When I was growing up, I had an old neighbor named Doctor Gibbs. 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 hardly watered his new trees, an attitude 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 he had to make things tough for the trees to 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 trees 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 25 years ago. They were tall and strong.
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 encounter 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.
24. How did the author feel about Doctor Gibbs’s planting trees at first?
A. Great. B. Impractical. C. Amused. D. Puzzled.
25. What did Doctor Gibbs do to the trees he planted?
A. He let them grow quickly.
B. He beat them to get their attention.
C. He helped them search for water.
D. He read a newspaper near them.
26. Which of the following can best describe Doctor Gibbs?
A. Kind and wise. B. Calm and brave.
C. Careful and ambitious D. Strict and devoted.
27. What does the author learn from Doctor Gibbs?
A. Elders are treasures.
B. Two heads are better than one.
C. A man without distant care must have near sorrow.
D. Only those who bear the most become the highest.
C
“Now!” whispered Suki. "Quick, while the clerk is not looking. Heart pounding, Leah slid two tubes of lipstick into her purse. She looked bored as she followed her friends Suki and Jill out of the store, but inside she felt panicked.
“I can’t believe you made me do that,” Leah cried. “Relax,” said Jill. “Everybody does it sometimes. And we didn’t make you do it.” She said nothing, but Leah knew she wouldn’t have done that on her own. She was just experiencing huge peer pressure.
Sometimes, though, the stresses in your life can actually come from your peers. They may pressure you into doing something you’re uncomfortable with, such as shoplifting, doing drugs or drinking, or taking dangerous risks when driving a car.
The pressure to conform can be powerful and hard to resist. A person might feel pressure to do something just because others are doing it. Peer pressure can influence a person to do something that is relatively harmless, or something that has more serious consequences. Giving in to the pressure to dress a certain way is one thing, and going along with the crowd to drink or smoke is another.
The people who are most easily influenced will follow someone else’s lead first. Then Others may go along too, so it can be easy to think, “It must be OK. Everyone else is doing its They must know what they’re doing.” Before you know it, many people are going along with the crowd, perhaps on something they might not otherwise do.
Responding to peer pressure is part of human nature, but some people are more likely to give in, and others are better able to resist by standing their ground. People who are unsure of themselves, new to the group, or inexperienced with peer pressure may be more likely to give in.
28. Who took the lipstick out of the store?
A. Jill. B. Suki. C. Leah. D. The author.
29. What does the underlined word “conform” in Paragraph 4 mean?
A. Stop. B. Obey. C. Last. D. Come.
30. Who will be easily influenced by peer pressure according to the text?
A. Tom who usually goes to a party with friends.
B. Lucy who likes opposing plans of other classmates.
C. Peter who is very good at talking with their parents.
D. Jack who often asks for friends’ advice and follow it.
31. What kind of the character helps you most in resisting peer pressure?
A. Helpful. B. Adventurous.
C. Independent. D. Easy-going.
D
Do you want to know the meaning of your dog’s bark? There is a good chance. A Japanese toy maker declares that they have developed a device (设备) that translates dog barks into human language and plans to begin selling the device under the name of Bowlingual in US pet stores and gift shops next year.
Tokyo-based Takara Co. Ltd. says about 300, 000 of the dog devices have been sold since it was on sale in Japan late last year. It is forecasting far bigger sales once an English language translation for dogs comes to America next year. The United States is home to about 67 million dogs, more than six times the number in Japan.
“We know that the Americans love their dogs so much, so we don’t think they will mind spending $ 120 on this product,” the Takara marketing manager said during an interview at a recent pet products conference in Atlanta.
Regarded as one of the coolest inventions of 2017 by Time magazine, Bowlingual is made up of a 3-inch long wireless microphone that is fastened to a dog collar and sends out sounds to a small console (操作台) that is connected to a database. The console divides each bark into six emotional
types—happiness, sadness, disappointment, anger, threat and desire, and shows common phrases, such as “You’re ticking me off,” that fit the dog’s emotional state.
Takara says it has spent millions of dollars developing the device in cooperation with famous sound experts and animal behaviorists.
One thing that does appear certain is that the markets for animal translation products will likely remain a dog’s world since Takara has no plans to develop a similar device for cats. “They are too unpredictable,” the marketing manager said.
32. Why does Takara feel confident about the sale of Bowlingual in America?
A. The price of Bowlingual is very low.
B. Americans like researching new inventions.
C. There are lots of dogs in America that need to be cared for.
D. Americans are willing to spend money on their dogs.
33. What does the underlined word “They” in the last paragraph refer to?
A. Cats. B. Plans. C. Markets. D. Products.
34. What can we learn from the text?
A. Bowlingual has sold well in America.
B. Bowlingual has many phrases about emotion in its console.
C. The dog devices sold in Japan can understand English.
D. Takara has spent millions of dollars promoting the device.
35. What can be the best title for the text?
A. Japanese scientists will translate dogs’ words
B. Takara is devoted to developing Bowlingual
C. Bowlingual helps you know your dogs better
D. A kind of device has been sold out in Japan

Lazy people will never amount to anything in life. However, laziness can be defeated once a few changes have been made in your mind.
One way to fight laziness is to get enough sleep. Many people lack sleep constantly, since they
stay up too late and get up too early to prepare for work. 36 . Laziness works hand in hand with a lack of motivation and a tendency to procrastinate (拖延). By adjusting your sleep schedule to provide a few more hours of meaningful rest, you can fight laziness throughout the day.
Another way to fight laziness is to change your mind from passive to active. 37 Others take a more proactive approach, viewing each project or task as a challenge they must overcome alone. Laziness sets in when you no longer feel in charge of your own life.
38 . A television in the living room may provide entertainment, but watching too much TV often promotes laziness. Create a reward system for yourself, just as parents do for a child to promote responsibility.
Laziness can also be a lasting problem at home. Couples and children may all have different energy levels, but laziness can be spread if not addressed promptly. To fight household laziness, lead by example. Be the first to collect and wash dishes after a meal. Others in the house may eventually follow your example and play their own roles. 39
Finally, taking exercise regularly can help you fight laziness. 40 , which enables you to have more energy and help boost your mood.
A. Knowing how to fight laziness is important
B. These people have little motivation once they arrive home
C. With strong determination, you will be able to achieve your goal
D. Some people treat their lives as if they were pushed from project to project
E. It is difficult to practice laziness when you are surrounded by motivated people
F. Enough exercise and a balanced diet can help you to develop a healthy lifestyle
G. Some people fight laziness by removing the disturbing things that surround them
