　　【语篇解读】　本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。邻居的前院有一棵美丽的树，然而它在一次暴风雪中被雪压断了，“我”为之感到难过，但是邻居却留下了树桩用来喂鸟。这说明生活中既有美好的事情也有悲剧，如何处理它们要看我们自己的态度。

　　5．解析：考查推理判断。根据第一段的第一句“One of my neighbors used to have a beautiful tree in her front yard”可知，这是一棵很美的树；根据该段的第三句“Soon it blessed her with cooling shade in the summer and glorious, golden leaves in the fall”可知，这棵树在夏天能给邻居带来避暑的树阴，在秋天能让邻居欣赏到壮丽的金色树叶。这些是这棵美丽的树给邻居带来的好处。故选B。

　　答案：B

　　6．解析：考查细节理解。根据第三段的第七句“When I drove by her home today I saw a tiny bird feeder sitting on that stump and a colorful songbird having its dinner”可知，当“我”开车经过她家时，“我”看见树桩上放着一个鸟食罐，一只羽毛鲜艳的鸣禽正在吃食。由此可知，邻居留下树桩是为了给鸟提供一个吃食物的地方。故选C。
