Every year on 15th October, over 200 million people around the world take part in Global Handwashing Day. But why do we have a day for something we do all the time? Well, research shows that not enough people often wash their hands with soap. It is believed that this leads to the deaths of millions of people every year.
What’s more, the study from the US Department of Agriculture shows most people failed to wash their hands and rub (擦) with soap for 20 seconds. That’s the amount of time recommended by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, which says that washing for shorter periods means fewer germs (细菌) are washed off.
The study also states that quite many people didn’t dry their hands with a clean towel or air dryer.
Sidibe, a public health officer says soap is the most beautiful invention in public health. Washing your hands with soap can have a huge impact on reducing the spread of diseases. It can also prevent babies from getting ill and keep children healthy.
However, washing hands with soap does not happen as often as you might think. For many people, handwashing is simply not part of their everyday life. It’s not easy to get people to change habits they learned in early childhood.
So what’s the right way to wash hands? There are some tips:
Step 1: Wet hands with clean, running water.
Step 2: Turn off the tap and apply soap after wetting hands with water.
Step 3: Rub hands together with the soap for at least 20 seconds. Be sure to rub the backs of hands, between fingers, and under fingernails.
Step 4: Wash hands well under clean, running water.
Step 5: Dry hands with a clean towel or air dryer.
In 2008 the Indian sports team joined around 100 million Indian schoolchildren in washing their hands with soap on the first ever Global Handwashing Day. Since then, many different events have been held around the world every year.
Today, local and national leaders continue to use the day to spread the message about the importance of clean hands. The hope is that handwashing with soap becomes a necessary part of people’s lives and improves the health of millions around the world.

More and more people are taking part in dangerous sports and activities around the world now. Some have climbed the highest mountains, travelled into unknown parts of the world and others have sailed in small boats across the greatest seas.
I would think bungee jumping to be a good example of such an activity. You jump from a high place (perhaps a bridge or a hot-air balloon) 200 metres above the ground with an elastic (有弹性的) rope tied to your feet. You fall at up to 150 kilometres an hour until the rope stops you from hitting the ground. It is said that over 2 million people around the world have now tried bungee jumping. Other dangerous activities like jumping from tall buildings and jumping into the water from the top of high places.
Why do people take part in such activities as these? Some scientists think that it is because life in modern world has become safe and boring. Not very long ago, people’s lives were often poor. They had to go out and hunt for food, illnesses could not easily be cured, and life was harder than that of the present days.
Nowadays, to many people, life gives little excitement. They live and work safely; they buy food in shops; and there are doctors and hospitals to look after them if they become ill. The answer for some of these people is to look for danger in activities such as bungee jumping.
1.How many people have now tried bungee jumping?
A. Less than two million. B. More than two million.
C. About two million. D. Two million
2.In bungee jumping, you __________.
A. jump as high as you can B. fall at up to 150 miles an hour
C. tie yourself to a rope and fall to the ground D. fall towards the ground without a rope
3.People probably take part in dangerous sports nowadays because __________.
A. they have a lot of free time B. they can go to hospital if they are injured
C. there is not much excitement in their lives D. they no longer need to hunt for food
4.What is the best title of this passage?
A. Modern Life is Boring B. Need for Excitement

Pandas live in the forests and mountains of Southwest China. There are only about 1600 pandas in the wild today. Zoos and research centers are looking after about 340 pandas. Pandas do not have many babies, and baby pandas often die. The situation is getting very difficult. Scientists are doing a lot of research to help pandas produce more babies and help baby pandas live.
Each panda needs to eat a lot of bamboo every day. The bamboo forests are getting smaller, so pandas are losing their home.
In order to protect pandas in the wild, the government is setting up nature parks and developing other plans. The nature parks will be big and there will be more bamboo to feed the pandas. Pandas born in zoos may go back to live in the nature parks.
