Abraham Lincoln was the sixteenth president of the United States. Every year on Presidents' Day, we honor him as one of the greatest presidents in our country's history. Abe Lincoln was born on February 12,1809 in Kentucky.At night, he liked to read by candlelight, but in the day he worked on his father's farm. As an adult, he lived in Illinois and became a lawyer. He served in Congress where he spoke out against slavery. By the time Lincoln was elected to the president in 1860, the nation was horribly divided over the issue of slavery.Eleven southern states decided to“escape” from the United States. That meant they broke off to form their own nation, which then led to the American Civil War. President Lincoln fought to keep the U．S. together as one united country. In the“Gettysburg Address”， President Lincoln honored the thousands of soldiers who died on that battlefield. He called for the nation to come together so that the “government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth”. After four long years, the American Civil War ended.Abraham Lincoln had kept the United States together in its most terrible crisis. Today, we remember him as a great leader who led his country out of its darkest hour.

We all know that theme parks are places to have fun and amuse ourselves, but among so many exciting rides there are also some dangers.Make sure you know what the safety standards are for all the attractions at the park.If you do that, you will be safe and have fun.
Drink water. Believe it or not, dehydration—when your body doesn't have enough water—is the commonest cause of injuries at theme parks.Drinking water while you are at the park is not enough.You must make sure that you drink enough water before you visit it.
Use your “common sense”. There are lots of people around, so make sure you know where your friends or family are.Also, if you are walking and want to stop, make sure nobody is walking behind you.First step aside, then look behind and if you aren't in anybody's way, then stop.It might sound upset, but crashes between people can cause accidents.
Follow the instructions. The majority of theme parks have instructions for each ride.Some rides only allow people of a certain height.So make sure you are not too tall or too short before boarding any ride.Also, people with certain diseases or conditions are advised not to go on some rides.Do remember: If you are told not to go on a ride, then DON'T.
Do not ride with a bad stomach or if you've just eaten. Rides can make you ill because of their violent changes of direction and your lunch may end up on someone else's head; surely not a very pleasant experience.
Have fun, relax and be a little brave! Some rides might look scary but theme parks are very safe places.

As a young boy, I knew what people said was not always what they meant or were feeling. And I knew it was possible to get others to do what I wanted if I read their real feelings and responded suitably to their needs. At the age of eleven，I sold sponge rubber (泡沫橡胶) door to door after school and quickly worked out how to tell if someone was likely to buy from me. When I knocked on a door, if someone told me to go away but their hands were open and they showed their palms (the inside surfaces of their hands)，I knew it was safe to continue with my presentation (展示) because they weren't angry or threatening although they may have a dismissive(不屑的) attitude. If someone told me to go away in a soft voice but used a pointed finger or closed hand, I knew it was time to leave.
As a teenager, I became a pots and pans salesperson, and my ability to read people earned me enough money to buy my first house. Selling gave me the chance to meet people and study them closely and to know whether they would buy or not, simply by watching their body language.
I joined the life insurance business at the age of twenty. And I went on to break several sales records for my company, becoming the youngest person to sell over a million dollars' worth of business in my first year. This achievement allowed me to become a member of the well known Million Dollar Round Table (MDRT, which recognizes the world's top achievers in life insurance). I was lucky that the skills I'd learned as a boy in watching body language while selling pots and pans could be used in this new area, and were directly related to the success I could have in any business closely connected with people.

Robotic surgery is one thing, but sending a robot inside the body to carry out an operation quite another, which has long been a goal of some researchers to produce tiny robotic devices being capable of traveling through the body to deliver drugs or to make repairs without the need for a single cut, the possibility of which has just got a bit closer.
However, unlike the plot of one film—which featured a microscopic crew and submarine traveling through a scientist's bloodstream—this device could not be put into blood vessels because it is too big. While other types of miniature swallowable robots have been developed in the past, their role has mostly been limited to capturing images inside the body. In a presentation this week to the International Conference, Daniela Rus and Shuhei Miyashita of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology described a robot they have developed that can be swallowed and used to collect dangerous objects accidentally taken in.
