When I was in the second grade，my teacher gave all her students some seeds（种子）. She told us to watch the magic of the seeds once we planted them. Excitedly，I put a few seeds in my pot. I watered them for a few days and purple flowers came out.

In class，I reported back to my teacher that the magic was the purple flowers. My classmates reported back with the red，white or yellow ones. I was wondering why we didn't have green flowers. When the bell rang，we drew a conclusion” a flower garden is beautiful”，and this was my first gardening experience.

Years later，one day，when we drone by Naperville downtown in a summer. Mom pointed out a big land.” Look，this is the community garden land.” she told me.” What is a community garden land?” I asked.” When people live in apartments or town homes，they don't have much land. People pay a little money to rent（租）a piece of land from the city. They can grow anything.” Why don't we rent one?” I curiously asked.” We don't need to. We have a house，so we have a small piece of land.”

A few years ago，an older couple moved in next door. They gave us some tomatoes from their garden. They grew the best tomatoes I had ever tasted. I asked my mom to buy some tomatoes just like our neighbors'. Mon said it was impossible to buy those tomatoes from the supermarket.

So，last year，I decided to try. I had my dad dig out a small land in the back yard of our house，put it some peat moss（泥炭藓）and mushroom compost（蘑菇肥）. For the start，I only planted some tomatoes and cucumbers. Day by day，I looked after my garden and took out weeds（杂草）.I was surprised to see that cucumbers actually grow on the vine，and my tomatoes had a special kind of earthly smell.

At the same time，I found myself suddenly having an interest in weather. I always wished rain to water my little garden. My brother Alex teased me.” You are an old farmer now.”

One day，I found some tomatoes gone in one plant. I was a little sad. Who dared to steal my ttomatoes? It was a few rabbits. When I was about to drive them away，my dad stopped me and said,” Alice，the rabbits are thirsty. Let them eat as much as they want. Sharing your food is a good thing.”

Later on，I found people picking a few tomatoes in my little garden and eating them with a satisfying smile. I never said a word. Instead，I felt joy in my heart. When harvest time came，I picked so many fresh cucumbers and delicious tomatoes.

In America，people grow gardens everywhere. The air is always fresh and clean because of many trees，different plants and beautiful flowers. People there learn to love our earth，and love hearing the expression” go hug a tree”. Gardening needs lots of hard work and patience，but mother earth rewards us a lot.

1.The underlined word“teased”in Paragraph 6 is close to“　　　　 ”．

A．when she began to plant seeds in the second grade

B．when she asked her mother to rent a piece of land

A．gardening takes lots of time and effort　　

B．gardening gives a few rewards to humans

C．gardening helps the writer love tomatoes　

D．gardening makes the writer hate rainy days

One Thursday afternoon, when I was in Grade 9, a new boy came into my classroom. He was short and thin. He walked up to the teacher and told her, very seriously, that he was new. His name was Christian. He sat down, took a look at me, and then looked away. I didn’t think he was very nice and I was sure he wasn’t the type I would like to become friends with.

During that year, I didn’t talk to him much, but he smiled at me when our eyes met, always shyly. He never ate lunch with anybody, and he never talked to anybody but me.

But one day I joined those unkind kids who were making fun of him. We made fun of him though I thought it was wrong.

“Haven’t you got any friends?” a kid asked Christian, who had walked past us alone, head down.

“No, he hasn’t got any friends. He’s too stupid and shy，”I said. Then Christian looked up at me with the saddest dog eyes I had over seen. I felt very sorry at that moment.

That night, I couldn’t sleep because I couldn’t get Christian’s face out of my mind. In the weeks that followed, he never met my eyes in class and never smiled at me. It was really hard for me to decide to write him a note asking him to forgive me. But I thought I should.

The next day in class, I wrote him a note telling him how sorry I felt. About five minutes later, I turned and saw tears in his eyes. “You will never realize what your apology(道歉) has meant to me, Jimmly.” he said to me. “I hope we can become friends. ”

We had lunch together that noon and we had the best talk I had ever had. Over the years at high school, we were close friends.

When I think back, I realize that, if I had not apologized, I would never have known what a lovely person Christian was. Apologies can really change your life, so never miss the chance to tell somebody you are sorry.
