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”. 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 have blood transfusion. Later, doctors find that we do not all have the same kind of blood. There are four groups—O, A, B and AB. We all have blood of one of these groups. They also find that they can give any kind of blood 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 cannot 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 they can keep it in bottles for fifteen to twenty days. They do this by making it very cold. Then they find 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. 8. From the passage, we learn that sometimes people die when they have blood transfusions because they . A. are unhealthy people B. have lost a lot of blood C. are not given the right kind of blood D. are AB-group people 9. Which of the following is true? A. Doctors can give any kind of blood to the writer. B. The writer can give blood to B-group people. C. The writer has never had a blood transfusion. D. The writer has the same kind of blood as his father. 10. People set up the “blood bank” so that they can . A. give the right kind of blood to the people who need it in time B. keep different groups of blood as much as possible C. make it easier to sell or buy blood D. keep blood for more than twenty hundred years 11. From the last paragraph (段落) of the passage, we learn that . A. the writer thinks it's good to give blood to a “blood bank” B. we may become ill if we give blood to a “blood bank” C. many people died because they lost a lot of blood D. blood is more important than money D Playing video games and getting money for it seems like a dream job for many of today’s teenagers. But is it all fun and games? Big business Pro (professional)gaming is certainly big business, In 2017, there were more than 3,000 gaming competitions and over 10, 000 professional players worldwide. A large number of people watch their competitions online, and successful gamers can get more than 1, 000,000 dollars from prize money and ads. The industry is clearly thriving. What it takes Becoming a professional is not just about being good at playing games—it also takes a lot of hard work. Some pro gamers practice for fourteen hours a day. “You need to spend much time and put all your efforts to it, ”says ex-gamer George. Not all fun and games It can be a difficult job as well. Stress is a big problem for gamers. Tiredness is another, and injuries(受伤)are common. Top player Hai Lam had wrist(手腕) problems after years of pro gaming. Careers are short, and many gamers retire(退休)before they are 30 and try to find another job. However, the bad points probably won’t change the dreams of many teenage gamers. And angry parents are still likely to hear the excuse, “But I’m just practicing for my future job!” 12. How many professional players were there around the world in 2017? A.130,000. B. More than 3.000. C. Over1,000,000 D. More than 10,000 13. What does the underlined word “thriving” in Paragraph 2 mean? A. Getting worse. B. Doing well. C. Developing slowly. D. Changing quickly. 14. What can we infer from the last sentence of the passage? A. Children are angry with their parents. B. Teenagers practice games for their future jobs. C. Some teenagers are crazy about playing games. D. Parents stop their children playing games. 15. What’s the main idea of the passage? A. Pro gaming isn’t all fun and games. B. The career as a pro gamer doesn’t last long. C. Being a pro gamer is a good choice for teenagers. D. Being a pro gamer is easy to make money. 第Ⅱ卷（非选择题 共60分） 第II卷共36小题，答案请按要求用0.5毫米黑色签字笔写在在答题卡上 A 请根据题中空格后的中文提示、英文释义或音标，写出句中所缺单词，使句子通顺。 1.

The 24-year-old young man lost his right leg because of a blood disease (血液病). The doctor said that his 10 years of smoking had caused the disease. “I first smoked a cigarette when I was in Junior 3. It made me feel like a man and I thought it looked cool. Now I know I was really wrong,” said Zhang. According to the 2008 China Tobacco Control report (中国烟草控制报告), 130 million young people who are under 18 years old have tried smoking. Fifteen million of them are addicted (上瘾的). The report came out on May 31, World No-Smoking Day. It also found that nearly 68% of teenage smokers smoked their first cigarette before the age of 13. Those living in big cities started even earlier. “Some tobacco companies try to make cigarettes cool and attractive. It’s just to make money,” said Yang Gonghuan, a doctor. In fact, smoking is one of the top killers in China. Each year 1 million people die from smoking-related (与吸烟有关的) diseases. Smoking causes illnesses like lung(肺) cancer and heart disease. Doctors say that the younger a person starts smoking, the worse it will be. If a person starts smoking as a teenager, he or she may live twenty-two years less than non-smokers. 1. What caused Zhang Li’s disease? 2. When did he first smoke a cigarette? 3. How many people die from smoking-related diseases each year in China? 4. If someone smokes too much, what diseases can he develop? 5.