To test their latest version, Dr. Rus and Dr. Miyashita designed a robot as a battery hunter, which might seem to be an odd task, but more than 3,500 people in America alone, most of them children, swallow the tiny button cells used in small electronic devices by accident every year. To start with, the researchers created an artificial esophagus (食道) and stomach made out of silicone. It was closely modeled on that found in a pig and filled with medical liquid; the robot itself is made from several layers of different materials, including pig intestine (肠), and contains a little magnet. This is folded up and wrapped in a 10 mm×27 mm capsule of ice. Once this reaches the stomach the ice melts and the robot unfolds which is moved and guided with the use of a magnetic field outside the body. In their tests, the robot was able to touch a button battery and draw it with its own magnet, and during dragging it along, the robot could then be directed towards the intestines where it would eventually be gotten rid of through the anus (肛门). After it, the researchers sent in another robot loaded with medication to deliver it to the site of the battery burn to speed up healing.
The artificial stomach being transparent (透明的) on one side, the researchers can see the batteries and visually control the robots. If not, that will require help with the help from imaging system, which will be a bit more of a challenge, but Dr. Rus and Dr. Miyashita are determined to succeed.
文章大意：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述研究人员都在尝试创造一种微型机器设备，能够游走于人体内，在不切割身体表面的情况下传送药物或修补伤口，现在这种可能性更为接近现实。麻省理工学院的丹妮拉·鲁斯和宫下修平研制的机器人可以被吞咽，并可收集人们不慎摄入的有害异物。
28．According to the passage, the robot operation will probably be able to .
A．travel through a scientist's bloodstream
B．photograph the body to convey to the doctor
C．enter the body to deliver drugs or make repairs
D．operate on a person outside the body completely
29．We learn from Paragraph 3 that .
A．the researchers did the experiment on a chosen animal
B．the robot took necessary drugs besides a little magnet
C．digesting the swallowed batteries is difficult for children
D．the actual size of the robot may be larger than the capsule of ice
30．What may the experiment mean to the medical world
A．The surgeries will cost patients much money.
B．Patients will suffer less for some surgeries.
C．Fewer children will swallow the button cells.
D．A robot will be invented traveling blood vessels.

Like most of us, I try to be mindful of food that goes to waste. The arugula (芝麻菜)was to make a nice green salad, rounding out a roast chicken dinner. But I ended up working late. Then friends called with a dinner invitation. I stuck the chicken in the freezer. But as days passed, the arugula went bad. Even worse, I had unthinkingly bought way too much; I could have made six salads with what I threw out.
In a world where nearly 800 million people a year go hungry, “food waste goes against the moral grain，” as Elizabeth Royte writes in this month's cover story. It's jaw dropping how much perfectly good food is thrown away—from “ugly” (but quite eatable) vegetables rejected by grocers to large amounts of uneaten dishes thrown into restaurant garbage cans.
Producing food that no one eats wastes the water, fuel, and other resources used to grow it. That makes food waste an environmental problem. In fact, Royte writes, “if food waste were a country, it would be the third largest producer of greenhouse gases in the world.”
If that's hard to understand, let's keep it as simple as the arugula at the back of my refrigerator. Mike Curtin sees my arugula story all the time — but for him, it's more like 12 bones of donated strawberries nearing their last days. Curtin is CEO of DC Central Kitchen in Washington,D．C., which recovers food and turns it into healthy meals. Last year it recovered more than 807,500 pounds of food by taking donations and collecting blemished (有瑕疵的) produce that otherwise would have rotted in fields. And the strawberries Volunteers will wash, cut, and freeze or dry them for use in meals down the road.
Such methods seem obvious, yet so often we just don't think. “Everyone can play a part in reducing waste, whether by not purchasing more food than necessary in your weekly shopping or by asking restaurants to not include the side dish you won't eat，” Curtin says.
文章大意：本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了我们日常生活中的食物浪费现象以及华盛顿DC中央厨房的首席执行官科廷为解决食物浪费而采取的努力。
32．What does the author want to show by telling the arugula story？
A．We pay little attention to food waste.
B．We waste food unintentionally at times.
C．We waste more vegetables than meat.
D．We have good reasons for wasting food.
33．What is a consequence of food waste according to the test？
A．Moral decline.
B．Environmental harm.
C．Energy shortage.
D．Worldwide starvation.
34．What does Curtin's company do？
A．It produces kitchen equipment.
B．It turns rotten arugula into clean fuel.
C．It helps local farmers grow fruits.
D．It makes meals out of unwanted food.
35．What does Curtin suggest people do？
A．Buy only what is needed.
