Last month, our class participate in the school poster exhibition with the topic "We Love Science". We had a memorably experience together. Having informed of the activity, we put forward ideas about the contents of the poster. After a brief discussion, we agreed on the subjects of AI and 5G.

No time was wasted and we tried to make a full prepare for it. We first went to the school library to research the history and development of the two fields. When realizing that the library couldn't supply us for enough information about the technologies, we turned to our teacher, whom proved to be a valuable resource and gave us lots of practical advice. With the material was collected, we set about making our poster. Each of us was assigned different tasks, to which we devoted all their efforts. On the day of an exhibition, our designed poster attracted many attention. A lot of students gathered in front of our poster, appreciating our work.

Have a go in Guizhou

Listed among the 52 places to go in the world by the New York Times in 2017 and "one of the most worthy regions in China” by CNN in 2018, Guizhou province has become a 1.(promise) travel destination.

On Oct 22, it made another big list. Lonely Planet 2. (rank) it among the top 10 regions to visit in 2020.

With its 3. (locate) in southwest China, Guizhou has been praised by CNN as one of China's “natural jewels". The landlocked (内陆的) region has beautiful mountains, lovely lakes and distinctive karst (喀斯特)landforms.

Visitors can see an amazing view of 700,000 cherry trees in bloom in March. The area also boasts Asia's tallest waterfall, Huangguoshu, and Asia's longest cave, Shuanghe Cave. The China Tour Guide website calls Guizhou an unforgettable "wonderland".

Along with this beautiful scenery, a unique local culture also makes it 4. (particular) eye-catching. "It's a good place to experience authentic minority cultures in China,” the domestic travel agency China Highlights noted. Guizhou is home 5. 17 aboriginal ethnic groups, the Miao, Dong, Shui, Gelao, Yi and Tujia 6. (include).

The region has a mountainous landscape, as a result of 7. modernization has been slow to arrive, allowing many people 8.   (keep) their traditional lifestyles and cultures. For example, many of the Miao people still live in wooden houses on stilts(桩子)，while the Dong people have traditional wind and rain bridges, providing shelter from the weather.

Food varies by ethnic group—sour and spicy 9.(flavor) are common in Guizhou cuisine. “With its use of tomatoes and just a touch of chilli peppers, Guizhou cuisine is loved by anyone unwilling to try the spicier Sichuan cuisine," CNN said.

With picturesque natural scenery, colorful locals and impressive food, it’s no wonder10.  Guizhou's name translates to “precious land".

How to express yourself to others

Every person on the planet communicates in some fashion. And one of the hardest things to do when you're communicating with someone is expressing yourself. After all, words have the power to give life and death... especially in relationships. 1.

If you have a fear of people, people will avoid you. It's a vicious cycle（恶性循环）. You avoid people because you fear that they will hurt you. People see your coldness, and either think the worst （that you are stuck-up（傲慢的）），or satisfy your desire and leave you alone. 2. You'll have a hard time getting close to them when you bottle everything up inside. Your relationships will all be shallow.

Your inability to express yourself will haunt（萦绕于）you in time of trouble. You'll need help, and you'll want help, but you won't seek it. You'll hide. So, no one helps you. Then you grow bitter and angry. What's more, it can cause isolation. You build walls around your emotions and people consequently leave you alone. Gradually, your life will be empty. Life is relationships. 3.

However, reading will help you learn how other people express themselves. Pay attention to word usage, diction（措词）,flow, voice and tones. These will give you ideas of expressing yourself. 4. They'll provide you with many ways of expressing your emotions and help you express yourself better.

Besides, you can do some writing on your own. Start a novel. Write letters. Keep a journal or diary. You'll find that writing helps you to sort through your thoughts. Writing gives you focus and direction.

5. You can't catch it from someone who has it. It is the spiritual state of mind that is the direct result of fear. There is really only one type of fear and that is the fear of the unknown. Don't fear what other people think about you. Honestly, your imagination will create far worse imagination than what most people will ever think.

A.Social anxiety is not a disease.

B.That will make them feel needed.

C.So it is important that you learn to express yourself.

D.All of these factors have some relationship to happiness.

E.Look up words that you've never seen before and use them.

F.The stronger your relationships are, the more joy you'll have in life.

G.When you can't open up to people, they will feel that you are unapproachable.

