A
My Garden
--—--by Nelson Mandela
In early 1977，the authorities （当局) announced the physical labour and arranged some kind of work for us to do in the courtyard. The free time also allowed me to hunt what became two of my favorite hobbies in Robben Island-——gardening and tennis.
To survive in prison，one must develop ways to take satisfaction in one’s daily life。

One can feel fulfilled (充实) by washing one's clothes so that they are particularly clean。

Just as one takes pride in important tasks outside of prison，one can find the same pride in doing small things inside prison。

Almost from the beginning of my sentence on Robben Island, I asked the authorities for permission to start a garden in the courtyard. For years, they refused without offering a reason。

But finally they gave in，and we were able to cut out a small garden in the prison.
The soil in the courtyard was dry and rocky。

In order to start my garden, I had to remove a great many rocks to allow the plant room to grow。

The authorities supplied me with seeds。

At first，I planned tomatoes and onions, because these plants did not require rich earth or constant care。

The early harvests were poor, but they soon improved。

I began to order books on gardening. I studied different gardening techniques and types of fertilizers （肥料）。

For a time，I tried to grow peanuts，and used different soils and fertilizers，but finally I gave up。

It was one of my few failures。

A garden was one of the few things in prison that one could control. The processes of planting a seed, watching it grow，taking care of it and then harvesting it offered a simple but long-lasting satisfaction. The sense of being the owner of the small patch of earth offered a small taste of freedom。

【小题1】Mandela’s hobbies on Robben Island wer e ____。

A. hunting and physical labour
B. gardening and tennis
C。

washing his clothes
D. gardening techniques and types of fertilizers
【小题2】When did Mandela ask the prison authorities for the permission to start a small garden?
A。

Soon after 1997。

B。

Some time in early 1977.
C. Almost as soon as he went to prison there.
D。

Long after he went to prison there。

【小题3】Why did Mandela wash his clothes especially clean although he was in prison?
A. To show he could do it as well as others.
B. To get some sense of pride and satisfaction from it.
C。

To show others that he preferred to be clean.
D. To gain the authorities’ permission to start a garden。

【小题4】Hard as he tried, he failed ____ at last。

A. to get a sense of satisfaction and freedom
B。

to grow tomatoes and onions
C. to grow peanuts
D。

to get the same pride inside prison。

Global financial big dogs are no match for China’s "Da Ma", or housewives，who have crowded into gold stores across China，buying up 300 tons of gold over the past two weeks。

No wonder gold prices have steadied after taking a dive。

During the May Day holiday，gold stores were crowded with mostly female customers. Most of them are middle—aged ”Chinese housewives”。

This group of buyers has risen to fame recently. They are big spenders and are desperate to get their hands on a bargain。

”I bought some gold jewellery and kept them as a gift for my son when he gets married，" said a buyer from Shanghai。

The gold business is skyrocketing. ”Our sales are growing by the day. Yesterday we sold more than ten million yuan of gold products,” a gold store salesperson said. The gold rush in China started about two weeks ago thanks to a decline in global gold prices。

Media reports suggest that Chinese housewives have spent about 100 billion yuan，or about 16 billion US dollars，purchasing 300 tons of gold since mid—April. That has helped support gold prices.
”Gold prices depressed since the middle of last month but have risen gradually。

That is mainly due to the strong demand from Asian markets,” said foreign trader Zhang Chen from Industrial & Commercial Bank of China。

”Some people even joked that Chinese housewives have beaten Wall Street analysts.” For Chinese people, with limited investment options，the only thing better than buying gold is buying gold at discount prices.
【小题1】What does the author mean by the underlined sentence of the first paragraph？
A．The global big dogs can’t match with Chinese housewives.
B．China’s "Da Ma" help a lot to support the global economic crisis。

C．Chinese housewives spend a great deal of money on gold。

D．Chinese housewives have a better consumption idea than global financial big dogs。

【小题2】The whole passage mainly developed_______ ？
A．by comparison B．by contrast C．by quotation D．by time order 【小题3】We can infer about the gold rush in China from the passage？A．The Chinese housewives are most willing to spend money in buying gold。

B．China’s "Da Ma" crowded into stores to get gold as the best gifts for sons when they get married。

C．China’s ”Da Ma" are bigger spenders and clever er than global financial big dogs.
D．China’s "Da Ma" become the largest gold buyers due to a decline in global gold prices。

72 I also just sit, and focus on my breathing going in and out。

73 I like to take breaks from work，and go outside for a slow walk. Pay attention to your breathing，to everything around you, to the sounds and light of objects.
