AWhen Luca first heard of the Island of Inventions, he was still very young. But its wonders sounded so incredible that they were forever burned in his memory. From that moment, he never stopped searching for clues which might lead him to the island. He read hundreds of adventure books, histories, volumes of physics and chemistry, even music.Over time, he pieced together his idea of what the Island of Inventions was like. It was a secret place, where all the great wise men of the world would meet to learn and invent together. Access to the island was totally restricted. To join, you had to have created some great invention for humanity. Only then could you receive the special invitation — which came with directions to the island.So Luca spent his youth studying and inventing. Every new idea he got, he made it into an invention, and if there were something he didn't understand, he’d seek others to help him. Soon he met other young inventors and he told them about the Island of Inventions. They too dreamed of one day receiving an invitation letter.As years passed, the disappointment of not receiving their invitation made Luca and his friends work harder and co-operate more. They would meet in Luca's house, share their ideas and build new machines. Their inventions became known throughout the world, and improved the lives of millions.But still, no invitation came.They didn’t lose heart. They continued learning and inventing every day, trying to come up with more and better ideas. Fresh young talent joined their group, as more inventors dreamed of getting to the island.One day many years later, Luca, already very old, was speaking with a brilliant young man named Roberts, who had written to him, asking him to join the group. Luca started telling the man of the wonderful Island of Inventions, and of how he was sure that some day they would receive an invitation. Surprised, the young inventor interrupted:―Y ou mean this place isn’t the Island of Inventions? Isn't the letter you sent me the real inv itation?‖It was only then that Luca realised that his dream had become true in his very own house. No island could exist which would be better than where he was now. No place of invention would be better than what he and his friends had created. Luca felt happy to know that he had always been on the island, and that his life of invention and study had been a truly happy one.26. Luca’s picture of the Island of Inventions was mainly based on ________.A. scientific researchB. his imaginationC. reports of othersD. history books27. Why did Luca and his colleagues probably never receive an invitation to theisland?A. Their ideas were not considered worthy enough.B. They were too concerned with acquiring fame.C. The organization had already broken up.D. The island was not a real place.28. What was Roberts’ reaction to Luca’s story of the island?A. He thought he had already arrived at the island.B. He was disappointed to discover it didn’t exist.C. He was excited about receiving an invitation.D. He expressed surprise that Luca believed in such fairy tales.29. What did Luca learn at the end of the story?A. The island of inventions did not exist.B. He had wasted most of his life.C. He had unknowingly built his own dreamland.D. He finally would receive his invitation.30. Which of the following best describes Luca?A. Aggressive.B. Trusting.C. Creative.D. Easy-going.BAs thousands of communities in the USA —especially in the South —became booming gateways for immigrant families from Central and South America during the 1990s and the early years of the new century, public schools struggled with the unfamiliar task of serving the large numbers of English learners arriving in their classrooms.Education programs needed to be built from scratch. ―We had no teaching resources suitable for English learners here before. We had to develop them all ourselves,‖ a Texas principal said. Throughout the country, distri cts had to train their own teachers to teach English to non-native speakers or recruit（招聘）teachers from elsewhere. School staff members had to figure out how to communicate with parents who spoke no English.But even as immigration has slowed or stopped in many places, and instructional programs for English-learners have matured, serving immigrant families and their children remains a work in progress in many public schools, especially those in communities that are skeptical, or sometimes unwelcoming, to the newcomers. One of the biggest challenges educators face, is communicating effectively with parents who don’t speak English — an issue that, in part, has contributed to recent complaints of discrimination by Latino students in some cities.―The parents’ role is very important for the success of these students, but it's also one of the most difficult things we’ve had to tackle,‖ said Jim D. Rollins, the president of the Springdale school district, where the 19,000-student school system has gone from having no English-learners 15 years ago to more than 7,500 now. ―Y ou have to make it a priority and work on it, work on it, and work on it.