    For six hours we shot through the landscape of the Karoo desert in South Africa. Just rocks
    and sand and baking sun. Knowing our journey was ending, Daniel and I just wanted to remember all we had seen and done. He used a camera. I used words. I had already finished three notebooks and was into the fourth, a beautiful leather notebook I’d bought in a market in Mozambique.
    Southern Africa was full of stories. And visions. We were almost drunk on sensations. The roaring of the water at Victoria Falls, the impossible silence of the Okavango Delta in Botswana . And then the other things: dogs in the streets, whole families in Soweto living in one room, a kilometre from clean water.
    As we drove towards the setting sun, a quietness fell over us. The road was empty -- we  hadn’t seen another car for hours. And as I drove, something caught my eye, something moving   next to me. I glanced in the mirror of the car; I glanced sideways to the right, and that was when I saw them. Next to us, by the side of the road, thirty, forty wild horses were racing the car, a cloud of dust rising behind them -- brown, muscular horses almost close enough to touch them, to   smell their hot breath. I didn’t know how long they had been there next to us.
    I shouted to Dan: “Look!”, but he was in a deep sleep, his camera lying useless by his feet.   They raced the car for a few seconds, then disappeared far behind us, a memory of heroic forms   in the red landscape. When Daniel woke up an hour later I told him what had happened.
    “Wild horses?” he said. “Why didn’t you wake me up?”
    “I tried. But they were gone after a few seconds.”
    “Are you sure you didn’t dream it?”
    “You were the one who was sleeping!”
    Typical, he said. “The best photos are the ones we never take.”
    We checked into a dusty hotel and slept the sleep of the dead.
    【小题1】 During their journey in Africa, the two travelers______.

    A．made friends with local residents
    B．complained about the poor living conditions
    C．enjoyed the sunset in the Karoo desert most

    【小题2】 What did Daniel think when he woke up and was told what had happened?
    A．He always missed out on the best thing.
    B．He had already taken beautiful pictures.
    C．A sound sleep was more important.
    D．The next trip would be better.

    United States President George W. Bush is expected to issue a directive in the next few weeks. It will give the US Air Force a green light for the development of space weapons, US media reported last week.
    This would potentially start a new global arms race, some experts have warned.
    To keep that from happening, last Wednesday the White House explained that it was not considering putting weapons in space. It said it was making a shift in US space policy to allow for protection of satellites.
    But some defense analysts and arms control advocates argue that the policy will pave the way for the US to put both defensive and offensive  weapons in space.
    “No one should be fooled,” said Theresa Hitchens, an American weapons expert.
    The US is now restricted by a 1996 directive  signed by President Bill Clinton. Plans for space weapons were vetoed by the Clinton cabinet. The directive emphasized the peaceful use of space , in agreement with almost unanimous global opinion.
    The US military has placed importance on space and has sent up numberous satellites for troop communications and to provide intelligence and data to guide bombs to their targets.
    The US Air Force wants to develop space- based weapons that could strike targets anywhere in the world within 90 minutes of receiving the order to open fire.
    These new weapons under development cover a wide range. They include hunter- killer satellites and orbiting weapons. And they use lasers, radio waves, or even dense metal tubes, known as “ Rods from God”, dropped from space to do the damage.
    There are many barriers to the setting up of this kind of program, experts say.
    First is the coast. It is estimated that the budget may be US数学公式1 trillion .
    The technical difficulties of developing reliable space weapons are also a problem.
    And, the program will draw strong criticism from around the world. Experts worry about starting a space arms race

      4. D.
