  What types of blood are needed？
     All types of blood are needed-not just rare ones．In fact，the commoner the blood type，the more are needed．So even if your blood is one of the most common types-group O for example-you can be sure that by donating three times a year，you really are doing something amazing．

  Who can become a blood donor？
     Becoming a blood donor really is very simple．As long as you're in good health and aged between 17 and 60，you can become a blood donor．If you would like more information or advice，or you want to become a blood donor，ring the donor helpline on 0845 7711．The donor helpline is open 24 hours a day-every day of the year．

• 2．Each time I see a balloon，my mind flies back to a memory of when I was a six-year-old girl．It was a rainy Sunday and my father had recently died．I asked my mom if Dad had gone to heaven．"Yes，honey．Of course．"she said．"Can we write him a letter？，
     She paused，the longest pause of my short life，and answered，"Yes．"My heart jumped．"How？Does the mailman go there？"I asked．
     "No，but I have an idea．"Mom drove to a party store and returned with a red balloon．I asked her what it was for．

     The balloon，carrying my letter，darted （猛冲）upward against the rain．We watched until it was swallowed by the mass of clouds．
     Later I realized，like the balloon，that Dad had never let his sickness get him down．He was strong．No matter what he suffered，he'd persevere，dart up，and finally transcend （超越）this cold world and his sick body．He rose into sky and became something beautiful．I watched until the balloon disappeared into the gray and white and I prayed that his strength was hereditary （遗传的）．I prayed to be a balloon．

• 3．Leonardo da Vinci，the greatest thinker in the world，began his career as an artist．Very little is known about his early life．He was born in 1452 in the town of Vince．As a boy，Leonardo showed a great interest in drawing，sculpting and observing nature．
     However，because he was born to parents who were not married to each other，he was barred from some studies and professions．He trained as an artist after moving to Florence with his father in the 1460s．It was an exciting time to be in Florence，one of the cultural capitals of Europe．Leonardo trained with one of the city's very successful artist，Andrea del Verrocchio．He was a painter，sculptor and gold worker．Verrocchio told his students that they needed to understand the body's bones and muscles when drawing people．
     Leonardo took his teacher's advice very seriously．He spent several period of his life studying the human body by taking apart and examining dead bodies．While training as an artist，he also learned about and improved on relatively new painting methods at the time．One was the use of perspective（透视）to show depth．A method called "sfumato" helped to create cloudy effect to suggest distance． "Chiaroscuro" is a method using light and shade as painterly effect．
     Leonardo's first known portrait now hangs in the National Gallery in Washington，D．C．He made this painting of a young woman named Ginerva de'Benci around 1474．The woman has a pale face with dark hair．In the distance，Leonardo painted the Italian countryside．
     He soon received attention for his extraordinary artistic skills．Around 1475 he was asked to draw an angel in Verocchio's painting Baptism of Christ．One story says that when Verocchio saw Leonardo's addition to painting，he was so amazed by his student's skill that he said he would never paint again．
  
  （1）The underline word "barred" in the second paragraph probably means

  ．
  A．protected
  B．prevented
  C．suffered
  D．chose

  a．He finished the painting of Ginerva de' Benci．

  （3）Which of the following words can be used to describe Leonardo according to the passage？

  
  A．Confident．

  C．Creative．
  D．Determined．
  （4）What can we learn from the last passage？
