Ⅲ. Read and answer the questions.
The Mu Us Desert in northwest China was a land without life for hundreds of years, and brought lots of sandstorms to Yulin, Shaanxi. But it is getting smaller year by year because people are planting lots of trees. Nowadays, about 80 percent of the desert has been turned green.
This is the result of generations (世代) of local hard work. In the 1970s, a woman called He Li'e led a team to plant trees in Bulanghe, Yulin. The work was more than tiring. They once spent a whole afternoon planting trees under the burning sun. But that night, a strong wind blew away all the young trees. Crying was useless. The next day, the team started over and planted all the trees again.
▲ One of them is Guo Chenggwang. He started to plant trees in his village in 1985 and spent all his life on it. Although Guo passed away in 2023, his children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren continued the job. The family has turned 30 square kilometres of desert into woods.
These trees make a big difference. The days with sandstorms in Yulin dropped from 100 in 2000 to just 10 now. It changes from "looking for green in the sand" in the past to "looking for sand in the green".
