　　Very often when I go to look at someone’s garden and they complain that for some reason it does not feel right to them. What I notice is that the design quite complicated. Or, sometimes there is no real design and the layout (布局) just looks messy. Creating a garden without some form of design is like trying to bake a cake without a recipe.

　　With a cake you can add together ingredients (原料) from the cupboard and fridge in the hope that the result will be a perfectly baked cake. Both creating a garden and baking a cake follow outlines for getting a result. Know just when to add something, when to take the mix off the heat or how much oil to use, etc.

　　An experienced garden designer can help you create a garden best suited to you and your lifestyle, rather than impose their own ideas on you. He will listen to and help draw out your ideas. By keeping the garden design simple you and your chosen designer will have created the structure of a garden, similar to the structure of a house together with some details.

　　A golden rule to remember is that garden design is not about choosing the right plants. Don’t get caught up in the idea that you have to choose the right plants for the job straight away. Plant choice comes almost at the last minute in many cases, after you and your designer have created style or feeling you are wanting to have in your garden.

　　Design is about creating a constructable (可構(gòu)造的) image for the garden, including form and shape, sounds, smells, even tastes and often, believe it or not, plants are never used. By keeping the design simple, especially if you are learning about design or taking on the project by yourself, you are increasing your chances of a successful design, one that matches your standard for your life.

　　2024高考訓(xùn)練題。閱讀理解閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)（A、B、C和D）中，選出最佳選項(xiàng)。

　　【題文】B

　　Never before in Chinese history has a documentary film aroused so much public enthusiasm. Everybody is talking about a new 7-part documentary called A Bite of China which was recently broadcast late at night on CCTV I. The documentary describes various gourmet items across the vast Chinese culinary (烹飪) landscape.

　　According to Taobao, China’s biggest online retail website, just five days after the series began to air, nearly 6 million people went to the site in search of various local specialities, particularly those mentioned in the documentary. More than 7.2 million deals were concluded. A ham producer from Yunnan Province saw his sales grow 17-fold in five days.

　　However, one can’t help but believe that the documentary’s popularity is probably linked to the endless stream of terrible food security issues that have emerged in recent years. In one well-received article, a netizen wrote, “I wonder how many felt so empty-hearted and sighed after watching the film .Formaldehyde(甲醛) sprayed cabbage, Sudan Red colored salty eggs, restaurants using gutter oil. The list is long…”

　　A varied and ancient food culture that is famous world-wide and which should have made the Chinese proud ends like this: one can only sigh. Food is the most vital thing in people’s lives. Yet China’s food industry is a typical description of “bad money driving out the good”. The market is huge while the cost of faking and cheating is so low for unscrupulous (不道德的) businessmen; and the punishment is too light. Take the milk industry as an example. Although Sanlu, the company that sold the melamine-adulterated milk powder, was punished, thousands of other dairies didn’t work hard to improve the quality. In order to allow national brands to survive, Chinese authorities are happy to loosen their regulations.

　　As the documentary shows, people are attracted not to gourmet items like matsutake, a species of rare mushroom grown naturally in remote forests, but to common Chinese dishes like barley, lotus root or tofu. They are what meet our basic needs. This explains why people are so excited about A Bite of China---it is a reminder that there is still a world out there where food is excellent and people have dignity.

