Cao Zhawa has been planting trees for most of his life. He lives and works in the heart of Mu Us Sandyland, an area in the southwest part of Inner Mongolia.
In 1958, when he was just 16 years old, Cao started planting trees. Cao’s trees now cover an area of more than 1.3 million square meters. Cao’s forest is worth an estimated 10 million yuan and can produce 100,000 kilograms oxygen, enough to sustain a full-grown adult for nearly a year.
Mu Us Sandyland is one of the places in China most affected by erosion(侵蚀) and desertification. The amount of annual rainfall ranges from 150 to 300 millimeters, while evaporation(蒸发) between 2,000 and 3,000 millimeters. Cao recalls that his growing-up was troubled by sandstorms. This was one of the factors that motivated Cao to join and stay on the tree-planting program.
Popularly known as the “Green Great Wall”, the project, which is set for completion in 2050, would be a 4, 800-kilometer greenbelt of trees and shrubs(灌木) protecting the area from strong winds and preventing soil erosion. Since the start of the Three-North Shelter Forest Program, millions of people have joined in and become a vital part of the plan.
However the tree-planters face a host of challenges, with watering the most difficult among them. “When I was young, the level of groundwater was high,” said Cao, “But with less rain, the trees are hard to plant and keep alive.”
Planting trees has also become harder for Cao as he ages. However, he doesn’t want to leave the forest in the care of his children, and he insists the land belongs to the government. “When I die, I just want to be buried under the trees,” Cao said. “Then I will be with them forever.”
4. By listing the figures in Paragraph 2, the author wants to ________.
A. show Cao has had a hard life B. praise Cao for his contribution
C. tell us how much oxygen an adult needs D. make it clear that Cao has made a fortune
5. Why did Cao make up his mind to plant trees
A. Evaporation in his hometown was serious. B. He had no other ways to earn a living.
C. He found it a pleasure to plant trees. D. Sandstorms kept striking his hometown.
6. What does Cao Zhawa most care about
A. His health. B. His wealth.
C. Forest ownership(所有权) D. Children’s future.
7. What’s the best title for the passage
A. An Elder in the Desert B. A Life Devoted to Planting Trees
C. Mu Us Sandyland Requires Forest D. Cao Zhawa—a Peasant with a Great Dream
【答案】4. B 5. D 6. C 7. B
【解析】
【分析】本文是记叙文。文章主要介绍了Cao Zhawa从16岁开始就在沙漠地区种植树木，以防风固林，抵御沙尘暴。他用了他的毕生心血来种树，现在他种植的树的面积已超过130万平方米，森林价值约1000万元，能产生10万公斤氧气，可提供一个成年人将近一年的供氧量。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中In 1958, when he was just 16 years old, Cao started planting trees. Cao’s trees now cover an area of more than 1.3 million square meters. Cao’s forest is worth an estimated 10 million yuan and can produce 100,000 kilograms oxygen, enough to sustain a full-grown adult for nearly a year.(1958年，年仅16岁的曹开始植树，目前曹的树木面积已超过130万平方米，曹的森林价值约1000万元，能产生10万公斤氧气，可提供一个成年人将近一年的供氧量。)可推知，这些数据表明，Cao Zhawa在植树方面取得了很大的成就，作者是为了称赞Cao Zhawa。故选B。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中Mu Us Sandyland is one of the places in China most affected by erosion(侵蚀) and desertification…This was one of the factors that motivated Cao to join and stay on the tree-planting program.(毛乌素沙地是中国受侵蚀和荒漠化影响最严重的地方之一……这是促使他开始植树计划的原因之一)可知，沙尘暴经常侵袭他的家乡，这让他决定要植树。故选D。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中的However, he doesn’t want to leave the forest in the care of his children, and he insists the land belongs to the government.(然而，他不想把森林留给他的孩子们，他坚持土地属于政府)可知，他最在意的是以后森林的归属权，他坚持属于政府，属于国家。故选C。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段中Cao Zhawa has been planting trees for most of his life. He lives and works in the heart of Mu Us Sandyland, an area in the southwest part of Inner Mongolia.(Cao Zhawa大半辈子都在种树，他生活和工作在内蒙古西南部毛乌素沙地的中心地带)可知，文章主要讲述了一个奉献一生来种树的老人的故事。B项A Life Devoted to Planting Trees(献身植树造林的一生)适合做本文最佳标题。故选B。
C
I was desperately nervous about becoming car-free. But eight months ago our car was hit by a passing vehicle and it was destroyed. No problem, I thought: we’ll buy another. But the insurance payout didn’t even begin to cover the costs of buying a new car－I worked out that, with the loan, we’d need plus petrol, insurance, parking permits and tax, we would make a payment as much as 600 a month.
