Bissell is a village in West Sahara. Before Ken Levin discovered it, people here tried many times to walk out of the desert, but they didn't. He asked everyone, but got the same answer: no matter (无论) which direction you walk towards, you will return to the starting point. However, Ken Levin walked northwards from Bissell, and went out of the desert three days and a half later.
Ken Levin wanted to know why, so he asked a villager to be his guide. He didn't take his compass and followed with only a stick. They walked about 800 miles during 10 days. On the morning of the 11th day, they returned to Bissell.
Ken Levin finally understood: the people of Bissell could not walk out because they didn't know the Pole Star (北极星) . In the desert, if a man goes only by his feeling, he will walk in circles of all sizes and the final footprint will probably be a shape of tape. The village of Bissell was in the middle of the desert without a reference. So it was impossible to walk out without knowing the Pole Star or taking a compass.
When Ken Levin left Bissel, he took a young man named Guteri. He told him he could walk out of the desert as long as he walked in the direction of the Pole Star in the night. Guterl followed Ken Levin's advice and succeeded.
21. How long did it take Ken Levin to walk out of the desert
A. Halfa day. B. Three days and a half. C. Ten days.
22. What did Ken Levin take with him on his second try
A. A compass. B.A tape. C.A stick
23.What is the passage mainly about
A. How to find the Pole Star at night.
B. How Ken Levin discovered Bissell.
C. How the Pole Star helped Bissell villagers walk out.
