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.

Everybody staying at a certain place long enough needs to know where the toilet is . When I first visited the Divinity School Library in Yale University, I tried to find the 1 with words familiar to me such as WC, Ladies, Bathroom and Washroom, etc.I used all the 2 I had about toilets ,but I could not find 3 .

Then I remembered that there was another door in the room , so I went back in and opened the door. And there it was ! I found it 22 ! The toilet room was only half the size of the outer room.It had only two seats. Then ,another question came to me :since it was impossible for such a big library to have only one toilet ,I had to ask someone about toilets. A “Rest Room”is also a toilet.The “rest room “had only one seat ,and both women and men could use it by 23 the door from inside.
The term “rest room” is miles apart from the Chinese 24 of a toilet. Here at Yale, when I use a “women”, I feel myself a queen.And when using a “rest room”, I do have a 25 of rest, because it is clean and has a window with a beautiful view.

This was one of my experiences 1 .When I was in my 30s,I was working for a large international company which had its head office in London. I was working in the 2 department.
The company had a training center which was just outside London. Different courses were held there throughout 3 and I 4 go on one training course a year. These usually started 5 a Sunday evening and lasted six days.
Once I was 6 a week’s training course with about forty 7 sales people. I was in the bar on the Friday evening and suddenly a woman who was 8 behind the bar asked me a curious question.“I hope you don’t 9 my asking,” she said, “but I’ve been 10 about it all week. Have you got a sister 11 Mary?” The woman’s name was June. And she used to do various jobs at the training center’s worked in the office, she organized all the food and drink for the center and she worked in the bar at lunch time and in the evening.
My answer 12
June’s question was
“Yes”,and June said,“I thought 13
.I met her last September when she was organizing a course here.” At
that time, my sister was working for 14 company but in a different part of the
country. That was 15
she came to be at the
training center.
16 surprised me was how June guessed we were brother and sister.
Three things made it even more 17 .First, she had met my sister six months
before she met me. Second, they have about sixty new people every week at the
training center’s about one thousand five hundred people had 18 the
center in those six months. And 19
,my sister is married, so she doesn’t have the same family name as
me.
We’re not 20 ,but I guess we must look quite like each other.
