(40 points)Text 1 4-year-old Antonio Vicente has spent the last four decades of his life fighting against the trend. As Brazilian landowners cut down rainforests to make room for profitable plantations(种植园) and cattle grounds, he struggled to bring the jungles of his childhood back to life.“When I was a child, the peasants cut down the trees to make grasslands and charcoal, and the water dried up and did not come back,” he told the reporters, “I thought: Water is valuable, no one makes water and the population will not stop growing. What is going to happen? We are going to run out of water.”With only some donkeys and a small team of hired workers, Antonio Vicente set about bringing back the forest to his land. What started out as a weekend hobby soon became a permanent way of life, and Antonio recalls often spending whole days and nights in his young jungle, surrounded by rats and foxes, and eating banana sandwiches for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Over the last 40 years, he has planted an estimated 50,000 trees on his 31-hectare land, which now make up a small but unique area of rainforest, and a haven for wildlife.As the forest grew, the water returned, and Antonio says that there are now over 20 water, sources on his land that were no longer there when he bought it. Then the animals started making a home there, Today, the forest is alive with the sounds of birds and insects living there, and more species are settling in every year.“There are toucans(巨嘴鸟), all kinds of birds, squirrels, lizards, and even the boars are returning,” 4-year-old Vicente says, “If you ask me who my family are, I would say all this right here, each one of these that I planted from a seed.”1、What do we learn about the Brazilian peasants?AThey wasted much water on farming.BThey focused on short-term profits,CThey cared much about the environment.DThey relied heavily on rainforests for a living.2、What used to be young Antonios biggest concern?AOverpopulation.BPolluted water.CLoss of grasslands.DWater shortage.3、What does the underlined word “haven” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?ATrapBDisasterCShelterDBalanc
