21、 Nowadays there are many people going from villages or small towns to big cities to realize their dreams, but there are also people doing the opposite.
Janet Lincoln moved to St. Louis five years ago. Here’s what she said.
“I used to live in a small town called Bertrand. I grew up there. After I graduated from high school, I worked in a supermarket. There were about 800 people in my town, and I knew most of them. Most of them knew me, too. At the age of 21, I got a chance and moved to St. Louis. I love it. I don’t know as many people now as I used to, but that’s OK. I live in an apartment and have a few good friends. There are a lot of fun things to do in the big city.”
Troy Henson has the opposite experience. He, his wife and their two children moved from St. Louis to Bloomfield three years ago. Here’s what Troy said:
“Both Darla and I grew up in St. Louis. We met at college and got married. Then the kids came along and life got difficult. We didn’t know any of our neighbors. We both had good jobs, and we were always very busy. But it seemed there was never enough money. That all changed when we moved to Bloomfield.

22、 There are about 80,000,000 mines (地雷) under the ground in more than 60 countries. It is difficult and dangerous to clear these mines. About 50 people including many children were killed or hurt each day. In 2003, APOPO, a Dutch research company that trains the animals, came up with the idea of using rats to search for the mines.
The animal trainers found that a kind of rats from Africa were clever and had a sharp sense of smell. The rats were about 75 cm long and weighed about 1.35kg, light enough to run across a minefield without setting off the mines.
In January 2004, the APOPO started this project. First, the trainers let the 4-week-old baby rats get familiar with humans. A few weeks later, the rats were not afraid of people and the things around them anymore. Then they were trained to connect a click sound with food. After the rats had learned that, the trainers then taught them to tell the difference between the smell of mines and other smells. When the rats could do it, the click was sounded and they were given a bit of banana. The method was called clicker training. "The training isn't easy," said trainer Abdullah Mchomvu. "You have to be patient. Sometimes I get angry, but then again, I tell myself these are animals".
After nine months' training, the rats were taken to a minefield. They ran across the minefield, stopped, sat and searched the ground to tell the domineers (排雷员) that they smelt out a mine. Then the mine was cleared. It had taken two domineers a day to clear a 200 ㎡ minefield, but with the help of two rats they could finish it in two hours.
The rats and the domineers saved thousands of lives, "The rats did this job much better than we expected. So far they have helped to make almost 2,000,000 ㎡of land safe. "They are heroes". Said Bart Weetjens, the head of the APOPO.

C.People can train the rats to help them clear mines.

23、 It's important to have positive feelings in our daily life. Compared with some unhappy people, those who are always pleased and relaxed are less likely to get colds, according to a new study. The researchers from New York University said, " Being happy helps the bodies prevent diseases(疾病).
"It seems that positive feelings may reduce the possibility of illness," said the researcher Sheldon Cohen.
In an earlier study, Cohen's team interviewed 193 adults every day for two weeks. In this period, the people told researchers about their happy or sad feelings that day. Two weeks later, all of them were made to catch colds by doctors, and each of them had to stay alone in a room for six days.
The results showed that each in the study was equal to fall ill. But people who were lively and relaxed said they felt happy during the research. Their illnesses were less serious and lasted for shorter time.
Cohen believes that when people have positive feelings, their body may produce a kind of chemical that helps to fight illnesses. So if you care about your health, please look on the bright side and make yourself happy all the time.

【1】The people with positive feelings are more likely to suffer from colds.
