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．
（3） Medical workers ask donors several questions to make sure the blood is safe to use．Then the donors relax，often reading a magazine or talking as their blood is drawn．Afterward，the donors may receive some juice or water and maybe fruit to give them energy．The process is simple，not scary．（4） ．
To give blood，a person must be at least 18 years old and must meet certain other requirements．Students of all ages，though，can learn more about the donation process by visiting a local blood donation center．（5） It is also an easy way to help a community．
A．Donating blood is not difficult． B．Then the blood can be used for people in need． C．In fact，blood is the gift of life and keeps us alive． D．Donating blood is not only one of the easiest ways to save lives． E．Most people are able to donate blood again in several months if they wish． |
Lucy used to be （real）shy．So she took acting classes to deal with her shyness．
All over the world，thousands of animals are used for wildlife tourism．People travel to watch monkey shows，hug baby tigers and swim with dolphins．It might look like fun，but there are reports that animals are hurt now and again．
The World Animal Protection（WAP）says that up to 550，000 wild animals are exposed（暴露）to ill treatment around the world；in Cambodia，for example，it's been reported that elephants have died after carrying tourists for long in hot weather．This is getting attention﹣over 100 travel companies have promised that they will no longer open up such places．However，some people argue that animal tourism isn't always as bad as it seems．So what do you think？

●The way animals are treated is often cruel and causes much pain．Even if treated well，they cannot act in the same way as they would in the wild．

Put on your T﹣shirt and shorts. It's （hot） than yesterday.
"I'm going to bed earlier tomorrow! "But no matter how we decide， there are still many chances that we break our promises．
This behavior is called" bedtime procrastination"（睡眠拖延症）， and results from being short of self﹣control and our body clock．
Bedtime procrastination is a common problem． According to a study， Among 2， 400 people， 53 percent of them couldn't follow their sleeping time they had planned， delaying（#fE R ）it at least twice a week． They delayed bedtime not because they liked to stay up late， but they couldn't stop doing some other things．
Accordingly， People who usually have trouble resisting temptations（抵制诱惑） and adhering to their intentions（坚持己见） are more likely to delay going to bed．
However， scientists think being short of self﹣control is not the only problem． Our body clock also lays an important role when it comes to bedtime．
In order to check the influence of the body clock on sleep， scientists studied the sleep patterns （t模式）of 108 people． It was found that those who got up late are more likely to delay their bedtime than those who woke up early every morning．
And more surprisingly， night owls（夜猫子）would go to bed late at the very beginning of the weekday， even though they had to get up early for work and school． It's their special body clock that plays a part in delaying their bedtime．
People always think that bedtime procrastination isn't a big problem， but the choices we make that affect （影响）our sleep could finally be pretty important for our health．
