It is hard to imagine a place that’s more dangerous than Death Valley. Death Valley is the hottest and the driest place in North America.
Death Valley isn’t an easy place to live in. It gets less than two
feet of rain a year and it’s hot, too. In July, temperature often reaches
over 46℃. There is even a lake that has turned into salt crystals (晶体). But it is cold at night. When it gets cold enough, the water on the
ground will turn into very thin ice. Then the strong wind — like a
large hand — can move the rocks along the icy ground. That is why the rocks can “walk” on their own in Death Valley.
Although the weather condition in Death Valley is terrible, there is still filled with lives.

1,000 kinds of plants there. It also has 51 kinds of mammals (哺乳动物), 6 kinds of fish, and more than 300 kinds of birds. The animals aren’t all small, either.
Finding water is the biggest challenge for anything that lives here. Some plants have roots (根 部) that go fifty feet under the ground to find water. Kangaroo rats get the water they need from
flowers.
Death Valley really creates a lot of surprising!
37. How much of rain does Death Valley get in a year
A. Two feet. B. Fifty-one feet.
C. At least two feet. D. Less than two feet.
38. What is the most difficult to find in Death Valley
A. Water. B. Food. C. Animals. D. Plants.
39. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph refer to (指代)
A. A lake. B. Death Valley.
C. The strong wind. D. The weather condition.
40. What can we infer from the passage
A. The writer dislikes Death Valley
B. Some animals are large in Death Valley
C. The plants do not have long roots
D. Rocks sometimes move in the afternoon
