Have you even seen fireflies? You can't see them in any season except summer. The lights made by fireflies are probably one of the most magical things to see on a summer night. Do you wonder how fireflies make this light?
There is a part that can make light under a firetly's stomach. Fireflies take in air and use it to produce light with special cells （细胞）. Different kinds have their own special flash patterns, just like humans have different languages. They use these flash patterns to find other members of their group.
Fireflies mainly use the light to get friends' attention. The males （雄性） fly around while turning their lights on and off, hoping to get the attention of a female. They try to flash very quickly, because the faster males flash, the more attention they can get from females. Fireflies also use the light to make their enemies scared.
If you haven't seen many fireflies lately, you are not alone. The number of fireflies may bed ropping because of some reasons, such as light pollution and chemical medicine use. Another important reason is that fireflies' living places are destroyed by humans. Luckily, Chinese scientists recently found three new firefly kinds in Yunnan. Yunnan might have the right environment for these magical insects to live in.

Facial recognition technology （人脸识别技术） is widely used today. For example, the police use it to search for bad guys. It's also used to unlock phones or doors.
Now, a similar technology, known as facial detection（探测）, is entering a new field: the business of advertising（广告）.
Such systems are going through tests in a small number of stores. One facial detection system can judge （判断） a person's "happiness" or "fear" level. Another system can detect whether someone is wearing eyeglasses. If so, stores can send advertisements for new glasses to him.
Facial detection technology is also placed inside some large advertising boards. Cameras in those boards can detect（探测） information like people's ages and five levels of feelings - from "very happy" to "very unhappy".
Supporters of the technology say it could improve buyers' experience by showing products they might like or by offering them products at lower prices.
Some are against the idea of using such systems. Pam Dixon, the head of a privacy（隐私） group, s one of them. She thinks the strange actions may cause something unfair. For example, a store could raise the price of a product according to a person's age and feelings.
However, one store testing the technology explained people's information like names or ages wouldn't be stored. And the advertising board system maker said it didn't keep any personal information or record any videos.
Seeing blood in a horror movie might make you cover your eyes, but real blood isn't scary at all. 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 （捐赠） centers. 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.
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. 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. It is also an easy way to help a comm unity.
A. Donating blood is not difficult. B. Then the blood can be used for people in need. C. In fact, blood is the gift of life and keeps us alive. D. Donating blood is not only one of the easiest ways to save lives. E. Most people are able to donate blood again in several months if they wish. |
International Coffee Day falls on October I every year. This holiday is used to promote（推广） and celebrate coffee as a popular drink. Do you like coffee? And do you know who invented it? There are many interesting stories about the origins of coffee. One of them is about the Ethiopian goat herder（牧羊人） Kaldi. One day, his goats ate berries from a tree. The man noticed that the animals became very active as a result. After Kaldi told the local monks（僧侣） about this, the monks made a drink from the berries. The drink helped them stay up late for prayers（祈祷）. They then kept drinking it. That berry tree later became known as the coffee tree.
Another story tells of a man named Omar from an ancient city. He was once driven into a desert. The man was very hungry and chewed（咀嚼） some berries from a tree. The berries, however, were too bitter. Omar tried to roast（烘烤） the berries to make them taste better, but in the end they became too hard to chew. So he decided to boil them to make the berries soft. The man ended up creating a brown drink from them. After drinking it, he felt spirited. When Omar later traveled to Mocha（摩卡）, he brought this "magical drink" to the city.
Which story do you believe? But anyway, the stories of coffee all ended the same way: The world has had this nice drink to enjoy! It seems that many people all over the world drink coffee. Coffee lovers say that coffee is good for both health and business. What's your idea?
