I planted a couple of trees myself a few years ago. Two years of attending these trees meant they grew up weak. Whenever a cold wind blew, their branches trembled. Adversity seemed to benefit Doctor Gibb's trees in ways comfort and ease never could.

　　Every night before I go to bed, I check on my two sons. I often pray that their lives will be easy. But lately I've been thinking that it's time to change my prayer. I know my children are going to encounter hardship. There'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 won't be torn apart.

　　31. With the trees planted, Doctor Gibbs often______.

　　A. paid little attention to them

　　B. talked to them to get their attention

　　C. kept watering them every morning

　　D. beat them to make them grow deep roots

　　【答案】

　　【解析】He hardly watered his new trees,他没有给树浇过水，也就是他没有关注过它们。故选A。

　　32. What does the author think of the way Doctor Gibbs planted trees?

　　A. Original and reasonable.

　　B. Strange and harmful.

　　C. Interesting and funny.

　　D. Cruel and unacceptable.

　　【答案】【解析】I walked by his house and looked at the trees that I'd watched him plant some 25 years ago. They were tall and strong.因为Doctor Gibbs种的树长的又高又粗壮，所以可推测作者认为他的做法是新颖和合理的，故选A。
