Rainforests are called the lungs (肺) of the world. Because we breathe air with our lungs, and there are much more trees producing fresh air in rainforests.
Rainforests can be divided into four layers (层次). The forest floor is the ground level. It is the darkest because there is little sunlight. When dead leaves and animals are on the ground, they are broken down into organic matter (有机物) by the heat and the many small insects. The second layer starts from the ground to about 20 metres.这些树和植物比草高一点儿. It is still quite dark at this level, so the trees grow slowly. Some of these trees grow tall and pointed at the top to reach the sunlight. Other plants, like vines, cling onto the trees and get a free ride towards the sunlight.
The third layer is made up of the limbs (主干) and leaves of trees. This is a very thick layer: 20 to 50m off the ground. Insects, birds, reptiles, and monkeys live in this layer. This layer of leaves and branches catch the sunlight and also most of the rain.
The top layer is called the emergent layer (树冠层). The top of the tallest trees can stretch more than 50 m high. These trees are old and big but there are not too many of them. These trees have huge leafy heads that stretch wide because they have more room to grow.
(1)、What are rainforests called?(2)、Why do the trees grow slowly at the second layer?(3)、Do you want to help plant trees? Why?(4)、将下划线的句子翻译成中文。(5)、将下划线的句子翻译成英文。 -

Life has a way of shaping us. Life can make you doubt or question your purpose (目标). These are thoughts that I have had in my head for many years. Poetry prepares me for my purpose. My purpose is poetry.
In my journey toward purpose, poetry is my safety net because it releases me from pain. I started writing at the age of 5. By 13, I had written quite a lot of poems. Poetry was my escape from bullying (霸凌). I experienced from some people around me. They bullied me because of the way I looked. This gave me low self-esteem (自尊). Poetry was my way to be seen, be heard and be known.
For each important moment in my life, I write poetry. In hard times, I write poetry. I connect with poetry on a deep level. However, writing poetry can't support me. So I turned to teaching instead.
While living in China, I worked as an English teacher. I help teach two classes. The two Chinese teachers I work with gave me feedback on how to teach the students English. They also decided what I needed to do in the classroom. With challenging situations like this, I continue writing poetry. I write down my feelings. I reflect. I embrace (欣然接受) a new me. I learn to think positively. My relationship with poetry has grown over time. Poetry stays in the depths of my soul.
Nothing is stopping you. The only person standing in your way is you. You have the power. Keep going. Keep believing. Remember that your hard work is not in vain. Go for it! Your purpose is waiting for you!

Take a look at this old round structure made of earth and wood, where history comes alive. Welcome to Fujian's tulou!
There are thousands of tulou across Fujian, with Yongding being home to 1,768 of them. They were built by the Hakka people, a group who moved from China's central plains to the mountains in the south to avoid wars centuries ago.
Have you ever dreamed of spending a day living in a tulou? Now, that dream can come true. Shenheng Lou, a tulou in Yongding with nearly four centuries of history, has now become a hotel. It has been turned from an old building into a fine hotel with lots of money put into it. Last year, around 5,000 guests stayed in the hotel.
Lin Hui, the manager, understands the building and its history. She was born in 1986 inside the walls of another tulou in Yongding. According to Lin, the building will become weak if it is no longer in use. Every space in a tulou is connected, so if one room becomes weak, the nearby rooms can also fall.
The rebuilding fixed the old problems and also added important things like toilets. Steel was added to make the mostly wooden building stronger.
In Fujian, 46 tulou were listed as UNESCO World Heritage Sites in 2018 because of their historical value, including 23 tulou in Yongding. Lin Shangkang, a 52-year-old local man, lives in another World Heritage site, Zhencheng Lou. He works as a tour guide to his home." I never get tired of telling visitors about the history of this place; I enjoy it," Lin said. His great-grandfather and his brothers built the building a century ago. Today, the tulou is still home to 18 families. Together, there are about 80 people living there.
Zeng Jieshan, a 16-year-old high school student from Shenzhen, Guangdong, traveled four hours by train to experience the tulou up close." I used to think ancient buildings were mostly temples or royal palaces, like the Forbidden City," Zeng said." But here in the tulou, people still live happily."
(1)、How many tulou are there in Yongding?A、1,768 B、5,000 C、46(2)、When did they list 46 tulou as World Heritage Sites?A、In 2023. B、In 2020. C、In 2018.(3)、What influence we can know from the listing of tulou as UNESCO World Heritage Sites?A、The number of people living in tulou dropped a lot. B、The tourism value of tulou went up. C、The architectural style of tulou changed little by little.(4)、Why was steel put in when the tulou was rebuilt?A、To make the tulou look better. B、To make the tulou stronger against earthquakes. C、To make the mostly wooden parts stronger. -