‖Aside from the practical challenges, such as finding bilingual (会说两种语言的) staff members, guiding districts through such dramatic changes requires school leaders to bridge difficult political and cultural divides. For school leaders in the South, especially in the last few years, this difficult job has been made harder still by the negative attitudes of some locals towards immigrants.31. According to the passage, what is the problem that public schools are facing?A. Handling more cases from the immigrant Mexican communities.B. Offering services to immigrant families in the southern states.C. Offering enough communicative lessons to immigrant parents.D. Providing education for non-native English learners.32. The underlined part ―built from scratch‖ (in Paragraph 2) probably means ―________‖.A. completely newB. painful to makeC. based on past experienceD. constructed gradually33. What is one of the things the school leaders have done to deal with the problems?A. Provide more Spanish-only classes.B. Invite more teachers from other places.C. Train their teachers to speak Spanish.D. Use bilingual parents as part-time teachers.34. What do we know about the immigrant parents?A. Many of them cannot speak English.B. Most of them think education is not important.C. Some of them feel skeptical about the local community.D. Few of them have attended American schools.35. According to Paragraph 3, what has caused some of the recent complaints by Latino students?A. Discrimination by schools.B. Unfriendliness of the locals.C. Miscommunication with parents.D. Poor government service.第二节信息匹配(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)阅读下列应用文及相关信息，并按照要求匹配信息。

I’m not sure 1 is more frightened, me or the female gorilla (大猩猩) that suddenly appears out of nowhere. I’m walking on a path in the forest in the Central African Republic. Unexpectedly, I’m face-to-face with the gorilla, who begins screaming at 2 top of her lungs. That makes her baby scream, and then a 400-pound male appears. He screams the 3 (loud) of all. The noise shakes the trees as the male beats his chest and charges toward me. I quickly lower myself, ducking my head to avoid 4 (look) directly into his eyes so he doesn’t feel 5 (challenge).My name is Mireya Mayor. I’m a 6 (science) who studies animals such as apes and monkeys. I was searching 7 these three western lowland gorillas I’d been observing. No one had seen them for hours, and my colleagues and I were worried.When the gorillas and I frightened each other, I was just glad to find 8 (they) alive. True to a gorilla’s unaggressive nature, the huge animal 9 (mean) me no real harm. He was just saying: “I’m king of this forest, and here is your reminder!” Once his message was delivered, he allowed me 10 (stay) and watch.1.____________2.____________3.____________4.____________5.____________6.____________7.____________8.____________9.____________ 10.____________二．（共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分）(2018年6月浙江卷)Few people I know seem to have much desire or time to cook.

The obvious one is money; eating out once or twice a week may be 7 (afford) but doing this most days adds up. There could be an even 8 (high) cost on your health. Researchers have found that there is a direct link between the increase in food eaten outside the home and the rise in 9 (weigh) problems.If you are not going to suffer this problem, then I suggest that the next time you go to your mum’s home 10 dinner, get a few cooking tips from her.

It is said that at first there was no cover for the pool so that he could enjoy the shining stars of the night while taking a bath.Tang WellIt has a long history of over 1,300 years and measures 1.9 meters long, 1.26 meters wide and 8.3meters deep. It was used just by Yang Yuhuan for drinking water.Huaqing Hot SpringsThey were named “The Fi Hot Springs in the World” in the Tang Dynasty by Emperor Xuanzong.The water temperature stays at 43℃ all year round.

D．A story book.（二）During the COP27 climate conference (会议) in Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt, an important deal on “loss and damage” was reached. This was a big step forward because at COP26 conference in Glasgow, Scotland, there were no talks on loss and damage at all. The plan is that richer countries will pay money into a special fund that will be used to help poor countries.Loss and damage means the damaging impact of climate change on developing countries. For nearly 30 years, poorer countries have been asking richer countries formoney to help to protect communities from the effects of climate change. Richer countries have produced the most greenhouse gases, but poorer countries are often the worst affected by extreme weather conditions because they are less well equipped to face extreme climate events.Brazil’s newly elected President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva made a speech about preserving the largest rainforest on Earth, the Amazon. During the last 50 years, more than 17% of the Amazon rainforest has been destroyed to make way for farms and towns. However, in his speech, Lula promised that there would be zero deforestation (伐树) in the Amazon by 2030. The conference didn’t just focus on world leaders. It brought together more than 45,000 people to discuss how climate change is affecting their lives. Climate refugees (难民) also had their voices heard. Tshilombo from the Kakuma refugee camp in Kenya said, “Refugees don’t only flee becaus e of war or conflict. It’s also about drought, the effects of climate change.”Some countries weren’t happy with the overall outcome of COP27 because decisions weren’t made on cutting the use of fossil fuels, such as coal, gas and oil, etc. The UK Governme nt’s Alok Sharma said, “I’m incredibly disappointed.”However, this deal was a great achievement for developing countries. Sherry Rehman, the climate minister for Pakistan, said, “I am confident we have tuned a comer in how we work together to achieve clim ate goals.”；4. What is a successful outcome of the COP27 climate conference?A．The deal on loss and damage.B．The deal on using fossil fuels.C．The deal on rainforest preservation.D．The deal on helping climate refugees.；5. What has made it difficult for developing countries to fight against climate change? A．More greenhouse gases.B．Massive deforestation.C．Shortage of money and supplies.D．Terrible weather conditions.；6. What can we infer from Paragraph 3?A．Climate change is influencing people’s live s.B．17% of the Amazon rainforest was destroyed.C．Many factors lead to the appearance of refugees.D．There will be less deforestation in the Amazon by 2030.