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． |
Have you ever heard the phrase "You never get a second chance to make a first impression（印象）"？ It may sound like an unusual piece of advice，but it is true﹣the first impression someone has of you when meeting you for the first time will probably influence how that person treats you or reacts to you in the future．
What is even more interesting is that the brain takes in all the information to create that first impression in about three seconds．When you meet someone for the first time，by the time you have stated your name or shaken hands，the other person has already formed an opinion about the kind of person you are．
So how do you make a good first impression？All things grown up tell you such as being polite，and being well﹣dressed are very important．However，the most important tool for making a good first impression is your face．
Smiling，being responsive，and looking like you are happy will almost always leave a positive（积极的）impression on people，especially those who do not know you．Most people，generally speaking，are ready to smile back when they are smiled at．
Furthermore，smiling and being in a positive mood helps you to know and get a better understanding of new things．This means that you can possibly be friendlier to people you do not know and be more creative and able to solve problems more quickly．So if you ever need a reason to be happy，think about the wonderful people you might meet and impress with a cheerful smile．

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？
