Blood Donation (献血)
A grown–up person has ten or eleven pints (品脱) of blood inside his or her body. We can lose a pint of blood without feeling, but if we lose too much blood, we feel weak and cold. Our faces become pale (苍白的).We may die. This is what often happen when somebody is hurt in an accident, or a soldier is hurt in a war. Many people used to die in this way. But today they can be taken to hospital and given more blood. Almost at once they feel better. Their faces are no longer pale. They do not die.
Where does this blood come from? People who are healthy may donate blood to a blood bank so that it can be used to save people’s lives. When they go to donate blood, a special kind of needle(针) is put into the arm. It does not hurt. The blood runs through the needle and through a rubber tube (橡胶管) into a bottle or a bag.
13
A pint of blood is taken this way. The person who has given blood drinks a cup of tea or coffee and rests for a few minutes, then he feels quite well. And he may give his blood like this three months later.
A person who gives blood feels happy, because he knows that his blood will be used to someone’s life. Perhaps one day he himself will need blood.
When you are older, you may give blood, too. But you can’t do this until you are eighteen.
11. If we lose a little blood, ____________________.
A. we feel much better. B. we must die.
C. we will be much thinner. D. we feel as usual.
12. ______________ can donate blood to a blood bank.
A. A six-year-old boy B. People who are healthy
C. Anyone D. Adults
13. You’d better ____________ after you donate a pint of blood .
A. have a rest B. do some exercise
C. take a long walk D. have a swim
14. A person who gives blood feels happy, because ________________.
A. he makes a contribution to society B. he gets a lot of money
C. he knows that his blood is very good D. he can drink a cup of tea or coffee and rests
15. How often can a person donate blood?
A. Every three months. B. Any time if you like.
C. At most once every three months. D. One year.

MSG(monosodium glutamate) is a food additive(食品添加剂),which has been widely used by many food factories all over the world since it appeared first in Japan in 1909.
MSG is a substance that is added to some food to improve its original(原先的) taste and colour. It is used in foods around the world such as cakes, bread, frozen meats, fish and vegetables. In the beginning, people thought MSG was safe just like salt and sugar. However, in 1968 some people reported they seemed to have bad reactions(反应) to MSG after having had a meal at a restaurant. They included headaches and quick heartbeat(心跳).It was also reported that MSG excited a person’s brain and caused his death in Japan. Scientists think that MSG may lead to many neurological disorders(神经紊乱). In mice studies done by a university, the evidence showed the mice didn’t want to eat the food including MSG.
13
Today many food companies “hide” MSG on food labels(标签) by using different names. If you see “natural flavorings”, “hydrolyzed protein” and “spices” in a food label, you are probably seeing a hidden way to “report” MSG in a food label. Every time we have a meal in a restaurant, we always feel the food very delicious to taste, but sometimes it is dangerous for our health because some poisonous food additives have been added to the food.
To protect people’s health, our governments, from central to local, are taking actions to stop factories producing poisonous food additives.
16. Monosodium Glutamate is _________________.
A. a food B. an additive C. a factory D. a country
17. MSG is often used in _______________.
A. frozen meats B. cups C. clothes D. book covers
18. The examples in the second paragraph tell us ____________.
A. the food including MSG is delicious
B. people like to eat in a restaurant
C. mice like eating the food including MSG
D. MSG is not safe sometimes
19. If you see “natural flavorings”, “hydrolyzed protein” and “spices” in a food label, you will know _____________.
A. you must eat the food in a hidden way
B. the food label must be hidden
C. MSG is probably added to the food
D. you must report the food to your parents
20. The underlined word “substance” in the article means __________.
A. colour B. material C. taste D. food
