A word belonging to one part of speech is extended to another part of speech. It is also called functional shift or zero derivation.47.lexical meaning VS grammatical meaning(词汇意义与语法意义)The meaning of a sentence is carried by the words proper as well as by the patterns of word order that is part of the grammatical system of a language. The part of the sentence meaning contributed by words is called the lexical meaning and the part of sentence meaning that depends upon the way the words are put together is called grammatical meaning, in which the function words and the word order play a very important role.48.paralinguistic meaning VS non-linguistic meaning (副语言意义与非语言意义)In human communication, apart from the linguistic meaning conveyed by language itself,there are numerous paralinguistic meanings and non-linguistic meanings that are perceived simultaneously by the hearer. Paralinguistic meanings are those attached to the verbal expressions by quality of voice,tempo of speech,posture,facial expression and gestures. Non-linguistic meanings are thoseindicated by non-verbal noises such as cough, sigh, tongue-clicking, various kinds of body languages and different contexts of situation.49.denotation VS connotation (外延与内涵)Denotation is a straightforward, literal meaning of the word every member of the language speaking community will agree on. Connotation is not the basic meaing of the word but some emotive or evaluative meaings associated with the word by individual language users in their mind.50.linguistic relativity VS linguistic determinism (语言相对论与语言决定论)The Sapir-Wholf Hypothesis states that there is a systematic relationship between the grammatical categories of the language a person speaks and how that person both understands the world and behaves in it. It boils down to two principles: linguistic relativity and linguistic determinism.Linguistic relativity states that disctinctions encoded in one language are unique to that langage alone, and that there is no limit to the structural diversity of languages.Linguistic determinism refers to the idea that the language we use determines, to some extent, the way in which we view and think about the world around us. This concept has two versions; strongdeterminism and weak determinism. The strong version, which has few followers today, holds that language actually determines thought, whereas that weak version, which is widely accepted today, merely holds that language affects thought.。

从句法语义角度阐释“花园小径现象”形成原因

从句法\语义角度阐释“花园小径现象”形成原因作者：王新周来源：《文教资料》2009年第36期摘要: “花园小径现象”(garden path phenomenon)是语言处理过程中的一种特殊的局部歧义现象,这类句子虽然完全合乎语法规律,但极其难以处理。

因为这类句子总是会导致句子分析者不由自主地沿着错误的方向分析这类句子结构。

这是一种有趣的现象,已经引起了语言学家和心理学家的广泛关注和探讨。

关键词: “花园小径现象”含义句法语义一、“花园小径现象”的含义我们先来看下面这个经典的花园小径句:①The horse raced past the barn fell.这个句子虽然合乎语法,但我们却几乎不可能理解它,因为当我们读该句时,首先会建立起The horse raced past the barn这样一个句法结构,其中“raced”作为该句的主动词。

但当我们看到“fell”一词时,便会惊奇地发现我们已经建立起来的这个句子结构根本没有多余的空间来接纳fell 这个词,我们只好回过头来重新审视分析这个句子。

在正确的句子解读中,fell才是该句的主动词,而“raced past the barn”是一个附加在名词“horse”后经过省略的定语从句,这种现象便是“花园小径现象”。

花园小径现象(garden path phenomenon)最早由心理语言学家T.G.Bever在The Cognitive Basis for Linguistic Structures一文中提出,并对其定义进行了界定:“对一个句子按常规方式理解,直到句子后面才发现理解有误,然后回到分叉点对输入的语言重新进行处理,采用非常规的方式才能达到理解的目的。

”冯志伟和许福吉(2003)对这种语言现象给出了非常形象的描述:“正如我们走进一个风景如画的花园,要寻找这个花园的出口,大多数人都认为出口一定应该在花园的主要路径的末端,因此可以信步沿着主要路径自然而然地、悠然自得地走向花园的出口,正当我们沿着花园中的主要路径欣赏花园中的美景而心旷神怡的时候,突然发现这条主要路径是错的,它并不通向花园的出口,而能够通向花园出口的正确的路径,却是在主要路径旁边的另一条几乎被游人遗忘的毫不起眼的荒僻的幽径。

花园小径

Conclusion
花园路径句是一种复杂的语言现象,引起了心理语言学家、句法学家、认知语用学家的关注,他们都对这种现象做出了不同的解释,帮助我们了解人类语言的内在规律, 对语言学习和语言理解产生了深远的影响。但是现在的研究缺乏定量和定性研究相结合,许多深层问题还有待于通过实证的方法来解决。

