新外研版高中英语必修一Unit 6 Developing ideas A Love of Gardening 热爱园艺 “If you look the right way, you can see that（宾从） the whole world is a garden.” These words come from the author of the book The Secret Garden, first published in 1911. At that time, only the very rich in Britain had gardens. Very soon after this, homes with gardens began to be built. This is what（表语从句） started the British love of gardening！Today, millions of Brits like to say that（宾从） they have “green fingers”, with around half the population spending their free time gardening. “如果欣赏的角度对了，你会发现整个世界就是一个花园。”《秘密花园》一书的作者曾这样说。这本书1911年首次出版。在当时的英国，只有富人才拥有花园。不久之后，人们开始建造带有花园的房子。英国人对园艺的热爱就此开始！如今，数百万的英国人喜欢说他们有“绿手指(意为擅长园艺)”，约有一半的英国人都把空闲时间用在打理花园上。 1) publish:v.出版 2) at that time:在那时 3) the very rich:富人 the+形容词表示一类人 4) begin to do:开始做某事 5) green fingers:高超的种植技能 6) population：n.人口，人口数；种群，种群数 7) spend+时间 (in) doing spend+钱 on sth. 8) free time:空闲时间 9) garden：v.做园艺工作，种植花草 For many people in the UK, their garden is their own private world. Each spring, children plant sunflowers and wait to see which one is the tallest（宾语从句）.Expert gardeners know just the right corner for roses, and others spend hours trying to grow perfect vegetables to enter into competitions. And while（让步状语从句） many Brits like nothing better than spending their Sunday cutting the grass, some are happy just to sit under the branches of the trees and enjoy the beauty of the world around them. 对于许多英国人来说，花园是他们的秘密世界。每年春天，孩子们种下向日葵，满怀期待地看谁种的长得最高。高明的园艺对于花园哪个角落最适合种植玫瑰了如指掌，其他人则大量时间力图种出最完美的蔬菜参加竞赛。虽然许多英国人认为除草是周日最棒的活动，但也有的人只要能坐在树下享受周围世界的美丽就心满意足了。 10) private:adj.私人的 private life私生活 in private私下地 11) sunflower:n.向日葵 12) wait to do:等待做某事 can’t wait to do迫不及待做某事 【书面表达】I can’t wait to share a piece of good news with you. 13) expert:n.专家 adj.专业的 be expert in/at擅长，在...方面是内行 14) try to do:尝试做某事 15) enter into competition:参加比赛 16) nothing better than:没有必...更好的了（否定词+比较级表达最高级含义） 17) branch n.树枝;分支，分公司；支流 But in cities, limited space has led to people looking for new solutions. Those without outside space can rent small pieces of land on which（定从） to grow things. Today, there are over 4,000 people in London waiting for such pieces of land. One recent idea has been to turn rooftops and walls into private gardens. These gardens have helped make the cities greener and improve air quality. 但在城市里，有限的空间促使人们寻找新的解决方案。住宅外部没有空间的居民可以租用小块土地种植作物。现如今，伦敦有四千多人在等待租用这样的土地。近期的一个理念是将屋顶和墙壁改造成私人花园。这些花园可以帮助绿化城市，改善空气质量。 18) limited:adj.有限的 19) lead to:导致；通向 20) look for:寻找 21) solution:n.解决办法 the solution to ...的解决办法 22) rent:v.租 23) wait for:等待 24) turn...into:把...变成 25) rooftop:n.屋顶 26) improve air quality:改善空气质量 As well as being good for the environment, gardening is also good for the soul. What other free-time activity allows you to be at one with nature and create more beautiful living things? And if you’re in any doubt about this, take a moment to reflect on this line from The Secret Garden: “Where you tend a rose... A thistle cannot grow.” 除了能改善环境，园艺还能净化心灵。还有什么其他业余活动能让你在享受自然的同时创造出更美丽的生物呢？如果你对此有任何疑问，请停下片刻，回味一下《秘密花园》中的这句话：“玫瑰生长的土地上没有蓟草。” 27) as well as:除了，以及 28) be good for:对...有好处 29) soul:n.灵魂，心灵 30) free-time activity:业余活动 31) allow sb. to do:允许某人做某事 32) be at one with nature:和自然和谐相处 33) in doubt:怀疑 34) take a moment:停一下 35) reflect on:反思 36) line:n.线；队列；台词 v. 沿……形成行（或列、排） in line with符合；与…一致 stand in line排队 37) tend:v.倾向，照顾 38) thistle:n.蓟 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
