We leave London on 15 July, and we’ll be taking a flight to Morocco in northern Africa. We’re going to ride camels through the Sahara Desert. It’s the biggest desert in the world―about the size of the US! I expect it will be very hot, dry and dusty there. We’ll be travelling by camel with local guides, camping in tents and sleeping on the ground. I’ve heard that, in the Sahara, there is no shade during the day, and the stars seem especially brilliant on clear nights. I’ll bring a flashlight with me so that I’ll be able to see in the dark. Altogether, the trip will take six days. That means I’ll have to sit on a camel for almost a week―how uncomfortable! I hope my camel likes me!

One day, in spring, four lawyers were riding their horses along a country road.
There had been a storm, and the ground was very soft. Water was dripping(滴) from the trees, and the grass was wet. As they were passing through a grove(树丛) of small trees, they heard a great fluttering(拍翅) over their heads and a weak chirping(唧唧声) in the grass.
“What is the matter here?” asked the first lawyer, whose name was Speed. “Oh, it’s only some birds!” said the second lawyer, whose name was Hardin. “The storm has blown two of the little ones out of the nest. They are too young to fly, and the mother bird must be very worried about them.”
“What a pity! They’ll die down there in the grass,” said the third lawyer.
“Oh, well! They’re noting but birds,” said Hardin. “Why should we bother?”
Then they rode on, talking and laughing as before. In a few minutes they forgot about the birds.
However, the fourth lawyer, whose name was Abraham Lincoln, stopped. He got down from his horse and very gently put the little ones in his big warm hands. They did not seem frightened, but chirped softly, as if they knew they were safe. Then he looked up to find the nest from which they had fallen. It was much higher than he could reach from the ground, so Lincoln climbed up the tree. He put the birds softly one by one into their warm little home.
Soon the other three lawyers stopped at a spring(泉) to give their horses water.
“Where’s Lincoln?” asked one.
All were surprised to find that Lincoln was not with them.
In a few minutes Lincoln joined them. His shoes were covered with mud.
“Hello, Abraham!” said Hardin. “Where have you been?”
“I stopped a minute to give those birds to their mother,” he answered.
Then all three of them laughed heartily
Then all three of them laughed heartily. They thought it so foolish that a strong man should take so much trouble just for some worthless little birds.
“Gentlemen,” said Lincoln, “I would not sleep well tonight if I had left those helpless little birds on their own in the wet grass.”
Abraham Lincoln afterwards became very famous as a lawyer and statesman. He was then elected president. Next to Washington, he is regarded as one of the greatest American presidents.

Emma Willard also tried to persuade New York State to pass a law to allow women to attend public colleges and universities, though that did not come about until after her death. Some years later people remembered her for her life-long efforts and elected her to the US Hall of Fame (荣誉) in 1905.

When building houses, people used to think about not only the climate of the areas but also the building materials and the fashions for their houses. However, since electricity became more and more expensive, people began to pay much more attention to the energy they could get for their houses and the new ways they could find to protect their houses from both cold and heat.
Now, houses of an old yet new type have been widely built. In some parts of the world, people share their houses with their livestock（家畜）.During cold weather, they gather their cows, goats, or other animals and keep them on the first floor of their houses. The reasons are that the animals can be protected from the cold and that they can help to heat the houses as well. The body heat given off by the animals rises to the second floor of the houses, where people live. By sharing their houses with their livestock, people gain a source of heat.
People who live in or near cities do not usually keep livestock. However, home builders use the fact that heat rises. This natural law can be used in building houses in these areas. Instead of keeping livestock on the first floor, builders fill it with large rocks. As they are open to the sun’s rays during cold weather, these rocks take in heat. They also give off the heat, and, of course, the warm air rises into the living areas of the houses. So these houses are energy-saving.
House-building becomes a great challenge to building designers and energy engineers. They try to meet this challenge by learning from old traditions and by using modern technology. And someday in the future, people will be able to live in more energy-saving houses.

|
A．The climate of their areas. |

B．protecting their livestock from the cold |
|
C．sharing their houses only with their cows |
|
D．living on the second floor with their livestock |

|
A．heat raises the temperature in the houses |
|
B．heat goes in the upward direction |
|
C．heat goes up if temperature is raised |
|
D．heat increases the temperature of rocks |
4.From the passage, we can conclude that __________.
|
A．people will no longer consider building materials in the future |
|
B．energy-saving buildings will become more popular in the future |
|
C．almost all people will move into the houses heated by large rocks |
|
D．energy engineers will devote themselves only to modern technology |
