解:延长$CE$交$DA$的延长线于点$G。$
$\because AD// BC,$
$\therefore ∠ G=∠ ECB。$
$\because E$是$AB$的中点,
$\therefore AE=BE。$
在$△ AEG$和$△ BEC$中,
$\begin{cases}∠ G=∠ ECB \\∠ AEG=∠ BEC \\AE=BE\end{cases}$
$\therefore △ AEG≌△ BEC(\mathrm{AAS}),$
$\therefore AG=BC,$$EG=EC。$
$\because CE⊥ DE,$即$DE⊥ CG,$
$\therefore CD=GD。$
$\because GD=AD+AG=AD+BC,$
$\therefore CD=AD+BC。$