    What consumers expect when they see a food makes the palate（额）taste certain flavors. The strong associations between color and flavor are well established in the scientific community. Research on the subject dates back to the 1970s. For example, consumers expect yellow foods to be sour and black foods to be bitter.

Branding, packaging and color quality of the product itself play a big part in creating and maintaining expectations. Food brands have long understood this and worked to establish standards. Federal regulations grade the color of orange juice. Businesses provide color- matching services for companies to select the right color for a particular product. In some cases, color can overpower other senses and convince people they taste flavors that aren't there.

The Penn State researchers set out to confirm long-standing research into the relationship between color and taste. And they found what consumers see when they eat matters as much as—if not more than—what they taste, and the links could be more flexible than many thought in some cases.

"This might have potential impacts in the food industry if a company were to launch a new flavoured product with a color. Some consumers might not learn or accept a new color and flavor pairing（配对）as well as others Penn State Food Science doctoral candidate Molly J. Higgins said in a written statement.

Although it may be possible to completely change food colors, it may not be advisable. According to this study, 40% of consumers would be left behind, stuck on familiar patterns. That's a big risk for food brands to take. Consumers tend to want to know what they're in for when they select a product—and color is a big part of that. While it's interesting that consumer expectations of colors could change, the risk of unexpected colors is high for any company.

Many food brands rely on visual expectations to pull customers into unfamiliar products. A hamburger that copies the appearance and color of a beef patty （小馅饼）will cause a different reaction than a green-colored veggie（素食者）--dense alternative. But while today's consumers have expectations of flavors of items with different colors, they also have expectations that natural materials are used. While these materials are often preferable, they present a challenge. General Mills changed artificial dyes （染料）to natural ones in Trix cereal. Consumer anger followed. Many found the earthier tones depressing, despite no change in flavor. Chemicals and all, they wanted the original back. The company eventually switched back, choosing to treat color as being more important than other things.

1.Which of the following is NOT mentioned as for creating and maintaining expectations for products?

A.Color quality. B.Branding.

C.Packaging. D.Shape.

2.What do Molly J. Higgins' words suggest in Para. 4?

A.An expected food color attracts consumers more.

B.Most people choose foods based on their colors.

C.Companies should release new products regularly.

D.Not all consumers welcome a new color-taste pairing.

3.Why is General Mills mentioned in the last paragraph?

A.To stress the challenges facing food companies.

B.To stress the difficulty in using natural materials.

C.To stress the importance of color in food selection.

D.To stress the difference between color and taste.

4.What can be the theme of the text?

A.Why do foods have different colors?

B.How deep are color-taste associations?

C.What factors affect the flavors of food?

D.Do different colors mean different responses?

    Walmart China has named Zhu Xiaojing Christina as president and CEO, effective May 8, its first female head in China. Current CEO Wern-Yuen Tan will leave the company after three years to return home to his family in Singapore. Zhu joins Walmart from Fonterra China, where she most recently served as president. The new appointment signals the US retailer's direction to be more digitalized and innovative in China's competitive retail（零售的）market.

"At a time of incredible disruption（扰乱）in retail landscape across China, it's vital to have a digital savvy, innovative leader to continue the remarkable work Yuen has done over the past few years heading up our business in China,” said Dirk Van den Berghe, Walmart's EVP, Global Sourcing and Regional CEO-Asia.

"Christina's impact on Fonterra's overall business —improving its brands and products as top sellers in many categories through digitization and constant innovation ——cannot be understated."

Before joining Fonterra in 2011, Zhu held various leadership roles in multinational companies such as Honeywell and McKinsey &  Co.

Tan, who will leave the company on June 15, joined Walmart China in 2017. During his three years with Walmart China, Tan oversaw an expansion in formats and services across Walmart and Sam's Club China. Recently, Tan played a good role in Walmart China's response to the recent COVID-19 crisis.

Van den Berghe said： "From the moment we first learned of the novel coronavirus（冠状 病毒）threat, Yuen poured himself into the response effort, first ensuring the health and safety of our staff, then working with government officials to keep our retail units open so that customers could access essential goods and services. ” As our business in China found its way forward, Yuen went even further, compiling learning and best practices to share with the US business and across our international markets. The speed and effectiveness of Walmart's global response to the pandemic is a credit to Yuen's leadership.

