Plant Anything

A good friend of mine, Miriam, was going away on a long trip during the autumn. I called her the day before she would leave for the trip to wish her have a good trip. She was completely behind on everything she needed to do. She was a little worried. “I bought some wonderful corms to plant for next spring. But now I have no time to deal with them,” she said.

I always plant many seeds（种子）in March and by June enjoy the sweet smell everywhere. I just can’t bear the thought of a plant not getting a chance to grow. “I’ll plant them for you,” I told her.

“Oh, would you?” Miriam was excited. She promised to put them out on the porch（走廊）for me.

I arrived several days later and found a paper bag on the porch. After a lot of work, I planted all the corms in the perfect place.

When Miriam got back a few months later, she and I went out for dinner to celebrate her return. While eating, she said, “You know, I still can’t believe I forgot to put those corms out on the porch!”

I looked at her in surprise. “What do you mean? Of course, you put them out. They were sitting on the porch in a paper bag.”

“No,” she said, “They’re still sitting on the desk where I left them.”

“So, what did I plant that morning?” I asked.

She stopped as if to prepare me for her news. Then she slowly said, “That was cat poop（猫屎）. You planted cat poop.”

Miriam looked at my face and did the best to keep from laughing. But I was too busy replaying the pictures of me picking these cat poop from a paper bag and planting them.

Years have passed since then, and both our gardens and our friendship have continued to grow. I guess, I really will try to plant just about anything.

【题目】 Teenagers have a lot of new ideas. Let’s have a look at these teenage inventions that might change the world.

Banana leaves usually go bad in two or three days. Tenth Hadith, a teenager from India, used UV to make the leaves stay fresh for a year. Tenth thinks that one day the leaves will be used for making plates, cups and other things.

David Cohen, an American teenager, built an earthworm（蚯蚓） robot. It is able to go into the smallest places, where humans or dogs can’t go. It will be used for finding people in a fire or an earthquake.

Remya Jose, a 14-year-old girl from India, found it tiring and boring to hand wash clothes in the nearby river. She reused some bicycle parts and created a washing machine that saves time, energy and keeps people fit at the same time.

Kenneth Shinozuku, a 15-year-old boy from New York, noticed that his grandfather who got Alzheimer’s disease（老年痴呆）would often leave home and get lost. So he invented the wearable sensors（感应器）to help people find their family members like his grandfather.
