Standing in the shower waiting for the water to heat up could be a thing of the
2
past，along with all the wasted water.Three and a half years ago，Lindy Honeychurch，a thirty-year-old Australian full-time mum living on a farm outside Launceston，didn’t consider herself a very good water saver.Neither did her partner who often complained about it with good reasons.Their farm had to rely on tank water and solar power，which meant water had to be trucked in if the tank water ran out in summer.
“I looked at where I could save because I could lead an easier life without the complaint，” she said.Modeling her idea on a car thermostat(恒温器)，Lindy used her kids’ magnetic(磁的) drawing board to design a device that diverts the cold water back down the hot water pipe.“The first aim when I started designing was to keep it really small and simple without having to use power.I wanted to keep it as something that everyone could use，” said Lindy.
She got a patent for her design and took it to some engineers to have it tested out.At first，even though the engineers were amazed that she wasn’t an engineer，she said she sometimes found it hard to be taken seriously.“My age was a real factor because in the plumbing(管路系统) and manufacturing industries you’re dealing with people who’ve got a lot of experiences，” she said.But the engineers soon saw the potential of her design，which she estimated would save average families between 14,000 to 22,000 liters per year.“When you transfer that to the dollar savings on tank water that you have to buy，it can be a saving of 600 per year，” said Lindy.
Armed with positive feedback from engineers and people using rainwater tanks，her design proved a great success.Soon she found a manufacturer early this year，and completed a state government commercial ready course to help her research，her markets and distribution channels.With an Australian Standard for her device just approved，she’s about to start manufacturing and wishes to see her products on the shelves within the next few months.Once that happens，Lindy plans to return to being a full-time mum.
4.What does the second paragraph mainly about? A.Lindy’s unhappy family. B.Lindy’s comfortable farm life. C.The function of Lindy’s invention. D.The background to Lindy’s invention.
5.What drove Lindy to invent a water-saving device? A.Her dull life as a housewife.
B.The difficulty in getting water on her farm.
3
C.Her husband’s request.
D.The need of increasing agricultural water.
6.What happened when Lindy first took her design to some engineers? A.They did not pay much attention to it. B.They believed it was a great invention. C.They helped her test it out immediately.
D.They laughed at her because it was no use at all. 7.What can we know from the text?
A.Lindy didn’t enjoy being a full-time housewife but liked being a working mum. B.Lindy’s products have been widely welcomed in the markets at home and abroad. C.Lindy’s design was liked by engineers and people using rainwater tanks. D.Lindy had a lot of experience in the plumbing and manufacturing industries. Ⅱ.七选五

Tips to Boost Your Confidence
8 Here are some solutions to boost your confidence in the long run. Always think positively.
We all have negative voices inside our head. 9 Start out slowly and push yourself to think of three good things about yourself every morning.

Take the time to look within yourself and assess what is possible to change and what is out of reach.It is important to focus on changing the things you have control over，because this is where you will see the most self-improvement.Make a list of three things that you would like to improve on and then under each item write a few bullet points on how you will go about making this change.
Focus on the small steps for signs of improvement.
Make sure to focus on smaller victories.It is often harder for individuals to see their own self-improvement when they are looking at the long term，but it is easier to pinpoint changes when you are focusing on daily accomplishments. 11 Whatever it is makes sure you follow through and then acknowledge your achievements by making a list and posting it somewhere easily in view，because small steps always add up in the end.
Stop comparing yourself to others.
One of the most common pitfalls(陷阱) that humans are guilty of is comparing