B．Reduce food consumption.
C．Go shopping once a week.
D．Eat in restaurants less often.

My dad, George, only had an eighth grade education.A quiet man, he didn't understand my world of school activities. From age 14, he worked. And his dad, Albert, took the money my dad earned and used it to pay family expenses.
I didn't really understand his world either：He was a livestock trucker, and I thought that I would surpass(超过) anything he had accomplished by the time I walked across the stage at high school graduation.
Summers in the mid 70s were spent at home shooting baskets, hitting a baseball, or throwing a football, preparing for my future as a quarterback on a football team. In poor weather，I read about sports or practiced my trombone(长号)．
The summer before my eighth grade I was one of a group of boys that a neighboring farmer hired to work in his field. He explained our basic task, the tractor fired up and we were off, riding down the field looking for weeds to spray with chemicals. After a short way, the farmer stopped and pointed at a weed which we missed. Then we began again. This happened over and over, but we soon learned to identify different grasses like cockleburs, lamb's quarters, foxtails, and the king of weeds, the pretty purple thistle. It was tiring work, but I looked forward to the pay, even though I wasn't sure how much it would amount to.
At home, my dad said，“A job's a big step to growing up.I'm glad you will be contributing to the household.”My dad's words made me realize that my earnings might not be mine to do with as I wished.
My labors lasted about two weeks, and the farmer said there might be more work, but I wasn't interested.I decided it was not fair that I had to contribute my money.
注意：
1．续写词数应为150左右；
2．请按如下格式作答。
When I brought my paycheck home—it was $119—my dad wanted to talk to me.
I was surprised that my dad allowed me to use the money as I wished.

Abraham Lincoln was the sixteenth president of the United States. Every year on Presidents' Day, we honor him as one of the greatest presidents in our country's history. Abe Lincoln was born on February 12,1809 in Kentucky.At night, he liked to read by candlelight, but in the day he worked on his father's farm. As an adult, he lived in Illinois and became a lawyer. He served in Congress where he spoke out against slavery. By the time Lincoln was elected to the president in 1860, the nation was horribly divided over the issue of slavery.Eleven southern states decided to“escape” from the United States. That meant they broke off to form their own nation, which then led to the American Civil War. President Lincoln fought to keep the U．S. together as one united country. In the“Gettysburg Address”， President Lincoln honored the thousands of soldiers who died on that battlefield. He called for the nation to come together so that the “government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth”. After four long years, the American Civil War ended.Abraham Lincoln had kept the United States together in its most terrible crisis. Today, we remember him as a great leader who led his country out of its darkest hour.

We all know that theme parks are places to have fun and amuse ourselves, but among so many exciting rides there are also some dangers.Make sure you know what the safety standards are for all the attractions at the park.If you do that, you will be safe and have fun.
Drink water. Believe it or not, dehydration—when your body doesn't have enough water—is the commonest cause of injuries at theme parks.Drinking water while you are at the park is not enough.You must make sure that you drink enough water before you visit it.
Use your “common sense”. There are lots of people around, so make sure you know where your friends or family are.Also, if you are walking and want to stop, make sure nobody is walking behind you.First step aside, then look behind and if you aren't in anybody's way, then stop.It might sound upset, but crashes between people can cause accidents.
Follow the instructions. The majority of theme parks have instructions for each ride.Some rides only allow people of a certain height.So make sure you are not too tall or too short before boarding any ride.Also, people with certain diseases or conditions are advised not to go on some rides.Do remember: If you are told not to go on a ride, then DON'T.
Do not ride with a bad stomach or if you've just eaten. Rides can make you ill because of their violent changes of direction and your lunch may end up on someone else's head; surely not a very pleasant experience.
Have fun, relax and be a little brave! Some rides might look scary but theme parks are very safe places.

As a young boy, I knew what people said was not always what they meant or were feeling. And I knew it was possible to get others to do what I wanted if I read their real feelings and responded suitably to their needs. At the age of eleven，I sold sponge rubber (泡沫橡胶) door to door after school and quickly worked out how to tell if someone was likely to buy from me. When I knocked on a door, if someone told me to go away but their hands were open and they showed their palms (the inside surfaces of their hands)，I knew it was safe to continue with my presentation (展示) because they weren't angry or threatening although they may have a dismissive(不屑的) attitude. If someone told me to go away in a soft voice but used a pointed finger or closed hand, I knew it was time to leave.
