He 75 invited us to play in this yard, but he was a very kind person.Dr. Gibbs had some 76 ideas about planting trees. He never watered his new trees. Once I asked why. He said that watering plants would spoil them. If you watered them, each young tree would grow weaker and weaker. So you had to make things difficult for them and 77 the weaker trees early.He talked about how watered trees grew shallow roots, and how trees that werent watered had to grow deep roots in 78 of water under the earth by themselves. Deep roots were very important. So he never watered his trees.Dr. Gibbs died several years after I left home. When I came back home, I walked by his house and looked at the trees that I watched him plant about 25 years ago. They were very big and strong. I planted some trees a few years later and carried water to them for a whole summer.

I would sit in front of the TV all day, thinking about nothing but the next show. It was not long ago that I first learned how important having a passion is to life.On that day I went with my mum to drive my sister to the gym. I was bored. Then, as my mum stopped at a red light, s 81 on the side of the road caught my eye. It was a man dressed in rags (衣衫褴褛). He was homeless. That didnt interest me, for I had seen many like him b 82 . But in some ways he was d 83 . This man was not sitting down with a sad expression. He had a radio in his hand and was dancing h 83 to the music. The radio seemed to be the most precious(珍贵)thing he had. “Mum, why does that man have a radio even thought hes homeless?” I asked. “He bought it,” she replied. “But if hes homeless, why doesnt he use the money to buy food or clothes? He w 84 it on something he doesnt need.” “Well, Sarah, sometimes food and clothes arent the most important things. We need happiness, too.” That man must c 85 enough music to buy a radio instead of food or clothes. I soon realized that happiness is the k 86 to life. Without it, theres nothing to look forward to. A passion gives a person the happiness they need to keep going.DAnswer the questions（根据短文内容回答下列问题）（12分）Alice Munro has won the 2013 Nobel Prize in Literature.
