Seeing blood in a horror movie might make you cover your eyes, but real blood isn't scary at all. In fact, blood is the gift of life and keeps us alive. 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(捐贈(zèng)) centers. Then the blood can be used for people in need. 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.

Donating blood is not difficult. 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. Most people are able to donate blood again in several months if they wish.

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. Donating blood is not only one of the easiest ways to save lives. It is also an easy way to help a community.

科目：初中英語 來源：2020年江蘇省淮安市淮陰區(qū)九年級(jí)中考模擬英語試卷試卷 題型：填空

A solar-powered airplane finished its first international flight from Switzerland to Belgium. This is a big step for solar power. Solar energy is clean and useful and you can find it everywhere. But what is solar energy? How do we use it? Let’s find out.

Have you ever seen houses with shiny boards on the roofs? Those families are using solar power.

Solar power converts (轉(zhuǎn)換) the sun’s energy which is said to be greater than the other energy used by all humans all the year. People can convert solar power into heat and electricity.

In the 1830s, British scientist John Herschel used a solar collector to cook food in Africa. This is said to be human’s first try at using solar energy. Today, people use it for many things.

Solar energy can light streets, warm houses and heat water. Unlike other resources, the sun’s energy will run out for billions of years.

Australian students from the University of New South Wales made a solar-powered car on their own. It reached a speed of 120 km per hour. The car uses the same amount of electricity as an oven (微波爐). Moreover, American scientists made a solar-powered nanosatellite (微型衛(wèi)星). Scientists sent it into space in 2012 to try to find Earth-like planets.

However, solar power has its problems. The amount of sunlight that reaches the Earth’s surface changes because of time and weather.

根據(jù)上面短文內(nèi)容填空。

1.It is _________ for a solar power when _________ flew from Switzerland to Belgium.

2.Solar power can be converted into _________ and it is _________ among all the energy people use all the year.

3.John Herschel, a scientist from _________ cooked food with a solar collector in Africa. And this is the first time for humans to _________.

4.Although solar energy can do many things for humans such as lighting streets, _________, people will _________ it billions of years later.

5.Australian students made a solar-powered car by _________ while American scientists made a nanosatellite which _________ into space in 2012.
