D

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 (寵壞)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(淺的) roots, and the 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(祈禱) 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.

1. We know from the reading the doctor _________.

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

What do you want to be when you grow up? A teacher? A doctor? How about an ice-cream taster?
Yes, there really is a job where you can get paid to taste ice cream. Just ask John Harrison, an “Official Taste Tester” for the past 2l years. Harrison’s job has been responsible for approving(批準(zhǔn))large numbers of the sweet ice cream – as well as for developing over 15 flavors(味道).
Some people think that it would be easy to do this job; after all, you just have to like ice cream, right? No – there’s more to the job than that, says Harrison, who has a degree in chemistry. He points out that a dairy or food-science degree would be very useful to someone wanting a job in this “cool field”.
In a typical morning on the job, Harrison tastes and grades 60 ice-cream samples. He lets the ice cream warm up to about 12oF. Harrison explains, “You get more flavor from warmer ice cream, which is why some kids like to stir it, creating ice-cream soup.”
While the ice cream warms up, Harrison looks over the samples and grades each one on its appearance. “Tasting begins with the eyes,” he explains. He checks to see if the ice cream is attractive and asks himself, “Does the product have the colour expected from that flavor?” Next it’s time to taste!
Continuing to think up new ideas, try out new flavors and test samples from so many kinds of ice cream each day keeps Harrison busy but happy – working at one cool job.
【小題1】What is John Harrison’s job?
A.An officer.B.An ice-cream taster.
C.A chemist.D.An ice-cream producer.
【小題2】According to John Harrison, what is useful to get a job in “cool field”?
A.To just like ice cream.
B.To find out new flavors each day.
C.To have new ideas every day.
D.To have a degree in food-science.
【小題3】What does Harrison do first when testing ice cream?
A.He smells it.B.He lets it warm up.
C.He tastes its flavor.D.He examines its colour.

How much do you know about Top Combine (至上勵(lì)合 TC), the popular boy band? After two months of training in South Korea, the five boys are back with their latest album Grandness Equal to Heaven (《齊天大盛》). They showed up in Beijing to promote their new record. Hundreds of teenagers screamed in excitement when they saw their idols.
“I was blown away (被……征服) by this album. I knew TC would improve after going to South Korea, but I couldn't have imagined it would be so nice,” said a fan after she listened to the album.
Each of the boys has put something of themselves into the new album, from Zhang Yuan's soft voice to Ma Xueyang's talents composing and writing lyrics. Their hit song Grandness Equal to Heaven is a creative mix of moving rhythms and traditional musical instruments, including flute (笛子). A teenage fan says that Top Combine's new album helps him get through all his tests.
Although they tried to be China's No 1 Motivational (勵(lì)志的) boy band, Top Combine's debut in October, 2008 was not a big success. The band's first EP Arrival was not immediately popular. People accused the band of being unoriginal. They said TC was just like a South Korean boy band, because their fashion sense and music style were similar to those bands.
But they didn't give up. Now with their new album, their hard work looks like it's paying off.
