In many developing countries, it is difficult to keep food cool. Most areas do not have electricity to operate the devices called refrigerators to keep food coot. Within days, food often spoils or becomes unsafe to eat. This can cause disease and loss of money for farmers. However, in Nigeria, one man is working to change this.
Mohammed Bah Abba, a teacher, invented a cooling device using two round containers made of clay. Mr. Abba's invention is called a Pot-in-Pot Preservation Cooling System. A small pot is placed inside a larger one. The apace between the two pots is filled with wet sand. The inner pot can be filled with fruit, vegetables or drinks. A wet cloth covers the whole cooling system. The device keeps some foods fresh for several weeks.
Food stored in the small pot is kept from spoiling through a simple evaporation process (过程) . Water in the sand between the two pots evaporates through the surface of the larger pot where drier outside air is moving. The evaporation process causes a drop in temperature of several degrees. This cools the inner container and helps destroy harmful bacteria found in food.
Mr. Abby started producing his cooling device in 1997. Since then, he has given mom than 20,000 devices to people in villages in Nigeria. He expects that within five years, people all over the country will be using his invention. Mr. Abba also hopes to export his Pot-in-Pot cooling system to other hot, dry nations facing similar problems.
The Rolex Watch Company of Switzerland has also recognized the value of this cooling system. Two years ago, Mr. Abba received the Rolex Award(奖赏) for Enterprise. This award is given every two years. It awards people trying to develop projects aimed at improving human knowledge and well-being. Winners receive financial assistance to help develop their projects.
1．We can conclude from the passage that Mr. Abba ________.
[ ]
A．altogether invented 20,000 devices
B．didn't spend much money on his invention
C．has exported his invention to many hot, dry countries
D．has helped many Nigerian villagers in many different ways
2．According to the passage, the device invented by Mr. Abba ________.
[ ]
A．is being used by many African villagers to keep food from going bad
B．is popular with those who cannot afford to buy cool food
C．is a device called a refrigerator to keep food cool

I recently ran into a friend I hadn’t seen for a long while．Our conversation was lively and full of news from both sides．Before we parted she said，“You'll have to drop in sometime.” I immediately sensed that if I simply “dropped in’’ I would take my friend by surprise，and I would be discouraged by the image of her standing in her doorway，staring at me，and asking，“Oh，err …what brings you here?”
Whatever happened to the unannounced drop-in visit? When I was growing up in the 1960s, it seemed that people - mostly relatives, but also friends - were always popping in. My parents would put coffee on，and my mom would find something in the kitchen to serve along with it．Then the conversation would begin…The neighbor lady，a worrier，was unloading her sadness while my mom quietly listened．The Irish man next door had such an accent that I remember asking what language he spoke．My Polish relatives arrived in packs…But I never heard my parents say anything like “We weren’t expecting you’’ or “This isn’t a good time．”Drop-in visitors had a certain right of way and became No．1．
What happened to such visits? Actually I know the answer．Times have changed．Everybody gets busy with work．There is no longer a stay-at-home mom keeping a pot of hot coffee or tea ready throughout the day for a surprise guest．Exploding malls and stores are now replacing homes as a central form of entertainment．
Just the other day a former student of mine showed up．“I'm sorry for the surprise visit．”my student began．“I just wanted to see if you still lived here．I'll only stay a minute．”My response was immediate.“ No, you won’t,” I said.“Just come in, sit, have coffee, and we’ll talk.’’
I had nothing in the kitchen but we ordered pizza．And we had a lovely time．I have tried to keep the drop-in tradition alive though it takes some effort．
1.The author thought of his friend’s invitation --- “You’ll have to drop in sometime”--- as _______.

A．make many friends
B．make a special date
C．have a good time
D．pay a sudden visit
3.The woman from the neighborhood used to visit the author’s home to ________.
A．seek comfort from my parents
B．make new friends
C．1isten to my parents’ story
D．taste nice dishes
4.From the third paragraph of the passage，we can infer that __________．
A．the author misses the lost good days
B．unexpected visitors are still welcome now
C．modern people prefer outdoor activities
D．there are more jobs for the housewives now
5.The author writes the passage intending to __________.
