Question

【题目】 This is a tale of two friends Jia Haixia and Jia Wenqi—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 into a rich, green forest.

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 could find a job, so the two decided to team up. They rented（租）some poor land and began to plant trees. In return, the local officials paid them a small fee.

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

When they work together, they focus on（聚焦） their strengths not their disabilities. Their day begins at 7 am. When the sightless 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（树枝） from existing trees. Haixia climbs to the treetop and with Wenqi's direction,chooses the perfect branch. He then digs a hole and carefully plants it. Finally Wenqi waters the area. As Wenqi waters,Haixia says to others, “We are proud not to depend on others.”

Though they work hard, they don't make much money. 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!
