Ever since “Mother Nature” gave me life, I have expected to grow tall and big.
As a young 1 , I was well protected in the forest. I used to have a good time with my friends under the blue sky and 2 the river. Our only purpose was to stand high. My friend Tim often said, “All I ask for is to be 3 the whole day.”
More than 300 days passed and we grew straight. Until one day, our 4 birthday, people came, moved us from the earth and put us on their trucks. “I don't want to go!” Tim cried.
After a long journey, we arrived at a completely different place with 5 green. Here we were planted in a line. 6 the wind blew strongly, I could not even open my eyes to see Tim 7 beside me. So we needed enough water to grow thicker and higher to stop the wind.
As time went by, we finally became much stronger. I could keep my eyes open in the wind! I even found the blue sky was back!
This was no longer a no man's land, and hundreds of visitors came here. A man took a picture of us with his camera, “Thank you. We can enjoy clear days 8 worrying about sandstorms.” A young girl jumping up and down came over and hugged me. “Thank you,” she said. “It's you that have 9 the desert(沙漠) into a green land!”

### 二、完形填空（10分）
自从“大自然母亲”赋予我生命以来，我就期望自己长得又高又大。
作为一棵小**树**，我在森林里受到了很好的保护。我过去常常和朋友们在蓝天下、**沿着**河边愉快地玩耍。我们唯一的目标就是长得高大。我的朋友蒂姆经常说：“我只希望一整天都**快乐**。”
300多天过去了，我们长得笔直。直到有一天，我们的**第一**个生日，人们来了，把我们从土里挖出来，放到了他们的卡车上。“我不想走！”蒂姆喊道。
经过一段漫长的旅程，我们来到了一个完全不同的地方，这里**没有**一点绿色。在这里，我们被排成一排种下。**因为**风刮得很大，我甚至都睁不开眼睛，无法**清楚地**看到我旁边的蒂姆。所以我们需要足够的水来长得更粗更高，以阻挡风。
随着时间的推移，我们终于变得强壮多了。我在风中可以睁开眼睛了！我甚至发现蓝天又回来了！
这里不再是一片无人之地，成百上千的游客来到这里。一个男人用相机给我们拍了照，“谢谢你们。我们可以享受晴朗的日子，**不用**担心沙尘暴了。”一个蹦蹦跳跳的小女孩走过来拥抱了我。“谢谢你们，”她说，“是你们把沙漠**变成**了一片绿色的土地！”
蒂姆和我相视一笑，感到很**自豪**。太阳在更蓝的天空中明亮地照耀着。
