He didn't look like any 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 pains, no gains". 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 Gibb's 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 to pray for deep roots, so when the rains fall and the winds blow, we won't be torn apart.31.With the trees planted, Doctor Gibbs often __________.A. paid little attention to themB. kept watering them every morningC. talked to them to get their attentionD. beat them to make them grow deep roots32. What does the underlined word “tough” mean in this passage?A. strictB. strongC. difficultD. not easily damaged33.What does the author think of the way Doctor Gibbs planted trees?A. Strange and harmful.B. Interesting and funny.C. Cruel and unacceptable.D. Original and reasonable.34.Which prayer does the author wish for his sons?A. Meet people like Dr Gibbs in the future.B. Be able to stand the rain and wind in their lives.C. Have an easy life, without too much to worry about.D. Have good luck, encountering less hardship in their life.35.Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?A. Prayers for my sonsB. Doctor Gibbs and his treesC. Growing rootsD. Watering treesCAn Indian movie about two sisters has become a huge hit in China. The Hindi language film, called Dangal(摔跤吧,爸爸), has earned almost $ 170 million in China since its release there on May 5.Much has been written about why Dangal has enjoyed such big success in China. Some people say one reason is that the film’s star and producer, Aamir Khan. He is famous in India’s Bollywood film industry. Two of his ear lier films were also big hits in China.Khan’s popularity was clear after he got more than 600,000 followers on theChinese social media service Sina Weibo within two months of joining. But he is not the only reason that the film strongly connects with audience across China. Media has pointed out how it shows similarities between parental systems in China and India.

As a father, he wanted his son to win the medal. But his wife only gives birth to daughters. So he finally decides to train them to be world-class wrestlers. The movie is more serious than most Bollywood productions, which tell happy love sorties and include colorful music and dance performances.Edward Chan is a Professor at the Hong Kong Polytechnic University. He says the strict way of parenting film is something people in China can easily relate to. “1 think the father role dscribed by the movie in India is quite similar to the culture, especially the traditional culture in China. ”The Chinese government-supported Global Times newspaper pointed that movie critics (评论家)in China did not like Dangal. Most of them agree with the fact that the father in the film was forceful in pushing his daughters to become wrestlers. But the film Dangal is really aimed to educate children to work for their dreams. 36.What’s the main reason for the father teaching his daughters to wrestle?A. He wanted them to realize his goal.B. He wanted to punish them.C. Few women took this sport.D. He loved them very much.37.What do most Chinese movie critics agree?A. The truth of the whole story was doubtful.B.
