Planting roses along the desert's edge is not the end.The real goal is to stop the sand from spreading ( forever.Once it was"sand coming,people leaving.Now it's green coming,sand leaving"-and soon,people and sand will live together happily.Each generation works to build a"Green Great Wall".These blooming roses show that with hard work,even the desert can become a place of life. 81.How many roses did workers plant in the Taklimakan Desert? 第7页/共8页 A 82.What do the roses look like around the desert? 83.Do the roses only make the desert heautiful? 84.How did people in Qiemo ('ounty work to stop the desert from spreading? △ 85.What do you think will happen to the desert in the future? 八、书面表达（共1题：满分15分） 假如你是Sn,你决定利用即将到来的实假，参加环境保护协会的冬今背。请你根据表格内容，写 一篇英文短文向主办方介绍你自己，中请加入冬令营。 身份 阳光中学(Sunshine Middle School)八年级1班的学生，I4岁男生 性格 helpful,energetic...... 灭好 最喜欢冬天，可以打雪仗堆雪人：热罗各种野生动物，州为… 加：入原村 理鲜白然环境的重要性，想尽力改善野件动物生存条件（至少1个 方法) 要水：1.所写内容必须包括所有信息，可适当发猝： 2.文章不少于90词，开头己给出，不计入总词数： 3.文中不得出现贞实的姓名、校名等信息。 Dear Sir.
