For years I wanted a garden. I’d spend hours thinking of different things I could plant that would look nice together.
But then we had Matthew, and Marvin, and the twins Alisa and Alan, and then Helen. I was too busy raising them to grow a garden.
Money was not enough. Neither was time. Often when my children were little,one of them would want something that cost too much, and I’d have to say, “Do you see a money tree outside? Money doesn't grow on trees, you know.”
Finally, all the children got through high school and college and were off on their own. I started thinking again about a garden.
Then, one spring morning, on Mother’s Day, I was working in my kitchen. Suddenly, I looked out of the window and there was a new tree, planted right in my yard. There were things blowing around on it. Then I put my glasses on—and I couldn’t believe what I saw.
There was a money tree in my yard!
I went outside to look. It was true! There were dollar bills*, one hundred of them, hanging all over that tree. There was also a note among them, “Thank you for your time, Mom. We love you!”
Later, my children bought me tools, ornaments, a sunflower stepping stone and gardening books. A new page started in my life.
That was three years ago. My garden’s now very pretty, just like I wanted. When I go out and take care of my flowers, I don’t seem to miss my children as much as I once did. It feels like they’re right there with me. Now every year when winter comes, I look out of my window and think of the flowers I’ll see next spring in my little garden. I think about what my children did for me, and I get tears in my eyes—every time.
I’m still not sure that money grows on trees. But I know love does!

The Greenest School in Britain

The pupils and teachers at Fairfield School think it's worth looking after the environment! This is what they've been doing:

Growing vegetables

Fairfield School pupils started their own vegetable garden. Both children and teachers plant and water the seeds ( 种子), then I hey pick the vegetables, which are used in school meals. Now they can all enjoy healthy food at lunchtime. "School dinners are tastier than ever before! " says one pupil.

Recycling

The Fairfield pupils don't just bring their books to school—they bring their rubbish too! There are recycling bins (回收箱 )in the playground for cans, plastic bottles, batteries and paper. The teachers give a prize every month to the pupil who's tried the hardest to recycle.

Planting trees

"This used to be one of the least beautiful areas of the city with no green areas, says the head teacher Lynne Johnson. "Now every child has planted their own tree, which he or she looks after during the week. They've made the view from the classroom more beautiful!

Finding cleaner ways to get around

Everyone walks or cycles to Fairfield School! "When the roads are busy, it’s faster to ride bikes than to go by car anyway,” says one pupil. Even the teachers don't use their cars. "We won't encourage our pupils to look after the environment if we don't do it ourselves! " says one teacher.

1.Every month the pupil who has done the best to recycle will_ _from the

teachers.

2. Neither the __________ nor the __________ in Fairfield school go to school by car.