As a teenager, I became a pots and pans salesperson, and my ability to read people earned me enough money to buy my first house. Selling gave me the chance to meet people and study them closely and to know whether they would buy or not, simply by watching their body language.
I joined the life insurance business at the age of twenty. And I went on to break several sales records for my company, becoming the youngest person to sell over a million dollars' worth of business in my first year. This achievement allowed me to become a member of the well known Million Dollar Round Table (MDRT, which recognizes the world's top achievers in life insurance). I was lucky that the skills I'd learned as a boy in watching body language while selling pots and pans could be used in this new area, and were directly related to the success I could have in any business closely connected with people.

(2023·周口店市高二联考)
Robotic surgery is one thing, but sending a robot inside the body to carry out an operation quite another, which has long been a goal of some researchers to produce tiny robotic devices being capable of traveling through the body to deliver drugs or to make repairs without the need for a single cut, the possibility of which has just got a bit closer.
However, unlike the plot of one film—which featured a microscopic crew and submarine traveling through a scientist's bloodstream—this device could not be put into blood vessels because it is too big. While other types of miniature swallowable robots have been developed in the past, their role has mostly been limited to capturing images inside the body. In a presentation this week to the International Conference, Daniela Rus and Shuhei Miyashita of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology described a robot they have developed that can be swallowed and used to collect dangerous objects accidentally taken in.
To test their latest version, Dr. Rus and Dr. Miyashita designed a robot as a battery hunter, which might seem to be an odd task, but more than 3,500 people in America alone, most of them children, swallow the tiny button cells used in small electronic devices by accident every year. To start with, the researchers created an artificial esophagus (食道) and stomach made out of silicone. It was closely modeled on that found in a pig and filled with medical liquid; the robot itself is made from several layers of different materials, including pig intestine (肠), and contains a little magnet. This is folded up and wrapped in a 10 mm×27 mm capsule of ice. Once this reaches the stomach the ice melts and the robot unfolds which is moved and guided with the use of a magnetic field outside the body. In their tests, the robot was able to touch a button battery and draw it with its own magnet, and during dragging it along, the robot could then be directed towards the intestines where it would eventually be gotten rid of through the anus (肛门). After it, the researchers sent in another robot loaded with medication to deliver it to the site of the battery burn to speed up healing.
The artificial stomach being transparent (透明的) on one side, the researchers can see the batteries and visually control the robots. If not, that will require help with the help from imaging system, which will be a bit more of a challenge, but Dr. Rus and Dr. Miyashita are determined to succeed.
文章大意：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述研究人员都在尝试创造一种微型机器设备，能够游走于人体内，在不切割身体表面的情况下传送药物或修补伤口，现在这种可能性更为接近现实。麻省理工学院的丹妮拉·鲁斯和宫下修平研制的机器人可以被吞咽，并可收集人们不慎摄入的有害异物。
28．According to the passage, the robot operation will probably be able to C .
A．travel through a scientist's bloodstream
B．photograph the body to convey to the doctor
C．enter the body to deliver drugs or make repairs
D．operate on a person outside the body completely
解析： 细节理解题。根据第一段“Robotic surgery is one thing, but sending a robot inside the body to carry out an operation is quite another, which has long been a goal of some researchers to produce tiny robotic devices being capable of traveling through the body to deliver drugs or to make repairs without the need for a single cut, the possibility of which has just got a bit closer. (机器人手术是一回事，但送机器人在体内进行手术是另一回事，这一直是一些研究人员的一个目标，即生产微型机器人设备，能将机器人植入体内传送药物或修补伤口，而不需要一次切割，其可能性刚刚接近一点。)”由此可知机器人手术是将机器人植入体内传送药物或修补伤口。故选C。
29．We learn from Paragraph 3 that D .
A．the researchers did the experiment on a chosen animal
B．the robot took necessary drugs besides a little magnet
C．digesting the swallowed batteries is difficult for children
D．the actual size of the robot may be larger than the capsule of ice
解析：细节理解题。根据第三段“This is folded up and wrapped in a 10 mm×27 mm capsule of ice. Once this reaches the stomach the ice melts and the robot unfolds which is moved and guided with the use of a magnetic field outside the body.” (这是折叠和包裹在一个10毫米×27毫米的冰胶囊。一旦冰到达胃部，冰就会融化，机器人就会展开，在体外磁场的引导下移动。)由此可知，机器人的尺寸要比冰胶囊大。故选D。
30．What may the experiment mean to the medical world B
A．The surgeries will cost patients much money.
