The process can be of almost any kind, from manufacturing a tyre to creating an advertisement. Therefore, learning how to descr

25、ibe and explain a process in English is important. Its important for teachers, engineers and people who provide customers support. one process that we are all familiar with is our bodys circulatory system. This system provides oxygenated blood throughout the body and eliminates carbon dioxide which

26、is a waste product. If something goes wrong with this system, we need to repair it quickly, or we die. So its important to understand it and keep it functioning properly. First, the most important requirement for the system to work is a supply of air. Without fresh air with sufficient oxygen, the pr

27、ocess wont keep our healthy and alive. So the process begins by breathing in air which happens with long expand and drown in air. Once inside the lungs, oxygen in the air is exchanged for carbon dioxide in the blood. This exchange happens when blood cells release carbon dioxide and absorb oxygen. Th

31、 chamber. This chamber is called the left Atrium(左心房). From the left Atrium, the oxygenated blood is pumped to another chamber, the left Ventricle(左心室). The left ventricle then pumps the blood into the aorta(主动脉) which is the largest artery in the body. From the aorta, the oxygenated blood passes th

32、rough a network of smaller arteries throughout the entire body, including the brain. Blood returns to the heart through a system of veins and enters the upper right chamber, the right atrium.