；7. What would Sherry Rehman probably agree with?A．Never put off till tomorrow.B．Many hands make light work.C．Knowledge starts with practice.D．No way is impossible to courage.（三）What are you doing this weekend? Perhaps you're spending time with family, hanging out with friends, or maybe you're going to play a sport. All around the world, people chill out at the end of the working week and take part in leisure activities. In many countries, the weekend consists of Saturday and Sunday, while in others Friday and Saturday are the days of rest. In Afghanistan, Thursday and Friday form the weekend, while in one country, Brunei, Friday and Sunday are the days off.Have you ever stopped to wonder, though, exactly where it originated? And how is the concept going to change? The modern weekend took shape during the Industrial Revolution. In the early 19 century, in areas such as the north of England, people began to leave the countryside to work in towns and cities. There, new factories were springing up. Their working lives were once ruled by nature, with the amount of work depending on the changing seasons. Now, their employers demanded a different rhythm-a six-day week of up to 12 hours a day, followed by one day of rest.Campaigns for workers' rights appeared. By the end of the century they had managed to reduce the working week to five and a half days. This meant that working people could take an interest in hobbies such as photography, which was very new at the time. In the US in the 1920s, the industrialist Henry Ford helped to create the weekend. He gave all his workers Saturday and Sunday off work. His factories manufactured cars, and he wanted to allow his employees time to purchase and enjoy the cars they were producing.These days, in many countries, working a 40-hour week is normal. Many people have a nine-to-five job, but even that is rapidly changing. Technology enables more people to work from home and plan their own use of time. This means that an official period away from work is becoming less important. Perhaps in the future we will work fewer hours altogether. If we become more productive, we should be able to afford the same lifestyle by working fewer hours. It has been estimated, for example, that a worker in the US can achieve a 1950s standard of living by working just 1l hours a week. Some people have recommended a 21-hour working week to help with unemployment, climate change and inequality. However, a change like that may mean more leisure time but it will probably limit people's ability to earn money to enjoy it.8. What does the underlined word “originated” in the second paragraph me an? A．Relaxed. B．Started. C．Appeared suddenly. D．Stopped. 9. What happened as a result of campaigns on behalf of workers?A．People became more inventive.B．People worked fewer hours per day.C．People worked fewer hours overall.D．People found employment in leisure industries.10. The writer says an American businessman gave his workers time off so that A．he could produce more cars.B．they could spend money on cars.C．he didn’t have to pay them to drive.D．they would enjoy working with him.11. Why does the writer suggest the weekend may be less important now? A．Because we start work later than we used toB．Because nobody works over 40 hours a week.C．Because technology empowers individuals to arrange their own time. D．Because people are out control of their working week.二、七选五阅读Mondays are kind of annoying. 12 A recent survey says that most people get the pre-work “Sunday blues”. Starting your Monday feeling sad, anxious and unorganized is hardly the way to kick off a healthy week.The solution? Set aside a little time on Sunday to purposefully prepare yourself for the five days ahead, suggests women’s health expert Marsha Hudnall. 13Do some meal preparations.Figuring out what to have for dinner on weeknights can be surprisingly stressf ul. Stretching out a menu plan on Sunday and swinging by the grocery store for ingredients will help you eat well. Go a step further by chopping and cooking vegetables and a protein (like a roast chicken or scrambled eggs). 14 Or finally attempt a di fferent diet you’ve been meaning to try. For easy dinner planning, just order, and you’ll have a week’s worth of raw materials for delicious and healthy meals.Start a Sunday stress-relief habit.“To be healthy, we have to take care of body and mind,” says Hudnall. Stress has a major impact on health and our ability to concentrate. 15 Four ideas to try: a guided meditation with the help of an app; forest bathing－a practice known as shinrin-yoku in Japan, which basically means taking a long walk or hik e in a wooded area; gentle exercise like yoga; or time cuddling and playing with your pet.16Why not prepare your favorite clothes for Monday? Studies show that what you wear can have a significant effect on your mood. So make Monday the day you wear your favorite clothes or show the latest addition to your wardrobe (衣橱). It’s also a good idea to get some nice coffee or music ready, which will give you something to look forward to on your Monday commute.A．Give yourself something to look forward on Monday.B．Even Sunday afternoons turn sour as we think of the workweek ahead.C．Then all you have to do is heat and plate when you come home from work. D．Therefore, starting a Sunday stress-relieving habit can begin a week feeling strong and focused.E．Try creating a relaxing and winding down Sunday night so that you can recharge and get ready for Monday.F．Taking on just a few of these simple tips every Sunday will help you launch a productive, less stressful week.G．Wailing until the last moment to do weekend chores like paying bills or doing laundry can leave you anxious and stressed on Sunday.三、完型填空The stage lights dimmed (变昏暗), and I took a quick look from behind the heavy black curtains into the audience.

