Zhu Keming never thought he would be a hero one day，but he was just that on Saturday when he saved the lives of six runners during the mountain marathon （马拉松）in Baiyin，Gansu Province，in which 21 people lost their lives.
It started off as a normal day for the 49﹣year﹣old shepherd ，who was taking care of his more than 30 sheep on the mountainside.But soon the weather was terrible，with rainfall and hail.The rain got so heavy that he couldn't see clearly and had to run into a cave where he normally went to have a rest.Soon he fell asleep in the cave after covering himself with some quilts he had stored there.
But he was awakened at 2 pm by an unusual sound that was not coming from his sheep.The sound that woke Zhu was the cry of a runner in the marathon.He was wet from head to toe and trembling because of cold.Zhu took him into the cave，lit a fire and covered the stricken （受伤的）runner with his quilts.
Zhu said that there were soon five runners huddling （挤作一团）in the cave，and he then decided to go outside to try to attract the attention of rescuers （救援者）.When he risked coming out of the cave，he found another stricken runner lying on the ground in bad condition.Then the other runners came out of the cave to give a hand.Zhu and the six runners remained huddled around the fire in his cave until 7 pm，when the rescue team arrived.
" I just did what I had to when I saw that these people were in danger.I think everyone would do the same thing in such a situation， "Zhu said to Beijing News.
Luo Chongchuan，the village head of Changsheng，where Zhu and his family live，said that the shepherd is a warm﹣hearted person who often helps his villagers.

Think about what you like to wear on the weekend.There's a good chance that you like to put on a pair of blue jeans.At any moment，about half of the world's population is wearing jeans.But according to a new study，our love for jeans may be bad for Earth.Denim （牛仔布）might be putting some sea animals in danger.
Every time we wash our jeans，tiny bits of denim will flow out of our washing machines，down into the world's rivers，lakes and oceans.
You might wonder：Isn't denim made of cotton，a natural material？How can it become a danger to nature？Well，in the process of making jeans，denim is treated with many types of man﹣made chemicals.Some improve its durability （耐用性）and feel；others give jeans their blue color.
Scientists studied the Great Lakes in America and the Arctic Ocean in northern Canada.They found denim waste in all of the samples （样本）they had collected.It is feared that the harmful chemicals in denim have spread far and wide.Scientists aren't yet sure how these chemicals might harm animals.
In the study，the scientists also washed jeans to see how many bits of denim each pair would drop per wash.The answer was frightening：About 50，000.Not all of them make their way into the environment.Wastewater treatment plants hold back 83 to 99 percent of them.This may sound pretty good.However，one percent of 50，000 bits are still 500 per wash.Now think about the number of jeans around the world and the times each of them gets washed.As a result，a large amount of denim waste still gets into the environment.
Does this mean we shouldn't wear jeans？Probably not" We need to buy fewer jeans and only wash them when we truly need to do it，" says Sam Athey，one of the scientists. " You don't need to wash your jeans after having worn them only a couple of times. "

（3）How many bits of denim might get into the environment every year？
| A． |
