I have a neighbor we call “Happy”. I have never seen her angry at anything and never heard her say a harsh word to anyone or about anyone.
Happy and her husband Ben, 70, have a huge garden. They spent many happy hours together working on it. Most of the neighbors watched interestingly as Ben doubled the size of their garden. As the cost of food climbed faster than Ben’s beans, we all wished we also had such a large garden. As the rest of us spent our dollars at the market, Happy could be seen picking beans in her back yard.
Last month, Happy and Ben invited most of the neighborhood over for an “all-day food festival”. We were told to bring gloves and arrive very early in the morning. We didn’t know what was about to take place.
By 9:00 am, there were nine of us in the garden picking tomatoes, beans, okra, and squash. By 10:00 am, there was lots of laughter. We shared a lot of stories. By five o’clock, everyone was a little drunk from the wine and beer. After dinner, we played games. As we were leaving, Happy and Ben handed each of us a shopping bag filled with the bounty of the day, already packaged and frozen. What a delightful gift!
Well, the point wasn’t so much about the food. The true gift was a day of friends enjoying one another’s company. None of it would have happened if it had been for Happy and Ben’s garden. Now they have a blog about gardening in case we decided to plant a garden. And I am so proud of my tomato plants!

A.they could spend happy times together with their family in it
B.they could grow vegetables and sell at the market
C.they could invite their neighbors and hold parties in it
D.they didn’t have to spend so much money on food

Which of the following is the same as the underlined word “bounty”?

A.Present. B.Kindness. C.Laughter. D.Happiness.

For what purpose did Happy and Ben invite the neighbors to their garden?

A.To ask them to attend a birthday party
B.To help them get to know each other.
C.To let them enjoy what they grew in the garden.
D.To ask them to share some interesting stories.

What did the writer most probably think of the time he spent in the garden?

A.He thought it was too short but enjoyable.
B.He thought it was wonderful.
C.He thought it was not as good as he thought.
D.He thought it was too terrible.

Can plants eat people? Probably not, but there are many plants that eat meat. Some of them are big, and they can eat small animals. One famous meat-eating plant is the Venus flytrap.
The Venus flytrap is a very strange plant. It grows in dry parts of the United States. Its leaves are like the pages of a book. (A) They can open and close very quickly. Inside the leaves, there are three small hairs. If an insect touches one of the hairs, the leaf closes quickly. The insect cannot get out. In about half an hour, the leaf presses(挤压) the insect until it is dead. Then, the plant covers the insect with a special liquid (液体). Slowly, the plant eats the insect.
(B) Plants are living things that have leaves and roots and grow in earth. Most of them get energy from the sun, the air, and the ground. In some places, the ground is very poor. It doesn’t have all the important things that plants need, especially nitrogen (氮). Animal meat has a lot of nitrogen, so some plants eat meat to get what they need. Let’s hope that some of the bigger plants don’t get the same idea!
Can plants get energy from the air?
Why is Venus flytrap a famous piant?
In some places, why do some plants get energy from animal meat?
写出(A)处划线单词they所指代的名词。
