Greening the Desert
Minqin County, located in the city of Wuwei in Gansu Province, is between China’s third and fourth largest deserts — the Badain Jaran and the Tengger. Local people plant suosuo trees, a plant that can survive in the desert, to prevent further desertification(沙漠化).
A number of local people have worked hard to turn the place into an oasis(绿洲). 27-year-old Zhong Lin is one of them. Growing up in Minqin, Zhong experienced sandstorms throughout his childhood. He once wanted to run away from his hometown and build his future in southern China.
However, he changed his mind when he saw the villagers’ hard life and the terrible environment there. He said, “Suddenly I understood — running away isn’t the solution. Making a difference is the key.” After graduating from university in 2020, Zhong returned to his hometown. “If suosuo trees can take root in sandstorms, why can’t young people?” he wrote in his diary.
Since then, Zhong has tried planting suosuo trees in the desert. He planted 500 trees in 2021, but most of them died. So he studied, learned from experienced villagers, and then planted more. After three years’ efforts, the trees he planted are now growing well in the desert, turning the land green and lively.
To draw attention to his hometown’s environment, Zhong shared videos about tree planting online and started a “Please Plant a Tree in Minqin” activity. Encouraged by Zhong’s tree-planting story, more and more volunteers from all over the country have come to Minqin to plant trees. Their common goal is to turn the desert into an oasis.

A.Because planting suosuo trees is not difficult.
B. Because suosuo trees need little water or care.
C. Because suosuo trees can take root in any climate.

( )3. What did Zhong Lin decide to do after graduation?
A.Run away from his hometown.
B. Build his future in southern China.

B. To enjoy the scenery of the deserts.
C. To learn more about Zhong Lin.
D. To share videos about tree-planting.
B
Last week, I went back to my hometown, a small village I left five years ago. I remembered small streets and old houses. But everything was different now. Wide, smooth roads appeared, with new streetlights standing like guards. The small shops were gone, and there was a modern supermarket instead. The most surprising thing was seeing shared bicycles parked neatly near the bus stop. The view was totally new.
My family’s house looked the same outside, but inside it had changed. My father showed me a smart speaker. “Just talk to it,” he said. He asked for weather, and it answered at once. “We also buy food and things online now,” he added. In the living room, my little niece was not playing with toys. She was watching a learning video on a tablet, learning about animals from faraway places.
The village square, once quiet, was now busy every evening. Groups of people were dancing with videos on a big screen. Next to them, some young people were selling local fruits by live shows on their phones. “This way, we sell to people in cities directly,” one seller told me. The square was not just a place to rest, but a window to the wider world.
Yet, I felt a little sad. I met my old teacher, Mr Chen, and asked how he felt. He smiled, “Life is easy. I can read news from everywhere at once. But I miss the days when students borrowed real books from my small shelf, touching the paper and sharing stories together.” Modern tools save time, but sometimes they leave less space for simple, happy moments together.
As I walked to the bus station to leave, I understood something. Our world is changing fast, bringing useful tools and new ways to live. We should welcome these changes that make life easier. But we must also remember to keep the warmth between people — the warmth of a real talk, the joy of sharing a book. Real progress is not just about newer things, but about building a better life that still keeps what makes us human.
( )6. What surprised the author most about the village’s change?
A. The wide, smooth roads.
B. The modern supermarket.
C. The shared bicycles parked near the bus stop.
D. The new streetlights.
( )7. What was the author’s niece doing in the living room?
A.Playing with toys.
B. Watching a learning video.
C. Talking to a smart speaker.
D. Drawing pictures.
( )8. What does the underlined word “they” in Paragraph 4 refer to?
A.The students. B. The real books.
C. The simple, happy moments. D. Modern tools.
( )9. What would the writer probably do in the future?
A.Return to the village and live there forever.
B. Value both modern life and warm relationships.
C. Ask the villagers to give up all modern tools.
D. Stop using digital tools like Mr Chen.
( )10. What’s the main idea of the passage?
A.All changes in the village are good and welcome.
B. Modern technology makes village life cold and lonely.
C. Progress means new tools plus warm human relationships.
D. The writer prefers the simple past life to modern life.

1. villagers village 是名词,空后谓语动词是复数 left,故填复数名词 villagers(村民)。

3. to offer 空格后是动词原形 offer,作目的状语,用不定式 to offer(为了提供)。

Greening the Desert
Minqin County, located in the city of Wuwei in Gansu Province, is between China’s third and fourth largest deserts — the Badain Jaran and the Tengger. Local people plant suosuo trees, a plant that can survive in the desert, to prevent further desertification(沙漠化).
A number of local people have worked hard to turn the place into an oasis(绿洲). 27-year-old Zhong Lin is one of them. Growing up in Minqin, Zhong experienced sandstorms throughout his childhood. He once wanted to run away from his hometown and build his future in southern China.
However, he changed his mind when he saw the villagers’ hard life and the terrible environment there. He said, “Suddenly I understood — running away isn’t the solution. Making a difference is the key.” After graduating from university in 2020, Zhong returned to his hometown. “If suosuo trees can take root in sandstorms, why can’t young people?” he wrote in his diary.
Since then, Zhong has tried planting suosuo trees in the desert. He planted 500 trees in 2021, but most of them died. So he studied, learned from experienced villagers, and then planted more. After three years’ efforts, the trees he planted are now growing well in the desert, turning the land green and lively.
To draw attention to his hometown’s environment, Zhong shared videos about tree planting online and started a “Please Plant a Tree in Minqin” activity. Encouraged by Zhong’s tree-planting story, more and more volunteers from all over the country have come to Minqin to plant trees. Their common goal is to turn the desert into an oasis.

B
Last week, I went back to my hometown, a small village I left five years ago. I remembered small streets and old houses. But everything was different now. Wide, smooth roads appeared, with new streetlights standing like guards. The small shops were gone, and there was a modern supermarket instead. The most surprising thing was seeing shared bicycles parked neatly near the bus stop. The view was totally new.
My family’s house looked the same outside, but inside it had changed. My father showed me a smart speaker. “Just talk to it,” he said. He asked for weather, and it answered at once. “We also buy food and things online now,” he added. In the living room, my little niece was not playing with toys. She was watching a learning video on a tablet, learning about animals from faraway places.
The village square, once quiet, was now busy every evening. Groups of people were dancing with videos on a big screen. Next to them, some young people were selling local fruits by live shows on their phones. “This way, we sell to people in cities directly,” one seller told me. The square was not just a place to rest, but a window to the wider world.
Yet, I felt a little sad. I met my old teacher, Mr Chen, and asked how he felt. He smiled, “Life is easy. I can read news from everywhere at once. But I miss the days when students borrowed real books from my small shelf, touching the paper and sharing stories together.” Modern tools save time, but sometimes they leave less space for simple, happy moments together.
As I walked to the bus station to leave, I understood something. Our world is changing fast, bringing useful tools and new ways to live. We should welcome these changes that make life easier. But we must also remember to keep the warmth between people — the warmth of a real talk, the joy of sharing a book. Real progress is not just about newer things, but about building a better life that still keeps what makes us human.

A.Return to the village and live there forever.
B. Value both modern life and warm relationships.
C. Ask the villagers to give up all modern tools.
D. Stop using digital tools like Mr Chen.