And that’s when I had my fancy idea. Why not just give up having a car at all I live in London. We have a railway station behind our house, a tube station 10 minutes’ walk away, and a bus stop at the end of the street. A new car club had just opened in our area, and one of its shiny little red Peugeots was parked nearby. If any family in Britain could live without a car, I reasoned, then surely we were that family.
But my new car-free idea, sadly, wasn’t shared by my family. My teenage daughters were horrified. What would their friends think about our family being “too poor to afford a car” (I wasn’t that bothered what they thought, and I suggested the girls should take the same approach.)
My friends, too, were astonished at our plan. What would happen if someone got seriously ill overnight and needed to go to hospital (an ambulance) How would the children get to and from their many events (buses and trains) People smiled as though this was another of my mad ideas, before saying they were sure I’d soon realize that a car was a necessity.
Eight months on, I wonder whether we’ll ever own a car again. The idea that you “have to” own a car, especially if you live in a city, is all in the mind. I live—and many other citizens do too—in a place that has never been better served by public transport, and yet car ownership has never been higher. We worry about rising car costs, but we’d be better off asking something much more basic: do I really need a car Certainly the answer is no, and I’m a lot richer because I dared to ask the question.
8. The author decided to live a car-free life partly because ______.
A. most families chose to go car-free
B. he was hurt in a terrible car accident
C. the cost of a new car was too much
D. the traffic jam was unbearable for him
9. What is the attitude of the author’s family toward his plan
A. Supportive. B. Disapproving.
C. Optimistic. D. Unconcerned.
10. What did the author suggest his daughters do about their friends’ opinion
A. Argue against it. B. Take their advice.
C. Think it over. D. Leave it alone.
11. What conclusion did the author draw after the eight-month car-free life
A. Life cannot go without a car.
B. Life without a car is a little bit hard.
C. His life gets improved without a car.
D. A car-free life does not suit everyone.
【答案】8. C 9. B 10. D 11. C
【解析】
【分析】作者的旧车不幸被撞毁了，准备买新车时，发现私家车成本高昂，而作者住址附近的公共交通非常发达，因此作者觉得没有必要买车，但家里人反对，作者说服了家里人，经过八个月后，作者感觉没买车让他变富裕不少。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句I worked out that, with the loan, we’d need plus petrol, insurance, parking permits and tax, we would make a payment as much as 600 a month.可知，因为买新车所花的费用太多了，所以作者决定不买汽车了。故C项正确。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段第一句But my new car-free idea, sadly, wasn’t shared by my family.可知，作者不买车的想法并没有得到家人的支持。在本段接下来的内容中详细介绍了家人反对我的观点的理由。故B正确。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段最后一句(I wasn’t that bothered what they thought, and I suggested the girls should take the same approach.)可知，我并没有受到他们的影响，我建议女儿的朋友应该和我们一样不买汽车。也就是说我建议女儿不要理睬别人的观点。故D正确。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后两句We worry about rising car costs, but we’d be better off asking something much more basic: do I really need a car Certainly the answer is no, and I’m a lot richer because I dared to ask the question.可知，对于是否应该有汽车的问题，我的答案是不。因为我从没车的八个月里得出的结论就是：没了车，我变有钱了。故C项正确。
点睛：推理判断题的解题技巧
一．推理判断题常见的提问方式

D
Swimming in the water of Hawaii’s Big Island is a fun experience. But it can be more exciting if there are dolphins swimming around and jumping out of the sea too. For many people, it would be a wonderful dream to swim with these lovely animals! However, this may not be good for dolphins. They may get hurt because of human interaction (互动).
