When Doctor Gibbs wasn39。t saving lives, he was planting trees. He had some interesting ideas about planting trees. He hardly watered his new trees. Once I asked why and he told me that watering plants made them grow weaker. He said he had to make things difficult for the trees so that only the strongest could survive. He talked about how watering trees made them develop shallow roots and how, if they were not watered, trees would grow deep roots in search of water. So, instead of watering his trees every morning, he39。d beat them with a rolled up newspaper. I asked him why he did that, and he said it was to get the trees39。 attention. Doctor Gibbs died a couple of years after I left home. Sometimes I walked by his house and looked at the trees I39。d watched him plant 25 years ago. They were tall and strong. I planted several trees myself a few years ago. Two years of caring for these trees meant they grew up weakly. Every time a cold wind blew, my trees shook. Adversity seemed to be good for Doctor Gibb39。s trees, they could never relax. Every night before I go to bed, I check on my two sons. I often pray（祈禱）that their lives will be easy. But lately I39。ve been thinking that it39。s time to change my prayer. I know my children are going to experience difficulties. There39。s always a cold wind blowing somewhere. What we need to do is to pray for deep roots, so when the rains fall and the winds blow, we won39。t be separated.（1）What did Doctor Gibbs do to the trees he planted? A.He let them grow quickly.B.He beat them to get their attention.C.He helped them search for water.D.He read a newspaper near them.（2）What does the word Adversity in Paragraph 5 mean? A.Difficult living conditions.B.Little water.C.Enough care or attention.D.Bad weather.（3）What does the writer learn from Doctor Gibbs? A.Elders are treasures.B.No pain, no gain.C.Two heads are better than one.D.Only those who bear（ 容忍） the most bee the highest.【答案】 （1）B（2）A（3）A 【解析】【分析】文章大意：醫(yī)生業(yè)余喜歡種樹，他種樹和別人不一樣，很少澆水，后來這個(gè)醫(yī)生的樹長得很結(jié)實(shí)，由此引發(fā)作者對(duì)人生的思考，發(fā)現(xiàn)困難會(huì)讓人更加成熟。 （1）細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)文章提到的 he39。d beat them with a rolled up newspaper.

When a new student arrived in my third grade class, I thought it would just be a mon student, but this student was different. His name was Derek and he had autism. He sometimes had random outbursts（隨意發(fā)作） during class and we would stand there, doing nothing because we didn39。t know why he was doing that. When he sat down at desk, we would
