In 1985,at the age of 19,Yin moved there with her husband,Bai Wanxiang.The living conditions were terrible.Strong winds blew sand non-stop,and sand piles would often block their door.There were few trees and almost no shade(阴凉处).She once feared being trapped(受困于)with nobody to give a hand, Facing a shortage of food and water,many people believed the land was too difficult to change. However,Yin refused to give in.She made up her mind to plant trees.She carried heavy young trees with simple tools.She learned how to protect the young plants from strong winds.Gradually, green plants began to appear.With the strong support and efforts of the local people,more than 70,000 mu of sandy land around their home has been improved.This was a great achievement for the whole village. In 1999,an American teacher named Ronald Sakolsky learned about Yin's efforts on a TV program.Deeply moved by her spirit,he raised $5,000 from US groups to support her work.The money helped Yin get better equipment()and stronger young trees.Later,Sakolsky visited her home.Unluckily,they lost contact after he returned to the US.Twenty-six years passed,and Yin posted a short video online to look for him.With public help,they got in touch again. When they finally met,tears rolled down their faces.Their cross-border friendship shows that determination and kindness are powerful enough to change the world. 24.What was the living condition like when Yin Yuzhen first arrived in Inner Mongolia?

Our brain helps us store and recall memories.Many people believe good memory is a gift only for a few lucky people.However,this is not tue.Scientists have found that the hippocampus(海马体)，an important part of our brain,plays a key role in building memories.Keeping our hippocampus active is very helpful for our study and daily life.It will stay important as we learn new things. One example shows how we can protect the hippocampus and improve memory.Some students easily forget new words they learned.They read the words once and stop reviewing.Scientists give a useful suggestion:review the new information at proper time. 2 When we go over what we have learned,the hippocampus will keep working and make memories stronger.This simple method works well. According to brain scientists,we will need a good memory more often in the future.To help people remember better,some experts have developed useful memory strategies.These strategies help people process information in different ways and form long-term memories. We can use several simple ways to train our memory.Each way helps the hippocampus work differently.For example,linking new knowledge with pictures helps the hippocampus take in information easily.Taking short breaks after study is helpful.It helps our brain rest and makes sure memories will not be lost quickly. So next time you need to remember something,try to use good memory strategies.Look at it from different perspectives,and you may come up with new and useful ideas to remember things well. 27.Who do many people think good memory is for? A.Farmers and drivers. B.Artists and designers. C.A few lucky people. 28.What have experts developed to help people remember better? A.Some special study rules. B.Useful memory strategies. C.Different kinds of hippocampus. 29.What does the underlined word"perspectives"'in the last paragraph mean? A.ways B.places C.facts 30.What is the main idea of the text?
