Having a blood y nose can make some people nervous, but in most cases, nosebleeds(流鼻血) are easy to stop and not so serious. Around three out of five people will have a bloodynose in their lifetime. Nosebleeds mostly happen among children from 2 to 10 years old and among adults aged 50 to 80.

◆What causes a bloody nose?

Most nosebleeds are caused by picking the nose and dry air. Blowing your nose too often when you have a cold can also lead to nosebleeds. All of these break the tiny vessels(血管) inside the nose, causing them to bleed. Causes of more serious nosebleeds include a head injury, a genetic disease, or, in some cases, a tumor.

◆How to stop a bloody nose right away?

You may know how to stop a blood y nose right away, but it's important to do it properly and safely.

Always sit up straight when your nose is bleeding, and never lie on your back. One of the biggest mistakes in first aid is that you should lean(倾斜) back with a bloody nose, but the best thing to do is leaning forward. The blood needs to go somewhere, and if the person leans back or lies down, it will most likely go down his throat, possibly causing choking(窒息). And try not to put something into your nose.

Pinching(捏住) the nose properly stops or slows the bleeding. Hold the nose for at least five minutes. Do not let go to check for bleeding until at least the first five minutes are up. If you can, keep pinching for longer.

After five minutes, see if the bleeding has stopped. If not, pinch again, but keep it up for 10 minutes this time. Remember: Don't let go to check for bleeding until the 10 minutes are up. If bleeding doesn't stop after that time, pinch it for another 10 minutes if necessary.

Remember that if you can't stop the nosebleed with these ways, see a doctor immediately.

◆What not to do after a bloody nose?

After a light nosebleed, do not lie down until 20 minutes later, but at least 30minutes or even an hour later after a bad nosebleed. Don't lift heavy things or pick your nose for a day. You should not blow your nose for at least two days.

（1）、What can we learn from Paragraph 1?

A、Usually, a nosebleed is a very serious thing. B、Children as young as 5 may often get nosebleeds. C、Nosebleeds happen less often among adults over the age of 50. D、About 60% of people don't have nosebleeds in their lifetime.

（2）、Which is the right way to stop a nosebleed?

A、Pinch your nose as hard as you can. B、Just pinch your nose for five minutes. C、Pin ch the nose more than once as needed. D、Check your nose for bleeding as soon as possible.

（3）、Which is the right body position for a bloody nose?

A、

B、

C、

D、

（4）、Why does the writer write the passage?

A、To tell people what causes nosebleeds. B、To call on people to get first-aid training. C、To show people the importance of first aid. D、To tell people what to do with a nosebleed.

If you want to be a better reader, what should you know about the speed of reading?

Some people read very quickly and others read very slowly. But which one is better?

The quick reader may be a good reader when he reads a storybook for fun. But he may not be able to slow down to read instructions (说明书) carefully. The slow reader may be a good reader. But he may spend too much time reading a story for fun. So the reader who reads everything quickly or the one who reads everything slowly isn't really a good reader.

Knowing why you are reading or what you are reading can help you to know whether (是否) you need to read quickly or slowly. Some things should be read slowly. You must read these things slowly all the time to understand and remember everything important. Example are instructions for making or doing something. Also, math books, science and even some storybooks are full of important information（信息）. However, some things should be read quickly. Examples are picture-books for fun, letters from friends, and some quick news from newspapers.

In some of your reading, you must change（改变） your speed from fast to slow and slow to fast. You will need to read some pages quickly and then slow down and do more carefully reading when you come to important ideas. So, knowing when to change your reading speed is one important symbol of being a good reader.

One day, some tourists came to a hotel but there were only two rooms left. One was on the fourth floor and the other was on the seventh floor.

"We Chinese like the number 8. 8 means we will get rich. We also like 9 because it means we can live long. But we don't like the number 4 because it sounds like ‘death' in Chinese. I think if we sleep on the fourth floor, we may die."

The Greeks said, "We want the room on the fourth floor. In Greece, 4 is a lucky number."

The South Korean said, "We don't like number 4 or 13. 4 sounds like ‘death' and 13 is an unlucky number in the west."

The tourists from the west said, "Oh, we love number 7. There are seven days in the world as it says in the Bible (圣经). We don't like the number 13. It is an unlucky number. If we sleep on the 13th floor, ..."

"In Japan, 4 sounds like ‘death', so we don't like it. And 6 is also not welcome. There isn't the fourth floor or the sixth floor in the tall buildings in our country. However, we like 7 very much", said the Japanese.

At last, only the Greeks lived on the 4th floor, and the rest slept on the 7th floor.
