Believe it or not, 43,000,000 Americans are gardening. That is about one in six. Gardeners, of course，come in many varieties.
Abhi Arora used to be in the tech field. Like so many people, he sat at a desk all day, staring at a screen. Due to the stress of always staying indoors and in front of a computer，he started getting anxiety issues. To recharge and refresh himself, he visited a local garden in California. He noticed the shift in his mood, emotions and improvement in his mental health overall during each visit.
Arora became friends and later business partners with the garden’s owner, farmer Rishi Kumar Kumar studied computer science in college but became obsessed with plants and gardening. He now runs Sarvodaya Farms in Pomona, California. “Rishi and I met an old man who was healing himself and his son through the power of gardens. It was then that I realized that we could help others feel the same connection to the healing power of gardens,” Arora says. The two co-founded Healing Gardens, an online marketplace where people can rent their organic urban gardens or farms for use by the hour.
“I’ve always had a love for plants and wildlife, so with Healing Gardens we want to bring easy access to the wellness benefits of nature to our community and at the same time do our part in regenerating our planet,” Arora says.
Healing Gardens is based on the simple idea that most people enjoy being surrounded by plants and animals. A healing garden is a restorative outdoor space that has been specifically designed to steer the restless mind away from circling thoughts and towards the presence of the senses.
In addition to offering private time for visitors to just spend time alone in the garden or at the farm, individual hosts may also offer events and activities like yoga classes, mediation sessions, and goat petting for kids. Beautiful imagery, luscious smells, birdsong and more, gently invite the guest at a Healing Garden to be present.
4. How did Arora feel after he visited local gardens
A. More stressed. B. More anxious.
C. More emotional. D. More relaxed.
5. What led Arora to set up Healing Gardens
A. The idea of looking for a new job.
B. An experience in a garden in California.
C. The bright future of the online business.
D. Kumar’s knowledge in computer science.
6. What’s the purpose of founding the Healing Gardens
A. To earn more money.
B. To promote the produce.
C. To provide leisure places.
D. To bring the benefits of nature to people.
7. What do we know about the Healing Gardens
A. Recovery rooms are available.
B. People can spend time alone for free.
C. A wide variety of activities are provided.
D. People can enjoy performances by trained animals.
Ⅱ.七选五
Have you ever wondered why you’re not as happy as you’d like to be Based on my own personal experience and the happiness facts published by Harvard University, I’ve summarized the following habits that will make you happy!
Laugh often. Laughter is the most powerful medicine for anger or depression. Research has shown that the simple act of smiling can increase your feeling of happiness.__1__ Try to find humor and laughter in life’s everyday struggles.
Keep your agreements. Our self-respect is built on the agreements we’ve made with ourselves and with others. And high self-respect has a direct relationship with happiness.__2__
Do your best and then let go. Everyone has limitations, and things don’t always turn out to be what we’d like them to be—despite our efforts. So always give your best, and then let go.__3__ When you’ve done your best, you’ll have no regrets.
Give back.__4__ According to Harvard，when people do good, their brains become active in the very same reward center that is stimulated when they experience other rewards. So it’s not a surprise that people who care more about others are happier than those who care less about others.
These happiness habits have proven to be true in my own life. During those periods when I focus on developing the habits listed above, I do feel happier and more fulfilled—like now. Happiness is not an accident.__5__
A. Let events run their course.
B. So don’t take life too seriously.
C. So do what you say you’re going to do.
D. When we succeed, we’re more likely to be happy.
E. This is the best way to overcome your limitations.
F. It’s a conscious decision that takes a conscious effort.
G. Helping others is one of the surest ways to feel good.
