      We are all busy talking about and using the Internet ,but how many of us know about the history of the Internet?

      Many people are surprised when they find that the Internet was set up in the 1960s.At that time, computers were large and expensive. Computer networks(网络)didn' t work well .If one computer in the network broke down, then the whole network stopped. So a new network system(系统) had to be set up. It should be good enough to be used by many different computers. If part of the network was not working, information could be sent through another part. In this way the computer network system would keep on working all the time. At first, the Internet was only used by the government, but, in the early 1970s, universities, hospitals and banks were allowed to use it too.

    However, computers were still expensive and the Internet was difficult to use. By the start of the 1990s, computers become cheaper and easier to use. Scientists had also developed software(软件) that made “surfing(浏览)” the Internet more convenient (方便).

    Today it is easy to get on-line and it is said that millions of people use the Internet every day. Sending e-mail is more and more popular among students.

In Tongren, Guizhou, there are two special kinds of monkeys: theGuizhou golden snub-nosed monkey and the Francois'langur. {#blank#}1{#/blank#}

The Guizhou golden snub-nosed monkey is very rare. There are only around 800 of them in the world, and they all live in the FanjingMountain National Nature Reserve(自然保护区). This kind of monkey has an upturned nose and yellow hair on its head. {#blank#}2{#/blank#}So, if you visit Fanjing Mountain during the breeding season, you might see mothers carrying their cute golden babies.

{#blank#}3{#/blank#}There are about 2,000 of them in the world, and one-third of them live in the MayangRiver National Nature Reserve. Baby Francois' langurs are also golden when they are born. But when they turn one year old, their backs become black, and they grow a black"mohawk"on their heads. {#blank#}4{#/blank#}At night, they hide in caves to sleep. The special rocks and landforms in theMayang River National Nature Reserve make it a perfect home for them.

{#blank#}5{#/blank#}They are precious and need our care and attention. Through pictures and videos, you can learn more about them and help protect them for future generations.

Seeing blood in a horror movie might make you cover your eyes,but real blood isn't scary at all. {#blank#}1{#/blank#} That's why blood donors are considered lifesavers. 

Blood donors are those giving blood﹣usually about 200 ml at a time﹣to blood banks or blood donation(捐赠)centers. {#blank#}2{#/blank#}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. 

{#blank#}3{#/blank#}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. {#blank#}4{#/blank#}. 

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. {#blank#}5{#/blank#}It is also an easy way to help a community. 

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.
