   World Kidney Day is on the 12th of March. It started in 2006 and has grown quickly. In its first year, 66 countries celebrated 1 it and two years later that number rose to 88. The day is a joint 2 venture of the International Society of Nephrology and the International Federation 3 of Kidney Foundations. The aim of the day is to raise awareness 4 about the importance of our kidneys. Campaigns and campaigners also want to highlight how harmful kidney disease is, and spread the message that most forms of kidney disease are treatable. Few of us ever stop to think about our kidneys. Perhaps even fewer know exactly what they are and what they do. Our two kidneys form an amazing organ that keeps our body healthy.


  世界肾脏日会在每年的3月12日召开。该节日开始于2006年,并迅速发展开来。举办之初,全球有66个国家庆祝了该节日,两年之后这一数字上升到了88个。它是国际肾脏病学会和国际肾脏基金联盟联合共同创立的。该节日的目的是为了提高人们对肾脏的重视程度。宣传活动和活动开展人士还希望人们提高对肾脏疾病危害的重视,让人们了解到绝大多数肾脏疾病是可以治愈的。很少有人会随时关注着我们的肾脏。或许,很少有人会对肾脏是什么,以及肾脏的功能有着确切的了解。人类的两个肾脏能够让我们保持身体健康。
  So just what are our kidneys and what do they do, exactly? They are (of course) kidney-shaped organs each about the size of an apple. They are located under our rib 5 cage, deep in our abdomen 6. Their main job is to keep our blood clean. They do this by filtering and removing poisons and excess water from our blood - 200 litres every day. They also help to control our blood pressure, and they produce red blood cells and keep our bones healthy. They’re pretty busy all the time. Kidney disease can affect anyone – about ten percent of us suffer from it. Most of us don’t know we have it because it rarely causes pain. If we have regular health and blood checks, doctors can quickly detect any disease early on and treat it.
  那么,肾脏究竟是什么,它们有什么作用呢?肾脏形状的器官大约与苹果一边大。它们位于胸腔的下部,深藏的腹部中。它们的主要工作就是清洁血液。它们过滤,转移血液中的有毒物质和过量水分,每天会过滤200公升。它们还帮助控制血压。制造红细胞,保持骨质健康。它们总是忙忙碌碌。肾脏疾病能够对我们所有人造成影响,有大约10%的人口会遭受肾病的困扰。但是绝大多数人都没有注意到它的存在,那是因为肾病很少会引起人们的疼痛感。如果我们定期进行健康和血液检查,那么医生会及时发现早期病症,并进行治疗。
