When people want to find something on the Internet, they often say,“Let’s Google it!”It means “Let’s search for it on the Internet!”

It all began in the summer of 1995, Larry Page, 24, and Sergey Brin, 23, met at Stanford University. In their project, the two students came up with a plan to make a new search engine(引擎). They founded(成立)Google a year later. It became a company on September 7,1998.

Google is not the first search engine, but it is certainly the most successful. Google’s worldwide market share(市场占有率)was as high as 82.8 percent last year, according to Marketshare. Hitslink.com.

Before Google,search engines ranked (排名) websites simply by how many times the webpage has been visited. Page and Bin used a completely different way, by the number of other websites that linked(链接) to that site. Google helps people find the most important site that connects to their key words.

As popular as Google in the English world, in China, Baidu is the most popular and biggest search engine. It held a market share of nearly 80 percent for web search in 2012.

Baidu was started in 2000 by Li Yanhong and Xu Yong. It offers searches for website, audio, images...It also provides the largest online Chinese encyclopedia(百科全书)，Baidu Baike.

In real life, most people seem confident. But when they can't have things they want, they are upset and lose themselves. Do you want to learn how to be yourself? Here are some suggestions.

Be kind to yourself

Appreciate what you have done. Everyone has different talents which can help to make the world become a better one. Remember you don't need to satisfy everyone. No matter what others think of you, just be yourself.

Make good friends

Always make friends with people who are willing to make you feel better about yourself. Good friends neither talk about how great they are nor praise you a lot. They enjoy being with you, not because you are like them, but because you are yourself.

Think about your family.

The values of your family are to give you what really need. Maybe you can't get help when you have small problems. But you can learn how to depend on yourself. When you meet big problems, your family will always be with you.

Hold on to your dream

Holding on to your dream can make you braver and stronger. On the way of achieving your dream, you'll know who you are and what you want. Even though you can't achieve it, you'll find you are better and you can still live a normal life.

In a word, you are the only one. Accept yourself and be yourself. Being unsuccessful doesn't mean you're not good enough. You just need a long way to go.

根据短文内容，判断句子正（T）、误（F）。

1.Everyone's talents can help to make the world better.

2.Good friends are willing to make you feel how great they are.

3.When you meet big problems, your family always make you solve them alone.

4.If you can't achieve your dream, you will not be better.

There are not many people around who say they like rats(老鼠). When you see one of them, you may want to run in the opposite direction.

There is one man though who has always enjoyed staying with rats, even when he was a young boy. His name is Bart Weetjens and he comes from Belgium in Europe. As he grew up, he learned everything about rats. He knew that they have a very strong sense of smell. He realized that it might be possible to train rats to help solve a problem that troubled some Southeast Asian countries.

Clearing away unexploded bombs and landmines(未爆炸的炸弹和地雷) is a difficult job. Bart began to train rats to look for explosives. Because a rat’s sense of smell is so strong, they are able to smell a thing known as TNT that is used in bombs. And because rats are not heavy, if they place their weight on an unexploded bomb, they will not cause it to explode(爆炸).

Bart chose African Giant Pouched Rats for the job. They are well known for being calm and smart. Training begins when they are about six weeks old, and it lasts for nine months. Once trained, one rat can search up to 200m in 20 minutes. The same area would take a human up to four days. Trained rats are known as Mine Detection Rats, or MDRs, and they have worked successfully in Cambodia since 2015.

1.When Bart Weetjens was a young boy, he enjoyed ____________.

2.As Bart Weetjens grew up, he learned that rats have a very ____________.

3.Rats will not cause an unexploded bomb to explode because they are ____________.

4.It takes ____________ to train African Giant Pouched Rats.

Many people believe that French people are very different from Americans. This is certainly true where eating habits are concerned (有关的)! According to a report by the World Health Organization (世卫组织), each year French people eat four times, more than Americans. In addition, they eat more vegetables, potatoes, grain and fish. Yet, despite(不管) the fact that they eat larger amounts of these foods, the French take in about the same number of calories each day as Americans. French and American men consume(消耗) about 2,500 calories

each day on average. French and American women take in about 1,600 calories daily.

How can this be? If the French are eating more of certain types of foods, shouldn’t this add up to more calories？And why are so few French people overweight compared to Americans? The answer is that Americans consume 18 times more refined(精制的) sugar than the French, and drink twice as much whole milk!

Although many Americans believe the French end up each meal with gooey ( 胶粘的) desserts, this just isn’t so. Except for special occasions, dessert in a typical French home consists of fresh fruit or cheese. Many American families, on the other hand, like to end their meals with a bowl or two of ice cream or another sweet treat.

1.Name six types of foods that French people eat more of each year than Americans.

2.How many calories does the average Frenchman consume each day?
