1. You have been badly injured in a car accident. It is necessary to

give you a blood transfusion because you lost a great deal of blood

in the accident. However, special care must be taken in selecting new

blood for you. If the blood is too different from your own, the

transfusion could kill you.

There are four basic types of blood: A, B, AB, and O. A simple test

can indicate a person''s blood type, which, like hair color and

height, is inherited from parents.

Because of substances contained in each type, the four groups must be

transfused carefully. Basically, A and B cannot be mixed. A and B

cannot receive AB, but AB may receive A or B. O can give to any other

group; hence, it is often called the universal donor. For the

opposite reason, AB is sometimes called the universal recipient.

However, because so many reactions can occur in transfusions,

patients usually receive only salt or plasma (liquid) until their

blood can be matched as exactly as possible in the blood bank of a

hospital. In this way, it is possible to avoid any bad reactions to

the transfusion.

There is a relationship between your blood type and your nationality. Among Europeans and

people of European ancestry, about 42 percent have type A while 45 percent have type O. The

rarest is type AB. Other races have different percentages. For example, some American Indian

groups have nearly 100 percent type O.

(1).

A good title for this passage is ________.

A. Getting Blood and Plasma

B. Special Blood Types

C. Human Blood Types

D.

The Blood Bank of a Hospital

(2).

The word

A. always

B. often

C. therefore

D.

seldom

(3).

In a blood transfusion, it is easiest to find the acceptable type of blood for a person with the

blood type of ________

A. A

B. B

C. AB

D.

O

(4).

The purpose of using salt and plasma before a blood transfusion is to allow time ______.

A. to test the reactions to the transfusion

B. for matching the blood to be transfused with the patient''s blood

C. for the blood to be delivered from the blood bank

D.

to select a new type of blood for the patient

(5).

Most Europeans have blood type _________

A. A

B. B

C. O

D.

A or O

2. In ancient times the most important examinations were spoken, not

written. In the schools of ancient Greece and Rome, testing usually

consisted of saying poetry aloud or giving speeches. In the European

universities of the Middle Ages, students who were working for

advanced degrees had to discuss questions in their Field of study

with people who had made a special study of the subject. This custom

exists today as part of the process of testing candidates for the

doctor''s degree.

Generally, however, modern examinations are written. The written

examination, where all students are tested on the same questions, was

probably not known until the nineteenth century. Perhaps it came into

existence with the great increase in population and the development

of modern industry. A room full of candidates for a state examination,

timed exactly by electric clocks and carefully watched over by

managers, resembles a group of workers at an automobile factory.

Certainly, during examinations teachers and students are expected to

act like machines.

One type of test is sometimes called an

personal opinions. To make up an objective test the teacher writes a series of questions, each of

which has only one correct answer. Along with each question the teacher writes the correct answer

and also three statements that look like answers to students who have not learned the material

properly.

(1).

In the Middle Ages students _______.
