feeling of pain during the operation. The person a kind of sleep, and when he the operation is finished. But these happy an operation felt all his pain. Long ago, operation had usually to be done while the sick man could the doctors did their best for him. He could feel all the pain if his leg or arm was being cut off, and his fearful cries filled the room and the hearts of those who watched. Soon after 1770, Joseph Priestley discovered a gas which is now called "laughing gas". Laughing gas became known in America. Young men and women went to parties to try it. Most of them spent their time laughing, but one man at a party, Horace Wells, noticed that people didn't seem to feel pain when they were using this gas. He decided to make an experiment on himself. He asked a friend to help him. Wells took some of the gas, and his friend pulled out one of Well's teeth. Wells felt no pain at all. As he didn't know enough about laughing gas, he gave a man less gas than he should have. The man cried out with pain when his tooth was being pulled out. Wells tried again, but this time he gave too much of the gas, and the man died. Wells never forgot this terrible event.

当一个人不得不被外科医生开刀从身体里取出一部分的时候谁也不会高兴。然而，今天我们不再害怕手术中的疼痛。病人会处于熟睡状态，当他醒来时，手术已经结束了。而且这些好的条件已经深受大众所信任。

Unit 3 The meaning of colour

【美文阅读】

南非历经磨难才完成了独立 ，你知道其国旗颜色背后的意义吗？

The South African flag contains the colours of black，yellow，green，white，red and blue.The red，white and blue of the flag were carried over from the old flag，and represented the influence of the English and Dutch who first colonised the region.The red is not a true red，but a red/orange.This colour recalls the red of the Union Jack and Dutch flags and the orange of the previous flag，resulting in a combination of the two colours.Red and orange were both predominant colours in earlier South African flags.The black，green and gold are the colours of the southern African nations in general.The green theoretically reflects the unification of the various ethnic groups of southern Africa.

The colours on the flag have no meanings.However，the flag itself is a symbol of freedom and democracy，as it became the official South African flag after the first democratic election in 1994.

“Although the colors have no official meaning attached to them，they represent a synopsis of the country's vexillological history and current political realities.

Black，green and yellow are the colors of Nelson Mandela's political party.Moreover，the flag incorporates also the colors of the African National Congress and the former Boer republics flags (red，white，and blue)．The Y shape represents the convergence of South Africa's diverse society and unity.The South African flag is basically made up of former South African flags and the past meanings of the colors were that red stands for bloodshed，blue for open blue skies，green for the land，black for the black people，white for the European people and yellow for the natural resources such as gold.”

The Y or V form of the flag was chosen to symbolize the unity，or coming

together，of South Africa's different groups.
