13、I had an old neighbour, a doctor named Gibbs. When Doctor Gibbs wasn't saving lives，he was planting trees. He had some interesting ideas about planting trees. He hardly watered his new trees.
Once I asked why and he told me that watering plants made them grow weaker. He said he had to make things difficult 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 trees' attention.Doctor Gibbs died a couple of years after I left home. Sometimes I walked by his house and looked at the trees I'd watched him plant 25 years ago. They were tall and strong.
I planted several trees myself a few years ago. Two years of caring for these trees meant they grew up weakly. Every time a cold wind blew, my trees shook. Adversity seemed to be good for Doctor Gibb's trees，they could never relax.
Every night before I go to bed，I check on my two sons. I often 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 experience difficulties. 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 separated.
1．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.
2．What does the word "Adversity" in Paragraph 5 mean?
A．Difficult living conditions. B．Little water.
C．Enough care or attention. D．Bad weather.
3．What does the writer learn from Doctor Gibbs?
A．Elders are treasures.
B．No pain，no gain.
C．Two heads are better than one.
D．Only those who bear(容忍)the most become the highest.

14、Imagine one day, the water taps (水龙头) in your house stop running. You have to pay a lot of money to buy water from shops. And still there isn’t enough water for everyone. Your mother has to save the family’s shower (洗澡) water to use for washing clothes. Then she has to use that same dirty water to wash other things. Would you be able to stand that kind of life?
Probably not. But that’s what kids in Yemen are experiencing. Experts say Yemen is going to be the first country in the world to run out of water. According to a World Bank report, the capital, Sana, will run out of drinking water as early as 2025.
Because of the water shortage (短缺) in Yemen, the government often cuts the water supply. Hannan, an 18-year-old from Lahej，told the Times, “In a good week we’ll have a water supply (供给) all week. But then the following week there will be water only for a day or two.”
Hannan said only rich people have enough water to use. They can buy water from the shops or from the water trucks. Private companies own the trucks. They travel around the city every day to sell water--- at very high prices. “A lot of people can’t afford it,” she said.
The average (平均的) person in Yemen uses 100 to 200 cubic meters of water per year. That is far below the international water poverty（贫困）line of 1,000 cubic meters.
The government is thinking of making use of sea water. But it will cost a lot and it may not happen soon enough to help the people of Yemen.
1．The underlined word “that” in Paragraph 2 refers to ______.
A．drinking water B．buying water from shops
C．suffering from water shortage D．washing clothes with used water
2．Which of the following is not true?
A．Common people in Yemen don’t have enough water to use.
B．People in Yemen have no water to use during a bad week.
C．Rich people in Yemen buy water at very high prices.
D．Private companies in Yemen sell water on their trucks.
3．It can be inferred(推断) that ______.
A．the capital of Yemen is developing fast
B．Hannan is a teenager from a rich family
C．Sana will run out of water in 10 years
D．private companies selling water make a lot of money
4．The Yemen government ______.
A．can do nothing about the problem of water shortage
B．may try to make use of sea water
C．only cares about rich people’s lives
D．has found a practical solution

16、 How fit are your teeth? Are you lazy about brushing them? We brush our teeth every day but few people know how well we're brushing. Today, a French company has introduced an electric toothbrush, which can work wirelessly（无线地）with a smartphone. It's called the Kolibree toothbrush. It has different models, and will cost from$99 to$200 .The US is the first target market.
Users download an app and connect via Bluetooth, and the Kolibree will record: 1 .the time you spent brushing teeth. 2.whether all areas of your mouth are reached.
3 .whether you brush up and down instead of just side to side. Then it will send the information to a mobile phone via Bluetooth, telling you whether you have brushed in a proper way. The Kolibree records your progress and scores your brushing way to help you improve brushing habits. It's kind of like having a private dentist actually watch your brushing on a day-to-day basis.
The toothbrush can also talk to other apps on your phone, so developers could create a game controlled by your toothbrush. When you brush your teeth, you can score your points for beating the monsters in your teeth. That's really very interesting. The Kolibree toothbrush is created to be smart but also fun.
The Kolibree toothbrush was invented by Thomas Serval. He says the idea of inventing it came from his experience as a father. He would come home from work and ask his kids if they had brushed their teeth. They always answered "yes", but Thomas used to find their toothbrush heads dry. He decided that a kind of brush was needed to tell him how well they brushed their teeth.
Thomas says that one day, it'll be possible to use a brushing unit with a camera. The camera can even examine holes in your teeth while you brush.
