When I was very young, people in our village lived by planting fruit trees. My grandmother always took me to the orchard (果园) on the hill. At that time, they had to carry water from the river at the foot of the hill to halfway up the hill. Even though we worked so hard, the production level of fruit was still low because it was short of water there.
One day, two young men led a group of workers to our village. They learned about the difficulties we faced, and later, canals (渠) and other projects began to be built in my village. "Who are they " I asked. "They are good men from our government," my grandma replied.
Shortly afterwards, I moved to another city for my junior high school. The only reason I ever came back to my hometown was my grandmother.
One day, my family and I made time to return. We were surprised because everything had changed. The canal ran past every orchard so villagers didn't have to go up and down the hill anymore. The river was now so clean that fish swam happily in it. When we arrived home, my grandma took out some fresh pears and apples. She told us that after the water conservation project (水利工程) was completed, a policy (政策) was made to encourage more people to increase the fruit production with clean water in the river.
Thank those good men who have devoted themselves to the development of our countryside.
Nowadays, people work hard to live in a big city. However, we should not forget our hometowns where we are from.
31. What troubled the villagers most was that _____.
A.they had too much work

D.there wasn't enough water in the orchard
32. The good men came and offered help probably because of _____.
A.the villagers' suggestions B.the government's support
C.a school's practical activity D.a company's engineering plan
33. We can infer from the passage that _____.
A.the grandmother doesn't like to live in the city
B.the village is a place of interest for tourists now
C.there will be more fruit production in the village
D.more people like to work in the countryside nowadays
34. The underlined phrase "devoted themselves to" is closest in meaning to"_____".
A.prepared much for B.donated money to
C.drawn public attention to D.put much effort into
35. What can be the best title for the passage

四、阅读理解-阅读回答问题（共1小题）
I sometimes find that watching a film adaptation (改编) of a book helps me to understand a book. This is especially true for books from a different period or with a difficult dialect (方言).
My favourite examples of these include Pride and Prejudice, which is also my favourite book, and Trainspotting, which is written in Scottish dialect.
Film and TV adaptations of books also mean that books reach a wider audience (观众). If people really like the film, they will be encouraged to read the book. As for language learning, watching film or TV adaptations of books can help to provide an understanding of a story. They also help to give a story a more modern adaptation. For example, Oliver is a good adaptation of Charles Dickens' Oliver Twist. The language in the book can be enough to make a native speaker moved, but the adaptation means that everyone can enjoy the story of the orphan Oliver.
Similarly, the 1996 film Romeo and Juliet, an adaptation of the Shakespeare play of the same name, makes those of us who haven't studied Shakespeare still enjoy his play in a more interesting and understandable way.
Of course, there are limitations (局限) and not every story that is translated onto the screen is liked by fans of the book, or even the writer. For example, as a writer, P. L. Travers hated Disney's adaptation of her own book Mary Poppins, but it's now a well-loved film. For me, I dislike the adaptation of Still Alice by Lisa Genova and her group. They changed the location from Boston to New York for no real reason, which for some readers changes the whole feel of the book.
Anyway, adaptations are a great way to introduce yourself to the story and characters of a book before reading it. They're also a good way for people who may not feel confident enough to read a whole novel in a different language, but still want to know the story.
41. Is Pride and Prejudice the writer's favourite book
42. What will people do if they really like the film
43. Who hated the adaptation of her own book
44. Why does the writer dislike the adaptation of Still Alice
45. What's the passage mainly about
