I used to live in South Africa and recently went back to Botswana to visit the Central Kalahari Game Reserve with my friend Oscar.There is nothing quite like the vast African wilderness.
Our jeep broke down suddenly along the too-hot-to-touch sand.With such an engine， it was tough work.The dry heat was fierce and the only break came from using our precious water for a brief bucket shower.
With no supplies available within the park—it was a sort of no man’s land with the occasional cow—it’s necessary to bring all your fuel， food and water with you.
We camped in a small open space of the bush.At the height of the dry season， leaves in the trees had all fallen down and shade was in scant supply， so we angled ourselves near a lonely leafless tree.As the sun was setting， we drove towards the watering hole a few miles away， and were reminded just why we’d chosen to spend weeks experiencing this difficult， unpleasant， and painful exercise on ourselves.Realizing our arrival， a lone lion stopped his drinking.He yawned （打哈欠），and then carried on drinking.
That night， sleeping on the roof of the jeep， we felt his roar （吼叫） as much as we heard it.All movements and activities stopped， but when bright satellites flashed across the blackness， the vast African skies offered the only sign that the outside world hadn’t come to a standstill.
In the morning we saw that the lion had walked on the road overnight， and his paw prints pressed into yesterday’s tyre tracks.We set off for another morning inching through the sand； another day of shifting landscapes and raw （原始的）， wild beauty； another night lit by fireflies and shooting stars.
5.What can we learn from the passage？（ ）
A.The author and his friend toured the reserve without difficulty.
B.There were many cows in the Central Kalahari Game Reserve.
C.The lion walked along the tyre tracks and attacked the jeep at night.
D.The author and his friend suffered much heat in the daytime.
6.What does the underlined word “scant” in Paragraph 4 mean？（ ）
A.Inadequate. B.Unbending.
C.Abundant. D.Ready.
7.What can we infer from the last paragraph？（ ）
A.The jeep’s tyre was destroyed by the lion at night.
B.The lion didn’t get close to the author’s jeep at night.
C.The author didn’t think the reserve worth visiting.
D.The natural beauty appealed to them to go on bravely.
