When I was growing up, I had an old neighbor named Dr. Gibbs. He didn’t look like any doctor I’d   36  known. When Dr. Gibbs wasn’t   37  lives, he was planting trees.

The good doctor had some   38  theories on planting trees. He believed in “No pains, no gains”. He never   39  his new trees, which was   40  many people. Once I asked why. He   41  that watering plants spoiled them, and that if you water them, each following tree generation will   42  weaker and weaker. So you have to make things   43  for them. He talked about how watering trees   44  shallow roots, and how trees that weren’t watered had to grow deep roots in   45  of water. I came to understand that he meant deep roots were to be   46 . I planted a couple of trees a few years back and I took good care of them. Two years of   47  has resulted in trees that expect to be waited on hand and foot. Whenever a cold wind blows, they   48  and tremble their branches. Funny things about those trees of Dr. Gibbs’. The lack of water seemed to   49  them in ways comfort and ease never could.

I used to   50  for my sons that their lives will be easy. But   51  I’ve been thinking that it’s time to   52  my prayer. I know my children are going to meet   53 , 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,   54  when the winds blow, we won’t be   55  away.

【答案】

36-40BDCAB   41-45 BACAD   46-50 ADBCA   51-55 DCABD

【解析】文章介紹了一位醫(yī)生種樹的新理論。

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)識的任何一個(gè)醫(yī)生。

2.動詞辨析。由上文Dr. Gibbs和He didn't look like any doctor可知他是個(gè)醫(yī)生,是來救人性命的。

3.形容詞辨析。由下文可知他對于種樹有一些有趣的理論。

4.上下文串聯(lián)。由下文所介紹的他的種樹的理論可知他從不給樹澆水。

5.介詞辨析。beyond 介詞,超過。由下文可知他的做法超過了其他人。

6.動詞辨析。由下文He answered可知作者問他為什么。

7.動詞辨析。根據(jù)句意:由上文的watering plants spoiled them和下文shallow roots可知,他認(rèn)為給樹澆水會使樹木的根扎的很淺,所以會變得越來越弱。

8.上下文串聯(lián)。根據(jù)句意:由上文可知他認(rèn)為應(yīng)該使樹的生長環(huán)境艱苦些,從而刺激樹木生長的更好。

9.短語辨析。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可知給樹澆水會導(dǎo)致根系很淺。

10.短語辨析。in search of 尋找。由句意可知樹木的根系向下生長來尋找水。

11.動詞辨析。treasure 重視。對于樹木來說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于樹木的精心照顧導(dǎo)致樹木想要得到盡心盡意的問候。

13.由上文可知,作者種植的樹木比較虛弱,所以當(dāng)刮風(fēng)時(shí),樹木顫抖。

14.由作者的例子可知缺少水會使根系比較發(fā)達(dá),從而對樹木有好處。

15.根據(jù)上下文可知,作者過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.動詞辨析。解析同上。

18.由上文的種樹的理論可知,作者知道惡劣的環(huán)境會有利于孩子的成長。

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,我們才不會被風(fēng)吹走。

A Strange Greeting, a True Feeling Last week I was invited to a doctor’s meeting at the Ruth hospital for incurables.

Albert Einstein said, “In the middle of every difficulty lies opportunity.” Once __41 __, such opportunities are like valuable diamonds hidden in the sand.
Several years ago, I spoke at a school about how we were surrounded by “___42___  ” if we could only recognize them. A man stopped by to see me, and I remembered him as somebody who had suffered through a(n) ___43___ divorce (離婚) and was examining what was most important to him. He took a small ___44___ out of his pocket. Here is what he said to me that day.
“I ___45___ on this stone when I was leaving church last Sunday. You had spoken about  ___46___ opportunities—diamonds. I put the stone in my ___47___ to remind me to look for those “diamonds” that I need. I have been trying to sell my business . On Monday morning, a man who seemed interested in ___48___ some of my stock (股票) stopped by. I thought, ‘Here’s my diamond—don’t let it ___49___!’ I sold the entire stock to him by noon. Now my next diamond is to find a new ___50___  !”
Not long afterward, he did find a new and better job. From then on, he decided to keep his stone with him all the time as a ___51___ to look for “diamonds” as he dug through the ___52___ of life.
Richard DeVos is right when he points out. “This is an exciting world. It is filled with opportunities. Great moments wait around every corner.” Those moments are diamonds that,   ___53___ left unrecognized, will be forever lost.
Are you looking for “diamonds” every day? If not, you may ___54___ pass them by! Perhaps there is a diamond of opportunity hidden in the difficulty you’re ___55___ now.

We often talk about ourselves as if we have permanent genetic defects (缺陷) that can never be changed. “I’m impatient.” “I’m always behind.” “I always put things   31 !” You’ve surely heard them. Maybe you’ve used them to describe   32 .
These comments may come from stories about us that have been   33  for years—often from   34  childhood. These stories may have no   35  in fact. But they can set low expectations for us. As a child, my mother said to me, “Marshall, you have no mechanical skills, and you will never have any mechanical skills for the rest of your life.” How did these expectations  36  my development? I was never   37  to work on cars or be around   38 . When I was 18, I took the US Army’s Mechanical Aptitude Test. My scores were in the bottom for the entire nation!
Six years later,   39 , I was at California University, working on my doctor’s degree. One of my professors, Dr. Bob Tannbaum, asked me to write down things I did well and things I couldn’t do. On the positive side, I   40  down, “research, writing, analysis, and speaking.” On the   41  side, I wrote, “I have no mechanical skills.”
Bob asked me how I knew I had no mechanical skills. I explained my life   42  and told him about my   43  performance on the Army test. Bob then asked, “  44  is it that you can solve   45  mathematical problems, but you can’t solve simple mechanical problems?”
Suddenly I realized that I didn’t  46  from some sort of genetic defect. I was just living out expectations that I had chosen to  47 . At that point, it wasn’t just my family and friends who had been  48  my belief that I was mechanically hopeless. And it wasn’t just the Army test, either. I was the one who kept telling myself, “You can’t do this!” I realized that as long as I kept saying that, it was going to remain true.   49  , if we don’t treat ourselves as if we have incurable genetic defects, we can do well in almost   50  we choose.
