Longji Rice Terraces
Imagine mountains 1 (warp) in silver water, 2 (shine) in the spring sun. Summer sees the mountains turn bright green with growing rice. During autumn, these same mountains are gold, and in winter they 3 (cover) in sheets of white frost. These are the 4 (colour)of the Longji Rice Terraces.
These terraces 5 (build) by the local Zhuang and Yao people, to whom Guangxi is home. Starting in the Yuan Dynasty, work on the terraces took hundreds of years, until its completion in the early Qing Dynasty. Reaching 6 (目之所及) these terraces cover tall mountains, often from 7 (从顶部到最顶端).
So why did these people 8 (竭尽所能做某事)turn the entire mountains into terraces? Firstly, there are few large, flat areas of land in the region. 9 (build) the terraces therefore meant that they could increase the areas in which they could grow rice. Secondly, although the region has 10 (大量的)rain, the mountains are steep and the soil is shallow. The flat terraces 11 (汲取雨水)and 12 (防止土壤被冲刷掉).

9. Building 10. plenty of 11. catch the rainwater 12. prevent the soil from being washed away
But perhaps 1 (最重要的是) is the way in which people have worked in harmony with nature 2 (make)these terraces and grow rice. The terraces are cleverly designed, with hundreds of waterways that 3 (与……相连接)each other. During the rainy season, it is along these waterways that rainwater moves down the mountains and into the terraces. The sun heats the water and turns it 4 vapour.This forms clouds from which rain falls down onto the mountain terraces once again. These terraces also provide a perfect environment 5 birds and fish, some of 6 feed on insects that can harm the rice crops.
Although modern technology could help produce more crops, these terraces still mean a lot to the people for whom traditions hold much value. This knowledge 7 (pass down) through families, which means that 8 (新一代人)continue to use ancient methods of agriculture to maintain the terraces. Today, the Longji Rice Terraces attract thousands of visitors 9 come to admire this great wonder created by people and nature working together.
1. what is most significant 2. to make 3.connect with 4. into 5. for 6. which 7. is passed down

A Love of Gardening
“If you look the right way, you can see that the whole world is garden.” These words come from the author of the book The Secret Garden, first (publish) 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
started the British love of gardening!Today, millions of Brits like to say that they have (擅长园艺), with around half the population (spend)their free time (garden).
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 (tall).Expert gardeners know just the right corner for roses, and others spend hours trying to grow perfect vegetables to (参与竞赛). And while many Brits (再喜欢不过)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.

But in cities, limited space has led to people (寻找) new solutions. Those without outside space can rent small pieces of land on which to grow things. Today, there are over 4,000 people in London (wait) 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 (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 (对……感到惬意自在)nature and create more beautiful living things? And if you’re (怀疑)about this, take a moment to (思考)this line from The Secret Garden: “Where you tend a rose... A thistle cannot grow.”