Walmart said it was planning to open more than 500 new stores and depots （smaller warehouses） in China during the next five to seven years and improving 200 existing stores in three years.

1.What does the underlined word "savvy" mean in Para. 2?

    It was the Olympic final day earlier this month, but this was an Olympics with a difference. Over the last five months, local and regional competitions have been held across Kenya for Maasai men of "warrior" age as part of the Maasai Olympics 2018. December 15 marked the final round with crowds gathering in Kimana, near the Amboseli National Park, about 200 km south of Narobi. Cash prizes and medals are in store for the winning individuals and communities.

International Charity Born Free Foundation is a main sponsor of the event which has been held every two years since 2012 to offer Maasai and warriors an alternative to(作为......

的替代)killing lions as part of their traditional ceremony. It was the idea of the Wildlife Charity Big Life Foundation and eight Maasai elders who wanted to "stop lion hunting by our warriors once and for all, making it a cultural taboo(禁忌)”.

"As soon as we understood the idea for the Maasai Olympics, we were attracted by the excitement, and inspired by the complete sense of this great plan," said Born Free Foundation's CEO Howard Jones. "As human populations grow and our wants seem to increase, with little sympathy for those other species with whom we share the planet, the pressing needed for coexistence is urgent. And examples of how this may be achieved are few and far between."

"About 2,000 lions remain in Kenya, and Born Free works to monitor the population, ease human-wildlife conflict and promote coexistence. "added Jones. “The Maasai live and work alongside lions and other wildlife, so they play a key role in their protection and conservation. However, the Maasai also have a 500-year-old tradition of hunting lions when men reach warrior age."

The Maasai Olympics were developed to encourage young men to compete in an organized sports competition based on their traditional warrior skills. They compete in six events (5,000 m, 800m, 200m, high jump, etc.) and there are also two events (1,500m and 100m) for women. As well as the competitive element, the event also aims to educate local people about conserving lions and other wildlife, and the importance of human-wildlife coexistence and tolerance.

1.What do we know about the Maasai Olympics according to the text?

A.They are only accessible to men.

B.They had been held four times by 2018.

C.They are held in the Amboseli National Park.

D.They honour winners with the title of hero.

2.What can we learn about the Maasai Olympics traditional ceremony?

A.It is primitive and unacceptable.

B.It is a proof of their being sympathetic.

C.It is the result of human-wildlife conflict.

D.It is highly regarded by Born Free Foundation.

3.Which of the following might NOT be the aim of Born Free Foundation?

A.To change the lifestyle of lions in Kenya.

B.To ease human-wildlife conflict in Kenya.

C.To monitor the population of lions in Kenya.

D.To promote coexistence of humans and lions in Kenya.

4.What does Howard Jones try to express in Para. 4?

A.Humans and wildlife cannot benefit each other.

B.The Maasai should not interfere with wildlife.

C.Humans should live in harmony with wildlife.

D.The Masssai should not give up their old tradition.

How to stay focused in class

Being relaxed during class is a bad habit， and it is also bad to your grade． Focusing in class not only proves to teachers that you are a capable student but also shows that you have the ability to control yourself， which will be very important．

1. No matter how much you want to sit with your friends during the class， try your best to avoid them． Talking with friends around you is not going to give you the focus in class． This will get you into trouble．

Look at teacher and make eye contact． Your teacher is not just standing up there talking．2. Show the teacher that he or she has your full attention by looking them in the eye． This person should have your full attention at all times during class．

Take notes． By taking notes， you'll be able to "get into" the lesson． Write down key points as your teacher speaks． And listen to the key phrases such as "This is  important" "This is the main idea" "This will be the test" etc．3.

Get involved in class discussions． This is a wonderful way to become a more focused， successful student． When a teacher asks a question， offer to answer it．4.This shows the teacher that you are listening carefully during the class．

Ask a question．5.This really shows your teacher that you want to be better， and can recognize the things you are having difficulty with． Chances are that someone else in the class has the same question （and was too afraid to ask!）． They'll be relieved， and so will you．

A.Avoid sitting with friends．

B.This can help you listen more attentively．

C.If he or she ask for an opinion， share your own．

D.Talking with friends makes you lose interest in class．

E.He or she is trying to give you an acceptable education．

F.The more quickly you answer， the more attention you pay．

G.If you don't understand something， never be afraid to ask．

    Language learning apps are very popular now and offer opportunities to learn vocabulary and practice grammar. But there has been a discussion about just how effective such apps can be.

