If man’s best friend is a dog, then who is a dog’s best friend? That would be Rover, Glow, Ivan, or Raina. These four dogs donated (捐献) blood to other dogs. And they did it without having to travel far from home. They visited an animal bloodmobile (血液车).
Similar to the Red Cross vehicles for humans, the University of Pennsylvania’s animal bloodmobile goes to where the donors are to make it easier to give. Kym Marryott is manager of Penn’s Animal Blood Bank. “You don’t really think about it until you need it,” Marryott said. “Just like us, dogs need blood too.”
Like humans, not every dog can donate blood. Dogs must have the correct blood type, weigh at least 55 pounds and be younger than 8 years old. About 150 dogs take part in the program. Each donates three or four pints a year, which can help animals suffering from illnesses like cancer or an accidental trauma (意外伤) like being hit by a car. One pint can save up to three dogs. Just like people, the dogs get a snack and a heart-shaped “U of P Blood Donor” sticker after giving. In addition, they receive free dog food to take home.
Sandy Lucas brought her 7-year-old black dog, Raina, to the bloodmobile last week. “I was excited that she had the right blood which could help another dog out,” she said. “We’ll do it again.”

English has some apologetic terms (表示歉意的用语). It seems that they mean the same thing. They almost do. However, what’s the difference between “Excuse me”, “I’m sorry”, “Pardon”, and “What?”
Pardon
Americans don’t really use “pardon”. If you do, they will probably joke that you’re trying to sound pretentious (炫耀的) or joke that you’re British.
I’m sorry
We often use “I’m sorry” for past events. That’s to say, it is generally used to apologize for something you have already done. For example, if you step on someone’s foot on a crowded bus, you would say “I’m sorry” or “sorry”.
Excuse me
This is generally a term to ask permission (允许) for something. For example, you’re walking through a crowded space and someone is in your way. You would say “excuse me” to ask him to move out of your way.
What?
Americans usually use it to ask someone to repeat himself. If you want to be politer, you

could say, “I’m sorry, what was that?” or “Excuse me, what did you say?” or any other such thing. Most Americans will just say “What?” though.
In our daily life, we can also use these terms by mixing them up. You could, for example, ask someone to move by saying “Sorry, would you mind moving?” It’s an extra-polite way to make your request.
根据短文内容，回答下列问题。
41. Who say “pardon” more often, Americans or the British? 42. Which term is used for future events according to the passage? 43. When do Americans usually say “What?”
44. Imagine a situation to say “I’m sorry”.
45. What is the passage mainly about?
