Dad handed me a packet of sunflower seeds and a small shovel. “Plant them about an inch deep,” he said to me. I followed along, feeling the soil between my fingers, and soon we had a row of seeds waiting to sprout (发). Days passed, and nothing seemed to happen. I was about to lose hope, thinking the seeds were just a waste. But then, a soft voice came, “Be patient. Good things take time.” A week later, tiny green shoots came out of the soil. I was surprised and ran to show everyone. As the sunflowers grew taller, Dad taught me how to take good care of them. “Just like these plants, you also need care and love to grow,” he said. I began to understand how my parents support and care for me behind my growth. One night, the tallest sunflower broke because of the strong wind and heavy rain. I felt very upset. Sitting beside me, a warm voice said, “Sometimes, even the strongest can fall. But remember, they can still bloom, just a bit lower to the ground.” That day, I was encouraged to be patient and resilient (有韧性的). The sunflowers taught me that growth isn’t always easy. Just be strong when facing every challenge. 26. How did the writer feel when his father ask him to garden together? A. Excited. B. Uninterested. C. Surprised. D. Understanding. 27.
