3． I worked as a volunteer at a hospital at the age of sixteen. A year later, a little girl named Lisa lived in hospital because she had a very serious disease and she was dying. The doctor had done his best to help the girl but no medicine really worked. There was an only change to save her life. It was a blood transfusion from her brother who was only six years old and two years older than the little girl. The little boy had the same disease before. Luckily, his body developed the antibodies and the antibodies fought against the disease. The boy was saved.
The doctor talked to the boy about his sister and asked him if he agreed to give his blood to his sister. The little boy was worried about his sister. He took a deep breath and said, "Yes, I do." During the blood transfusion, the little boy said nothing and lay in bed next to his sister. He looked at his sister and smiled. In the end, when he saw his sister's face turn a little red, his smile disappeared and became afraid. He looked up at the doctor and asked, "Will I begin to die now?" The doctor understood his feelings and was touched. He said, "You are a brave child. You will not die because of this and your sister is saved because of you."
This brave and kind-hearted boy was too young to understand the doctor's words. He thought he would die if he gave his blood to his sister but he still agreed.

4． Chinese painting is one of the oldest forms of painting in the world. Chinese artists first began painting over two thousand years ago, and painters in China are still using many of the same methods today.
Chinese painters often paint natural scenes, animals or people. Buildings are seldom included, unless they make up a small part of a natural scene.
There are two kinds of traditional Chinese paintings. The first is the gongbi style. This style of painting takes a lot of time to make, as everything is painted in great detail. This style often uses a lot of colour as well. Long ago, most professional painters in China used the gongbi style.
The second style of Chinese painting is the ink-wash painting (水墨画). Ink-wash paintings are done very quickly, and may not have much colour. Ink-wash painting also have less details, because the painter is trying to get across the impression of the scene with just a few brush strokes (笔画). Long ago, most ink-wash artists did not work as painters, but painted as a hobby. However, a good ink﹣wash artist could still become famous.

5． Three men have lunch together. After the lunch is over, the men disagree on who should pay for the food. So, like little boys, they play a game called rock-paper-scissors. Around the world, when people want to decide on something or someone, they play this fun game.
In this game, a closed hand means a rock, an open hand means a piece of paper, and a hand with two fingers out means scissors. We all know how this is played. Peter can cover a rock, so rock loses to paper;scissors will break if they try to cut a rock, so scissors lose to rock;and, scissors can cut paper, so paper loses to scissors.
It seems that everyone plays this game, but many people do not know where it came from.
People first started playing a game like rock-paper-scissors in ancient China. During the Han Dynasty, people played a game called shoushiling (手势令). In this game, people used hand gestures like in the modern rock-paper-scissors game, but their gestures meant different kinds of animals. In the 17th century, this game was brought to Japan. The modern form of rock﹣paper﹣scissors was developed in Japan in the late 19th century. From Japan, it became known in Western countries, and even today many people think that it is a Japanese game.

7． Comic books first became very popular with young people in the United States in the 1940s and 1950s. They are more like magazines than books, because they are short, cheap and appear once a month in local shops. Many are about superheroes such as Superman and Batman.

In the same way, in the graphic novel Watchmen the superheroes are like real human beings with all their problems, and they are not always good people. (4) It was the only graphic novel on Time magazine's list of the best 100 books.
While graphic novels look like comic books, they are more like novels. (5) They are longer and much more expensive than comic books, and are for adults.

B. This is sometimes called a graphic novel.
C. In comic books, superheroes are always good.

8． You may not know it, but your pet dog may be trying to speak to you. Dogs use their body l(1) to communicate. Here are some s(2) ways to help you understand your dog better.
A dog's tail may give you many m(3) . If a dog r(4) its tail, it is confident.
