【解析】

本文是一篇寓言故事。乔的土地贫瘠没有好收成，他抱怨不能掌管天气。上帝知道后，让他掌管天气。他改变了晴天和雨天之间的天气，庄稼越来越大，但到了收获季节，他发现自己强壮的庄稼根本没有长出任何谷粒，他感到困惑和失望，开始哭泣。上帝知道后告诉他，虽然你给了庄稼晴天，但是他们没有坚实的根，当然不会长出果实。故事告诉我们，只有通过挑战，才能收获生命的果实。

【1】句意：如果我能掌管天气，每件事情都会变好的。

【7】句意：你想知道为什么你还是得不到你想要的好收成么？

even甚至；just仅仅；still仍然；nearly几乎。联系上文可知，Joe在掌管天气之后仍然没有得到好收成。故选C。

【8】句意：那是因为你从来没有要求过风，暴雨，雪，冰或者任何能使空气更新鲜，根部更强壮的东西。

reached达到；asked要求；looked看；cared关心。要求，请求ask for；根据句意表示要求过风，暴雨，雪等其他东西。故选B。