Dolphins are active and usually look for food at night. In the day, they like to rest in shallow bays (浅湾). Many people think the dolphins are awake during the day as they swim. But when they sleep they rest half of their brain and keep the other half awake to breathe, so they may be sleeping even when they’re swimming in the water.
From 2010 to 2013, spinner dolphins (飞旋海豚) of Hawaii’s Big Island were exposed to human activities more than 82 percent of the time, according to Julian Tyne, a researcher at Australia’s Murdoch University.
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) says disturbing the animals in their near-shore habitat could force them to swim to less favourable places, putting them at risk of being attacked by sharks and other animals.
Besides, when people are around, dolphins become more active. Thus, they can’t get enough sleep. “Disturbing their resting behaviours can actually affect their long-term health and the health of the dolphin population,” Ann Garrett of NOAA’s National Marine Fisheries Service told the Associated Press.
As a result, the NOAA wants to make rules to help protect the dolphins. For example, the agency (机构) may ban swimming with the Hawaii spinner dolphins. Or they may stop people from swimming in shallow bays when the dolphins are resting. Tour operators must also be taught to watch for signs to know when the dolphins are in their resting state.
12. Which of the following about dolphins is NOT true
A. They spend most of their time sleeping at night.
B. They like to stay in shallow bays during the day.
C. They keep half of their brain awake while sleeping.
D. They may be sleeping even when they’re swimming.
13. What would they do when dolphins are disturbed in their near-shore habitat
A. Swim to a crowded place.
B. Move closer to sharks.
C. Become less active.
D. Likely sleep longer.
14. Which activity is against the rules
A. Swimming with the Hawaii spinner dolphins.
B. Swimming in bays where the dolphins live.
C. Making signs that show the dolphins’ resting state.
D. Making signs that show where the dolphins are.
15. What does the article mainly talk about
A. What habits dolphins have.
B. What spinner dolphins are.
C. How the animals live in the sea.
D. How to protect dolphins near the shore.
【答案】12. A 13. B 14. A 15. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了海豚的生活习性以及其与人类的相处方式，建议人们保护海豚。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“Dolphins are active and usually look for food at night. (海豚很活跃，通常在晚上寻找食物。)”可知，海豚晚上通常在寻找食物，A项“它们晚上大部分时间都在睡觉”与文章内容不符。故选A项。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) says disturbing the animals in their near-shore habitat could force them to swim to less favourable places, putting them at risk of being attacked by sharks and other animals. (美国国家海洋和大气管理局NOAA表示，在它们的近岸栖息地骚扰这些动物可能会迫使它们游到不太有利的地方，使它们面临被鲨鱼和其他动物袭击的风险。)”可知，当海豚在近岸栖息地被打扰的时候，它们可能会游到靠近鲨鱼的地方。故选B项。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中“For example, the agency (机构) may ban swimming with the Hawaii spinner dolphins. (例如，该机构可能会禁止与夏威夷飞旋海豚一起游泳。)”可知，与夏威夷飞旋海豚一起游泳是违反规定的。故选A项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文可知，文章围绕海豚展开，前面部分主要介绍了海豚在近岸栖息地的生活习性，并以此引出后面部分的内容，号召人们保护海豚，并说明了如何保护的问题。因此，D项“如何保护海岸附近的海豚”符合文章大意。故选D项。