　　1. The underlined word “gourmet items” probably means________.

　　A. beautiful clothes

　　B. latest technology

　　C. delicious food

　　D. great inventions

　　2. The second paragraph mainly talks about______.

　　A. the producer of the document

　　B. the content of the document

　　C. the history of Chinese gourmet

　　D. The popularity of the document

　　3. We can infer from what a netizen wrote in one well –received article that ______.

　　A. none of the television viewers have a knowledge of the Chinese food culture

　　B. there is a huge contrast between the ancient food culture and the reality

　　C. the price of food is too high for many common people

　　D. the documentary was made by a world-famous Chinese director

　　4. According to the passage, China’s food industry is full of faking and cheating because_____.

　　A. there are still so many poor people at the present time

　　B. the punishment for unscrupulous businessmen isn’t serious enough

　　C. the Chinese government encourages it to do so

　　D. the food technology is not so advanced as in developed countries

　　A classical guitarist was excited to hear from New York City police that his valuable guitar had been found. It disappeared almost a year ago when he got out of a cab and forgot to take the guitar with him. Laurence Lennon, 44, said he was running late that day. He was talking to his manager on his cell phone when he dashed out of the taxi. He said that he gave the driver $ 60 and told him to keep the change. He walked through the front doors of the concert hall still talking on the phone to his manager.

　　Upon discovering his loss, Lennon used his cell phone to call the police. The policewoman asked him for the name of the cab company, the number of the cab, and the name of the driver. He said that she had to be kidding.

　　She told Lennon that he could file a missing items report at the police station or online. Lennon asked for the online address. She told him that finding the guitar might take a couple of years—finding guitars was not as important as finding murderers and marijuana smokers. Then she told him to have a nice day.

　　“This year has been depressing，” said Lennon. “I had to postpone the recording of two new CDs. I've been using borrowed guitars. And I was losing hope of ever recovering my guitar.”

　　Lennon was reunited with his $ 100,000 musical instrument yesterday. The case and the guitar had been discovered in the corner of a coffee house only two blocks from where Lennon had lost it in the first place. Lennon had offered a $ 10,000 reward for its return. He said he would give the reward to the coffee house owner, who had informed the police.

　　1．It can be inferred from this reading passage that________.

　　A．Lennon gave the driver much more money than what was actually needed

　　B．Lennon couldn't give any useful information about the driver and his cab

　　C．Lennon was too busy talking to his friend to remember to pay the cab driver

　　D．Lennon used to work at the concert hall in New York City

　　答案：B　推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段第二句“The policewoman asked him for the name of the cab company...and the name of the driver. He said that she had to be kidding.”說(shuō)明他對(duì)出租汽車公司和司機(jī)的情況一概不知，認(rèn)為警察這樣問(wèn)他簡(jiǎn)直是在開(kāi)玩笑。．The policewoman told Lennon________.

　　A．not to worry about the guitar

　　B．to have a nice day in New York City

　　C．to find the cab driver and talk to him

　　D．to wait with patience

　　答案：D　推理判斷題。根據(jù)第三段第三句“...finding the guitar might take a couple of years.”說(shuō)明警察認(rèn)為尋找這把吉他會(huì)很難，大概需要幾年時(shí)間，因此他得耐心等待。選項(xiàng)A“不要著急這把吉他”不符合警察的本意和事實(shí)；B“祝他在紐約市玩得愉快”，原文中這是警察對(duì)他的安慰和祝福，不是事情的最重要內(nèi)容；C“去找出租車司機(jī)跟他談一下”這顯然不可能，只有D“耐心等待”符合警察的本意。．Which of the following is the most important according to the policewoman?

　　A．Finding a lost guitar. B．Finding the cab driver.

　　C．Finding murderers. D．Enjoying one's own life

　　答案：C　細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)第三段“...finding guitars was not as important as finding murderers....”說(shuō)明在警察看來(lái)尋找殺人犯比尋找吉他(當(dāng)然和其他任何事相比都)更重要。

　　．The underlined word“depressing”can be best explained by“________”．

　　A．making people feel sad

　　B．making people unfortunate

　　C．making people losing money

　　D．making people losing good luck

　　答案：A　詞義理解題。根據(jù)第四段第二句“I had to postpone the recording of two new CDs. I've been using borrowed guitars. And....”可推測(cè)出Lennon度過(guò)了一年很痛苦的日子，主要是丟掉了心愛(ài)的吉他和由于此事給他帶來(lái)的種種事業(yè)中的不順暢，因此可推測(cè)出depressing在這種的意思相當(dāng)于making people feel sad。
