Years ago, I lived in a building in a large city. The flat next door was only a few feet away from mine. There was a woman who lived there, whom I had never met, yet I could see her sit by her window each afternoon, sewing or reading.
After several months had gone by, I began to notice that her window was dirty. Everything seen through the dirty window was unclear. I would say to myself,“I wonder why that woman doesn't wash her window. It really looks terrible."

People just need to spend under 100 yuan to have a quiet study space for a day.
Some used the rooms to prepare for their examinations, and some took online classes or sought for a quiet working place.

Natural disasters like earthquakes and storms can pull down buildings easily. It's difficult for the search and rescue teams to find those who are trapped in the fallen buildings.
But an unlikely assistant(助手), mice, is being trained to help out. The project, started by Belgian APOPO, is planning to tie tiny, high-tech backpacks to mice to help search for survivors(幸存者).
“Mice like to explore and that is key to search and rescue,” said Donna Kean, a scientist and leader of the project, “Besides, their small size and excellent sense of smell make them perfect for locating things in small spaces."
The mice are being trained in a basic environment at present. They must first locate the target(目标) person in an empty room, pull a switch that starts an alarm on their clothes, and then return home, where they are given a treat.
For the next part of training, Kean said the team would create“disaster-similar areas”.Once the mice are confident in these areas, the project will move to Turkey for further preparation in more real environments. If that goes well, the mice would probably enter real-life situations.
The mice are still in the early progress of training. And APOPO is working with the Eindhoven University of Technology to develop a backpack with a video camera, a two-way microphone, and a locating tool to help communicate with survivors.
“Together with the backpack and the training, the mice are very useful for search and rescue " said Kean.“Even if our mice find just one survivor, we would be happy to know they have made a difference somewhere.
37. Why are mice chosen for search and rescue according to the passago
①Because they enjoy exploring.
②Because they have small sizes.
③Because they are good at smelling.
④Because they can see clearly in the dark.
A①②③ B.①③④ C.②③④ D.①②④
Which paragraph tells how the mice are trained
A. Paragraph 2. B. Paragraph 3. C.Paragraph 4. D.Paragraph 5
39.What can we learn from the passage
A. Donna Kean is a survivor in an earthquake.
B.APOPO scientists haven't invented the high-tech backpack.
C. The mice are being trained in real-life situations.
D. The mice are often given a treat before they complete the task.
40.What does Donna Kean think of the project
A.Strange. B.Funny. C.Hopeful. D.Impossible.

Five Ways to Build Self-Confidence
·Walk Faster
One of the easiest ways to tell how a person feels about herself is to examine her walk. People with confidence walk quickly. They have places to go, people to see, or important work to do._______41_______Walking 25% faster will make you look and feel more important.
·Create a Personal Speech
One of the best ways to build confidence is listening to an inspiring speech. Unluckily, opportunities to listen to a great speaker are few. You can fill this need by creating a personal commercial. Write a 30-60 second speech that focuses on your strengths and goals._______42_______
·Sit in the Front Row
In schools, offices and some other public places, people always sit at the back of the room._______43_______This reflects a lack of self-confidence. By deciding to sit in the front row, you can get over this meaningless fear and build your self-confidence.
·Speak Up
During group discussions many people never express their opinions because they're afraid that people will judge them for their saying something stupid.44__Bymaking an effort to express your opinions at least once in every group discussion, you will become a better public speaker, more confident in your own thoughts and recognized as a leader by your peers (同龄人).
·Work Out
_______45_______ If you're too fat or too thin, you'll feel unsafe, unattractive, and tired. By making your body fit and strong, you improve your physical appearance, refresh yourself, and make more achievements.
Physical fitness has a huge influence on self-confidence.
B.In fact, most people are dealing with the same fear.
C. Even if you aren’t in a hurry, you can increase your self-confidence by speeding up.
D. Most people prefer that because they are afraid of being noticed.
E. Then read it aloud in front of the mirror whenever you need more confidence.
