2．閱讀下面的短文，根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容回答問(wèn)題．（每小題2分）
It began with one red paper clip（回形針）and ended with a house．Kyle MacDonald，a 26-year-old Canadian，got a three-bedroomed house through 14trades（交換）that started with a single red paper clip．
Encouraged by Kyle"s successful experience，now more and more young people around the world are starting their own trading activities．They set up websites where people can trade things thery do not usually use with other people．A website called Peerflix allows people to trade their used DVDs．These traders usually prefer face-to-face tracing，which means they don't have to worry about who is going to pay for the delivery（遞送）．
Last year，a young girl in Beijing decided to follow the example of Kyle．She started with a paper clip．a(chǎn)nd hoped to get a house in the end．After several trades she now has a piano which is worth more than 10，000yuan．But she may still have a long way to go．
You may be puzzled about why people are doing this．In fact，everyone in the trade activities gets things that are useful to them．Just as Kyle said，"What's more important to a man dying of thirst in the desert-one million dollars or a glass of water？"Kyle's words probably show why these trades are popular among young people．
71．What did Kyle get in the end through 14trades？
A three-bedroomed house．
72．Where can people trade things they do not usually use？
At websites．
73．why do these traders usually prefer face-to-face trading？
Because they don't have to worry about who is going to pay for the delivery．
74．How can the Chinese girl's dream come true？
She can go on trading．
75．Why are the trade activites popular among young people？
Because the traders can get things that are useful to them．．

When the Prince came back from hunting，Gelert ran out to meet his master．He wagged his tail and jumped up to put his paws on the Prince's chest．Then the Prince saw the blood on Gelert's jaw and head．"What have you done？"the Prince said．He rushed into his house and looked for baby son．The cradle was lying on its side on the floor．The clothes were torn and there was blood on them．"Soed have killed my son？"the Prince said angrily．"You unfaithful dog!"He took out his sword and killed the dog．Just as Gelert was dying，he managed to bark．Then the Prince heard a baby call to the dog．

13．Many people think the camel stores water in its hump （駝峰），but it does not．Instead，the camel stores something else there-food．The came's hump is really a hump of fat （ 脂肪）．The camel is often called"a ship of the desert"．When the camel is not travelling and is in a place where there is much food and water，it eats and drinks a lot．As it does so，its hump rises from the fat its body makes．Then，when the camel is travelling through the desert and when there is no food，it can live off the stored fat．
    A camel can go on for days or weeks with little food or water．However，when its hunger reaches the point starvation （餓死），its hump shrinks （收縮） and may even slip off its back and hang down its side．