Among the most popular apps are Duolingo and Busuu. A former research found positive results on the use of them. But it mainly concentrated on studies with learners who had signed up for language courses and these apps worked as an after-class support, so the results were not always reliable. A recent study of 4,095 Busuu users has been carried out to find out if users can actually learn a language with an app.

Busuu provides learning materials for 12 different languages. It offers special models where some contents are ready for use for free while some contents are not. We find that its users are an even mix of men and women. More than half consider themselves to be at the beginner level because there is a reduction in users as their language levels go up. Most people use the app because of personal interest, or because they want to study or live abroad. Female users are likely to use it less often but for longer periods of time than male users.

Feedback in the app is highly thought of. More than 92% of the users say that the app has met their expectations and 86% consider the app as very good or good. In fact, more than 80% of the users surveyed strongly agree that using the app has helped them improve their knowledge of the language they are learning.

Besides, language learning apps also create an environment where mistakes are only known to the users, and this can address the performance nervousness that many learners suffer from when asked to speak a foreign language. So language teachers should encourage their students to use them to do the grammar work, leaving precious class time for more language communication.

1.What's the reason why the results of the former research weren't always reliable?

A.It only considered users of a limited kind.

B.It just focused on positive results.

C.It was only carried out before class.

D.It used out-of-date methods.

2.What can we learn about the app Busuu from the text?

A.It's used by more advanced learners.

B.. All the contents are free to use.

C.Most users consider it satisfying.

D.It's more popular with female learners.

3.The underlined word"address"in the last paragraph can be replaced by_____.

A.cause B.solve

C.increase D.practice

4.What is the main idea of the text?

A.Language learning apps are very popular with most language teachers.

B.Students won't suffer nervousness in learning languages by using Busuu.

C.Language learning apps are effective and satisfactory to language learners.

D.Students should be required to use apps for homework after class.

    Alice Moore is a teenager entrepreneur, who in May 2015 set up her business AilieCandy. By the time she was 13, her company was worth millions of dollars with the invention of a super-sweet treat that could save kids' teeth, instead of destroying them.

It all began when Moore visited a bank with her dad. On the outing, she was offered a candy bar. However, her dad reminded her that sugary treats were bad for her teeth. But Moore was sick of missing out on candies. So she desired to overcome the warning, “Why can't I make a healthy candy that's good for my teeth so that my parents can't say no to it?” With that in mind, Moore asked her dad if she could start her own candy company. He recommended that she do some research and talk to dentists about what a healthier candy would contain.

With her dad's permission, she spent the next two years researching online and conducting trials to get a recipe that was both tasty and tooth-friendly. She also consulted dentists to learn more about teeth cleaning. Consequently, she succeeded in making a kind of candy only using natural sweeteners, which can reduce oral bacteria.

Moore then used her savings to get her business off the ground. Afterwards, she and her father got their first business meeting with a supermarket owner, who finally agreed to sell Moore's product—CanCandy.

As CanCandy's success grows, so does Moore’s reliability as an entrepreneur. Moore is enthusiastic about the candy she created, and she hopes that every kid can have a clean mouth and a broad smile.

Meanwhile, with her parents' help, Moore is generally able to live a normal teenage life. Although she founded her company early in life, she wasn't driven primarily by profit. Moore wants to use her unique talent to help others find their smiles. She donates 10% of AilicCandy's profits to Big Smiles.

A.She lives an abnormal teenage life.

B.She devotes herself to doing business.

C.She is generally living the same teenage life as others.

Everyone knows that fish is good for health.1.But it seems that many people don’t cook fish at home. Americans eat only about fifteen pounds of fish per person per year, but we eat twice as much fish in restaurants as at home. Buying, storing, and cooking fish isn’t difficult.2.This text is about how to buy and cook fish in an easy way.3.Fresh fish should smell sweet: you should feel that you’re standing at the ocean’s edge. Any fishy or strong smell means the fish isn’t fresh.4.When you have bought a fish and arrive home, you’d better store the fish in the refrigerator if you don’t cook it immediately, but fresh fish should be stored in your fridge for only a day or two. Frozen fish isn’t as tasty as the fresh one.There are many common methods used to cook fish.5.First, lean it and season it with your choice of spices(调料). Put the whole fish on a plate and steam it in a steam pot for 8 to 10 minutes if it weighs about one pound. (A larger one will take more time.) Then, it’s ready to serve.

