以下顾客打算选购一款dish soap。根据他们的个人情况，请选出符合他们需要的产品。

Mary works as a regional representative of a major company. She is keen on trying something new; she is sensitive to certain flower and fruit fragrant scents. She needs a kind of dish soap with no harm to her skin.
Anna is a full-time housewife who always manages to live within her means. For example, she prefers to choose the dish soap that holds out for very long. Besides, the soap with the fragrance of flowers or fruit is much more to her taste.
Susan runs a hotel somewhere in the countryside. She’s planning to buy an eco-friendly dish soap with the natural fragrance of aloe. If the producer cares about nature protection, she will put more trust in this brand.

What makes one person more intelligent than another? What makes one person genius, like the brilliant Albert Einstein, and another person a fool? Are people born intelligent or stupid, or is intelligence the result of where and how you live? ___________
We know, however, that just being born with a good mind is not enough. In some ways, the mind is like a leg or an arm muscle. __________ Mental exercise (done with the mind) is particularly important for young children. Many child psychologists think that parents should play with their children more often and give them problems to think about. ___________ If, on the other hand, children are left alone a great deal with nothing to do, they are more likely to become dull and unintelligent.
____________ According to some psychologists, if parents are always telling a child that he or she is a fool or an idiot (白痴), then the child is more likely to keep doing silly and foolish things. So it is probably better for parents to say very positive things to their children, such as “____________” or “You are such a smart child.”

A．It needs exercise.

B．Parents should also be careful what they say to young children.

______ You’ve made a list, and you still feel puzzled? Well, get started on the first thing you need to do. Once you get into action, you’ll feel better. And once you start doing something, you will feel much better than lying around feeling sorry for yourself.
______ I like Brown Eyed Girl, the Kinks, the Ramones, or an upbeat Beatles tune. You might have your own brand of feel-good music. Whatever it is, let yourself move to the beat. It may just be what the doctor ordered.

Everyone needs a break, and vacations are not meant for serious study. ____ The Spring Festival is coming up so this is the perfect time to discuss some great English language literature to take on a long train journey.
