During the Qing Dynasty (清朝), this green Great Wall was a royal hunting land (皇家狩猎场) because of its cool summer weather and beautiful plants. However, most of the area had turned into a desert by the end of the Qing Dynasty. In the 1950s, this desert had fewer and fewer green plants or grass there. The wind only blew sand from this northern desert into Beijing. In the early 1960s, over 350 foresters came to this area to fight the desert. They were asked to plant trees in Saihanba. Few people, including the foresters, believed they would be successful.However, when they found the 200-year-old tree standing alone in the wind, they knew if one tree could live here, millions of trees would be here. After years of hard work, three generations (世代) of the foresters have increased forest cover from 11% to 80%. The forest now provides 137,000,000 cubic meters (立方米) of clean water for Beijing and Tianjin each year. “In the 55 years, people have been growing trees and △ ,” said Liu Haiying, director(主任) of Saihanba Forest Farm. “I believe that, as long as we go on promoting ecological civilization (推动生态文明) year after year, China can make more green miracles (奇迹) like Saihanba and own harmony ( 和谐)between humans and nature.” 59.

C Have you ever seen vegetables growing in balconies, rooftops (屋顶) and window boxes around your neighborhood? China's natural environment is good for vegetables'growth. It has more than 160 kinds of vegetables, the most in the world. It seems that Chinese people love to plant 八年级英语试题 第5页(共8页) vegetables in small spaces. Whenever they get a chance, they will grow vegetables. Also, Chinese scientists have built vegetable greenhouses in Antarctic (南极洲) research stations, such as the Kunlun Station. They use the greenhouses to grow cucumbers and lettuce(莴苣). In 2016, Chinese astronauts successfully planted lettu ce on the Shenzhou XI spacecraft. Lettuce there grows upward, just like it does on the earth. But this lettu ce grew taller and greener, according to Jing Haipeng, the astronaut who planted it. China was also open to foreign vegetables. For example, during the Western Han Dynasty,ZhangQian, who went to the Western Regions, brought back carrots, garlic and other vegetables.During the Ming Dynasty, potatoes, peppers, tomatoes and more vegetables were brought into China.China has a long history of planting vegetables. The Book of Songs ( 《诗经》) mentions many kinds of vegetables. The poem Cooing and Wooing ( 《关雎》) mentions xingcai. Chinese people are good at turning vegetables into delicious dishes. Take eggplants for example. In the West, people often grill them, which means cooking them over a fire without a pot.But Chinese people might stir-fry (炒) or steam them. Planting vegetables brings more than just food. It also brings joy and peace. Poets like Tao Yuanming lived in the countryside and did farm work like planting vegetables. Perhaps, some Chinese people still hope to live a simple life in the country. 62. According to Paragraph 1, what is good for growing vegetables in China? A. Large neighborhood. B.