A.Do not buy it.

B.The easiest is to steam it.

C.This is how you can do it.

D.It just requires a little knowledge.

E.The fish will go bad within hours.

F.When buying fish, you should first smell it.

    Bananas are one of the healthiest fruits you can eat, being loaded with protein, fiber, vitamins A, B6, and C, etc. Bananas are delicious on their own as well. But we’re not here today to talk about the banana fruit, but rather its peels. Generally thrown away as waste, banana peels actually bring about different uses.

Starting off with a topical benefit, banana peels are great for relieving the painful itch of bug bites. Science hasn’t figured out why it works, but you can’t argue with results. People who have tried it report that it is really useful.

There are lots of expensive ways to whiten teeth, and a lot of them use bleaching agents which weaken teeth and can cause sensitivity. But guess what? Banana peels can whiten teeth naturally and gently due to their potassium content.

Banana peels contain a lot of antioxidants that are great for your skin. To reduce the look of lines and wrinkles, simply rub a banana peel directly on the affected areas and wash your face 30 minutes later.

It is fiber once again that can lower your cholesterol levels, which is critical to maintaining a healthy heart. Banana peels contain more soluble fiber than the fruit itself, so throwing away the peel wastes a valuable opportunity to bump your intake. And finally, you can actually rub a banana peel on shoes, leather, and silver articles to clean them up and make them shine.

Whether you eat them or use them, banana peels don’t save very well. Once removed from the fruit, they blacken pretty quickly. It's best to prepare and consume banana peels right away. However, one thing is for sure—you will stop throwing these valuable wrappers in the trash after you discover all the incredible things they can do.

1.Why can banana peels be used to whiten teeth?

A.They will cause sensitivity to our teeth.

B.They are much cheaper than bleaching agents.

C.They can make our teeth white while doing no harm.

D.The effect is better than any other things.

2.What do we know about banana peels’ function?

A.They can stop the bites of some insects.

B.They can clean leather shoes and gold jewellery.

C.They can act as a facial mask and make us look younger.

D.They can keep our heart healthy by increasing our cholesterol levels.

3.What should we do with bananas according to the last paragraph?

A.Consume them right away. B.Throw their peels in the trash.

C.Try to save their peels in good condition. D.Make use of their peels soon after being removed.

4.What is the best title for the text?

A.Why not eat banana peels? B.How to make good use of bananas?

C.Banana peels do good to our mental health. D.It is worthwhile using banana peels.

    Even before a baby is born, the process of learning language has already begun. In the third stage of pregnancy（怀孕）, when the baby’s ears are fully developed, the intonation(语调)patterns of the mother’s speech are sent through the fluids in the body. This is thought to be like listening to someone talking in a swimming pool: It’s difficult to make out the individual sounds, but the rhythm（押韵） and intonation（语调） are clear. This has an important effect on language learning. By the time a baby is born, she already has a preference for her mother’s language. At this stage the baby is able to identify language through the intonation patterns.

For example, French and Russian speakers place emphasis on different parts of a word or sentence, so the rhythm of these two languages sounds different. Even at four days old, babies can use this information to tell their own language from an unfamiliar other language. This means that the newly born infants (婴儿) are ready to start learning the language that surrounds them; they already have an interest in their mothers’ language.

Research has shown that babies prefer to listen to this exaggerated(夸张的)type of speech than typical adult-like speech. They pay more attention when a parent’s speech has a higher pitch(音调)and a wider pitch range compared to adult-like speech with less exaggerated pitch features. For example, a mother might say the word “baby” in an exaggerated “singsong” voice, which holds a baby’s attention longer than it would in a simple adult-style voice. Words produced in this way also stand out more from the speech stream, making it easier for babies to pick out smaller groups of language.

So, baby talk is not just a way of getting involved with infants on a social level—it has important effects on language learning from the very first moments of a newborn’s life.

1.What does a baby first learn in the process of learning language?

A.Her mother’s language. B.Individual sounds.

C.The rhythm and intonation. D.Speeches around.

2.How does the author develop paragraph 2?

A.By making an instruction. B.By providing an example.

C.By giving a definition. D.By making a comparison.

3.Why does a mother prefer the “singsong” voice when talking to her baby?

