3.Find ways to respond to a major disaster
When natural disasters like hurricanes and earthquakes happen,there's always a great need for coordinated(协调的) disaster relief and recovery.(36)E.
Volunteer
To take a hands-on approach to disaster recovery,volunteer your time and talents.You can travel to the affected regions to provide support.(37)F.It is recommended that you volunteer through one of the professional organizations for your safety and your skills can be put to best use.
Donate money
Disaster victims often have lost their homes or need to relocate.In many cases,your money is just as valuable as your physical presence in helping with relief efforts.Many organizations provide temporary housing,food and other items for victims.(38)G.Even organizations like the Red Cross have been criticized for how donated funds have been allocated(分配).
Donate blood
If you can't travel and don't feel comfortable giving money,a need for donated blood always existed.The Red Cross and local medical organizations manage blood supplies that are important to disaster victims.Call the Red Cross to schedule an appointment.(39)D.
(40)A.
Goods are valuable in stricken areas.Building materials and donations of bottled water or household items can be placed on trucks and taken to the disaster areas.It is the best to allow the professional organizations to coordinate these donation efforts and see that the needed supplies reach a location where they will be best used for recovery.

A.Send needed items.
B.Make preparations.
C.A lot of people are skillful at organizing local response.
D.Or look out for a blood drive in your area.
E.Whether disaster has occurred at home or abroad,you can help.
F.And you can do everything from providing first aid to rebuilding homes in these areas.G.Before giving,though,make sure you trust the organization receiving your money.

13.There is an English saying,"(71)F"Until recently,few people took the saying seriously.Now however,doctors have begun to look into laughter and the effects it has on the human body.(72)G Tests were carried out to study the effects of laughter on the body.People watched funny films while doctors checked their heart,blood pressure,breathing and muscles.It was found that laughter has similar effects to physical exercise.(73)D If laughter exercises the body,it must be beneficial.
Other tests have shown that laughter appears to be able to reduce the effect of pain on the body.In one experiment doctors produced pain in groups of students who listened to different radio programs.The group that tolerated the pain for the longest time was the group which listened to a funny program.(74)C
(75)BThey have found that even if their patients do not really feel like laughing,making them smile is enough to produce beneficial effects similar to those caused by laughter.

A.Laughter can surely last one's life.
B.As a result of these discoveries,some doctors in the United States now hold laughter clinics,in which they help to improve their patients'condition by encouraging them to laugh.
C.The reason why laughter can reduce pain seems to be that it helps to produce a kind of chemical in the brain which diminishes both stress and pain.
D.It increases blood pressure,makes the heart beat quicker and makes people breathe deeper; it also works several groups of muscles in the face,the stomach,and even the feet.
E.They have proved that laughter can really cure any disease if people keep a good state of mind.
F.Laughter is the best medicine.
G.They have found that laughter really can improve people's health.

12.A strong memory depends on the health and vitality (活力) of your brain.They say that you can't teach an old dog new tricks,but when it comes to the brain,scientists have discovered that this old saying simply isn't true.(36)G
Give your brain a workout.Memory,like muscular strength,requires you to"use it or lose it".The more you work out your brain,the better you'll be able to process and remember information.(37)F
Don't skip the physical exercise.While mental exercise is important for brain health,that doesn't mean you never need to break a sweat.Physical exercise helps your brain stay sharp.It increases oxygen to your brain and reduces the risk for disorders that lead to memory loss.
Get enough sleep.There is a big difference between the amount of sleep you can get by on and the amount you need to function at your best.(38)E
Keep stress in check.Stress is one of the brain's worst enemies.Over time,stress destroys brain cells.Studies have also linked stress to memory loss.
Have a laugh.(39)C That holds true for the brain and the memory,as well as the body.Unlike emotional responses,which are limited to specific areas of the brain,laughter engages multiple regions across the whole brain.
(40)AJust as the body needs fuel,so does the brain.You probably already know that a diet based on fruits,vegetables,whole grains,"healthy"fats and lean protein will provide lots of health benefits,but such a diet can also improve memory.For brain health,though,it's not just what you eat-it's also what you don't eat.

A.Eat a brain-boosting diet.
B.Play games with memory.
C.Laughter is the best medicine.
D.But oversleeping is not good for your brain.
E.Even skipping a few hours makes a difference!
F.You have to shake things up from time to time!
G.The human brain has an astonishing ability to adapt and change.