【分析】这是一篇说明文。本文对绿色进行了新的含义的定义，绿色是地球不可或缺的一种颜色，倡导绿色生活，并且介绍了四种绿色生活的方法。
【16题详解】
根据上文“what does it mean to be green “green” is more than just a color. ”说绿色意味着什么 绿色不仅仅是一种颜色。这里关键词为 “不仅仅”，下文应该对“green”另一层含义的解释。A项：它还意味着采取特殊措施来保护环境。 “also mean”正好另一层意义的引出。故选A。
【17题详解】
本空是小标题“reduce it”减少使用的内容。再根据下文“ For instance, a shorter shower means you used less water and less fuel since your house uses to run the heater that warmed up the water.”例如，更短的淋浴时间意味着你使用更少的水和更少的燃料，因为你的房子使用加热水的加热器。根据小标题和下文可知，这里应说少用东西的益处是什么。G项“当你使用更少的东西，你做了一件对地球有益的事情”符合文意。故选G。

本空是小标题“reuse it ”再利用的内容。根据下文“For instance, if your baby brother becomes older and loses interest in his plastic basketball hoop (篮圈), why not give it to another family who has a little kid ”例如,如果你的弟弟长大了。对他的塑料篮球圈失去兴趣,为什么把它给它另一个有小孩的家庭呢？”B项“很多时候，即使你不再需要某样东西，别人也可能会需要”下文的内容正好是B项内容的说明举例。 故选B。

根据上文“But before you travel the globe, take a look at your own backyard. Is there a spot where you could plant a tree or put in a little fruit or vegetable garden ”但在你环游世界之前，先看看你自己的后院。有没有地方可以种一棵树或创建一个小水果园或蔬菜园。F项“你可以骄傲地看着你的树生根，看着你花园里的植物生长。”承接上文。your garden 呼应上文a little fruit or vegetable garden。故选F。

【解析】
【分析】本文为记叙文。文章主要介绍了黛西乘坐飞毯去了解野生动物保护的故事。
【41题详解】
考查形容词。句意：她总是盼望着帮助濒临灭绝野生动物物种。此处修饰species这个名词，所以用形容词，故填endangered。
【42题详解】
考查时态。分析句子可知此处填谓语，根据found可知此处用过去时，所以填woke。
【43题详解】
考查名词复数。句意：飞毯带着黛西去了很多地方。many修饰名词复数，所以填places。
【44题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：飞毯带她去了有野生动物保护的地方。分析句子可知there was some wildlife protection作定语，修饰place，从句缺地点状语，所以应该用关系副词where。
【45题详解】
考查冠词。句意：她遇到一头大象。elephant是以元音开头，表示一个，所以用an。
【46题详解】
考查介词。句意：她得知大象过去被无情地猎杀。表示“无情”可知用介词without。
【47题详解】
考查名词。句意：黛西突然笑起来。burst into 后加名词，所以填laughter。
【48题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：黛西看到一只猴子在擦自己的身体。分析句子可知本句有谓语met，所以rub要用非谓语，monkey与rub是主动关系，所以用rubbing。
【49题详解】
考查比较级。句意：猴子要求黛西以后更多地关注雨林。分析句子可知是和过去相比，要用比较级，所以填more。
【50题详解】
考查副词。句意：最后，黛西完全明白了没有雨林，就没有动物，就没有药物的真正意义。此处修饰understood，所以用副词fully。
第四部分 写作(共两节，满分35分)
第一节(共10小题;每小题1分，满分10分)
51. 阅读下面的短文，文中有10处错误，请找出并改正。
Last weekend we go mountain climbing. Even the heavy rain in the morning could not prevent us going. Set off very early，we went along an extreme narrow road，all in high spirits. On every side of the road was green fields and some farm houses. We could hear the sound of the rain and our footsteps mixing with our laughter. At noon we reached the top of the mountain. That surprised us most there was the beauty of scenes. After having short rest there and sharing with the food we had brought，we started going down. It rained even harder. We were wet to the skin，and we still sang and laughed happily.
