My jb is t train rats t find landmines (地雷) s the dangers can be cleared t save lives. I wrk fr a Belgian nn-gvernmental rganizatin called App that perates frm Mrgr, in my hme cuntry f Tanzania. The rats I train are used in mine-clearing prgrams arund the wrld, including in Angla, Azerbaijan and Cambdia.
The animals we use are a species f African giant rat called Cricetmys ansrgeis. They are brn in sub-Saharan Africa and are the size f a small cat, which makes them easy t catch. They als live lnger than ther rats, which is helpful fr the prgram, because it takes between nine mnths and a year t train ne fully.
My clleagues and I use a methd called clicker training: we teach the rats t relate a click with a fd reward, and then use clicks t gradually reward behaviur. Rats are naturally curius, s they will explre, and their great sense f smell means they can find buried landmines.
T teach the rats what t lk fr, we place small amunts f TNT explsives (炸药) in sme tea eggs and mix them with sme filled with ther things. We reward the rats fr tuching these, then mve n t reward them nly when they tuch a tea egg filled with explsives, rather than nes filled with ther things, such as hair, flwers and s n. The rats need t perfrm perfectly at each stage f training befre they mve t the next stage. In the final stage, we use real landmines in a training field.
As trainers, we build a cnnectin with the rats we train. Sme are slw learners; thers knw the prcess very quickly. Mst f the rats make it thrugh, eventually. I wrk with ur resident scientist t cntinually fllw and imprve ur training prgram, because the rats are s clever that they can be smarter than the trainers!
4. Why were Cricetmys ansrgeis chsen fr the prgram?
A. They can be seen cmmnly.
B. They’re easily accessible.
C. They’re quickly trained.
D. They live fr up t a year.
5. What’s the key f the training?
A. Making the rats explre actively.
B. Increasing the difficulty gradually.
C. Linking behavir and rewards.
D. Exercising rats sense f smell.
6. What can be inferred frm the training prcess?
A. Rats can find ut tea eggs with hair.
B. All rats perfrm perfectly.
C. Real landmines aren’t used in training.
D. The training wn’t stay the same.
7. Which is the best title fr the text?
A. Hw I Train Rats t Find Explsives
B. Why Giant Rats Can Be Useful
C. Hw Rats Cntribute t Life-saving

The impacts f smking n the immune system remain lng after a smker’s last smking, accrding t a study. The analysis is part f an effrt t determine why immune respnses vary s widely frm persn t persn. In additin t cigarette smking, the study fund that having a higher-than-average bdy mass index (体重指数) and having previusly been infected with a typical virus called cytmegalvirus (CMV,巨细胞病毒) als affect the immune respnse.
Bilgist Saint-André and her clleagues analysed bld samples and questinnaires cllected by the Milieu Intérieur Cnsrtium frm 1,000 healthy peple wh live in Brittany, France. The researchers expsed the bld samples t micrrganisms, viruses and s n knwn t activate the immune system. They then gauged the effect f them n the prductin f prteins called cytkines (细胞因子) , which regulate the bdy’s inflammatry (炎症的) respnses.
The authrs cmbined these results with infrmatin abut 136 persnal traits drawn frm ppulatin studies, envirnmental and clinical data. They fund that three factrs std ut as having particularly strng assciatins with cytkine respnses: cigarette smking, bdy mass index and previus cytmegalvirus infectin.
The data n cigarette cnsumptin were particularly striking; the effect f smking n cytkine respnses was as large as the effects f age, sex and genetics. And these effects remained fr years after participants had given up cigarettes.
But the study still needs t be repeated t ensure that the results are cnvincing, says Saint-Andre. And in future, it shuld include a mre diverse grup f participants. The team has nw expanded their study t include participants frm Senegal and Hng Kng, she says. The researchers have als gne back t the riginal participants, and have cllected fresh bld samples frm 415 f them 10 years after the riginal samples were taken.
“It wuld be valuable t learn mre abut hw smking influences immune cell functin, and, in turn, what the bdy’s respnses t infectin are,” says prfessr Lu. “That culd ffer valuable insights int the brader health cnsequences f smking.”
8. Hw did the researchers identify the three influencing factrs?
A. By repeating the study.
B. By cntrasting the persnal traits.
C. By referring t studies f ther fields.
D. By researching up t 136 peple.
9. Wh might have the wrst immune system accrding t the text?
A. Smene wh has quit smking fr many years.
B. Smene whse relatives have a smking habit.
C. Smene wh has a belw nrmal bdy mass index.
D. Smene wh lives with a CMV infected persn.
10. What did researchers d t ensure the results were CORRECT?
A. They invited mre participants f the same race.
B. They expanded their research all ver the wrld.
C. They gt n well with the riginal participants.
D. They restudied sme riginal participants years later.
11. What can we knw frm what Lu said?
A. It is useful and valuable t give up smking.
B. The result f the study is cmplete.
C. Smking has smething t d with infectin.
D. The study aids t learn the effects f smking.

Simply put, sul searching means the effrt t find meaning and purpse in life. It is abut uncvering the reasn fr ur existence and filling ur lives with clear purpse. Thugh nt a medical r cmmnly used term in psychiatry（精神病学）, sul searching represents a healthy frm f self-reflectin. Frm a psychlgical perspective, as explained by Natalie Rsad, the funder f Tampa Cnsulting Place, sul searching is a “deep intrspective（好内省的）prcess thrugh which an individual tries t gain insight int their deepest thughts, emtins, values, and beliefs”.
Peple wh d sul searching might d s t face unreslved cnflicts, gain a better understanding f their identity, and deepen their cnnectin with themselves and thers. It plays a vital rle in persnal grwth. By questining established patterns and lking fr change, ne creates rm fr imprvement.
Jurnaling is a valuable way fr sul searching. Writing abut daily experiences, thughts, and emtins can clarify ne’s feelings and mtivatins, revealing patterns r cnflicts that need attentin. Additinally, jurnaling is generally beneficial fr mental health. A 2022 study shwed that it reduced anxiety by 9%, PTSD（创伤后应激障碍）by 6%, and depressin by 2%.
We knw that sul searching can be challenging at times. “Sul searching can be tugh, and that’s cmpletely nrmal and kay,” Rsad says. It’s valid t feel that things are hard and that yu’re nt making much prgress. Many peple als end up feeling cnfused r verwhelmed. Rsad emphasizes the imprtance f being patient with neself, “There is n immutable timeline fr sul searching, and ging at yur wn pace can help yu mve frward smthly.”
“There are several ways t put sul searching int daily life, such as keeping a jurnal, taking lng walks in nature, and underging treatment. It can als be a natural part f yur rutine.” Rsad suggests seeing this prcess as smething natural and rganic rather than smething frced. Being mindful f yur values and true self naturally leads t persnal grwth. Having an attitude f discvery and intrspectin is psitive and can mtivate yu t becme the best versin f yurself.
12. Hw d peple make prgress by sul searching?
A. By dealing with difficulties.
B. By building their identity.

D. By challenging existent patterns.
13. Why is jurnaling gd fr self-reflectin?

D. It lwers the level f anxiety.
14. What des the underlined wrd “immutable” mean?
A. Fixed.B. Cmplex.C. Detailed.D. Crucial.
15. What can be implied frm what Rsad says in the last paragraph?

Jasn had always been passinate abut running. Frm the mment he culd remember, the thrill f the wind against his face and the rhythm f his feet hitting the grund filled him with a sense f purpse and jy. Ever since he was a child, he dreamt f participating in the city marathn and winning it.
In high schl, he enthusiastically jined the track team. He was full f hpe and determinatin, but his first race was a disaster.
