A
I have a neighbour 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 neighbours 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 backyard.
Last month,Happy and Ben invited most of the neighbourhood 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 am,there were nine of us in the garden picking tomatoes,beans,okra,and
squash.By 10 am,there was lots of laughter.We shared a lot of stories.By five o'clock,everyone
was a little drunk on 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 not 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 time together with their family in it

C.they could invite their neighbours and hold parties in it
D.they didn't have to spend so much money on food
解析:选D细节理解题。根据第二段最后两句可知,食物价格上涨太快,于是大家都
希望能有一个像Hppy家那样的大花园,来节约买食物的钱。故选D。
2.For what purpose did Happy and Ben invite the neighbours to their garden
