2013高考英语二轮(文章题)训练(18)及答案 (A) All over my garden I’ve planted nothing but roses, because I especially love the flower.A close friend came for a visit the other day.I told her that she should pick a bunch of roses to beautify her bedroom.I promised that the smell of the roses would be wafted far, far away. That girl friend of mine, walking into the garden in high spirits, smelt here and there, but in the end she didn’t pick a single rose.I said that she could pick many flowers; I told her that I was not a flower farmer and didn’t make a living out of them.Saying so, I raised the scissors for the sacrifice of the flowers, but she stopped me, crying no, no, no! To cut such beautiful roses would hurt one, she said.With her hands seizing at my sleeves, she told me that by no means should they be cut.Roses are the smiling face of the earth, and who could be so iron-hearted as to destroy such a charming smile? My mind was shocked: the ugly earth, the tough earth, the plain earth—it is for the reason of that smile that it wins the care and pity of people. 21.
