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. 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 any place 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）.（1）Where do you think you can find this passage?A. In a magazine about toys.B. In a history book.C. In a newspaper about science.D. In an advertisement.（2）Which of the following is NOT TRUE?A. Rats don't need electricity.B. Rats are better than robots when smelling.C. Rats are as clever as radios.D. Rats can see things in the dark when doing rescues.（3）Why does the "rat project" sound great according to the passage?A. Because rats can get into very small spaces.B. Because rats have better noses than dogs.C. Because rats don't like robots.D. Because rats are brave.（4）Which is the best title of this passage?A. Ways of saving peopleB. RatsC. EarthquakesD. Rats for rescue【答案】（1）C（2）C（3）A（4）D【解析】【分析】主要讲了老鼠是怎样营救人的。

（2）细节题。
根据This is sent to a small radio on its back, and then the rescuers follow the radio signals.可知信号被发送给收音机，而没有说老鼠和收音机一样聪明，故选C。
（3）细节题。
根据"It would be great. A rat could get into any place we couldn't get to, and a rat would get out if it wasn't safe."可知是因为老鼠可以去非常小的地方，故选A。
