When I was growing up, I had an old neighbor, Dr. Gibbs. He didn't look like any doctor I'd ever known. He never invited us to play in his yard, but he was a very kind person. When Dr. Gibbs wasn't saving lives, he was planting trees. He owned a large field and wanted to make it a forest. The good doctor had some interesting ideas about planting trees. He never watered his new trees. Once I asked why. He said that watering plants spoiled(毁坏) them, and that if you watered them, each baby tree would grow weaker and weaker, so you had to make things difficult for them and pick out the weaker trees early on.
He talked about how watering trees made for shallow(浅的) roots(根), and how trees that weren't watered had to grow deep roots in search of water under the earth by themselves. Deep roots were very important. So he never watered his trees. He'd planted an oak(橡树)and instead of watering it every morning, he'd beat it with a rolled-up newspaper. I asked him why he did that, and he said it was to get the tree's attention.
Dr. Gibbs died several years after I left home. Every now and then, I walked by his house and looked at the trees that I watched him plant about twenty-five years ago. They're very big and strong now. I planted some trees a few years back and carried water to them for a whole summer. After two years of caring too much, whenever a cold wind blows in, they shake a lot.
Every night before I go to bed, I check on my two sons. Mostly I 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 face difficulties. There's always a cold wind blowing somewhere, so what we need to do is to pray for roots that reach deep into the brave heart, so when the rains fall and the winds blow, we could face it strongly and won't be beaten down.

根据材料内容选择最佳答案,并将其标号填入题前括号内。
It was one of the hottest days of the dry season. If we didn't see any rain soon, we would lose everything.
One day when I was in the kitchen, I saw my six-year-old son, Billy, walking towards the forest. He was clearly trying to be as still as possible. Several minutes after, he had gone into the forest, he ran out again, towards. the house. This activity went on for an hour, walking carefully to the forest and running back to the house. I really wanted to know what Billy was doing.
Finally I followed him into the forest. I found that he was holding a cup of water. He walked very carefully not to drop the water.
I saw a baby deer lying on the ground. It lifted its head to drink the water in my son's cup. After the deer drank up, Billy jumped up and ran back to the house to get more water. When he saw me, he said, "I'm not wasting. " I found that his eyes were filled with tears.
“I know. " I watched the most beautiful heart working so hard to save another life.Tears ran down my face. As my tear drops began to hit the ground, other drops and more drops and more suddenly joined them I looked up at the sky. It was raining.
Some people would say this was all just a huge coincidence (巧合). Those miracles(奇迹) don't really exist (存在). I would like to believe it was a miracle. All I can say is that the rain that came that day saved our farm just like the actions of one little boy saved a life.