Enjoying a sunset with a romantic partner can make the occasion more special. The sunset watching spots on this list are perfect for Valentine’s Day — or anytime you want a little extra romance.Beauty by the SeaCartagena BayCARTAGENA, COLOMBIAA sunset cruise (航游) on the Bay of Cartagena is the perfect way to end your day when you are exploring the city that had its first residents in 4,000 B．C．This UNESCO World Heritage Site has beautiful beaches and a historic old town ready for arm-in-arm wandering. Anarchipelago, the beautiful Rosario Islands, is a one-hour boat ride from the mainland.Love and LightEiffel TowerPARISWhether you call it the City of Light or the City of Love, both nicknames for Paris hold true when you’re on top of the Eiffel Tower with your lo ved one at sunset. Watch the city lights come up as the sun goes down, champagne (香槟) in hand. Four restaurants are in this area. Plan to reserve your table weeks before arriving in town.Sunset in a Sphere (球体)AI Faisaliah TowerRIYADH, SAUDI ARABIAThe 876-foot AI Faisaliah Tower was the first skyscraper built in Saudi Arabia. The viewing platform provides an incredible look at the city, but for a romantic evening, make a reservation at The Globe. This three-story restaurant is housed inside the giant glass sphere at the top of the tower, surrounding you with the impressive view as you enjoy European cuisine with perfect service.1. If you are a history lover, which place is the best choice?A．Eiffel Tower.B．AI Faisaliah Tower.C．Cartagena Bay.D．City of Love.2. What can people do in both Eiffel Tower and AI Faisaliah Tower?A．Watch city lights.B．Enjoy food.C．Explore beautiful beaches.D．Experience AI service.3. Where is the text probably taken from?A．An academic article.B．An educational website.C．A geography textbook.D．A travel brochure.BThe recent launch of ChatGPT, a chatbot created by Open AI for public use, has underlined the growing reach of digital technologies like artificial intelligence (AI) in working life. Like most technological revolutions that affect the workplace, chatbots can potentially create winners and losers and will affect both blue-collar and white-collar workers.ChatGPT is a natural language processing (NLP) tool that allows users to interact with the GPT-3 model using natural language. The model is trained on a great amount of data, which allows it to generate human-like responses to a wide variety of inputs.This type of AI can greatly benefit the productivity of skilled workers. Chatbots offer the possibility to automate (使自动化) boring and time-consuming tasks, such as writing standardized reports, meeting minutes and emails. Workers could therefore be freed to focus on more important and creative tasks. A chatbot virtual personal assistant could guide skilled workers through different projects or production processes. It can also generate original content and ideas, and potentially help to research and develop new products and services.But tools such as ChatGPT presents a real risk of skilled and semi-skilled workers losing their jobs. For example, chatbots can be developed to train employees in an organization, resulting in the unemployment of human trainers.Previous waves of technological change have created both winners and losers. Workers who are quicker to adjust to technological change will win by increasingly taking on tasks complementary (互补的) to AI while giving up automated ones.；4. This passage centers around the effects of AI like ChatGPT on .A．life B．entertainment C．sports D．work；5. Paragraph 2 mainly talks about .A．what ChatGPT is B．how ChatGPT is usedC．why ChatGPT is created D．who created ChatGPT；6. In paragraph 3, how many benefits of Chatbots are mentioned?A．2. B．3. C．4. D．5.；7. According to the text, faced with technological revolutions, workers hadbetter .A．continue ahead with their automated jobs and work harderB．do other things while keeping up with the automated onesC．adapt to the change by doing other things to form a good combination with AID．give up automated jobs and just learn as much AI knowledge as possibleCTo deal with a big environmental problem, chemists have been thinking small. Really small. Their new tiny robot has one purpose: to help clean up tiny bits of plastic (塑料的) polluting waterways across the world.Each new microrobot is no bigger than the tip of a sharpened pencil. They are magnetic (磁的) and shaped like stars. When sunlight hits them, they produce chemical reactions (化学反应) that push them through water in a specific direction. When the y find a piece of plastic, they catch it and start to break it down. When the lights go out, they let go and are free to be used again. In a new study, the scientists reported that these robots can either break down a piece of microplastic or hold onto it to be collected later.Chemist Martin Pumera at the Czech University of Chemistry and Technology in Prague led the project. He studies