Wednesday/Week 14
county in the faraway mountains has helped turn a dry, empty deep valley (山谷) into the forests where different kinds of trees grow well. This change happened in one of the places where few people could live.

You'd never know what it was like before if you passed through the Shipaogou area. That's where Wang Zhanfeng lives. The land there is covered with grass and trees. It looks totally different from before.

"In my childhood, we had to cover our bowls while eating. If not, the bowls would be filled with sand," Wang told China Daily.
Wang, his father, and his grandfather all took part in the tree-planting movement in Youyu county. The villagers said no to what nature seemed to give them. Instead, they started trying to use a new and hard way to plant trees.
The soil there was dry and couldn't hold water. So it wasn't easy to just plant trees where the villagers needed them most. Instead, the villagers grew young trees on the nearby hillsides. And they also watered each tree by hand.
After people planted trees for many years, great changes have taken place in Youyu county. It is now a big center for raising horses. The local economy also gets help from sheep wool, fruit, and tourism.

Wednesday
山西右玉县曾经干旱、荒芜,不适宜人类居住。经过当地居民多年持续不断地植树造林,现如今,那里绿树成荫。他们创造了将“不毛之地”变成“塞上绿洲”的生态奇迹。
1. C 细节理解题。由第一段第一句可知,右玉县的这个深谷以前干旱、荒芜。
2. D 细节理解题。由第三段可知,如果不盖住碗,碗里就会被填满沙子。
3. A 词义猜测题。由第四段最后两句可知,村民们不屈服于自然赐予他们的严酷条件,他们开始种树。由最后一段可知,右玉县现在不仅是我国养马基地,羊毛、水果、旅游业都使当地经济得到发展。由此可推知,这是该县的全部村民一起参加的植树运动。
4. D 细节理解题。由第五段第一句可知,对于村民而言植树不易是因为土壤干燥,且难以保水。
5. A 推理判断题。由最后一段最后一句可知,当地经济还依靠羊毛、水果和旅游业得到了进一步发展。由常识可推知,接下来或许有更多的人观光这个山谷。
