17、 15 小题，每小题小题，每小题 1 分，满分分，满分 15 分分) A Hello, this is your gardening adviser. Now, just as our gardens are at their most colorful and most productive time, what do we do? Well go off on holiday. What I suggest you do is this: invite a friend or neighbor to help you. You can ask him to water the plants
18、 in the greenhouse until you return, but first make sure that he knows how to do it. What he should not do is throw water over the leaves of the plants themselves, because if he does that, it will invite diseases. Also for the same reason, ask him if he can possibly water in the morning, not in the
19、evening. If you havent got a greenhouse, there is one safe and easy way to keep the plants well when you are away, and this is how you do it.

20、flower pots to stand on the wet paper, go off holiday, and they should be alive and well when you return in two weekstime. Thank you for calling. Goodbye and good gardening! 31.

23、ol today. Can she come over tomorrow?” Donna was a shy girl and I wanted her to make some friends to bring her out of her shell. “Sure, honey, that sounds great.” I said, thinking back to my own best friend, Lillian. We lived across the street from each other in Washington Heights, New York. We met
24、at the age of 10, too. Like my daughter, I was shy, but Lillian drew me out. She was one of the friendliest people in school, with shiny black hair and a mile-wide smile. In senior high school, Lillian went on a trip to Florida. This was the first time we had to be away from each other for a few day
25、s. “Ill be back soon,” she told me. But three days later, Lillians sister told me that she had fallen into a river and hadnt come out any more. Soon, my family moved to New Jersey. Whenever I thought of her, tears came into my eyes. The next day Donna brought her new friend home. “Hi, Mrs. Loggia.”
26、the little girl said. Her hair was so shiny and black and she shot me a big smile. “My name is Laura.” My daughters new friend was so much like Lillian.

31、h. Because of her Chinese English, she was often treated unfairly. People in department stores, at banks, and at restaurants did not take her seriously, did not give her good service (服务) pretended not to understand her, or even acted as if they did not hear her. My mother realized that she was poor
32、 at English. When I was fifteen, she used to have me call people on phone to pretend I was she. She made me ask for information or even to shout at people who had been rude to her.

35、here red-faced, my mother, the real Mrs. Tan, was shouting to his boss in her broken English. When I was a teenager, my mothers broken English embarrassed (令人尴尬) me. But now, I see it differently.
