When Jane Austen (1775--1817) wrote her novels in England, she was writing about a 21that most of us would not recognize.

But today Austen’s books are in great 22than ever. In the last ten years, five or six novels have been 23into Hollywood films, while her books continue to be bestsellers. So why is Austen still 24?

Richard Jenkyns, a professor of English at Oxford University argued that her novels still25  people because they26the same issues today as they were when she wrote them.

Her novels are about women 27to find a perfect husband, but also28issues surrounding marriages, friendships and the family. “The plots are fairly timeless about human interaction 29are familiar to us,” Jenkyns says.

The most famous book Austen wrote is Pride and Prejudice, a 30story between Elizabeth Bennett and Mr. Darcy. At first the two 31do not get on. They32 fall in love, but still have to 33opposition to their relationship from their families.

My grandmother was a master gardener that could make anything bloom. Even me.

She spent most of her life living on a farm in the mountains of North Caroline, where she got married, raised four children, and watched the changing of the seasons. When I was 12 years old, my dad gave up working downtown and moved back to the farm to turn to gardening. I visited on weekends to keep them company.

Every time my farm chores were done, I was free to climb the mountain, singing songs and gathering flowers. Sometimes the plants scratched me. My grandmother would say: “Beauty has a price. I hope it was worth it.” I would say, “Yes, ma’am. It was.” Then I’d scratch some more. At dusk, we’d sort the flowers and make bouquets(花束): One for the living room, one for the kitchen, and three for the bedrooms.

Even then as a child, I knew that what I desired most from my grandmother was not her flowers but her time. She has been gone for decades, but sometimes when I reach down to pick a flower or pull a weed, I see her hand, not mine. I thought I’d grow up to be a gardener as well. I informed myself, someday, when my children had children，I would be a gardening grandma. Then the grandbabies started showing up, and I discovered I would much rather chase after them than go digging.

The truth is, I’m no gardener. I’m a picker, not a planter. I don’t need to plant a garden. My children are my flowers. They delight me and complete me with a beauty that is worth any price.

My grandmother and I differ in lots of ways, but from her, I do learn what a grandmother means. I also learn that I need attend to my grandbabies with time and water them with love. I hope that, one day, when they hold their first grandchild, they might see my hand.
