He didnt look like any doctor Id ever known. He never yelled at us for playing in his yard, but was always very kind.When Doctor Gibbs wasnt saving lives, he was planting trees. He had some interesting theories about planting trees. He believed in the principle: No pain, no gain. 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 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, hed 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 Id watched him plant some 25 years ago. They were 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 seemed to benefit Doctor Gibbs trees in ways fort 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.

He also had to fight his way across deserts, through jungles and over mountains. He cycled through heavy rains and temperatures of up to 45 degrees, all to help people in need.

The worst thing that happened to him was having to cycle into a headwind on a road that crosses the south of Australia.

CAccording to a report , more than a million workers will fail to take their full annul leave(年假) this year in UK. Thats to say, totally, those workers will give up 6.2 million days of vacation, with an average of five days for each worker. For their employers, they feel happy because that is equal to a potential $500 million of free work, which, according to an economist will boost(使增长) the output of the economy by about two percent.The report also showed that the main reasons employees give up their remaining annul leave are due to pressures at work and their failing to appreciate that taking a break could make them more productive and, in turn, boost the economy in the long term.The research, done by price parison website Travel Supermarket, found that more than one in four of those who will give up their remaining holidays (28 percent) will do so due to pressures at work. Bob Atkinson, travel expert for Travel Supermarket said: “As the economy is not so satisfying, its no surprise that people are cautious to take all their leave, especially if they feel stressed and uncertainty at work.” Nine percent of the 2,020 people surveyed also said they would feel guilty about taking the leave because their work would have to be taken care of by their colleagues. A further three percent said they would be concerned about how taking time off would look to their employer, while the same percentage said they did not want to miss anything interesting or beneficial at work in the time they would be away.Vicky Redwood, chief UK economist at Capital Economics, said: “Suppose that there are about 250 working days in a year, getting an extra five free days of work from their employees could in theory boost the output of the economy by about two percent. On the other hand, if workers are less productive as a result of not getting enough breaks from work, taking all the annual leave, in fact, will perhaps increase the economy.”36. According to the report, in UK more than a million workers .A. will not ask for leave in their working days B. will take five days leave on averageC. will work 500 million days freely for their employersD. will not take all their holiday leave this year37. Which of the following is NOT a reason why employees dont take all their holiday leave?A. They have a lot of pressures at work.B. They dont realize that they will be more productive after taking a break. C. They are busy and have no time because they have a lot of work to do. D. They dont think it proper to have their work taken care of by their colleagues.38. According to the report above, three percent of the people dont take all their holiday leave because _.A. they are worried about their employers view on their taking holidaysB. they are under great pressure from the workC. they are afraid of being found by their employers while taking holidaysD. they worry about losing their jobs after taking holidays39. From what Vicky Redwood said, we can infer that _.A. employees extra five days of work will certainly boost the output of the economy by about two percent.B. not getting enough breaks from work may cause workers less productiveC. in order to boost output in the economy, employees should give up some holidaysD. the more leave the employees take, the better the economy will bee 40. The passage is mainly about _.A. a report about how the workers in UK take their holidays B. the fact that one million employees in UK dont take all their annual leave C. how the pressures at work affect the workers in UKD. reasons why employees give up their right to take holidays D Taxi, the underground, drivingin London these means of transport are expensive. As a student on a budget, I couldnt afford the 30 pounds (around 300 yuan) fare for a taxi. Even a bus was one pound and 20 pence (about 12 yuan) for a single ticket. I didnt need to travel this way anyway. I had Mabel- my London bike. When I moved to Beijing, like every foreigner, I was delighted to discover I could take a cab for cheaper than a single journey on the subway. But something was wrong. I missed Mabel. That was when I met Mandarin Mabel also known as Mandy, my Beijing bike. In many ways, Beijing is made for: It is a flat, easy land pared with hilly London. The cycling citys north/south/east/west square structure is also easier to travel than Londons unplanned, twisting streets. However, Beijing es pletely with its own dangers. The rules of the road areflexible. Bikes, cars, passers-by all float up and down ways in both directions. pared with Londons terrible cycle paths, in Beijing, every road has huge, wide cycle ways. But cars, taxis and motorbikes see no reason why they shouldnt use the cycle ways as a shortcut, and why they shouldnt announce you to get out of their way when they do. Beijing traffic is more good-natured. In London, the road is an active war. People shout, quarrel and beat on each others windows. In Beijing zone, drivers never get actively angry. In fact, often they ignore cyclists. Obviously that means its up to the cyclists to see them. Mandy is a tree Beijing bike. It is nearly broken, it makes loud noises every time you ride on it, and I have had to make several emergency repair stops for it. But cycling round Beijing on a sunny day is a joy. It is just me, Mandy and the city.41. What can we conclude from the first paragraph? A. Bicycles are the most popular means of transport in London. B.
