2．When I was growing up，I had an old neighbour named Doctor Gibbs.He didn't look like any other doctor I'd ever known.He never yelled at us for playing in his yard，but was always very kind.
When Doctor Gibbs wasn't saving lives，he was planting trees.He had some interesting theories about planting trees.He believed in the principle："No pain，no gain".He hardly watered his new trees，which flew in the face of conventional wisdom.Once I asked why and he told me that watering plants spoiled them because it made them grow weaker.He said you had to make things tough 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，he'd beat them with a rolled-up newspaper.I asked him why he did that，and he said it was to get the tree's attention.
Doctor Gibbs died a couple of years after I left home.Every now and then，I walked by his house and looked at the trees that I'd watched him plant some twenty five years ago.They were all tall and strong.
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（逆境）seemed to benefit Doctor Gibbs' 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 meet with hardship.There's always a cold wind blowing somewhere.What we need to do is pray for deep roots，so when the rain falls and the winds blow，we won't be torn apart.
（1）With the trees planted，Doctor Gibbs often.
A．kept watering them every morning
B．beat them to make them grow deep roots
C．talked to them to get their attention
D．paid little attention to them
（2）Which prayer does the author wish for his sons？
A．Have an easy life，without too much to worry about.
B．Be able to stand the rain and winds in their lives.
C．Have good luck，encountering less hardship in their life.
D．Meet people like Dr Gibbs in the future.
（3）Which of the following can be the best title of the passage？
A．A Nice Doctor
B．Adversity and Suffering
C．The Deep Roots
D．My Childhood Memory组卷：0引用：2难度：0.5 -
3．Mandara seemed to know something big was about to happen.So she let out a yell，caught hold of her 2-year-old daughter Kibibi and climbed up into a tree.She lives at the National Zoo in Washington D．C．.
And on Tuesday，August 23rd，witnesses said she seemed to sense the big earthquake that shook much of the East Coast before any humans knew what was going on.And she's not the only one.In the moments before the quake，an orangutan（猩猩）let out a loud call and then climbed to the top of her shelter.
"It's very different from their normal call，" said Brandie Smith，the zookeeper. "The lemurs（monkey like animals of Madagascar）will sound an alarm if they see or hear something highly unusual."
But you can't see or hear an earthquake 15 minutes before it happens，can you？Maybe you can——if you're an animal.
"Animals can hear above and below our range of hearing，" said Brandie Smith. "That's part of their special abilities.They're more sensitive to the environment，which is how they survive."
Primates weren't the only animals that seemed to sense the quake before it happened.One of the elephants made a warning sound and a huge lizard（蜥蜴）ran quickly for cover.The flamingoes（a kind of birds）gathered before the quake and stayed together until the shaking stopped.
So what kind of vibrations（震动）were the animals picking up in the moments before the quake？Scientist Susan Hough said earthquakes produce two types of waves——a weak "P" wave and then a much stronger "S" wave.The "P" stands for "primary".And the "S" stands for "secondary".She thinks the "P" wave might be what sets the animals off.
Not all the animals behaved unusually before the quake.For example，Smith said the zoo's giant pandas didn't jump up until the shaking actually began.But many of the other animals seemed to know something was coming before it happened. "I'm not surprised at all，" Smith said.
（1）Why did Mandara act strangely one day？
A．Because its daughter Kibibi was injured.
B．Because an earthquake had happened.
C．Because it heard an orangutan let out a loud call.
D．Because it sensed something unusual would happen.
（2）According to Brandie Smith，.
A．many animals hearing is sharp
B．earthquakes produce two types of waves
C．primates usually gather together before a quake
D．humans can also develop the ability to sense a quake
（3）Which animal seems unable to sense quake？
A．A lizard.
B．A flamingo.
C．A lemur.
D．A giant panda.
（4）What is the best title for the passage？
A．How animals survive a quake
B．How animals differ from humans
C．How animals behave before a quake
D．How animals protect their young in a quake组卷：1引用：2难度：0.5
