When you cut your skin,you bleed.If a person loses a lot of blood,he will become ill and may die.Blood is very important.People have always 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"(输血).The blood goes from the arm of the healthy person into the arm of the sick person.
But there are two problems.First,it does not always work.Sometimes people die when they are having blood transfusion.Later,doctors find that we do not all have the same kind of blood.There are four main groups of blood﹣﹣﹣O,A,B and AB.Almost all of us have blood of one of these groups.They also find that they can give any of the four groups of blood to people 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 if they make it very cold,they can keep the blood in bottles for fifteen to twenty days.Then they find out 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 may become ill.You may need blood.The"blood bank"will give it to you.

Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. Welcome to the nine o’clock Mystery Hour. Today we’ll show you two British stories. We hope you’ll enjoy them.
About 900 years ago two green children arrived in a small village in south England. Their eyes and skin were green and they spoke a strange language. They were very tired and weak, so the people of the village looked after them. The boy died a year later, but the girl grew strong and lived the rest of her life there. And her skin color turned back to normal day by day. Scientists say that sometimes of people don’t have enough food to eat for a long time, their skin goes very pale and can turn green.
Loch Ness is the largest lake in Scotland. It’s a very deep and cold lake. For hundreds of years, people have talked about a monster(怪物) called Nessie which lives in the lake. About seventy years ago, two people saw something moving in the lake. They said that the animal was playing and rolling around in the water. Since then many people say they have seen the monster. Their descriptions are always the same. It looks like a dinosaur, with a very long neck and a small head. It has a big bump(肿块)on its back.