【答案】1.go→went
2.set→setting
3.extreme→extremely
4.every→either/each
5.was→were
6.mixing→mixed
7.that→what
8.having后加a
9.去掉with
10.and变为but
【解析】
【详解】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了上周末作者和朋友去爬山的经历。
第一处：考查时态。句意：上周末我们去爬山了。该句时间状语为last weekend，是表示过去的时间，故谓语动词要用一般过去时态。 故将go改为went。
第二处：考查非谓语动词。句意：我们很早就出发了，沿着一条极窄的路走着，大家都兴高采烈。set off为非谓语作状语，主句主语we和set off之间是主动关系，故要用现在分词作状语。 故将set改为setting。
第三处：考查副词。句意见上题解析。修饰形容词narrow，用副词。故将extreme改为extremely。
第四处：考查形容词。句意：路的两边都是绿色的田野和一些农舍。一条道路有两侧，两者中的任何一个要用either或each。 故将every改为either或者each。
第五处：考查主谓一致和时态。句意见上题解析。该句是一个倒装句。主语为green fields and some farm houses，且结合上下文可知，该句描述的是过去的情况，故谓语动词应用were。 故将was改为were。
第六处：考查非谓语动词。句意：我们能听到雨声和我们的脚步声夹杂着笑声。mixed with our laughter是过去分词作定语，修饰the rain and our footsteps，the rain and our footsteps和mix是被动关系，故要用过去分词作定语。故将mixing改为mixed。
第七处：考查主语从句。句意：最使我们惊讶的是那里的景色之美。 设空处引导主语从句且在句中作指物的主语，应用what。故将that改为what。
第八处：考查冠词。句意：在那里休息了一会儿，吃了带着的食物后，我们开始下山。have a rest休息一会。故在having后加a。
第九处：考查动词用法。 句意见上题解析。share sth. with sb. /share with sb. sth.意为 “和某人分享某物”，故with多余，应去掉。 故去掉with。
第十处：考查连词。句意：我们全身都淋湿了，但我们又唱又笑，很高兴。上下文之间是转折关系，故要将and改为but。故将and改为but。

Cao Zhawa has been planting trees for most of his life. He lives and works in the heart of Mu Us Sandyland, an area in the southwest part of Inner Mongolia.
In 1958, when he was just 16 years old, Cao started planting trees. Cao’s trees now cover an area of more than 1.3 million square meters. Cao’s forest is worth an estimated 10 million yuan and can produce 100,000 kilograms oxygen, enough to sustain a full-grown adult for nearly a year.
Mu Us Sandyland is one of the places in China most affected by erosion(侵蚀) and desertification. The amount of annual rainfall ranges from 150 to 300 millimeters, while evaporation(蒸发) between 2,000 and 3,000 millimeters. Cao recalls that his growing-up was troubled by sandstorms. This was one of the factors that motivated Cao to join and stay on the tree-planting program.
Popularly known as the “Green Great Wall”, the project, which is set for completion in 2050, would be a 4, 800-kilometer greenbelt of trees and shrubs(灌木) protecting the area from strong winds and preventing soil erosion. Since the start of the Three-North Shelter Forest Program, millions of people have joined in and become a vital part of the plan.
However, the tree-planters face a host of challenges, with watering the most difficult among them. “When I was young, the level of groundwater was high,” said Cao, “But with less rain, the trees are hard to plant and keep alive.”
Planting trees has also become harder for Cao as he ages. However, he doesn’t want to leave the forest in the care of his children, and he insists the land belongs to the government. “When I die, I just want to be buried under the trees,” Cao said. “Then I will be with them forever.”
4. By listing the figures in Paragraph 2, the author wants to ________.
A. show Cao has had a hard life B. praise Cao for his contribution
C. tell us how much oxygen an adult needs D. make it clear that Cao has made a fortune
5. Why did Cao make up his mind to plant trees
A. Evaporation in his hometown was serious. B. He had no other ways to earn a living.
C. He found it a pleasure to plant trees. D. Sandstorms kept striking his hometown.
6. What does Cao Zhawa most care about
A. His health. B. His wealth.
C. Forest ownership(所有权) D. Children’s future.
7. What’s the best title for the passage
A. An Elder in the Desert B. A Life Devoted to Planting Trees
C. Mu Us Sandyland Requires Forest D. Cao Zhawa—a Peasant with a Great Dream
C
I was desperately nervous about becoming car-free. But eight months ago our car was hit by a passing vehicle and it was destroyed. No problem, I thought: we’ll buy another. But the insurance payout didn’t even begin to cover the costs of buying a new car－I worked out that, with the loan, we’d need plus petrol, insurance, parking permits and tax, we would make a payment as much as 600 a month.
And that’s when I had my fancy idea. Why not just give up having a car at all I live in London. We have a railway station behind our house, a tube station 10 minutes’ walk away, and a bus stop at the end of the street. A new car club had just opened in our area, and one of its shiny little red Peugeots was parked nearby. If any family in Britain could live without a car, I reasoned, then surely we were that family.
