Scientists B & C.D Bissel is a small village of the West Sahara. It lies next to a l.5-square-kilometer oasis(绿洲), fr
27、om where three days and nights are generally required to go out of the desert. However, before Ken Levin discovered it in 1926, none of the Bissel villagers had ever walked out of the desert. Reportedly, they were not unwilling to leave this barren land. Many had previously tried but failed, always
28、somehow finding themselves back at the oasis after several days of trying to walk out. When interviewed by Ken Levin, an expert at the British Royal College of Sciences, the villagers explained that no matter which direction they walked it always brought them back to the village. Why couldnt the Bis
29、sel villagers walk out of the desert? Levin was very puzzled. He had, by himself, managed to walk north from the village and reach the nearest town in three and a half days. He decided to carry out an experiment to solve the mystery. He and a Bissel villager called Argutel, would walk out of the des
30、ert together. They prepared enough water for a half-a-month journey and two camels. But this time Ken Levin didnt bring his compass. Levin would follow Argutel. Ten days later, they had walked for about 500 miles but were still in the desert. On the 11th morning, an oasis came into their view. They
31、were back at Bissel. Levin now understood why the Bissel people couldnt escape the desert. They had no knowledge of the North Star, which had for centuries provided sailors and other travelers with a point of direction. In the desert, if a person goes forward relying only on their senses, they will
32、not be able to travel in a straight line. Rather they will travel in a very large circle and eventually track back to where they began. Levin explained to Argutel the function of the North Star and said, “As long as you rest in the daytime and walk towards the brightest star at night, you would be a
33、ble to walk out of the desert.” Argutel did as he was told. Three days later, he came to the edge of the desert. Now in the West Sahara, Bissel has become a bright pearl, where tens of thousands of tourists come every year. Argutels bronze statue stands in the center of the town. On its base are the
34、 words: _.13. Villagers in Bissel had never walked beyond the desert because _. A. they had no method to find their way out B. they had a fear of the outside world C. they had no desire to leave the oasis D. they were discouraged by their failures 14. It can be inferred from the passage that _. A. t
35、he use of a compass was necessary to walk out of the desert B. tourism in Bissel has been greatly developed and improved C. Argutel became the leader of Bissel after his return D. Ken Levin didnt walk south because it would take more days 15. Which of the following can most probably be found at the
36、base of Argutels statue? A. A new life starts from the fixed direction. B. A long journey starts with the first step C. Where there is a will, there is a way. D. Two heads are better than one. 第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。How to Make a Chinese Hot PotEati
