Question

When I was growing up, I had an old neighbor named Dr. Gibbs. He didn’t look like any doctor I’d1known. When Dr. Gibbs wasn’t2lives, he was planting trees.
The good doctor had some3theories on planting trees. He believed in “No pains, no gains”. He never4his new trees, which was5many people. Once I asked why. He6that watering plants spoiled them, and that if you water them, each following tree generation will7weaker and weaker. So you have to make things8for them. He talked about how watering trees9shallow roots, and how trees that weren’t watered had to grow deep roots in10of water. I came to understand that he meant deep roots were to be11. I planted a couple of trees a few years back and I took good care of them. Two years of12has resulted in trees that expect to be waited on hand and foot. Whenever a cold wind blows, they13and tremble their branches. Funny things about those trees of Dr. Gibbs’. The lack of water seemed to14them in ways comfort and ease never could.
I used to15for my sons that their lives will be easy. But16I’ve been thinking that it’s time to17my prayer. I know my children are going to meet18, and I’m praying they will be strong. The prayer for comfort is seldom met. What we need to do is to pray for deep roots,19when the winds blow, we won’t be20away.

文章介紹了一位醫(yī)生種樹(shù)的新理論。
1.副詞辨析。A甚至；B曾經(jīng)；C從未；D幾乎不；根據(jù)句意：他不像我曾經(jīng)認(rèn)識(shí)的任何一個(gè)醫(yī)生。
2.動(dòng)詞辨析。由上文Dr. Gibbs和He didn't look like any doctor可知他是個(gè)醫(yī)生，是來(lái)救人性命的。
3.形容詞辨析。由下文可知他對(duì)于種樹(shù)有一些有趣的理論。
4.上下文串聯(lián)。由下文所介紹的他的種樹(shù)的理論可知他從不給樹(shù)澆水。
5.介詞辨析。beyond 介詞，超過(guò)。由下文可知他的做法超過(guò)了其他人。
6.動(dòng)詞辨析。由下文He answered可知作者問(wèn)他為什么。
7.動(dòng)詞辨析。根據(jù)句意：由上文的watering plants spoiled them和下文shallow roots可知，他認(rèn)為給樹(shù)澆水會(huì)使樹(shù)木的根扎的很淺，所以會(huì)變得越來(lái)越弱。
8.上下文串聯(lián)。根據(jù)句意：由上文可知他認(rèn)為應(yīng)該使樹(shù)的生長(zhǎng)環(huán)境艱苦些，從而刺激樹(shù)木生長(zhǎng)的更好。
9.短語(yǔ)辨析。make for 導(dǎo)致。根據(jù)上文他的理論和下文how trees that weren't watered had to grow deep roots可知給樹(shù)澆水會(huì)導(dǎo)致根系很淺。
10.短語(yǔ)辨析。in search of 尋找。由句意可知樹(shù)木的根系向下生長(zhǎng)來(lái)尋找水。
11.動(dòng)詞辨析。treasure 重視。對(duì)于樹(shù)木來(lái)說(shuō)深深的根系是非常重要的。
12.名詞辨析。根據(jù)上文的理論可知作者對(duì)于樹(shù)木的精心照顧導(dǎo)致樹(shù)木想要得到盡心盡意的問(wèn)候。
13.由上文可知，作者種植的樹(shù)木比較虛弱，所以當(dāng)刮風(fēng)時(shí)，樹(shù)木顫抖。
14.由作者的例子可知缺少水會(huì)使根系比較發(fā)達(dá)，從而對(duì)樹(shù)木有好處。
15.根據(jù)上下文可知，作者過(guò)去祈禱兒子們的生活能輕松些
16.副詞辨析。根據(jù)上下文可知，最近作者祈禱的內(nèi)容發(fā)生了改變。
17.動(dòng)詞辨析。解析同上。
18.由上文的種樹(shù)的理論可知，作者知道惡劣的環(huán)境會(huì)有利于孩子的成長(zhǎng)。
19.上下文串聯(lián)。根據(jù)上下文串聯(lián)
20.由pray for deep roots可知作者認(rèn)為只有將根扎的很深，我們才不會(huì)被風(fēng)吹走。
