Trang 3The architecture of the Forbidden City conforms rigidly to traditional Chinese principles All buildings within the walls follow a north-south line and the most important ones face south to honor the sun The designers arranged the other buildings, and the ceremonial spaces between them, to impress all visitors with the great power of the Emperor, while reinforcing the insignificance of the individual This architectural concept was carried out to the smallest detail For example, the importance of a building was determined not only by its height or width but also by the style of its roof and the quantity of statuettes placed on the roof’s ridges
In recognition of the importance of its unparalleled architecture, UNESCO added the palace
to its World Heritage List in 1987 Today, visitors from all over the world do not wait for an
imperial invitation to walk about this palace, now a museum of imperial art
One of the most impressive landmarks of the Forbidden City is the Meridian Gate, the formal entrance to the southern side of the Forbidden City The gate, with its auxiliary wings on either side of the entryway, is 38 meters high at its roof ridge When you stand in front of this majestic structure, you understand how awed people felt when they stood there listening to
imperial proclamations
As you walk through the gate, you come into a large courtyard, 140 meters long and 210 meters wide Running through the courtyard is the Golden River, which is crossed by five parallel white marble bridges These bridges lead to the Gate of Supreme Harmony, which, in turn, leads to the heart of the Forbidden City At the northernmost end of the Forbidden City
is the Imperial Garden, which is totally different from the rest of the compound Instead of
rigid formality, you see a seemingly spontaneous arrangement of trees, fishponds,
flowerbeds, and sculpture Here is the place of relaxation for the emperor
Question 23: According to the passage, what do the bridges over the Golden River lead to?
A The Meridian gate B The Gate of Supreme Harmony
C The Imperial Gardens D The center of Beijing

People have been donating blood since the early twentieth century to help accident victims
and patients undergoing surgical procedures Usually a pint of whole blood is donated, and it
is then divided into platelets, white blood cells, and red blood cells People can donate blood (for red blood cells) about once every two months Transfusing the blood from the donor to the recipient is straightforward It involves taking the blood from a donor’s arm vein by means of a hypodermic syringe The blood flows through a plastic tube to a collection bag or bottle that contains sodium citrate, which prevents the blood from clotting When the blood is given to a patient, a plastic tube and hypodermic needle are connected to the recipient's arm

The blood flows down from the container by gravity This is a slow process and may last as long as 2 hours to complete the infusion of blood into the recipient The patient is protected from being infected during the transfusion Only sterile containers, tubing, and needles are used, and this helps ensure that transfused or stored blood is not exposed to disease causing bacteria Negative reactions to transfusions are not unusual The recipient may suffer an
allergic reaction or be sensitive to donor leukocytes Some may suffer from an undetected
red cell incompatibility Unexplained reactions are also fairly common Although they are rare, other causes of such negative reactions include contaminated blood, air bubbles in the blood, overloading of the circulatory system through administration of excess blood, or
sensitivity to donor plasma or platelets Today, hospitals and blood banks go to great lengths
to screen alt blood donors and their blood All donated blood is routinely and rigorously tested for diseases, such as HIV, hepatitis B, and syphilis When the recipient is a newborn or
an infant, the blood is usually irradiated to eliminate harmful elements Donated blood is washed, and the white blood cells and platelets removed Storing the blood sometimes requires a freezing process To freeze the red blood cells, a glycerol solution is added To unfreeze the, the glycerolis removed The ability to store blood for long periods has been a boon to human health