B．Patients will suffer less for some surgeries.
C．Fewer children will swallow the button cells.
D．A robot will be invented traveling blood vessels.
解析：推理判断题。根据第一段“which has long been a goal of some researchers to produce tiny robotic devices being capable of traveling through the body to deliver drugs or to make repairs without the need for a single cut (这一直是一些研究人员的一个目标，即生产微型机器人设备，能将机器人植入体内传送药物或修补伤口，而不需要一次切割)”和第三段“In their tests, the robot was able to touch a button battery and draw it with its own magnet, and during dragging it along, the robot could then be directed towards the intestines where it would eventually be gotten rid of through the anus (肛门). After it, the researchers sent in another robot loaded with medication to deliver it to the site of the battery burn to speed up healing. (在他们的测试中，机器人能够触摸纽扣电池，并用自己的磁铁吸引它，在拖动它的过程中，机器人可以被引导到肠道，最终从肛门排出。在此之后，研究人员派出了另一个装满药物的机器人，将其运送到电池烧伤的部位，以加快愈合速度。)”显然，这种实验对于医学界的意义在于病人将少遭受痛苦。故选B。
31．Which can be the most suitable title for the passage C
A．An Experiment on Robot
B．Tiny Robot, Significant Role
C．The Fantastic Robotic Voyage
D．The Exploration of Robot Technology
解析： 主旨大意题。根据第二段“In a presentation this week to the International Conference, Daniela Rus and Shuhei Miyashita of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology described a robot they have developed that can be swallowed and used to collect dangerous objects accidentally taken in. (在本周的国际会议上，麻省理工学院的丹妮拉·鲁斯和宫下修平描述了他们开发的一种机器人，它们可以被吞咽，并可收集人们不慎摄入的有害异物。)”由此可知这对于被送入体内捕获异物的微型机器人来说无异于是一次在人体内的神奇之旅。故选C。
D
(2022·新高考Ⅰ卷)
Like most of us, I try to be mindful of food that goes to waste. The arugula (芝麻菜)was to make a nice green salad, rounding out a roast chicken dinner. But I ended up working late. Then friends called with a dinner invitation. I stuck the chicken in the freezer. But as days passed, the arugula went bad. Even worse, I had unthinkingly bought way too much; I could have made six salads with what I threw out.
In a world where nearly 800 million people a year go hungry, “food waste goes against the moral grain，” as Elizabeth Royte writes in this month's cover story. It's jaw dropping how much perfectly good food is thrown away—from “ugly” (but quite eatable) vegetables rejected by grocers to large amounts of uneaten dishes thrown into restaurant garbage cans.
Producing food that no one eats wastes the water, fuel, and other resources used to grow it. That makes food waste an environmental problem. In fact, Royte writes, “if food waste were a country, it would be the third largest producer of greenhouse gases in the world.”
If that's hard to understand, let's keep it as simple as the arugula at the back of my refrigerator. Mike Curtin sees my arugula story all the time — but for him, it's more like 12 bones of donated strawberries nearing their last days. Curtin is CEO of DC Central Kitchen in Washington,D．C., which recovers food and turns it into healthy meals. Last year it recovered more than 807,500 pounds of food by taking donations and collecting blemished (有瑕疵的) produce that otherwise would have rotted in fields. And the strawberries Volunteers will wash, cut, and freeze or dry them for use in meals down the road.
Such methods seem obvious, yet so often we just don't think. “Everyone can play a part in reducing waste, whether by not purchasing more food than necessary in your weekly shopping or by asking restaurants to not include the side dish you won't eat，” Curtin says.
文章大意：本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了我们日常生活中的食物浪费现象以及华盛顿DC中央厨房的首席执行官科廷为解决食物浪费而采取的努力。
32．What does the author want to show by telling the arugula story？ B
A．We pay little attention to food waste.
B．We waste food unintentionally at times.
C．We waste more vegetables than meat.
D．We have good reasons for wasting food.
