Jenny liked planting flowers in her yard. Her grandfather used to teach her how to plant and care for flowers. So her yard was the most beautiful one in her village.

One day, while she was looking through a flower list, a picture of a plant caught her eyes at once. Jenny had never seen a flower like that before. “I must have it,” she said to herself, and she ordered it.

When it arrived, Jenny planted it at the bottom of a stone wall at the back of her yard. It grew well, with beautiful green leaves all over it. Day after day, she felt disappointed. She wondered why her plant hadn’t bloomed(开花). She wanted to cut it down and plant something else in its place.

However, at this moment, her disabled neighbor invited her to his yard and said, “Thank you so much! You can’t imagine how much I enjoy the flowers that you have planted!” The young woman walked into her neighbor’s yard. She saw that on the other side of the wall the plant was full of flowers.

They were, indeed, the most beautiful flowers that she had ever seen. The plant grew up through the crevices(裂缝) in the wall. It did not flower on her side of the wall, but flowered on the other side.

If you don’t see the good result, it doesn’t mean that it isn’t successful.

1.What did Jenny’s grandfather teach Jenny?

2.Why was the disabled neighbor thankful to Jenny?

3.Do you like planting flowers? Why or why not?
