Read the passage carefully and choose the correct answer.
A desert is a hostile, potentially deadly environment for unprepared humans. In hot
desert, high temperatures cause rapid loss of water due to sweating, and the absence of water
sources with which to replenish it can result in dehydration and death within a few days. In
addition, unprotected humans are also at risk from heatstroke.
Humans may also have to adapt to sandstorms in some desert, not just in their adverse
effect on respiratory systems and eyes, but also in their potentially harmful effects on equipment
such as filters, vehicles and communication equipment. Sandstorms can last for hours, sometimes
even days.
Despite this, some cultures have made hot deserts their home for thousands of years,
including the Bedouin, Tuareg tribe, and Pueblo people. Modern technology, including advanced
irrigation systems, desalinization and air conditioning, has made desert much more hospitable. In
the United States and Israel for example, desert farming has found extensive use.
In cold desert, hypothermia and frostbite are the chief hazards, as well as dehydration in
the absence of a source of heat to melt ice for drinking. Falling through pack-ice or surface ice
layers into freezing water is a particular danger requiring emergency action to prevent rapid
hypothermia. Starvation is also a hazard; in low temeratures the body requires much more food
energy to maintain body heat and to move. As with hot desert, some people such as the Inuit
have adapted to the harsh conditions of cold deserts.
