教材原文
When I first look at this picture, it seems to be just a pretty simple drawing of a man in a garden. However, when looking at it more closely, I see something interesting.
In the picture, a man is wearing a hat and an apron, and is carrying an umbrella because it is raining heavily.[1] He has his back turned to us. We can see he is in his garden, for he is watering the flowers with a watering can[2]. The drawing is entitled “It’s Time to Water the Flowers”.
This implies that this man obviously① loves routines (and his flowers), and probably waters his flowers every day at the same time. He is doing this even though it is raining heavily. However, the plants don’t need the extra water he is providing[3]. He is not seeing the obvious, but is just going through the motions without thinking.
The overall message we can take from this picture is that it is important to have routines and timetables, as they can help us stay organised, but sometimes routines can control us, rather than us controlling the routines.[4]It is important not to become too preoccupied with② routines and
schedules, because they can make us blind to③ what
is in front of us. Sometimes we need to be flexible and
adapt to changing circumstances.

学语言
一、句式美
[1]第二个and连接两个并列谓语;because引导原因状语从句。
[2]for为并列连词,表原因,是对主句的补充说明。
[3]he is providing是省略关系代词that/which的定语从句。
[4]that引导表语从句;as引导原因状语从句,是对上一句的解释说明;but连接并列句,为转折关系,其后内容为主要内容。
二、词汇美
①obviously 的使用使推测更具有说服性。
②be/become preoccupied with “全神贯注于。”
③be blind to “对……视而不见,对……视若无睹”,和主句中的become preoccupied with相呼应。
