I. LESSON
Read the following text about gardening.
People divide hobbies into four big groups: doing things, making things,
collecting things, and learning hings.
Gardening is one of the oldest outdoor activities. It has something for everyone,
even for children. Gardening teaches children about flowers, fruits and vegetables.
They can also learn about insects and bugs. When gardening, children learn to be
patient and take on responsibility. They learn to wait for the plants to grow to
maturity. And if they don’t water their plants, their plants will die. This teaches
them valuable lessons anout responsibility.
Gardening is also good because everyone in the family can join in and do
something together. My mum and I love gardening. We usually spend an hour a
day in our garden. It really makes us happy, and we love spending time together.
