is blind,the other has no arms.On their own,the two are“disabled”.But together,they are a powerful team that has changed part of their village in North Chinas Hebei Province into a rich,green forest.Meet 53-year-old Jia Haixia and Jia Wenqi!Their story began in 2000,when Haixia,who was already blind in his right eye,lost his left one after an illness.Wenqi lost his arms in an accident when he was just three.Neither could find a job,so the two decided to team up.They rented some poor land and began to plant trees.In return,the local officials paid them a small fee.Haixia and Wenqi never imagined that they would end up creating an environmental paradise.Their forest now has over 10 000 trees,hundreds of birds and many other wild animals.In addition,it saves the village from river flooding during the rainy season.When the friends work together,they focus on their strengths not their disabilities.Their day begins at 7 a.m.when the sightless Haixia carries Wenqi across the river to get to their worksite.Since they cannot afford to buy young trees to plant,the two use branches from existing trees.Haixia climbs to the tree-top and with Wenqis direction,selects the perfect branch.He then digs a hole and carefully plants it.Finally Wenqi waters the area.Though hard-working,the men dont make much money.But as Wenqi puts it,“We stand on our own feet,so the fruits of our work taste sweeter.”Neither Haixia nor Wenqi cares about money.Together,they already have everything they needa perfect pair of eyes,two strong hands,and the best friendship in the world!46.Why did Haixia and Wenqi start working together?A.Haixia needed someone to help him.B.They both needed a way to make money.C.They wanted to improve the environment.D.They were required to do so by local officials.47.Haixia and Wenqis forest has helped the village by_.A.stopping floods in the rainy season B.increasing the number of tourists C.making the villagers richer D.providing more farmland 48.Why do Haixia and Wenqi plant tree branches?A.They are easy to get.B.They do not cost money.C.They can grow very quickly.D.They are preferred by animals.49.In paragraph 5,when Wenqi says“We stand on our own feet,so the fruits of our work taste sweeter”,he means that“_”.A.they hope to make the forest even better B.the fruits from their trees are very sweet C.they are proud not to depend on others D.they are able to do any difficult work 50.What can we learn from this story?A.Never give up and you will succeed.B.We should help the disabled to work.C.Try your best when facing difficulties.D.We can achieve more with teamwork.(B)Most of us could probably live without vegetables,but a world without chocolate?Now that would be hard!According to chocolate makers it could happen if we dont act soon.There are two main causes of the chocolate shortagechocolates growing popularity and less production of cocoa,the plant from which chocolate is made.With more and more people in India and China loving chocolate,not much can be done about the first cause.Therefore,the only thing we can do is to increase cocoa production.However,new plant diseases and little rain in Ivory Coast and Ghana,the worlds largest producers,have reduced cocoa production by 40 percent in the past 10 years.Whats worse,many cocoa farmers in Africa and other cocoa-producing countries like Indonesia and Venezuela are changing to easier-to-grow crops such as corn or rubber.This way,the farmers can make more money.-在-此-卷-上-答-题-无-效-毕业学校_ 姓名_ 考生号_ _ 英语试卷 第 7 页（共 10 页）英语试卷 第 8 页（共 10 页）To prevent more farmers from changing,researchers at the newly opened International Cocoa Control Centre,in the UK,are trying to create new cocoa plants that are stronger and faster growing.But first they must make sure the new plants are safe to grow.This takes a long time.First,each new plant is stored at the Control Centre for six months to make sure it is healthy.It is then planted in the Centres fields,studied and tested for another two years.Only after scientists are certain that theyre disease-free,will the plants be sent to farmers in West Africa or wherever else they are needed.To create new stronger types of cocoa,scientists at the Centre are combining the best parts from different cocoa plants.Though the world is facing a serious chocolate shortage,there is now hope!51.The first

at the Centre to make sure a cocoa plant is safe to grow?A.6 months.B.12 months.C.24 months.D.30 months.55.What is one of the purposes of the Cocoa Control Centre?A.To introduce cocoa production to more countries.B.To provide more chocolate for British people.C.To produce stronger types of cocoa plants.D.To make sure that cocoa is healthy to eat.(C)On March 3,1887,the lives of two amazing women were changed forever when Anne Sullivan,a poor university graduate,arrived at the home of the wealthy Keller family to teach their six-year-old daughter Helen.It was a difficult job as Helen was unable to see,hear or speak because of illness.Anne had been suggested to the Kellers by her university professor,a close friend of Mr.Keller.Before she arrived,Anne expected her new pupil to be a quiet,weak child.But Helen was nothing like that.When Anne first walked through the Kellers door,the energetic Helen nearly knocked her over in her hurry to feel Annes face,clothing and bag.Helen was

studying at Radcliffe University,and graduated first in her class in 1904.She was the very first blind and deaf person to get a university degree.How did she do it?Anne Sullivan read all of Helens
