is the love that is in it．
I like to remember this story because giving a gift is not about money．（4）． ． Remember this： a gift that costs 2 isn't any less valuable than one that costs 100．
| A． I got on the old bike and rode it B． I told my parents my birthday wish C． It's about how much love you can feel from it D． They taught me a life lesson about love |
