The Sahara Desert, covering most of North Africa, is the largest desert in the world. From north to south the Sahara is between 800 and 1,200 miles and is at least 3,000 miles from east to west. On the west of the Sahara Desert is the Atlantic Ocean and on the east is the Red Sea, and to the north are the Atlas Mountains and the Mediterranean Sea. Over 25% of the Sahara Desert is covered by sand and dunes(沙丘).

The most amazing part of the land is: How did they get all that sand there in the first place? And where did they get it? Actually, it turns out that the area used to be lush(青葱的)with green forests and lakes. But, a climate change caused the whole place to dry up.

Now there are still many kinds of plants in the Sahara Desert, like grass, shrubs(灌木丛)and trees. In the Sahara Desert, people can find some kinds of animals, like hares, deer and foxes. The Sahara Desert also has over 300 kinds of birds.

On February 9th, 2013, Sarah Darling was walking along the street when she met a homeless man named Billy Ray Harris. She reached into her change purse, emptied out all the coins she had and gave them to the homeless man. Neither of them realized that this small generous act(举动) would change their lives.

Sarah didn't realize that she had given Billy not only all her change but also her diamond ring that she had put in her change purse earlier until the next morning. She and her husband, Bill Krejci, rushed to see if they could find Billy. The homeless man was not only in the same place, but also immediately returned the ring. The grateful couple paid him back for his honesty by emptying out their pockets of all the money they had.

Bill Krejci, a web designer, felt that he needed to do something more for this amazingly honest man. So on February 18th, he set up a special page to raise money for him. In just four days, Billy received over $85,000 and there seems to be no end yet.

That is not enough. Billy is living with a person who is generous instead of living in the streets. And that’s not all thanks to the news report, he got together again with his older brother, Edwin Harris who he had been unable to find for 27 years.

All the good luck is just because Billy did the right thing-returning something that did not belong to him.

Baseball is one of the favorite sports in the U.S.A. Children play baseball in sports fields or parks.

At summer picnic, there is often an informal baseball game. Boys and girls, young and old take turns to bat. There are nine players on each team.

The baseball season goes from April to September. During this time, baseball matches are showed on TV and members of the important baseball teams become America’s heroes(英雄).

Hello and welcome to "Words and Their Stories". We will research into some commonly used words and expressions. As with other languages, American English is rich in expressions that come from animals. Today we will talk about the wolf.

Wolves are important animals in the traditions and stories of America. Before the Europeans arrived at north America in the 1500s, to native (土著的) Americans, wolves often meant being brave.

However, in English, wolves are not to be trusted. Perhaps wolves attacked too many people or ate too many farm animals. Whatever the reason, wolves were killed in many places. So many died that they almost became endangered. They also became known as bad animals.

To begin with, there is an expression lone wolf. If we call somebody a lone wolf, he isn't a bad person, but he may like to do things by himself. In fact, he sometimes makes you think he doesn't want to be around people because he dislikes them.

Now, let’s move on to the home. Parents tell their children not to wolf down their food. In other words, the child eats too quickly and without care. And if someone says a child was raised by wolves, that child has bad manners and is behaving like a wild animal.

A wolf call is the noise made by a man to show that he likes the way a woman looks. But a wolf call is not a nice thing. These men sound rude. And trust me, most women really hate wolf calls. So, they don't help a man in the game of love.

By the way, there is a popular expression about wolf from a very old story: a wolf in sheep’s clothing. A wolf in sheep’s clothing describes someone who acts and looks nice on the outside but is bad on the inside. It tells us not to be fooled by appearances.

1.What can we know after reading the passage?

A. Wolves are dangerous and should be killed in order to protect other animals.

B. Only in American English can we expect to find expressions about wolves.

C. In different areas and times, wolves make people think of different things.

D. Nobody lived in north America before the Europeans went there in the 1500s.

2.If a person is called a lone wolf, which of the following things is he most likely to do?

A. Helping classmates to finish homework.

B. Stealing money if nobody is watching.

C. Making many friends with people around.

D. Going to see a movie on his own after school.

3.Which of the following expressions can be used on a student who often breaks school rules?

A. A lone wolf.

B. Raised by wolves.

C. Wolf call.

D. A wolf in sheep's clothing.

4.Where is it possible for us to find the passage above?

A. A book for travel guide.

B. A magazine on trade and business.

C. A science report.

D. A program for English learning.
