21、When we first moved here, we didn’t have a garden. Mike and I talked about making a large vegetable garden somewhere in our yard, but we couldn’t agree on where. Before we went ahead and dug up the grass we spent some time thinking about where it would work best. At last, we chose an old sandbox (沙坑) in our front yard to become our garden.

We dreamed about a lively garden with lots of vegetables. We asked many people what we should do to turn this sandbox into a space, then plants can grow in it. And they gave us lots of ideas. My sister was the most knowledgeable, so we listened mostly to her. At first, Mike made a wood fence (栅栏) and I painted it with the kids. We chose a darker colour because it would fit our light grey house.

Next, Mike dug 17 holes. Then we filled them with soil (土壤). It was still too cold to plant anything, so for days I just stared out the window at these holes. To me, it looked much too untidy. I advised to fill those holes back and dig new ones. This time we ended up with 10. Much better.

Over the next few weeks, I worked on getting everything planted in my garden. I started by planting green onion. But I was too excited and planted it too early. Right away it was clear that it wasn’t going to survive. I had to give it up and try something else. Then my next door neighbour gave me red roses to put in my garden. A few days later we went to a greenhouse and came back not with green onion but peppers, tomatoes and so on. Clearly the vegetable and flower garden was slowly becoming our dream garden. Oh well!

I love the way it turned out. This garden will always remind me of my sister.

【1】When the writer first arrived at her new house, she ________.

A．had a large flower garden

B．dug up the grass in her yard

C．talked about making a sandbox

D．wanted a garden with vegetables

【2】Why did the writer suggest filling the first 17 holes back?

A．Because she listened to her sister.

B．Because the weather was too hot.

C．Because the garden looked like a mess.

D．Because the kids could dig better ones.

【3】Which one is the right order of building the garden according to the passage?

a. We built the fence and painted it.

b. We collected much others’ advice.

c. We prepared the plants that we wanted.

d. We decided on the place of the garden.

e. We dug several holes and filled them with soil.

A．b-d-a-e-c

23、   Have you ever run into a careless cell phone user on the street? Perhaps they were busy talking, texting or checking updates on WeChat (微信) without looking at what was going on around them. As the number of this new “type” of human has kept rising, they have been given a new name — phubbers (低头族).

Recently, a cartoon created by students from China Central Academy of Fine Arts put this group of people in their short film. Phubbers with different social identities(身份) lose themselves in their phones. A doctor plays with his cell phone while letting his patient die. A pretty woman takes selfie (自拍) at the scene of a car accident. A father loses his child without knowing about it while using his mobile phone. A series of similar events finally leads to the destruction(毁灭) of the world.

Although the ending sounds overstated(夸大), the harm phubbing can do is real. Your health is the first to face the effect and result of it. “ Bending your head to check your cell phone could be harmful to your neck,” A famous doctor said. “Also, staring at(盯着) cell phones for a long time will damage(损害) your eyesight little by little.”

But that’s not all. Being a phubber could also damage your social skills and drive you away from your friends and family. Many people pay more attention to their cell phones while others are chatting happily with each other and this creates a strange situation.

It can also cost you your life. There have been lots of reports on phubbers who fell to their death, suffered accidents, and were robbed of their cell phones in broad daylight.

Very often people who travel to the United States forget to tip. It is usual to tip porters who help carry your bags, taxi drivers and waiters. Waiters expect to get a 15% tip on the cost of your meal. Taxi drivers expect about the same amount.

In England, make sure to stand in line even if there are only two of you. It’s important to respect lines there. It’s a good idea to talk about the weather. It’s a favourite subject of conversation with the British.

In Spain, it’s a good idea to have a light meal in the afternoon if someone invites you for dinner. People have dinner very late, and restaurants do not generally open until after 9 p.m.

In Arab countries, men kiss one another on the cheek(脸颊). Your host may welcome you with a kiss on both cheeks. It is polite of you to do the same.

In Japan, people usually give personal or business cards to each other when they meet for the first time. When a person gives you a card, don’t put it into your pocket right away. The person expects you to read it.
