Empty Deserts
In the 19th century Americans from the eastern states moved out west to settle in the rich new lands along the Pacific coast. The most difficult part of their trip was crossing the “Great American Desert in the western part of the United States by horse and wagon.
The western desert can be very dangerous. There is little water and there are few trees. But the desert also has scenery of great beauty. Tall towers of red and yellow stone rise sharply from the flat sandy valley floor. The scene has been photographed many times and appears in movies and in TV.
In Arizona, man made dams across the Colorado River have made two large lakes in the middle of the dry desert country. At Lake Powell, the red stone arch of Rainbow Bridge rises high above the blue lake.
There are few roads. Many areas of Lake Powell’s shore can only be reached by boat or on foot. But hikers in this empty desert land sometimes find very old native American pictures, painted on the rocks.
In Death Valley, California, the summer temperature rises to 130 degrees. There is less than two inches of rain each year. Death Valley is the lowest place in America---- 925 meters below sea level. In the 1800s, many travelers died when they tried to cross this waterless valley in the terrible heat.
Although the desert is dry and seems empty, there is plenty of life if you look closely. Small insects, snakes and rats have learned how to live in the desert heat. They live under ground and come out at night, when it is cool. Plants such as cacti need very little water.  When it does rain in the desert (sometimes only once or twice a year), plants grow quickly, and flowers open in a single day. For a short time, the desert is covered with brilliant colors.
【小題1】In the 19th century, Americans moved from the east to the west because they ______.

A．enjoy the tripB．wanted to make their home there
C．wanted to find new grassland thereD．had no water to drink
【小題2】From the passage, we can conclude that ______.
A．the western desert is a good place for people to live in
B．there is little water but there are many trees in the desert
C．the desert is dangerous but it is full of life
D．till now, people know little about the desert
【小題3】 If you want to find some old native American pictures painted on the rock you must go ______.
A．on footB．by boatC．by carD．by plane
【小題4】In the 1800s many travelers died in Death Valley because of ______.
A．illnessB．high temperature
C．cold weatherD．poisonous water
【小題5】In the desert, animals will die ______.
A．if they move aboutB．if they cannot make holes underground

Everybody hates rats. But in the earthquake capitals of the world—Japan, Los Angeles, Turkey—rats will soon be man’s new best friends.

What happens after an earthquake? We sent in rescue dogs. Why? 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 (信號). 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. Christian Linster at Cornell University, New York, says, “‘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(電)!

The “rat project” is not finished, but Julie Ryan of International Rescue Corps in Scotland says, “It would be fantastic. A rat could get into spaces we couldn’t get to and a rat would get out of it 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.In the world earthquake capitals, rats will become man’s best friends because they can     .

A. take the place of man’s rescue jobs

B. find the position of people alive who are trapped in buildings

C. serve as food for people alive who are trapped in buildings.

D. get into small spaces

2.In doing rescue jobs,        .

A. rats smell better than dogs

B. dogs don’t need to be trained to smell people

C. robots’ sense of smell can be affected by other smells around

D. rats can see in the dark and smaller than robots

3.Rats have all the following advantages EXCEPT that       .

A. they are more fantastic than other animals

B. they are less expensive to train than dogs

C. they don’t need electricity

D. they are small and can get into small places

4.After reading the passage we can know       .

A. at present rats have taken the place of dogs in searching for people

B. the “rat project” has been completed

C. people are now happy to see a rat in a building

D. now people still use dogs and robots in performing rescues
