         I am a people watcher, a trait magnified when I travel. On

         As Mrs Thompson stood in front of her 5th grade class on the very first day of school,
    she told the children a lie.Like most teachers,she looked at her students and said that she
    loved them all the same.
         But that was impossible,because there in the front row,slumped in his seat,was a little
    boy named Teddy Stoddard.Mrs Thompson noticed that he didn't play well with the other
    children,that his clothes were messy and that he constantly needed a bath.And Teddy could
    be unpleasant.It got to the point where Mrs Thompson would actually take delight in marking
    his papers with a broad red pen,making bold X's and then putting a big "F" at the top of his
    papers.
         However,when she reviewed his file,she got a surprise.
         Teddy's first grade teacher wrote,"Teddy is a bright child with a ready laugh.He does his
    work neatly and has good manners...he is a joy to be around."
         His second grade teacher wrote,"Teddy is an excellent student,well liked by his classmates
    ,but he is troubled because his mother has a terminal illness and life at home must be a struggle."
         His third grade teacher wrote,"His mother's death has been hard on him.He tries to do his
    best but his father doesn't show much interest and his home life will soon affect him if some
    steps aren't taken."
         Teddy's fourth grade teacher wrote,"Teddy is withdrawn and doesn't show much interest
    in school.He doesn't have many friends and sometimes sleeps in class."
         Now,Mrs Thompson was ashamed of herself and felt worse when her students brought
    her beautifully wrapped Christmas presents.Teddy's present,however,was clumsily wrapped
    in rough brown grocery paper.Taking her time she opened it to reveal Teddy's gifts,a rhinestone
    bracelet with stones missing and a quarter full perfume bottle.How the children laughed!"What
    a pretty bracelet!Mm,lovely perfume!Perfect on my wrist." The children were silent.
         Alone together,after school,Teddy told Mrs Thompson,"Today you smelled just like my
    Mom used to..." His teacher cried all night and,from that day,she stopped teaching reading,
    writing,and arithmetic and began to teach children instead.

         Cassandra Feeley finds it hard to manage on her husband's income. So this year she did something more
    than a hobby: She planted vegetables in her yard. For her fist garden, Ms. Feeley has put in 15 tomato plants,
    and five rows of a variety of vegetables. The family's old farm house has become a chicken bourse, its
    residents arriving next month. Last year, Ms. Rita Gartin kept a small garden. This year she has made it much
    larger because, she said, "The cost of everything is going up and I was looking to lose a few pounds too; so
    it's a win-win situation all around."
         They are among the growing number of Americans who, driven by higher living costs and a falling economy
    (经济), have taken up vegetable gardening for the first time. Others have increased the size of their existing
    gardens. Seed companies and garden shops say no since the 1970s have there been such an increase in interest
    in growing food at home. Now many gardens across the country hacek been sold out for several months. In
    Austin, Tex., some of the gardens have a three-year waiting list.
         George C. Ball Jr, owner of a company, said sales of vegetable seeds and plants are up by 40%, over last
    year, double the average growth of last five years. Mr. Ball argues that some of the reasons have been building
    for the last few years. The big one is striking use in me cost on food like bread and milk, together with the
    increases in the price of fruit and vegetables. Food prices have increase of higher oil price. People are driving
    less, taking fewer vacations, so there more time to garden.
    1. What does the word"residents" in Paragraph 1 probably refer to?
    A. chicken
    B. tomatoes
    C. gardens
    D. people
    2. Why is vegetable gardening becoming increasingly popular?
    A. More Americans are doing it for fun.
    B. The price of oil is lower than before.
    C. There's a growing need for fruits.
    D. The cost of living is on the rise.
    3. Which of the following might be the best title for the text?
    A. Family Food Planning
    B. Banking on Gardening
    C. A Belt-tightening Move
    D. Gardening as a Hobby
