They have very little water and extreme temperatures. During the day, it can be over 40°C, but at night, it can drop below freezing. Despite these difficult conditions, many animals have found ways to survive in the desert. The camel is one of the most famous desert animals. It can go for days without water because it stores fat in its hump. When there is no water, the camel uses this fat for energy. Camels also have long eyelashes to keep sand out of their eyes and wide feet to walk on soft sand without sinking. The fennec fox is another amazing desert animal. It has very large ears, which help it hear prey moving underground and also release extra body heat to keep cool. The fennec fox is active at night when the temperature is lower. During the day, it rests in burrows to avoid the heat. The kangaroo rat never drinks water! It gets all the water it needs from the seeds it eats. It also has special kidneys that produce very little waste water. This helps it survive in places where there is almost no water. These animals show us that life can find a way even in the most difficult environments. Their special adaptations (适应) remind us of the wonderful power of nature. 1. What is the weather like in the desert? A. It is always hot. B. It is always cold. C. It is very hot during the day and cold at night. D. It is rainy all year round. 2. How can camels go for days without water? A. They drink a lot at one time. B. They store fat in their humps for energy. C. They get water from the air. D. They dig holes in the sand. 3. What are the fennec fox’s large ears used for? A. To keep warm. B. To hear prey and release heat. C. To see better at night. D. To store water. 4. How does the kangaroo rat get water? A. It drinks from rivers. B. It gets water from the seeds it eats. C. It stores water in its tail. D. It drinks dew in the morning. 5. What is the main idea of this passage? A. Deserts are the most dangerous places on Earth. B. Animals in the desert have special ways to survive. C. Camels are the only animals that can live in deserts. D. Deserts are getting smaller every year. （B） School Safety Drills Every school needs to ensure the safety of its students. One of the most important ways to do this is through safety drills. These drills prepare students and teachers for emergency situations such as fires, earthquakes and other disasters. Fire drills are the most common type of safety drill. When the fire alarm sounds, students must leave the building quickly and calmly. They should walk to the nearest exit and gather at a safe meeting place outside. Teachers check that every student is present. Earthquake drills are also very important. In these drills, students learn to “drop, cover and hold on.” They get under their desks or tables and cover their heads to protect themselves from falling objects. They stay there until the shaking stops. Some schools also practice lockdown drills. These drills prepare students for situations where there is a dangerous person inside or near the school. Students lock the doors, turn off the lights, stay quiet and hide in a safe corner of the classroom. Safety drills may seem frightening, but they are very important. They help students know exactly what to do in a real emergency. Being prepared can save lives. Schools should continue to practice these drills regularly so that everyone stays safe. 6. What is the main purpose of school safety drills? A. To make students feel scared. B. To prepare students for emergency situations. C. To test the fire alarm system. D. To give teachers a break from teaching. 7. What should students do in a fire drill? A. Run as fast as possible. B. Leave the building quickly and calmly. C. Hide under their desks. D. Stay in the classroom. 8. What do students learn to do in earthquake drills? A. “Drop, cover and hold on.” B. “Run, hide and fight.” C. “Stop, drop and roll.” D. “Look, listen and learn.” 9. What is a lockdown drill used for? A. Fire emergencies. B. Earthquake emergencies. C. Dangerous person emergencies. D. Flood emergencies. 10. What is the writer’s attitude towards school safety drills? A. He thinks they are a waste of time. B. He thinks they are important and necessary. C. He thinks they are too scary for students. D. He thinks they should be stopped. 四、词汇运用（每题1分，共15分） 1. This story is ________ (exciting) than the one we read last week. 2. It’s important ________ (drink) enough water every day. 3.

She is brave, determined and always believes in herself. She teaches us that we can achieve our dreams if we work hard and never give up. The film is also very funny and has a wonderful message about kindness and understanding. I really admire Judy’s courage. She shows that being different is not a disadvantage — it can be a strength.