A.To amuse herself.

B.To teach a song.

C.To attract her baby’s attention.

D.To make her baby familiar with a higher pitch.

4.What is the best title for the text?

A.Baby talk helps infants learn language

B.Babies tend to learn from their mothers

C.Babies are born with unusual learning ability

D.Baby talk helps infants tell one language from another

    When I stepped out of Heathrow Airport, the British accents were music to my ears! The roads were so empty and traffic was so organized, with open spaces everywhere and so few people on the streets—what a difference from where 1 came—Mumbai. The difference was even more obvious after I had spent 21 years of my life living in that place. The streets were unfamiliar, and the faces were all foreign.

I boarded my bus for my university town. I felt like I had been in a fairytale book—the small houses, the quiet streets and the well-dressed people among other things. A small and beautiful three-storeyed building is quite a rarity back home and here, I have yet to see a building taller than that! Back home in India, the kind of rent I pay here could have afforded me a luxurious(豪华的） 2 bedroom-hall-kitchen apartment in a good location. But my accommodation here is the size of my bathroom back home! It’s just a fact... reality can be rude at times!

I really cherish the first day of my new university. I’ve met so many students from countries that I didn’t even know. But living alone in a new place, away from the protection of my family and friends, is a different experience altogether—a wonderful experience of further education!

It's been almost two months now. The novelty(新奇)is gradually disappearing, and the dust is settling down. It’s all just daily now but I feel fully settled. I really like this place. It feels like home!

1.What does the underlined part “that place” in paragraph 1 refer to?

A.Heathrow Airport. B.Britain.

C.Mumbai. D.A university of India.

2.What is the author’s first impression of Britain?

A.Dirty and noisy. B.Different but poor.

C.Hopeful and inspiring. D.Strange but beautiful.

3.What does the author probably do？

A.An international student. B.A tourist from India.

C.A British college teacher. D.An unknown writer.

4.What can we know from the last paragraph?

A.The author is less interested in everything because of dust.

B.The author still feels curious about everything around.

C.The author has been used to the new environment.

D.The author feels like going home after nearly two months.

    You probably know who Marie Curie was, but you may not have heard of Rachel Carson. Of the outstanding ladies listed below, who do you think was the most important woman of the past 100 years?

Jane Addams (1860-1935)

Anyone who has ever been helped by a social worker has Jane Addams to thank. Addams helped the poor and worked for peace. She encouraged a sense of community by creating shelters and promoting education and services for people in need. In 1931, Addams became the first American woman to win the Nobel Peace Prize.

Rachel Carson (1907-1964)

If it weren’t for Rachel Carson, the environmental movement might not exist today. Her popular 1962 book Silent Spring raised awareness of the dangers of pollution and the harmful effects of chemicals on humans and on the world’s lakes and oceans.

Sandra Day O’Connor (1930-present)

When Sandra Day O’Connor finished third in her class at Stanford Law School, in 1952, she could not find work at a law firm because she was a woman. She became an Arizona state senator (参议员) and, in 1981, the first woman to join the U.S. Supreme Court. O’Connor gave the deciding vote in many important cases during her 24 years on the top court.

Rosa Parks (1913-2005)

On December 1, 1955, in Montgomery, Alabama, Rosa Parks would not give up her seat on a bus to a white passenger. Her simple act landed Parks in prison. But it also set off the Montgomery bus boycott. It lasted for more than a year, and kicked off the civil-rights movement. “The only tired I was, was tired of giving in,” said Parks.

1.What is Jane Addams noted for in history?

A.Her social work.

B.Her teaching skills.

C.Her efforts to win a prize.

D.Her community background.

2.What was the reason for O’Connor’s being rejected by the law firm?

B.Her little work experience in court.

C.The discrimination against women.

D.The poor financial conditions.

3.Who made a great contribution to the civil-rights movement in the U.S.?

A.Jane Addams. B.Rachel Carson.

C.Sandra Day O’Connor. D.Rosa Parks.

When people hear the word ''rat'', they may think of dirty animals that spread disease. And if you are an English learner, you may also connect the word ''rat'' with bad 1. (express).

Based on Tanzania, APOPO trains giant rats 4. (find) landmines. Humans 5. (use) metal-searching devices to do this work for years. But rats--- it turns out--- do it better. And they also cost 6.
