Question

I am new to New York. I do not know anyone in the city. An old woman lives next door. She gives me a big box of fruit and vegetables. The kind neighbor (邻居) is Val.

The fruit and vegetables are from Val’s garden (园子). There are carrots, tomatoes, strawberries and so on in the garden. Val doesn’t have sons or daughters. But she is happy. She likes working in her garden. She loves those plants. Sometimes, she talks to them.

One day, I don’t see Val in the garden. Some days later, I see people take many boxes from her home. Grass grows in the garden. The plants look sad. Then I know Val passed away (去世). So I begin to take care of (照顾) her garden.
