There is one language that is used in every country in the world. The people who use it are young and old, short and tall，thin and fat. It is everybody's second language. It is easy to understand，although you can't hear it. It is sign language.

When you wave to a friend who is across the street, you are using sign language. When you smile at someone, you are saying，“I want to be friendly”，but you are not using speech.You are using sign language. When you raise your hand in class，you are saying, “Please ask me. I think I know the correct answer.”

Babies who can't talk can point at things. They are using sign language. A policeman who wants to stop traffic holds up his hands. He is using sign language.

Many years ago, a French priest, Charles Michel de Epee，became interested in education for deaf people. He invented a finger alphabet (字母表). It is still in use. People can make the sign for letters and spell words with their hands, and deaf people can read and understand them. Soon there were schools for the deaf in many countries. The only university for the deaf is Gallaudet College in Washington D. C.

Today, in the United States, there are special TV news programs for deaf people. The newsreader tells the news in sign language. At the same time, the words appear on the TV screen.

The actors in the Theatre of Deaf don't spell every word.Sometimes they use hand signs. When they put two hands together，it means sandwich. They can make a roof with their hands when they want to show a house. One finger in front of an actor's mouth can mean quiet. You can talk to people who are behind windows that are closed. And when you go swimming with your friends, you can have conversations under water.

Deserts are found where there is little rainfall or where rain for a whole year falls in only a few weeks' time.Ten inches of rain may be enough for many plants to survive(存活)if the rain is spread throughout the year.If it falls within one or two months and the rest of the year is dry，those plants may die and a desert may form.

Sand begins as tiny pieces of rock that get smaller and smaller as wind and weather wear them down.Sand dunes(沙丘)are formed as winds move the sand across the desert.Bit by bit，the dunes grow over the years，always moving with the winds and changing the shape.Most of them are only a few feet tall，but they can grow to be several hundred feet high.

There_is，however，much_more_to_a_desert_than_sand.In the deserts of the southwestern United States，cliffs(悬崖)and deep valleys were formed from thick mud that once lay beneath a sea more than millions of years ago.Over the centuries，the water dried up.Wind，sand，rain，heat and cold all wore away at the remaining rocks. The faces of the desert mountains are always changing—very, very slowly—as these forces of nature continue to work on the rock.

Most deserts have a surprising variety of life. There are plants, animals and insects that have adapted to life in the desert. During the heat of the day a visitor may see very few signs of living things, but as the air begins to cool in the evening, the desert comes to life. As the sun begins to rise again in the sky, the desert once again becomes quiet and lonely.

【语篇解读】文章介绍了沙漠的形成，沙漠上的景观和生命等情况。

【解析】细节理解题。根据文章第一段的句子“Ten inches of rain may be enough for many plants to survive(存活)if the rain is spread throughout the year.”可知，当全年有雨的时候，很多植物能在沙漠中幸存。故选D。
