Qinghai Red Cross Society Takes Active Part in Disaster Relief(救灾).The natural conditions in Qinghai are harsh(粗糙的),and its medicine and hygiene(健康)are backward.Therefore, the tasks faced by the local Red Cross workers are kind and warmhearted.In 1988, Nima was elected vice president of the Red Cross Qinghai Branch, and has instilled(慢慢的灌输)great vitality(活力)into this organization.
Nima is Tibetan(西藏人).She loves her hometown very much, and has always sincerely wanted to do something for victims, both in her hometown and elsewhere, of natural calamities(灾难).She is therefore devoted(投入)to her work at the Red Cross, and says that the Red Cross is a lofty(高高的)undertaking to which she will devote her whole life.Nima always takes the lead in donating(捐献)money and goods during disaster relief(慰问)activities.She once told her fellow Red Cross workers, “It does not seem much if you only donate one brick.But if everyone donates a brick, we can put up a wall.The purpose of the Red Cross is to pool the power of the general public to help the relatively few who are suffering.”By working hard herself, she inspires the Red Cross workers around her with her self-sacrificing(自我牺牲)spirit.“Since Nima came, people have began to realize the importance of the organization.She puts a sense of mission into people’s hearts, ”said Li Yuning, the deputy(代表)secretary-general of Qinghai Red Cross Branch.
Inside tents in remote(遥远的)pastoral areas, Red Cross members work tirelessly, giving treatment to herdsmen who have been hurt in natural disasters.
Lying in a remote and economically backward(经济落后)area, Qinghai Province itself is badly in need of aid.However, in the knowledge that people in other places hit by natural calamities(大灾难)have a greater need, the people of Qinghai do not hesitate to give their help.In recent years, the local people organized by the Red Cross have made great contributions to the victims(遇难者)of forest fires in the greater Hinggan mountains and earthquake-stricken areas, including Zhangbei and Hualian in.When the Yangtze, Songhuajiang and Nenjiang Rivers were flooded in 1998, the Red Cross Qinghai Branch donated 600 000-yuan-worth of money and materials, the largest donation(捐献)it has ever made.
[想一想]本文介绍的是青海省——中国西部经济不发达的地区在领导的带领下,如何将红十字会发展壮大的,并且如何献出他们的爱心的.当人们需要帮助和支援时,你是否能献出一点爱心?

“Four Tigers” Ceremony of the Tu MinorityHeigouding Village, Ledu County in the west of Qinghai province is a place where many people of the Tu minority have lived for centuries.As the little village is comparatively closed to the outside world, a custom called “Four Tigers” was created 200 years ago to protect its inhabitants(栖息地)from sickness and bad luck.
Every year the ceremony is held on the eve of January 15th according to the Chinese lunar calendar to frighten off ghosts and evil souls, and to pray for peace.
Normally four local villagers are selected to be the “tigers” in the ceremony.At first, they gathered with village elders at the mountain-god temple to offer sacrifices of wine, food and incense, and to ask the god to help the tigers.Then the tigers were adorned with herbs, candles and two batches of incense to serve as the tiger's ears.Two red ribbons held in their mouths represented the tiger's tongue.The “Tigers” drank wine, knelt and kowtowed to the mountain god before they received Hada, a kind of white silk scarf representing respects and good luck, from the village head with firecrackers crackling.
As night fell, the candles on the tigers’ bodies were lit and the tigers began their visits to one household after another.Villagers followed, shouting “Tigers are coming!” The elder from each household welcomed the tigers at the gate, while the rest of the family knelt down in the courtyard.Firecrackers were set off, a toast made and candies, meat and wine were presented to the villagers following the tigers.After twirling(快速转动)in three circles in the courtyard while those present kowtowed and prayed, the tigers went through every corner of every room to drive away any hiding ghosts.If there was a sick person in the house, the tigers jumped around him or her, scratched their body and said lucky words to drive away diseases and ghosts.After the ceremony, the family would present wine and food to the tigers.Then, shouting “The tigers are leaving!” the whole family saw them off.
After visiting all 30 or 40 households, the herbs were removed from the tigers and burned, to indicate that all the ghosts had been conquered.Then the villagers knelt and kowtowed with the sound of firecrackers, marking the end of the ceremony.
The tiger image exists in other minority groups, also.In ancient times, people entrusted their happiness to gods.The “four tigers” ceremony is vividly held in memory of ancient times and a living fossil for academics studying the lives of ancient people.As it is not popular nowadays, this cultural heritage is on the edge of extinction and needs to be rescued.
