There is little rain in desert. Because deserts are so dry, they have no “quilt” to help stop the soil from going away. As a result, they may get very hot during the day with the sun shining, but don’t hold the heat overnight. Many deserts can quickly get cold once the sun goes down. Some deserts can reach temperatures of over 100 degrees F during the day and then drop below freezing (32 degrees F) during the night.
The largest hot and dry desert in the world is the Sahara Desert in Northern Africa. The Sahara is a sandy desert with great sand hills. It covers over 3 million square miles of Africa. Other large deserts include the Arabian Desert in the Middle East, the Gobi Desert in Northern China and Mongolia, and Kalahari Desert in Africa.
Animals that live in the desert are also used to needing little water. Many get all the water they need from the food they eat. Other animals keep water that they can use later. The camel stores up fat in its hump while other animals keep something they need in their tails.
Only certain types of plants can live in the terrible environment of the desert. You won’t see a lot of tall trees in the desert. Most plants have a way to keep water in their leaves, or trunks so they can live a long time without water.
Now deserts cover around 20% of the world’s land, but they are growing. This is called desertification and is caused by different reasons including human activities. The Sahara Desert is growing larger and larger each year. What should we do with it ?

If there is one person who has left a deep impression on me, it's my my teacher, Mrs. Pathak, who was my class teacher for three years. In my childhood, how I wished I had a mother or a sister like her. One moment she could be hard-working and strict, another moment kind and patient.
She always encouraged us to tell the truth. For example, if one had not done the homework, he need not lie. She allowed us to make mistakes, saying we couldn’t be perfect all the time, but we should try.
Another thing she taught me was punctually. She set a good example with her own actions. She was always on time, so we students tried our best to be on time.
She surprised us with her sense of humor. Her classroom teaching was always humorous. After class, she talked to us and told us jokes.
We really felt free to ask questions and Mrs Pathak would give the answers. If she did not know—there had some occasions—she would say so. We all then tried to find out the answers. Whoever came up with the answers was praised and given the prize. Now I sometimes wonder whether Mrs. Pathak just wanted to encourage us to explore and find answers by ourselves.
According to the passage, which of the following words is NOT for describing Mrs. Pathak?
A. Hard-working. B. Humorous C.careless.
The underlined word “punctually “ in the third paragraph probably means _______
A. being on time B. being honest C.being patient
According to the passage, which of the following sentences is TRUE?
A. Mrs. Pathak often asked us to tell jokes in class.
B. Mrs. Pathak thought telling the truth was good.
C. Mrs. Pathak was always angry in the classroom.
In the writer’s opinion, why didn’t Mrs. Pathak give the answers to the questions sometimes?
A. Because she wanted the students to find out the answers by themselves.
B. Because she didn’t like answering the questions.
C. Because she didn’t know the answers to all the questions.
How did the students feel when they asked Mrs. Pathak questions?
A. Shy. B. Frss. C. Nervous.
