I got this book as a birthday gift from my mother last month,and I enjoyed it so much that I have already read it twice.The story tells us about Mary,a poor ten-year-old girl.After losing her parents,she moves to her uncle's large house and often feels lonely.One day,she discovers a secret garden.There,Mary becomes friends with John 3 and his cousin Bob,who is weak and unable to walk.However,as they spend time in the garden surrounded by fresh air and natural beauty,Bob gradually becomes stronger and finally stands on his own feet.This wonderful story has taught me the importance of friendship,hope,and the healing power of nature.If you haven't read this book yet,I strongly recommend giving it a try! 第三节到此结束。听力测试到此结束，请同学们将答案转涂到答题卷上。