New Trend : the ultimate representation of reanalysis of garden path sentences.
• Basing on the experiment data on native English speakers, some scholars (Ferreira, 2003; Christianson, 2001) found evidence that under some conditions, even after reanalysis took place, parsers failed to produce accurate interpretations consistent.
• In China:
蒋祖康对花园路径句现象进行了部分的综述。徐章宏、黄碧蓉等从关联理论的角度研究了花园路径句的认知过程。冯志伟、许福吉,韩玉花研究了汉语中的“花园路径现象” 晏小琴通过有声思维和回顾访谈的形式探讨了在不限时的自然状态下加工三种不同类型的花园路径句过程中所遭遇的困难、歧义句解歧程度和重新分析的难易度问题。吴红岩探讨了利用优选句法理论来解释花园路径句。刘国辉、石锡书从特殊思维激活图式理论来阐释这一语言现象。
The syntactic features
• First, garden path sentences were temporarily ambiguous. • Second, parsers had uneven preferences for the possible interpretations of the ambiguous region. • However, it was always the interpretation that they were most reluctant to accept that turned out to be the only one consistent with the true content of the sentence.

garden path sentence语言学

garden path sentence语言学摘要：1.引言：花园小径句的定义和例子2.花园小径句的成因及其在语言学中的重要性3.花园小径句的分类及特点4.应对花园小径句的策略5.结论：花园小径句对语言学习者的启示正文：花园小径句（Garden Path Sentence）是指一种特殊的句子结构，它在一定程度上违反了语法规则，使得听话者在理解过程中需要经历一个从错误解读到正确解读的转变。

这种现象在语言学领域具有很高的研究价值，因为它揭示了人类语言处理过程中的认知机制。

花园小径句的成因主要与语言的多样性和复杂性有关。

在英语中，一词多义和语法规则的灵活性使得句子结构可能出现歧义。

例如，句子“I am going to go and do some shopping”中的“going to”就可以理解为“打算去”，也可以理解为“正在去”。

这种歧义性使得听话者在理解句子时需要根据语境和常识进行判断。

根据句子的结构和意义，花园小径句可以分为两类：一是歧义句，如上述的“I am going to go and do some shopping”；二是局部歧义句，如“She loved the cake so much that she offered me a piece”。

对于这类句子，听话者需要在理解过程中对句子进行重新解析，以找到正确的解读。

在面对花园小径句时，有以下几点策略可以帮助我们更好地理解：1.充分了解语境。

理解花园小径句的关键在于把握语境，通过语境来判断句子的真实含义。

2.熟悉一词多义现象。

在英语中，很多单词具有多个含义，这可能导致句子理解出现偏差。

因此，掌握词汇的多种意义对于解决花园小径句非常重要。

3.了解句子结构。

分析句子的成分和关系，有助于找出句子中的歧义点，从而正确理解整个句子。

4.培养跨文化交际能力。

不同文化背景下的语言表达和理解方式存在差异，掌握这些差异有助于避免花园小径句理解错误。

garden path sentence语言学

目录一、引言二、什么是garden path sentence三、为什么会出现garden path sentence四、garden path sentence的语法结构五、garden path sentence的影响六、如何避免garden path sentence七、结语一、引言在日常的语言交流中，我们常常会遇到一些复杂的句子结构，有时候甚至会让人产生误解或者困惑。

这种句子结构在语言学上被称为"garden path sentence"，它对我们理解语言的方式和思维方式产生了一定的影响。

本文将从语言学的角度探讨garden path sentence 的定义、原因、结构和影响，并探讨如何避免出现这种句子结构。

二、什么是garden path sentence让我们先来了解一下garden path sentence是什么。

在语言学中，garden path sentence指的是那些具有迷惑性的句子结构，它们看起来似乎是符合语法规则的，但在理解时会让人产生错误的解读。

这种句子结构会让读者或听者在理解时走上一条“曲径”，导致最终的理解与原意不符。

举个例子，"The old man the boats"就是一个经典的garden path sentence。

在这个句子中，由于"old man"和"the boats"之间没有明显的语法指示词，"man"和"the boats"之间的关系不是很清晰，容易让人误解。

这种句子结构会让我们在理解时走上一个看似正确但实际上是错误的路线，从而产生误解。

三、为什么会出现garden path sentence那么，为什么会出现garden path sentence呢？这主要是因为语言的歧义性和多义性导致的。

在语言中，很多词语有多种含义，而同一个词语在不同的语境中可能会有不同的解释。

4.2 “The horse raced past the barn fell.”这个句子在开始时可能会被误解为“赛马从谷仓旁边跑过。

”然而，正确的解释应该是“在谷仓旁边跌倒的马”。

4.3 “The complex houses married and single soldiers and their families.”这个句子开始时可能会被误解为“复杂的房子里住着已婚和单身士兵及其家人”。

