In Hebei， there is a small village called Yeli． Through the village，you can see green trees along the riverbank． However， you can hardly imagine that， about 16 years ago， this area was covered with rocks and weeds（杂草）． The big change is all because of years of hard work by two best friends： Jia Haixia， who is blind， and Jia Wenqi， who has no arms．
The two friends decided to plant trees to make a living back in 2002． Although both are disabled， they learned to work together by becoming each other's eyes and hands． With little money to buy young trees， they had to collect and plant cuttings（插枝，插条）． Every morning， they went to the riverbank together． Jia Wenqi walked in the front and Jia Haixia followed him by holding one of his friends empty sleeves （衣袖）． After they arrived at the riverbank， Jia Haixia would climb on his friend's shoulders to get cuttings and Jia Wenqi would tell him which cuttings were the best． After that， they dug holes on the ground and watered the cuttings together．
They planted 800 trees in the first year， but only two survived （存活）． They didn't give up． Instead， they continued to plant more in the next few years． The riverbank is now home to over ten thousand trees．
Today， the two friends no longer need to make a living by planting trees， but they have no plans to stop． They aim to plant as many trees as possible in the area so as to protect the village from flooding （洪水）and to improve the local environment．

Elephants are the largest land animals alive today． African elephants live in family groups called herds（群）． All of the elephants in the herd take care of each other． The leader of the herd is an old mother elephant． She is the matriarch （族长）． A herd may have as few as eight or as many as 100 elephants． The other elephants follow the matriarch because she knows how to keep them safe from coming danger．
Elephants learn by watching and copying other elephants， and also learn from life． Baby elephants stay with their mothers until they are fully grown at about ten years old． Elephants live to be 50 or 60 years old． Elephants are smart animals with long memories． In the dry season， a matriarch can remember where water was found in the past． The herd will follow her there． She can also remember the safest place for baby elephants to cross a fast﹣moving river．
Elephants talk to each other with rumbling sounds． Some rumbling sounds are so low and deep that people are unable to hear them． Elephants hear sounds not only with their ears， but also with their feet， and even trunks （long noses of the elephants）． They also greet each other by touching with their trunks and feet． If danger appears， mothers beat their ears to call their babies to them．
Other animals don't usually attack（攻击） elephants． However， a lion might try to attack a sick elephant or a baby． If this happens， the adult elephants circle around the baby elephants． The adults make louder sounds and hit the ground with their trunks． The matriarch puts herself between the lion and the herd． She beats her ears out to make herself look even larger． Then she lowers her herd and attacks the enemy（敌人） in a big cloud of dust（灰尘）．