ways to build microrobots. He says: “Let’s make them do something useful.”Pumera chose to center on the problem caused b y microplastics. It’s a big problem. These are tiny bits of plastic, usually no wider than the top of a pencil eraser. And they’re everywhere — from the bottom of the ocean to air blowing onto ice at the top of mountains. They’ve turned up in drinking wate r, both bottled and tap water. Some studies found that too many pieces of plastic end up in the world’s waters. Plastic doesn’t easily degrade (分解) or fall apart. That’s always been one of its study points.Pumera says his final goal is to make cheap and environmentally-friendly robots that can be used anywhere in the world. He thought that at first they might be most useful in plants that treat wastewater. There they can remove plastic before it reaches open water.In lab experiments, the star-shaped swimmers catch each of four different types of plastic. And after a week exposed (暴露) to light, the robots had reduced the weight of the plastics. It wasn’t much — only by 3 percent. But that was a sign they were breaking the plastic down.In fact, Pumera says they still have a long way to go. There are many types of plastics. And even these microrobots are unlikely to succeed in degrading them all.The researchers also have not yet shown how safe this system is for the environment, although Pumera says that’s t heir next goal. The first real-world test will be in a waste water-treatment plant.；8. What does the underlined word “they” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A．Microrobots. B．Stars.C．Pencils. D．Microplastics.；9. Paragraph 4 is mainly about .A．the experiment carried out by PumeraB．the functions that the microrobot holdsC．the places where microplastics usually turn upD．the reason why Pumera invented the microrobot；10. According to the passage microrobots .A．can break down plastics in the darkB．prove to be most useful in open waterC．do no harm to the environment at presentD．need further testing before they are put into use；11. What is the main purpose of the passage?A．To encourage people to find more solutions to pollutions.B．To present a new way of breaking down microplastics.C．To stress the importance of protecting the water.D．To explain a serious environmental problem.二、七选五阅读Camping is a fun and exciting experience, but to stay organized and safe, you must carefully prepare for the trip.12 . If it is just you or your family, things will become easier. However, if you are taking a group of friends, you’d better make sure you get insurance information and health information before you start. If someone is injured on the trip, the insurance information will make a huge difference in the care they receive. 13 . For example, for those who are suffering basic diseases, make sure they have enough medicines available.Then decide how long you will stay and figure out where you will be camping. If you do not know this, you will go through the trouble of purchasing and packing a tent when you were supposed to sleep in a cabin.14 . The food should be enough for three meals and an optional snack per day, as well as lots of water. Basically, ensure food safety. Foods like dairy products and meat go bad easily. 15 .At last, gather all of the other things on the “Things You’ll Need" list and try to pack them in a small, lightweight bag. 16 . Materials to deal with burns, cuts, and bumps should be prepared in it.A．Health information is also importantB．Stay calm when an accident happensC．Make sure they are fresh and safe to eatD．And never forget to pack up a first aid kitE．Firstly, decide with whom you are campingF．Taking exercise every day is a good way to keep healthyG．Of course, you’d better pack an appropriate amount of food三、语法填空17 most TV stations and video-streaming platforms try to attract viewers by producing star-studded(明星荟萃的)reality shows, Henan TV has gone viral(走红)by promoting traditional culture through Chinese dance.This year, Henan TV produced seven dance pieces 18 (highlight)traditional culture, such as Rhapsody on the Luo River Goddess(《洛神水赋》), a two-minute underwater dance, and Dragon Boat Festival and Guardian Warriors of Longmen(《龙门金刚》), a dance piece 19 (support)by AR technology against the backdrop of the Longmen Grottoes.Last month, Yao Wei, director of the TV station’s Innovation Center, was invitedto talk about how the TV station 20 (produce)the hit dance pieces at a three-day forum centering on the research of Chinese dance.The pieces made an emotional impact on audiences, most of 21 are members of Gen Z(people born between 1995 and 2009), Yao said.“It 22 (be)over forty years since the country’s reform and opening-up and the younger generations have grown up with a more open mindset. With plenty of resources and opportunities, they embrace Chinese culture and are proud of it,” said Yao. “ 23 we need to do is present Chinese culture and tradition in interesting ways for those young people.”Yao added that Henan TV has been producing shows highlighting traditional culture, such as traditional operas and kung fu, for nearly 30 years.