NOTICE
A blood donation session will take place on our premises. A truck from the Blood Donation Centre will be parked in
front of the main building from December 8th to 12th. If you want to register for a donation, contact your head of
department who will arrange an appointment.
Blood Donation. A blood donation truly is a gift of life that you can give to others who are sick or injured. In less
than ten minutes, you can donate one unit of blood. The minimum age for donation is 18 and the upper age limit is
60. The minimum body weight for blood donation is 50 kg. You will be informed about other general donor
requirements on the day of the blood donation.”
Before You Donate. When you sign in, you will be asked to complete a donor registration form in order to check
that you meet the medical requirements to give your blood (questions about your health, lifestyle, and disease risk
factors). All of this information is confidential. The form also includes your name, address, phone number, and
various other types of demographic information, so you will be asked to fill it in even if you already have a donor
card. Next, an employee will perform a short medical exam, taking your pulse, temperature and blood pressure. A
drop of blood from your finger will also be tested to ensure that your blood iron level is sufficient for you to donate.
Blood Donation. After the pre-donation examination, you will proceed to a donor bed where your arm will be
cleaned with an antiseptic, and a professional will use a blood donation kit to draw blood from a vein in your arm.
During the donation process, you will donate one unit of blood ; this takes about six to ten minutes.
Post-Donation. Following your donation, you will receive beverage and food. If you feel light-headed, lie down until
the feeling passes. You can stay until you feel strong enough to leave.
If you have any questions concerning your donation, please contact us.

PART C:

THEMATIC TEXTS
( 20 questions)
Read the passage below for Question 121-125.
The coconut is an unusual food for many reasons. It is technically a seed, produced by the coconut palm tree,
and as such is one of the largest edible seeds produced by any plant. Its unusual contents also make it unique
in the seed world—the interior consists of both “meat” and “water.” The meat is the white pith with which we
are all familiar, as it is used extensively for cooking and flavorings; the coconut water is a white liquid that is
very sweet and thirst-quenching.
Portuguese explorers gave the nut its name in the 15th century, referring to it as coco, meaning “ghost” in
their language. The three dimples and the hairy texture reminded them of a ghost’s face, and the tree has
retained that name ever since.
The coconut has many varied uses. It is used to make margarine, as well as various cooking oils, and these
cooking oils are used by fast-food restaurants around the world to make such diet staples as French fries. The
coconut fluid is a favorite drink in hot climates, providing a cool and refreshing beverage right off the tree. This
water is also used by manufacturers of various sports drinks because of its isotonic electrolyte properties.
Even the shell itself has many uses, including cattle food and fertilizer.
Yet the coconut is also useful in many ways that have nothing to do with food. Coconut oil is used for
cosmetics, medicines, and can even be used in place of diesel fuel. Dried coconut shells are used in many
countries as a tool, such as a buffer for shining wood floors. The shells are also used for shirt buttons, and are
commonly found on Hawaiian clothing. They are even used for musical instruments and bird houses!
And all these are only some of the uses found for the coconut fruit. The coconut palm tree, which produces
the nut, also produces countless useful items. It’s no wonder that the coconut palm has been called “the tree
of life.”