探究英语中“花园小径”现象

探究英语中“花园小径”现象作者：马志娟来源：《科教导刊·电子版》2013年第11期摘要“花园小径”现象作为语言处理中的特殊语言歧义，在整体上并不存在歧义，只有一种正确解读，因此本文倾向于将其定义为认知主体在信息处理过程中的一种误读。

本文从句法、语义与语用三个方面来实例分析英语中的“花园小径”现象以便排除“花园小径”句中的歧义。

关键词“花园小径”现象暂时性歧义归因分析中图分类号：H314.3 文献标识码：A歧义作为语言中的经常性问题，是一个词语或语句在使用中产生了两种及其以上的含义，造成意义上的模糊不清。

从心理学角度来看，在语言理解过程中存在着两种典型歧义（刘国辉，石锡书，2005）：一类是永久性歧义，如 Mary saw the man with binoculars through the telescope.另一类是暂时性歧义，研究者形象地称之为“花园小径”现象（Garden Path phenomenon，简称GP），如 The girl told the story cried.蒋祖康（2000）将此种语言现象描述为“就像在花园中走错了路，折回头再寻路径”。

1“花园小径”现状研究“花园小径”现象是语言处理过程中出现的一种特殊的语言歧义现象，多数研究者认为是“局部歧义”（蒋祖康，2000），也有部分研究者认为是“非局部歧义”（杜家利，2006）。

由于“花园小径”句在整体上并不存在歧义，只有一种正确解读，因此本文倾向于将“花园小径”现象定义为认知主体在信息处理过程中的一种误读。

自20世纪70年代以来，英语中“花园小径”现象引起了心理语言学家及语法学家的广泛关注。

早期的学者，如Bever（1970），Kimball（1973）主要从认知和心理语言学的角度进行探讨。

20世纪80年代起，Pritchett，Weinberg Frazier 和Clifton， Sturt 和Crocker（蒋祖康，2000）等学者多将语法分析与功能结构解析相结合，从语法角度成功地解决了心理语言学难以破解的问题。

花园幽径句初探-COLIPS

花园幽径句初探(revised)冯志伟教育部语言文字应用研究所北京朝内南小街51号100010 北京，中国许福吉新加坡南洋理工大学1. 英语中的花园幽径句(Garden path sentence in English):1970年，T.G. Bever在<The cognitive basis for linguistic structures> (见J. R.Hayes 编辑的<Cognition and Development of Language>, pp279-352, Wiley, New York)中指出，在英语中存在一种叫做“花园幽径句”(garden path sentence)的特别句子。

例如，“The horse raced past the barn fell”（跑过饲料房的马倒下了）这个句子，当我们读到前一段. “The horse raced past the barn”（马跑过了饲料房）的时候，绝大多数人都以为这已经是一个完整的句子了，raced作为主要动词，是句子的谓语，只有极少数的人，才会想到raced还可能作为horse的定语，修饰名词horse，但是，当我们往下读，读到另外一个动词fell的时候，才突然恍然大悟，raced原来并不是句子中的主要动词，它是修饰名词horse 的，而最后读到的fell才是这个句子中的主要动词。

对于前一段句子，大多数人原来认为是正确的理解最后却是错误的，而少数人原来被认为可能是错误的理解最后却是正确的。

我们理解这样的句子的过程真是一波三折，道路极为坎坷。

我们在理解这个句子的时候，正如我们走进一个风景如画的花园，要寻找这个花园的出口，大多数人都认为出口一定应该在花园的主要路径的末端，因此可以信步沿着主要路径自然而然地、悠然自得地走向花园的出口，正当我们沿着花园中的主要路径欣赏花园中的美景而心旷神怡的时候，突然发现这条主要路径是错的，它并不通向花园的出口，而能够通向花园出口的正确的路径，却是在主要路径旁边的另一条被几乎游人遗忘的毫不起眼的荒僻的幽径。

