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?

Someone even says that friends are made to be used. It makes me very sad. True friendship doesn39。t mean that when you need your friend39。s help, you will treat him to dinner, and when you have to protect yourself, you will put your friends in a difficult situation. In fact, true friendship is the munication and understanding of the hearts. True friendship is like water. Compared with decent wine, water is tasteless, but is of great help when we are thirsty. True friends don39。t need to be with each other every day, but are connected in heart every minute. True friendship is like medicine. Though it is bitter, it cures your illness. True friends give you some suggestions even if they know you would not take. They criticize you when others have a good word for you, not because of envy but worrying that you may lose your cool head. True friendship has nothing to do with fame, power or money. True friends would often watch you silently far away when you are influential, but e to you whenever you need their help. You39。re not his steppingstone to success, but are his crutch(依靠) to live through difficulties. True friends make you plete. Many persons go along with you through your life—your parents, your spouse(配偶), and your children, who take care of you and make your life happy. However, you still need someone who understands your thoughts and souls. Without them, you are likely to be unhealthy in spirit. True friends stay in your heart, rather than at your side。 they know you more than yourself, and try to better you.(1)What makes the writer sad? A.Someone doesn39。t unders
