7.The Taklimakan Desert in western China has one of the world's most difficult environments.With no water,fierce winds and terrible sandstorms,the temperatures get as high as 40℃in summer and as low as-20℃in winter.Yet,even though it was such a difficult environment,many people in history have traveled through the Taklimakan Desert.Why would anyone want to do this?Cutting through this desert was the famous Silk Road,the main trading route between China and Europe.
In China,the Silk Road ran through the ancient city of Kashgar in Xinjiang,then north-east over the Taklimakan Desert to Dunhuang.From Dunhuang,the Silk Road went south-east through ancient Gansu,and then east to Xi'an.
The best-known product traded along the Silk Road was of course silk.Chinese silk was transported to Europeans,who liked it because it was soft.Other goods transported along the Silk Road included gold,ivory,glass,fur and ceramics.The Silk Road could be quite dangerous:apart from the difficulty of traveling through the desert,robbing was a constant problem.Many merchants traveled with guards to protect themselves and the goods they carried.
To Westerners the most famous traveler along the Silk Road was the Italian merchant,Marco Polo(AD 1254-1324).However,Marco Polo was by no means the first person to travel along the Silk Road and tell others about it.In fact,in 139BC and 119BC,the Chinese explorer Zhang Qian was sent by Emperor Wu to visit the west.Zhang Qian's journey helped bring Chinese people a greater knowledge of the western lands.

29.What is the biggest temperature gap in the Taklimakan Desert?C
A.20℃.
B.40℃.
C.60℃.
D.80℃.
30.Some of the goods transported along the Silk Road includedB.
A.gold and silver    
B.glass and fur
C.animals and fur       
D.ivory and paper
31.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?D
A.Zhang Qian was sent to visit the west twice.
B.The main product traded along the Silk Road was silk.
C.Marco Polo was not the first person to travel along the Silk Road.
D.The Taklimakan Desert has the world's hottest weather.
14.It's hard to talk to dad sometimes.His silence about his feelings and thoughts made him mysterious and hard to see through.You could never break his hard shell and get to know him.And he seemed to want to stay that way too.
But a year ago when my relationship with my wife and career took a hit.I needed my dad to pull back the curtain so I could see him as real and accessible.I was facing serious problems and I wanted to know whether he had faced them before and how he had found his way,because I felt like I had lost mine.In desperation,it occurred to me that sending an email might be the key,so I wrote him one,telling him about my regrets and fears,and I asked him to answer,if he felt like it.
Two weeks later,it showed up in my inbox:a much-thought,three-page letter.Dad,a 68-year-old retired technologist and grandfather of four,had carefully considered my message,and crafted a response.He mentioned his lost love,the foolish mistake he made in career and the stupid pride he had between him and his parents.He comforted me that"life will still find its right track despite many of its twists and turns."
I closed the email and started to cry,because I wished I had opened up earlier but was grateful it wasn't too late.I cried because at 33,in the midst of my own struggles,his letter instantly put me at ease.And I cried because in the end,it was so simple:I just had to hit"Send."
We've since had many email exchanges.This increasing communication opened a door into his world.My problems haven't been magically solved,but getting to know my dad better has made the tough thing more manageable and life sweeter.It's hard to talk to dad sometimes,but I'm glad I found a way to talk to mine.