这种现象被很形象地称之为“花园路径现象”，就像在花园中走错了道，折回头再寻路径。

一般认为，这类歧义现象会对语言的处理过程造成较大的困难。

2. ostensive communication明示交际 :Communication is not simply a matter of encoding and decoding, it also involves inference. They maintain that inference has only to do with the hearer. From the speaker’s side, communication should be seen as an act of making clear one’s intention to express something. This is called ostensive act. A complete characterization of communication is that it is ostensive-inferential(明示-推理).3. the cohort theory (集群理论)6:hypothesizes that auditory word recognition begins with the formation of a group of words at the perception of the initial sound and proceeds sound by sound with the cohort of words decreasing as more sounds are perceived.3.Arbitrariness任意性The form of linguistic signs bear no natural relationship to their meaning.4.Morpheme:the smallest unit of language in regard to the relationship between sounding and meaning, a unit that cannot be divided into further smaller units without destroying or drastically altering the meaning.（就发音与意义之间的关系来看，语素是语言的最小单位，不能在进一步分成更小的单位，否则就会破坏或彻底改变词汇意义或语法意义。

garden path sentence语言学

garden path sentence语言学花园路径句是一种句子结构，它在开始时会引导读者进入错误的理解，随后要求他们进行修正。

这种句式在语言学中被广泛研究和讨论，因为它揭示了人们在语言理解中的认知过程和语法结构的复杂性。

在本文中，将对花园路径句进行详细介绍，包括其定义、产生原因、分类和影响等方面进行探讨。

此外，还将讨论花园路径句在实际语言使用中的一些例子，并探讨它对语言理解的影响。

首先，花园路径句是一种经典的语言现象，它旨在测试读者的语言理解能力和反应时间。

这种句子通常由一系列修饰词和从属分句组成，使得读者在初次阅读时会误解整个句子的含义，直到遇到矛盾或不符合预期的部分，然后再进行修正。

换句话说，花园路径句是一种具有迷惑性的句子结构，需要读者通过解析和理解句子的各个组成部分来纠正初始的错误理解。

花园路径句的产生主要与语法结构和语言处理有关。

在语法结构方面，这些句子通常涉及到复杂的修饰、嵌套从句或意外的词序，使得读者在阅读时会有困惑或误解的倾向。

而在语言处理方面，花园路径句要求读者从句子的表面结构中推测出其真正的含义，并在遇到不一致的信息时进行修正。

这种修正过程涉及到大脑的语言处理和推理能力，因此也吸引了很多认知科学家和心理学家的研究兴趣。

花园路径句可以被分为不同的类型，根据其产生错误理解的方式和修正方式。

其中最常见的类型是歧义句，它们通过词语、短语或句子的歧义性来引导读者的错误理解。

例如，“时间过得飞快”这句话在最初读到时，会让人误解为时间是以一种飞快的方式过去的，而实际上该句的意思是时间过得很快。

另一种类型是陈述句变问句，这些句子在结构上与陈述句相似，但读者需要注意到其中一个关键词的变化，才能理解其实际意义。

例如，“郭敬明也没有女朋友吧？”这句话在最初读到时，会误导读者认为郭敬明有女朋友，但实际上该句的意思是否定的。

花园路径句对语言理解和认知过程有重要影响。

首先，它揭示了人们在语言理解中的认知困境和处理复杂结构的能力。

英汉语中的“花园路径现象”

英汉语中的“花园路径现象”徐艳红【摘要】"Garden path phenomenon" is a kind of ges, which is interpreted as a phenomenon of partial special phenomenon in the ambiguity by linguists and process ot parsing langua- psychologists. There exist lots of such phenomena in English and Chinese, and the process of interpreting such ambiguous structures resembles searching for paths in gardens in that listeners have to make choices between alternative mean- ings by reanalyzing different ambiguous results. "Garden path phenomenon "is a complicate linguistic phenomenon ; thus, we can interpret such a phenomenon from syhtactic, semantic and pragmatic aspects.%“花园路径现象”是语言处理过程中的一种特殊现象，语言学家和心理学家们将其解释为局部歧义现象。