But my new car-free idea, sadly, wasn’t shared by my family. My teenage daughters were horrified. What would their friends think about our family being “too poor to afford a car” (I wasn’t that bothered what they thought, and I suggested the girls should take the same approach.)
My friends, too, were astonished at our plan. What would happen if someone got seriously ill overnight and needed to go to hospital (an ambulance) How would the children get to and from their many events (buses and trains) People smiled as though this was another of my mad ideas, before saying they were sure I’d soon realize that a car was a necessity.
Eight months on I wonder whether we’ll ever own a car again. The idea that you “have to” own a car, especially if you live in a city, is all in the mind. I live—and many other citizens do too—in a place that has never been better served by public transport, and yet car ownership has never been higher. We worry about rising car costs, but we’d be better off asking something much more basic: do I really need a car Certainly the answer is no, and I’m a lot richer because I dared to ask the question.
8. The author decided to live a car-free life partly because ______.
A. most families chose to go car-free
B. he was hurt in a terrible car accident
C. the cost of a new car was too much
D. the traffic jam was unbearable for him
9. What is the attitude of the author’s family toward his plan
A. Supportive. B. Disapproving.
C. Optimistic. D. Unconcerned.
10. What did the author suggest his daughters do about their friends’ opinion
A. Argue against it. B. Take their advice.
C. Think it over. D. Leave it alone.
11. What conclusion did the author draw after the eight-month car-free life
A. Life cannot go without a car.
B. Life without a car is a little bit hard.
C. His life gets improved without a car.
D. A car-free life does not suit everyone.
D
Swimming in the water of Hawaii’s Big Island is a fun experience. But it can be more exciting if there are dolphins swimming around and jumping out of the sea too. For many people, it would be a wonderful dream to swim with these lovely animals! However, this may not be good for dolphins. They may get hurt because of human interaction (互动).
Dolphins are active and usually look for food at night. In the day, they like to rest in shallow bays (浅湾). Many people think the dolphins are awake during the day as they swim. But when they sleep they rest half of their brain and keep the other half awake to breathe, so they may be sleeping even when they’re swimming in the water.
From 2010 to 2013, spinner dolphins (飞旋海豚) of Hawaii’s Big Island were exposed to human activities more than 82 percent of the time, according to Julian Tyne, a researcher at Australia’s Murdoch University.
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) says disturbing the animals in their near-shore habitat could force them to swim to less favourable places, putting them at risk of being attacked by sharks and other animals.
Besides, when people are around, dolphins become more active. Thus, they can’t get enough sleep. “Disturbing their resting behaviours can actually affect their long-term health and the health of the dolphin population,” Ann Garrett of NOAA’s National Marine Fisheries Service told the Associated Press.
As a result, the NOAA wants to make rules to help protect the dolphins. For example, the agency (机构) may ban swimming with the Hawaii spinner dolphins. Or they may stop people from swimming in shallow bays when the dolphins are resting. Tour operators must also be taught to watch for signs to know when the dolphins are in their resting state.
12. Which of the following about dolphins is NOT true
A. They spend most of their time sleeping at night.
B. They like to stay in shallow bays during the day.
C. They keep half of their brain awake while sleeping.
D. They may be sleeping even when they’re swimming.
13. What would they do when dolphins are disturbed in their near-shore habitat
A. Swim to a crowded place.
B. Move closer to sharks.
C. Become less active.
D. Likely sleep longer.
14. Which activity is against the rules
A. Swimming with the Hawaii spinner dolphins.
B. Swimming in bays where the dolphins live.
C Making signs that show the dolphins’ resting state.
D. Making signs that show where the dolphins are.
15. What does the article mainly talk about
A. What habits dolphins have.
B. What spinner dolphins are.
C. How the animals live in the sea.
D. How to protect dolphins near the shore.

Last weekend we go mountain climbing. Even the heavy rain in the morning could not prevent us going. Set off very early，we went along an extreme narrow road，all in high spirits. On every side of the road was green fields and some farm houses. We could hear the sound of the rain and our footsteps mixing with our laughter. At noon we reached the top of the mountain. That surprised us most there was the beauty of scenes. After having short rest there and sharing with the food we had brought，we started going down. It rained even harder. We were wet to the skin，and we still sang and laughed happily.