“ 24 (appeal)to younger audiences, we are also changing our shows. One of the keys is to produce content with strong visual creativity,” Yao said. “For example, the latest technology and unconventional stage settings, like underwater scenes, have become our new ways of telling stories about traditional Chinese culture, rather than simply narrating history with traditional video content.”Another key to successfully 25 (reach)younger audiences is using social media platforms to promote their shows.“Social media 26 (shape)and driven by young people. It’s a powerful form of communication. When they take a quick scroll through their phones, they easily become interested in an eye-catching video,” Yao said.四、完形填空Mice are at their best at night. But a new analysis suggests researchers often test the nightly creatures during the day, which could alter results and create 27 across various studies, if they record time-of-day information 28 . Scientists assume that waking up lab mice in the daytime may twist research.Of the 200 papers examined in the new study, more than half cither failed to report the timing of behavioral testing or did so 29 . On the contrary, they found only 20percent reported 30 testing. The analysis was published in Neuroscience & Bio-behavioral Reviews.West Virginia University neuro-scientist Randy Nelson, the study's lead author, says this is likely a matter of human 31 . “It is easier to get students and schools to work duri ng the day than at night,” Nelson says. But that advantage 32 .“Time of day not only impacts the intensity of many 33 , including mice activity, aggressiveness of their behavior, and hormone levels,” but changes in those factors can only be 34 during certain parts of the daytime cycle, says University of Wyoming behavioral neuro-scientist William D．Todd. This means that “failing to report time of day of data collection and tests makes 35 of results extremely difficult,” adds Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center staff scientist Natalia Machado. Neither Todd nor Machado was involved in the new study.36 , the study researchers say it is critical that scientists report the timing of their work and consider the fact that animals' behavioral and physiological responses can 37 with the hour. As a first step, Nelson says, “obviously, taking time-of-day into consideration seems like 38 fruit in terms of line assing behavioral neuroscience research reliability, reproducibility and rigor (严谨性)University of Calgary psychologist Michael Antle, who was also not involved in the analysis, says such differences in how studies are run 39 a “reproducibility crisis” in science, with other laboratories unable to 40 study results. “Running a study at the wrong time,” he says, “could lead to us completely 41 a finding altogether.”27.

I met the Man of the Trees in summer ten years ago, when I was visiting Uncle Jita.Those were difficult times. People were cutting down our forest, and there was often flooding. Sometimes our water supply was dirty. When our pump(水泵)did have clean water, we had to wait in line for ages. When the pump wasn’t working, we had to walk five kilometres to the closest stream.But I was happy. I was going to see my favorite uncle. When the day finally arrived, Dad drove me to Uncle Jita’s house and left. Once he saw me, Uncle Jita announced, “Tomorrow we’re going to explore a magical place. Here is my camera, Amy. You can take photos of what you see.”The following day, we woke up and left early on a boat. The trip was exciting. But when we got off, there was ... nothing in front of us. “I don’t want to t ake pictures of this,” I complained.Uncle laughed,“Start walking, Amy. I promise you’ll be surprised.” After some time, I could see the outline of a forest in the distance. A little closer, there was a man waving to us.“That’s Kabir. The forest you see is his. He planted every single tree.” As we walked towards Kabir, Uncle explained that thirty years ago, the whole area was a wasteland. But one day Kabir decided to change all that and started planting trees. Thanks to him, part of the wasteland is now a paradise(天堂).Uncle introduced me to Kabir, who had gray hair and a determined face. “Jita told me you like animals. Are you ready to see some?” he asked. “Of course!” I replied. We continued walking and soon were under the trees. I turned my head and was amazed at the difference between the two places. All because of the efforts of one man.Like Uncle said, Kabir’s forest was magical. We saw deer, rhinos, and even tigers. During lunchtime, Kabir explained how, by planting trees, it was possible to stop the land from eroding(侵蚀).注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
