“Now pull up the second.” The youth obeyed found that the task was (difficult)．
“Do the same the third，”he urged.The boy had to use all his strength to uproot it. “Now，”said the instructor，“try your hand with the fourth.”The pupil put his arms around thetrunk of the tall tree and couldn't even shake leaves.“This，my son，isjust happens with our bad habits. When they are young, we can remove them easily; but when they are old，it'shard to pull them out of the ground, we pray and struggle ever so sincerely！”

Answer 1

【答案】stopped；a；companion；using；and；more difficult；with；its；what；though
【解析】①stopped　考查動詞的時態(tài)。分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知，所填詞和后面的pointedto是并列關(guān)系，所以應(yīng)該用一般過去時。②a　考查冠詞的用法。分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知，這里和前面的asmall short tree一致，所以用不定冠詞表泛指。
③companion　考査詞形轉(zhuǎn)換。分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知，所填詞被形容詞性物主代詞和形容詞修飾，所以用名詞形式，表示“同伴”。
④using　考查非謂語動詞的用法。分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知，這里用現(xiàn)在分詞短語作伴隨狀語。
⑤and　考查連詞的用法。分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知，所填詞應(yīng)表示并列關(guān)系。
⑥more difficult　考查形容詞的用法。根據(jù)語境可知，此處表示兩者相比這個任務(wù)更難。
⑦with　考查介詞的用法。根據(jù)語境可知，這里表示對第三棵樹同樣處理，即拔出第三棵樹，所以用動詞短語dowith，意為“處理”。
⑧its　考查物主代詞的用法。根據(jù)上下文的內(nèi)容可知，這里是指第四棵樹的樹葉，所以用its。
⑨what　考查連接代詞的用法。分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知，這是一個表語從句，從句中缺少主語，而且用來指物，所以用what引導(dǎo)。
⑩though　考查連詞的用法。根據(jù)上下文的語境可知，這里表達(dá)的意思是：盡管我們真心實意地祈禱、努力掙扎，但是已經(jīng)積習(xí)難改了。所以這是一個讓步狀語從句，應(yīng)用though引導(dǎo)。
