23、This is a tale of two friends—one is blind, the other has no arms. On their own, the two are “disabled”. But together, they are a powerful team that has changed part of their village in North China’s Hebei Province into a rich, green forest. Meet 53-year-old Jia Haixia and Jia Wenqi!

Their story began in 2000, when Haixia, who was already blind in his right eye, lost his left one after an illness. Wenqi lost his arms in an accident when he was just three. Neither (两个都不) could find a job, so the two decided to team up. They rented (租用) some poor land and began to plant trees. In return, the local officials paid them a small fee (费用).

Haixia and Wenqi never imagined (想象) that they would end up creating an environmental paradise (天堂). Their forest now has over 10,000 trees, hundreds of birds and many other wild animals. Moreover, it saves the village from river flooding during the rainy season.

When the friends work together, they focus on (集中) their strengths not their disabilities. Their day begins at 7 a. m. when the sightless (无视力的) Haixia carries Wenqi across the river to get to their worksite. Since they cannot afford to buy young trees to plant, the two use branches (分支) from existing trees. Haixia climbs to the tree-top and with Wenqi’s direction, selects (选择) the perfect branch. He then digs a hole and carefully plants it. Finally Wenqi waters the area.

Though hard-working, the men don’t make much money. But as Wenqi puts it, “We stand on our own feet, so the fruits of our work taste sweeter.”

Neither Haixia nor Wenqi cares about money. Together, they already have everything they need—a perfect pair of eyes, two strong hands, and the best friendship in the world!

B．They do not cost money.

C．They can grow very quickly.

A．they hope to make the forest even better

B．the fruits from their trees are very sweet

C．they are proud not to depend on others

D．they are able to do any difficult work

D．We can achieve more with teamwork.

24、What is the most important thing to a mountaineer? To Jamie Andrew, it′s everything but his limbs(四肢).

Andrew, from Edinburgh, had his limbs cut off after a snow storm at the top of a mountain in the Alps for five days, 15 years ago. He learned how to walk again within a year with the use of prosthetics(假肢) and has taken part in marathons(马拉松) to raise money for charity. But his greatest challenge is mountaineering.

Last year the man returned to his beloved activity, he wanted to stand on the top of the Matterhorn, a dangerous peak in the Alps. At least 500 people have lost their lives there.

Andrew tried to climb in August 2013. They started very early in the morning so that they would have time to come bake before nightfall. When they were about 200 meters from the top, the group was forced(被迫) to turn back because of the bad weather.

“It′s very hard to let go of a dream or a goal,” says Andrew. “But safety is the most important. Getting as far as we did was a great success in itself, and I feel very proud of that.” He is making plans for a second try.