英语和汉语中都存在这种现象，听话者在理解过程中，如同在花园中寻路，经过重新分析不同的歧义结果选择合理的解释。

“花园路径现象”是一种复杂的语言现象，可以从句法、语义和语用等方面对其进行理解。

garden path sentence语言学

Garden Path SentenceIntroductionGarden Path Sentence is a linguistic phenomenon that involves sentences that initially appear to have a straightforward structure but lead the reader or listener astray, forcing them to reinterpret the sentence in order to understand its true meaning. These sentences challenge our understanding of grammar and syntax, highlighting the complexities of language processing.In this article, we will explore the concept of garden path sentences, their characteristics, and their significance in linguistics. We will also discuss some famous examples and delve into the cognitive processes involved in deciphering these sentences.Characteristics of Garden Path SentencesGarden path sentences are known for their ability to mislead readers or listeners due to their ambiguous or misleading structure. They often contain words or phrases that can be interpreted in multiple ways, leading individuals down an incorrect syntactic path before realizing the intended meaning.Here are some key characteristics of garden path sentences:1.Initial Misinterpretation: The sentence begins with a structurethat initially seems grammatically correct but later turns out to be incorrect.2.Syntactic Ambiguity: The sentence contains words or phrases thatcan be parsed differently, leading to multiple possibleinterpretations.3.Reanalysis: Upon realizing the misinterpretation, the reader orlistener must reanalyze and reinterpret the sentence to understand its intended meaning.4.Processing Difficulty: Garden path sentences create processingdifficulties as they require more cognitive effort to decode dueto their misleading structure.Examples of Garden Path SentencesLet’s explore some famous examples of garden path sentences:1.“The old man the boat.”This sentence initially suggests that an old man is performing anaction on a boat. However, upon reanalysis, we realize that “old”is an adjective describing “man,” and “the boat” is actuallythe direct object of the sentence.2.“The horse raced past the barn fell.”This sentence leads us to believe that the horse raced past thebarn, but upon further analysis, we understand that “raced” is averb and “past the barn” is a prepositional phrase modifying“the horse.” Therefore, the sentence means that the horse thatwas raced fell.3.“The complex houses married and single soldiers and theirfamilies.”Initially, this sentence seems to suggest that the complex housesboth married soldiers and single soldiers along with theirfamilies. However, upon reevaluation, we understand that “complex”is a noun meaning a housing complex or building.Cognitive Processes InvolvedGarden path sentences challenge our cognitive processes as we navigate through their misleading structure. Understanding these sentencesrequires us to engage in several cognitive processes:1.Parsing: Parsing involves breaking down a sentence into itsgrammatical components. Garden path sentences disrupt this processby presenting ambiguous or misleading structures.2.Working Memory: Decoding garden path sentences requires holdingmultiple interpretations in working memory until the correctinterpretation is determined.3.Reanalysis: When faced with a misinterpretation, reanalysisinvolves revisiting and reevaluating previous assumptions toarrive at the intended meaning.4.Top-down Processing: Top-down processing involves utilizingcontext and prior knowledge to aid in sentence comprehension.Garden path sentences challenge top-down processing as they candeceive even individuals with extensive language knowledge.Significance in LinguisticsGarden path sentences have significant implications for linguistic research and our understanding of language processing:1.Syntax and Grammar: Garden path sentences reveal the intricaciesof syntax and grammar by highlighting potential pitfalls inparsing and interpreting sentences.nguage Processing: The study of garden path sentences providesinsights into how humans process language, including parsingstrategies, cognitive load management, and reanalysis mechanisms. putational Linguistics: Understanding garden path sentencesaids in developing computational models for natural languageprocessing tasks, such as machine translation and speechrecognition.ConclusionGarden path sentences serve as intriguing linguistic puzzles that challenge our understanding of grammar and language processing. By presenting misleading structures, these sentences force us to reevaluate our initial interpretations and engage in complex cognitive processes.Understanding garden path sentences contributes to our knowledge of syntax, grammar, and language comprehension. Moreover, their study has practical applications in computational linguistics. As we continue to explore the complexities of language, garden path sentences will remain an intriguing area of research for linguists and cognitive scientists alike.。

