阅读下面的文字，完成小题
池莉读《花经》
①一个人一生可做的事情很多，但世上不知多少聪明人，一生没有搞好一件事。在很长一个人生阶段里，我只长年岁不长心眼，想来真是痴长。
②先前，我外婆家屋后有一座大园子，园子里头长满花木蔬菜和中草药，芙蓉花、鸡冠花、桃树、垂柳、小白菜、香葱、车前草、鸡血藤等混长在一个园子，引得蜂来燕往蝶飞蚓爬，使儿时的我玩得十分着迷。
③当然，这种私家的园子后来很快就没有了，支援了国家建设。园子变成了一座丝织厂，工厂的围墙抵在我家屋后，整日整夜哐当哐当地响，我不喜欢这声音。从此，我一直心怀渴望，非常非常想养花种草。渴望与日俱增，可多年来就偏是没有机会，既没有自己的住房也没有自己的一寸土地。
④十几年熬过去，去年分得一套公寓，奔到阳台上一看，发现竟然留了养花槽。这一高兴，头脑轰地发了热，不知不觉拿业余爱好当了正经事做。一连好些日，提只篮子和小桶，四处挖湖泥。在大大忙了一阵之后，花种上了，草也养上了，菜子也撒上了。然后，抱着肩来来回回欣赏，倒真有一种了却了某个夙愿的感觉。以后每逢出差或笔会，凡遇上奇花异草，都挺执著地弄点回来栽进盆里。家里厨房三天两头做鱼、肉，也常记得将洗鱼洗肉的水倒入花槽。
⑤可是到了秋季，结果并不理想。葡萄才结了几颗，花儿没开几朵，从庐山植物园特意带回的碗莲之类也都死了。怎么回事呢?为此，我特意找了《花经》来读，读着读着，心中渐亮。合上《花经》，扔下花铲，淡然一笑：我不再养花了。实际上，《花经》这本厚书我翻来覆去看的只是前面一节：序言。
⑥序言里简洁地记叙了本书作者之父黄岳渊先生的一段经历。黄岳渊先生在宣统元年的时候本是一名朝廷命官，斯时年将三十。有一日黄先生想：古人曰三十而立，我该如何立人呢?他想，做官要应付人家，做商呢，又要坑害人家，得做一件得天趣的事才好，才算立了为人的根本，于是，黄先生毅然辞官隐退。他做什么呢?他购买田地十余亩(时田价每亩约二十金)，渐扩充至百亩。黄先生从此聚精会神，抱瓮执锄，废寝忘食，盘桓灌溉，甘为花木之保姆。果然，黄家花园欣欣向荣，蒸蒸日上，花异草奇，声名远扬。每逢花时，社会名流裙屐联翩，吟诗作赋。更有文人墨客指点花木，课睛话雨。众人深得启示：既混浊之世，百无一可，唯花木差可引为知已。
⑦据说当时的文坛名人周瘦鹃、郑逸梅等人皆为黄先生的花木挚友。黄先生养花养出了精神文明，养出了人间知已，养出了《花经》这等好书，恐怕这才叫养花种草!这才叫做了人生一件事!
⑧一件事要做好，岂能凭你心中有一点喜欢?有一点迷恋?三天浇点水，五天上点肥?
⑨曾少年狂妄，自以为聪明。把表面的一些由头借来，实际标榜自己为至情至性之人。这也做做，那也试试，好听人评价个多才多艺。近年来国家大兴经济，文人纷纷“下海”，我也曾与人发议论说作家的智商是足够经商的。最近由读《花经》而获顿悟：人的一生只能做一件事。政客们终身搞阴谋，商人们终身搞欺骗，情种终身搞爱情(比如贾宝玉)，黄岳渊先生终身搞花草。一生的时间并不多，一生的精力也不多，要搞好一件事实在不容易。用去一生，搞好了一件事，那也就够可以了。世上不知多少聪明人，一生没有搞好一件事。
⑩总之，我是不敢再说文人经商之类的话了，也不敢再狂热地养花弄草。就连剪裁时装、研究烹调之类的兴趣也淡了下来，兴致所至，偶尔为之，拿得起，放得下，决不长期牵肠挂肚。傻一点儿，笨一点儿，懒一点儿，冷一点儿，就做一件事——写作，我这一生。
【小题1】下列对作品的分析与概括，不恰当的两项是（  ）（  ）(5分)

A．外婆家后园的花红柳绿、虫鸣燕舞给儿时的“我”留下深深的印象，为“我”成年后的养花之渴望做了铺垫。

B．作者认为，自己在很长一个人生阶段只长年岁不长心眼，是因为自己连养花种草都做不好。

C．第⑥段叙述黄岳渊先生辞官种花之事，多用四字句和文言词语，既使文章语言凝练典雅，也可借此暗示黄岳渊先生的高雅。

D．文章先从自己种花草的经历谈起，再对照黄岳渊种花草的故事，顿悟出人的一生只能做一件事的道理，由事入理，说理既深刻又形象。

E．作者对种花草一事的感情变化经历了未种时的渴望、如愿后的高兴、秋收时的苦恼、彻悟后的淡然的过程。
【小题2】作者翻阅《花经》本是要寻找种花方法的，却转述了“序言”中黄岳渊先生的事迹，这样写有什么作用?(4分)
【小题3】品读文章第⑨段，简要解说作者所“顿悟”的“人的一生只能做一件事”的内涵，再结合文章内容谈谈怎样才能真正做到“人生只做一件事”。(6分)
