24、Everybody hates rats. But rats may soon be man’s new good friends.

What happens after an earthquake? We send in rescue(援救)dogs. Why? Because they can smell people. Dogs save lives. They help rescuers to find living people. But dogs are big and they can’t get into small spaces. So now a new research project is using a smaller animal to save lives： the rat.

How does it work? First， the rat is trained to smell people. When this happens， the rat’s brain gives a signal(信号). This is sent to a small radio on its back， and then the rescuers follow the radio signals. When the rat’s brain activity jumps， the rescuers know that someone is alive. The rat has smelled that person.

Although there are already robots which can do this job， rats are better. “Robots’ noses don’t work well when there are other smells around. Rats are good at that.” Rats can also see in the dark， they are cheaper and quicker to train than dogs， and unlike robots， they don’t need electricity!

The “rat project” is not finished， but a scientist says， “It would be great. A rat could get into spaces we couldn’t get to， and a rat would get out if it wasn’t safe.” Perhaps for the first time in history， people will be happy to see a rat in a building (but only after an earthquake， of course).

Since many foreign tourists have known little about, here is some information about it.

An end and new beginning

By the time of Shuangjiang. most of the harvesting (丰收) work is already completed in northern China .Farmers are now able to enjoy a period of rest.

But in the south .the harvest is still in its best time, as farmers have to take home the sweet potatoes before they are destroyed by the coming frost.

Across the country, after year of farming, now it is time to plow the fields and prepare the soil for next year.

Enjoy the flaming red maple leaves (枫叶)

Nearly all the tourist websites list the best places for admiring the red maple leaves during this time, and many cities start to offer official routes for the best views of the leaves.

Appreciating in the view an old tradition starting in ancient times .Du Mu ,a well-known poet from the Tang Dynasty (618-907) described the mountainous scenery in a poem :“ stopped the coach as charmed by the maple woods ; Frosted autumn leaves outshine February flowers in redness.”

Best time to adjust (调整)to a healthy lifestyle

It is said that Shuangjiang is the best time to adjust to a nourishing (营养的) life, which reflects the belief that this is an important time to focus (关注) on health. "Keeping warm "should be dealt with first.

28、Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words (在短文的空格内填入适当的词，使其内容通顺，每空格限填一词，首字母已给)

How can you be sure that you know w【1】 you know? That may sound silly but it’s really a serious question. Have you ever “thought” you knew something but when it came time to write in the exam you discovered that you r【2】 didn’t “know” it, after all.

Strategies (策略) you can use

When that happens, it isn’t because you have a bad memory, it’s because the things you are trying to r【3】 haven’t been properly learned.

Luckily, there are strategies you can use to help you learn difficult things. And scientists say that there is even a part of your brain that can “predict” whether this new knowledge has been completely u【4】.

Judgement of learning

Scientists call this predicting, the “judgement of learning”. It really just means looking over your own shoulder w【5】 you are studying and asking yourself, “Do I really get this?” And if you don’t, it means adjusting your “strategy” until you do.

Here’s one strategy:

Set a short-term goal to learn something.

Study as you normally would.

Answer some test questions to g【6】 some feedback.

Use that feedback to work on your weak points.

In the driver’s seat

Developing the ability to “judge” your own learning needs a lot of p【7】. But it can be a very useful skill. It puts you in the driver’s seat and in charge of your own studies. In effect, it lets you know that you really know what you think you know. You know?
