  At 10 p.m.they began their work.They finally finished recording at 8 a.m.that morning.Just at that moment Diana Ross sat down with tears in her eyes and said.“I just don’t want this to end!”

Geoffrey Moorhouse's Travel Plan

  Geoffrey Moorhouse was flying home to England from Africa in 1971, when he looked __1__ the plane and suddenly thought how huge and __2__ the Sahara Desert was. There and then, he decided to __3__ it by himself by camel.

  For many __4__ men had crossed the Desert from the __5__ and south to trade. But there had been __6__ point in crossing from __7__ to east. So no one had done it __8__ 1963, when twelve Belgians drove across. If he went __9__, by camel, it would be __10__. Moorhouse did not __11__ to go just for fun. But what other __12__ was there? Immediately he knew. He would go because he was afraid. “I would use this journey to __13__ for fear.”

  A year passed __14__ he was free to begin his __15__. He was forty. He had never __16__ a camel. He spoke no Arabic. And he did not know how to __17__ himself by the stars. His friends thought he would soon __18__ such an impossible plan.

  He did not. To take advantage of(利用)the desert winter, he decided to __19__ England early in October 1972. He had six months to get __20__. He began learning Arabic-school lessons in the __21__, and listening to __22__ at home in the afternoon. He made a lot of visits to the London Zoo to learn about camels. At night, he studied the __23__. Maps and compass(指南针)are not enough in the desert. You must know __24__ where you are, and for that you must be able to “read” the stars with a sextant(六分仪).

  Moorhouse planned to begin his __25__ from the Atlantic coast of Africa, and ride through Mauritania, Mali, Algeria and Libya into Egypt, where he hoped to reach the River Nile.
