     When I was growing up, I had an old neighbor, Dr. Gibbs. He didn't look like any doctor I'd ever known.
He never invited us to play in his yard, but he was a very kind person.
     When Dr. Gibbs wasn't saving lives, he was planting trees. He owned a large field and wanted to make it
a forest.
     The good doctor had some interesting ideas about planting trees. He never watered his new trees. Once I
asked why. He said that watering plants spoiled them, and that if you watered them, each baby tree would
grow weaker and weaker, so you had to make things difficult for them and pick out the weaker trees early
on.
     He talked about how watering trees made for shallow (浅的) roots, and how trees that weren't watered
had to grow deep roots in search of water under the earth by themselves. Deep roots were very important.
     So he never watered his trees. He'd planted an oak and, instead of watering it every morning, he'd beat it
with a rolled-up newspaper. I asked him why he did that, and he said it was to get the tree's attention.
     Dr. Gibbs died several years after I left home. Every now and then, I walked by his house and looked at
the trees that I watched him plant about twenty-five years ago. They're very big and strong now. I planted
some trees a few years back and carried water to them for a whole summer. After two years of caring too
much, whenever a cold wind blows in, they shake a lot.
     Every night before I go to bed, I check on my two sons. Mostly I pray (祈祷) 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 face difficulties.
There's always a cold wind blowing somewhere, so what we need to do is to pray for roots that reach deep
into the brave heart, so when the rains fall and the winds blow, we could face it strongly and won't be beaten
down.

A. didn't know how to plant trees at all

据专家权威分析,试题“阅读理解。 When I was growing up, I had an old neighbor, Dr...”主要考查你对  故事类阅读  等考点的理解。关于这些考点的“档案”如下:

故事类阅读

考点名称:故事类阅读

  • 故事类阅读:
    文章一般描述的是某一件具体事情的发生发展或结局,有人物、时间、地点和事件。
    命题往往从故事的情节、人物或事件的之间的关系、作者的态度及意图、故事前因和后果的推测等方面着手,考查学生对细节的辨认能力以及推理判断能力。
    阅读这类材料时,同学们一定要根据主要情节掌握文章主旨大意,同时抓住每一个细节,设身处地根据文章内容揣摩作者的态度和意图,根据情节展开想象,即使是碰到深层理解题也可迎刃而解。

  • 故事类阅读注意:
    初中生接触到的阅读材料大都是故事类。
    阅读故事类的材料,应该抓住人物线索、地点线索、时间线索和情节发展线索。

    特别注意的是,以上线索往往是并存的。因为情节的发展总是涉及到人物的变化、时间的推移、场景的变换等。
    而阅读材料后的阅读理解往往会围绕这些内容设计一些事实类的理解题。

    凡事实类的理解题都可以从阅读材料的表层文字中找到答案。

    在阅读故事类短文时,应理解文章的深层含义,也就是它的主题。在此需要注意的是,现在的阅读理解题在测试事实类的理解题的同时,往往有一道推理类理解测试题.