解析：推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Like most of us, I try to be mindful of food that goes to waste.(像我们大多数人一样，我努力关注那些被浪费的食物。)”及“But as days passed, the arugula went bad. Even worse, I had unthinkingly bought way too much; I could have made six salads with what I threw out.(但随着时间的推移，芝麻菜变坏了。更糟糕的是，我不假思索地买了太多东西；我扔掉的东西可以做六份沙拉。)”可推知，作者想通过讲述芝麻菜的故事来表明我们有时会无意间浪费食物。故选B。
33．What is a consequence of food waste according to the test？ B
A．Moral decline.
B．Environmental harm.
C．Energy shortage.
D．Worldwide starvation.
解析：细节理解题。根据第三段“Producing food that no one eats wastes the water, fuel, and other resources used to grow it. That makes food waste an environmental problem. In fact, Royte writes, ‘if food waste were a country, it would be the third largest producer of greenhouse gases in the world.’(生产没人吃的食物会浪费用于种植食物的水、燃料和其他资源。这使得食物浪费成为一个环境问题。事实上，罗伊特写道，‘如果食物浪费是一个国家，它将是世界上第三大温室气体排放国。’)”可知，根据文中的说法，浪费食物的一个后果是对环境的危害。故选B。
34．What does Curtin's company do？ D
A．It produces kitchen equipment.
B．It turns rotten arugula into clean fuel.
C．It helps local farmers grow fruits.
D．It makes meals out of unwanted food.
解析：细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的“Curtin is CEO of DC Central Kitchen in Washington. D．C., which recovers food and turns it into healthy meals. Last year it recovered more than 807,500 pounds of food by taking donations and collecting blemished (有瑕疵的) produce that otherwise would have rotted in fields. And the strawberries Volunteers will wash, cut, and freeze or dry them for use in meals down the road.(科廷是华盛顿DC中央厨房的首席执行官，该公司把食物复原，变成健康的食物。去年，该组织通过接受捐赠和收集有瑕疵的农产品，收回了超过807500磅的食物，否则这些农产品就会在地里腐烂。草莓呢？志愿者们将清洗、切割、冷冻或干燥它们，以便在路上的餐食中使用。)”可知，科廷的公司用人们不想要的食物重新制作食物。故选D。
35．What does Curtin suggest people do？ A
A．Buy only what is needed.
B．Reduce food consumption.
C．Go shopping once a week.
D．Eat in restaurants less often.
解析：细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“‘Everyone can play a part in reducing waste, whether by not purchasing more food than necessary in your weekly shopping or by asking restaurants to not include the side dish you won't eat，’ Curtin says.(“每个人都可以在减少浪费方面发挥作用，无论是在每周的购物中不购买不必要的食物，还是要求餐馆不包括你不吃的配菜，”科廷说。)”可知，科廷建议人们只买需要的东西来避免浪费食物。故选A。

Indoor plants might look as if they just sit around not doing much, but in many ways they are the unsung heroes of the home. 36.B　, but studies have shown that they can promote people's wellbeing by improving their mood (心情), reducing stress and helping their memory. What's more, indoor plants are easy to look after and are not very expensive.
What are indoor plants
Indoor plants, also known as houseplants or pot plants, are plants that like to grow indoors. Many of these species (物种) are not ideally suited to growing outside in the UK, especially in the winter. 37.D　.
Why are indoor plants good for you
Will Spoelstra, who works at the Royal Botanic Gardens, says, “ 38.C　. I find during the winter months, plants around the house can really lift your mood.” Several studies have backed this up and found that indoor plants can improve creativity, focus and memory. There is also research showing that pot plants can clean the air around them by removing harmful gases, such as carbon dioxide. They also remove some harmful chemicals from paints or cooking. 39.E　.
Which plants can you grow
Aloe vera, peace lilies and spider plants are some of the species that are easy to grow indoors. You can buy plants from supermarkets, garden centres or online. Younger plants are often cheaper than fully grown ones, and you get to care for them as they mature—which is part of the joy of owning plants. “ 40.G　，” Spoelstra says. “It can bring a new interest and focus into people's lives and help to make the link between home and nature.”
A．All plants are different
B．Not only do they look beautiful
C．There are many benefits to growing plants indoors
D．Instead, they grow better inside, where it is warmer
E．Plants like peace lilies and devil's ivy are among the best
F．Changing the pot of your plant from time to time will also help
G．Learning about the requirements of each plant can be very rewarding
