asked why and he told me that watering plants made them grow weaker.He said hehad to make things difficult for the trees so that only the strongest could survive.He talkedabout 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.Iasked 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 andlooked at the trees Id 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 theygrew up weakly.Every time a cold wind blew,my trees shook.Adversity seemed to be good fbrDoctor Gibbs 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 willbe easy.But lately Pve been thinking that its time to change my prayer.I know my children aregoing to experience difficulties.There*s always a cold wind blowing somewhere.What we need todo is to pray for deep roots,so when

the person who receives help.For example,when we give food to a hungry person,he is lucky.However,scientists have recently begun tostudy the effect（影响）of the kindness on the person giving it.What they have found is that doinggood is good for the doer（行为者）.Acts of kindness can improve health,help a person reach goalsand even add years to a persons life.The first study to show the connection between doing good and living a long life was a studyon aging（衰老）.Beginning in 1956,scientists studied a group of married mothers for 30 years.They thought the women with the most children would die first.But the number of children awoman had did not matter.Wealth did not matter.Education did not matter.What did matter waswhether they volunteered.Women that volunteered had fewer diseases during their life.Many other studies have found the same positive（积极的）effects.Helping other peopleimproves long-term health.The gains are the same for men,women,old people and the young.Those who volunteered had fewer serious diseases than those who did not volunteer.This includeddiseases such as heart attack,cancer and stroke.Scientists are studying many possible causes.One possible cause is an increase inantibodies（抗体），which help fight against disease.One study showed the body produces moreantibodies after an act of kindness.Another one is an increase in Oxytocin（催生素），it is a chemical that fights the effects ofstress from life.Scientists have found a link between being kind to people and an increase in thechemical oxytocin.29.What does the study in Paragraph 2 show?A.Diseases age people

scientist found two exact same snowcry sials（晶 体）that had both formed in a snow storm in Wisconsin,USA.Since then scientists have come to learn that snowflakes canonly form into 35 different shapes.Although scientists are also notsure why exactly the various shapes of snowflake form,they havecon Armed（确定）eight main shapes,with each of these eight shapes having several differentvariations（变化）.Second biggest myth,snow isnt white.Its actually colorless.Snow is made up of very smallpieces of ice,and ice is translucent（半透明的），which means that light does not pass through iteasily,but rather it gets reflected（反射）.When light hits a snowflake,it gets reflected back from the snowflakes many surfaces,oftenbouncing（弹跳）between these surfaces,and because of this that light is reflected back to our eyesas the color white.This is why,when we have a close look at a snowflake,it always looks clear,yet in reality appears as white.23.What does the underlined word myth probably
