You may think there is only sand in the desert of the world, but it is not true. In the desert, as we know, there is a little rain, but it is not1for most plants. Still we can see some plants2 in the desert.
There is3in some places in the desert. We4 these places oases（绿洲）. In the oases, there are villages and towns. People grow all kinds of crops in the fields there.
People5 live outside the oases. They have camels, sheep and other animals. These animals depend on the desert plants for their food and do not need6water.
The7 are useful to the desert people in many ways. People can eat the meat and drink the milk of the animals. They use the camels for carrying water, food, tents and something else.
The people of the desert have to keep8 from place to place. They must always look for grass or desert plants for their animals. When there is no more food for their animals, they move to9 place. The desert people are friendly. No man in the desert would ever refuse10 the people in trouble and give them food and water.