英语中的花园路径句及其解读

英语中的花园路径句及其解读曾淑萍【摘要】英语中存在一类特殊而有趣的句子——花园路径句.读者们常常不由自主地沿着错误的方向解读这类句子,直至出现语义短路,他们才按非常规方式重新去解读.本文拟从词汇、句法、语用三个层面分析英语花园路径句形成的原因,并结合实例探讨这类句子的正确解读方法.希望有助于增强英语学习者对花园路径句的敏感性,注重词汇积累,熟练掌握句法结构,从而正确解读花园路径句.【期刊名称】《齐齐哈尔大学学报（哲学社会科学版）》【年(卷),期】2016(000)004【总页数】3页(P139-140,143)【关键词】花园路径句;词汇;句法;语用;解读【作者】曾淑萍【作者单位】福州外语外贸学院英语系,福建福州350202【正文语种】中文【中图分类】H314花园路径句(garden-path sentence简称GP sentence)是20世纪70年代初期由心理语言学家T. G. Bever在The Cognitive Basis for Linguistic Structures 一文中提出的。

它是一种特殊而又复杂的局部歧义现象：人们在理解句子时，按常规方式会产生某种理解，直到句末出现新的信息时，才发现这种理解有误，于是回过头去对输入的语言重新进行处理，最后得到实际的语义，达到理解的目的。

[1]花园路径句给许多英语学习者造成了语言理解上的困难，归纳起来主要源于三个方面：词汇、句法和语用。

英语中不少单词同时具有不同词性且一词多义的现象比较普遍。

人们对句子中主要词汇的理解，往往都是选择其最常用的词性和词义，对较不常用的词性和词义则本能地过滤，而当实际词性和词义与最常用的词性和词义相悖时，人们对句子的理解就会出现“语义短路”，而不得不中途折返。

例 1 Fat people eat accumulates.看到这个句子，大多数人会把“fat”看作是形容词，在句中修饰people，意为“肥胖的人”，即人们潜意识地选择了“fat”的最常用词性以及最常用的义项，但是当人们往后读时，就会发现整个句子的意思无法理解，于是不得不重新分析句子。

2023年高考英语外刊时文精读精练 (9)World in a dish: The garden path盘中知世界：花园小径主题语境：人与自我主题语境内容：健康的生活方式【外刊原文】（斜体单词为超纲词汇，认识即可；下划线单词为课标词汇，需熟记。

）IMAGINE A plate holding two strawberries, identical in appearance. One came out of a supermarket box, meaning it was probably harvested when it was still not ripe, immediately placed in a forced-air cooling unit, loaded onto a truck and driven hundreds of miles. By the time it reached the plate it may have been picked for two weeks. The other strawberry was picked from a garden minutes before being eaten.The first one will probably taste like a slightly mushy(软踏踏的) cucumber withstrong sour flavors. The second is likely to be sweet; the flavour will linger in the mouth, as the scent(香味) will on thehands.Supermarket strawberries are not entirely without advantages: they are convenient and available in the northern hemisphere(半球) in February. But the two berries differ from each other in the same way that hearing Bach’s Mass in B Minor in a concert hall differs from listening to it ona cassette(磁带). The home-grown fruit is an eatable case for cultivating a home garden.Your columnist argued gardening a twee(矫揉造作的) waste of time. Planting cool-weather greens, as gardeners across the north-east of America are now doing, can seem make no sense. Convenient, continuous well-stocked supermarket shelves are available all week, in manyplaces supplemented on weekends by farmers’ markets. But the same could be said of cooking: cheap and good restaurants around, so why bother to make your own meals?That attitude misunderstands the ultimate appeal of gardening: it mistakes the product for the purpose. It is true that a garden can yield peas that taste like the vibrant(生机勃勃的), greenspring; tomatoes and carrots of incomparable sweetness; lettuces and herbs that taste like themselves rather than the plastic they are usually packaged in; and potatoes with richness of earth itself. Growing your own vegetable ensuresa reliable supply.On the other hand ,a garden, especially in the early years, can also yield little but frustration. Beginners may plant the wrong crops for their soil. Squirrels have a habit of taking single bites of cucumbers, beans and tomatoes, then leaving the rest on the vine to rot(腐烂). And even expert gardeners can lose a season’s harvest to un co operative weather.No matter. The real joy of gardening is the time spent doing it. Thedeepest pleasure—as with cooking, writing, bringing up children or almost anything worthwhile—is in the work itself. Agardener’s memories revolve not around the food produced, but around long summer afternoons with hands in the dirt, surrounded by family, if the garden is at home, or deepening acquaintances with friends and neighbours in acommunity garden. To garden is to patiently, lovinglyand diligently help life flourish, in the ground and above it.【课标词汇】1.identical完全相同的；极为相似的I've got three identical blue suits.我有三套完全相同的蓝色西装。
