Across the Desert
The Sahara Desert is the largest desert in the world. It stretches across Africa from Senegal to Egypt. The Sahara Desert is an unfriendly environment. During the day it"s very hot， and at night it"s sometimes very cold. It is also difficult to find water in the Sahara.
In 2006， Kevin Lin， Ray Zahab， and Charlie Engle decided to do something very difficult. They made the decision to run across the Sahara Desert—4，300 miles （6，920 km）. It seemed impossible to do， but they wanted to try. The three men liked to test themselves， and this would be a very big test.
On the morning of November 2， Kevin， Ray， and Charlie started their trip across the Sahara. Every morning they began running at 5:00. At 11 am they stopped and rested until 5 pm. Then they ran again until 9:30 in the evening. Each day they ran about 40 miles （64 km）. Every day it was the same thing. They got up and ran. They listened to music on their iPods， and they ran and ran.
Kevin， Ray， and Charlie needed to eat a lot of food during their trip. Most people need about 2，000 calories of food each day. Kevin， Ray， and Charlie needed between 6，000 and 9，000 calories every day. That"s a lot of food! They also needed to drink a lot of water.
The three men had some problems on their trip， and many times they wanted to quit and go home. It was often very hot （140℉/60℃） during the day， and the heat made them sick. their legs and feet hurt. Sometimes it was very windy， and they couldn"t see. One time they got lost. But they didn"t quit. After 111 days， Kevin， Ray，
and Charlie successfully finished their trip across the Sahara Desert. They hugged each other and put their hands in the water of the Red Sea. Then they ran to a hotel to take a long shower.

听力原文： Strange things happen to time when you travel, because the earth is divided into twenty-four time zones, one hour apart. You can have days with more or fewer than twenty-four hours, and weeks with more or fewer than seven days.
If you make a five-day trip across the Atlantic Ocean, your ship enters a different time zone every day. As you enter each zone, the time changes one hour. Traveling west, you set your clock back; traveling east, you set it ahead. Each day of your trip has either twenty-five or twenty-three hours.
If you travel by ship across the Pacific, you cross the international date line. By agreement, this is the point where a new day begins. When you cross the line, you change your calendar one full day, backward or forward. Traveling east, today becomes yesterday; traveling west, it is tomorrow !
Which of the following is the difference in time between zones？
A．Seven days.
B．Twenty-four hours.
C．One hour.
D．More than seven days.

Despite the different language, traveling across Europe has never been so simple. Just five years ago, if you wanted to visit Germany in the north and Spain in the south in one trip, you had to wait for weeks to apply for different visas(签证) from the two countries. You also needed a calculator(计算器) because both countries had different money.
Today, with a Schengen Visa issued(签发)by any member countries, you Can travel across 15 European countries without stopping. Since 2002, within most of the EU, there is now just one type of money called the Euro. The Euro was designed to be the only money in the EU, and already makes it easier to shop around. If you drive, your driving license and car insurance policy are valid (有效的) in the other countries. And you can use your mobile phone everywhere.
All the countries in the continent are melting(融于) into a united Europe under the EU. For Europeans and visitors the result is that it is more convenient to travel back and forth between the different countries.
What does the writer mean by saying" Now many European countries ,are expected to follow this ______. example" (Lines 2 - 3, Para. 1 )？
A．More signs will be set up for Chinese in other European countries.
B．Chinese is now an important language in Europe.
C．More Chinese people will go to travel across Europe.
D．More Europeans have a desire to know more about China.
