Y e t p eople who live there managed to make a home and live in agreement with the land. The 4 people are the Bu shmen, whose home is the Kalahari Desert of South Africa. They make thei r living through their knowledge of a difficult and dangerous home. Duri ng the few days that it rains in the Kalahari, the Bush m en have no troubl e finding food. All kinks of plants and flowers grow in the desert. Hungry an imals from surrounding areas move into the desert. Hunting is easy. They canfollow animal tracks (踪迹) for days. Then they shoot their game (物) with poisoned arrows (毒箭). If the animal is only wounded, they will run after it for days under the hot sun. A Bushman can also find water where no one else can. Somet imes he will dig through the sand, looking for the water seeping (渗出) in after the rains where he knows. Then he puts a hollow reed (空芦苇)into the ground and sucks the water up through the reed, after that he will draw it out of sand. And then he will hide a kind of egg shell in the sand and remember where he has hidden it. If another Bushman f inds the shell, he will not use it---even if he is dying of thirst. He knows that another depends on the water being there. Nearly everything the Bushm en use comes from the desert. But it takes knowledge and skill to put every thing to use.
