Where to Go

Here are some of the best places across the UK for your whole family to enjoy the quality time together in nature.

Drove Orchards(果园)，Thornham，Norfolk

Drove shines a bit brighter each autumn，when it starts delivering fruit.Many of the fresh apples and pears there are ready-picked as well as PYO(short for pick-your-own).Also juice made from the orchards’ special varieties of apples is strongly recommended.

Opening time: 10 a.m.—4 p.m.daily until the end of October(booking not necessary but checking what’s fruiting before visiting at droveorchards.com)

Blooming Green，Linton，Kent

Blooming Green is a “no-dig” flower business，selling flowers directly to customers and opening for PYO activities from summer to the end of October.In November and December there are wreath-making(花环制作) workshops，where participants pick their favourite flowers.

Opening time: 10 a.m.—4 p.m.on Saturdays only(with pre-booking of one-hour slots，bloominggreenflowers.co.uk)

Towerbrook Farm，Banwell，Somerset

Like many other farms，Towerbrook Farm offers pick-your-own and cut-your-own service.But it’s the first place that offers dig-your-own Christmas trees，meaning you can take your tree back after the holiday and replant it there，which allows you to avoid sending your tree to the recycling centre.

Opening time: 8 a.m.—4 p.m.daily between 20 November and 30 December(pre-booking not necessary)

Shute Fruit，Bishopsteignton，South Devon

As well as selling preserves made from kinds of berries，Shute Fruit also manages an extensive pick-your-own operation.There you can pick your own sloe berries.If you are a fan of sloe gin，a kind of alcoholic drink，whose alcohol content is between 15 and 30 percent，ask the farm for recipes to make your own sloe gin at home.

Opening time: 11 a.m.—5 p.m.daily except rainy days and Mondays，until the end of October(booking not necessary，shutefruit.co.uk)

D．They needn’t be booked in advance.

【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了四个位于英国的让全家人享受高质量自然生活的地方。

1．B　细节理解题。根据Drove Orchards(果园)，Thornham，Norfolk中的“Also juice made from the orchards’ special varieties of apples is strongly recommended(此外，强烈推荐用果园的特殊苹果品种制成的果汁).”可知，如果你去Drove Orchards，你会被推荐去品尝特殊的苹果汁。故选B项。

2．C　细节理解题。根据Towerbrook Farm，Banwell，Somerset中的“But it’s the first place that offers dig-your-own Christmas trees，meaning you can take your tree back after the holiday and replant it there，which allows you to avoid sending your tree to the recycling centre(但这是世界上第一个提供‘自己挖’圣诞树的地方，这意味着你可以在节日结束后把圣诞树带回去重新种在那里，这样你就不用把圣诞树送去回收中心了).”可知，如果你想自己挖一棵圣诞树然后拿回去，你可以去Banwell。故选C项。

3．C　推理判断题。根据Drove Orchards(果园)，Thornham，Norfolk中的“there are ready-picked as well as PYO(short for pick-your-own).”，Blooming Green，Linton，Kent中的“opening for PYO activities from summer to the end of October.”，Towerbrook Farm，Banwell，Somerset中的“Like many other farms，Towerbrook Farm offers pick-your-own and cut-your-own service(和其他许多农场一样，Towerbrook Farm提供自摘自割的服务).”及Shute Fruit，Bishopsteignton，South Devon中的“Shute Fruit also manages an extensive pick-your-own operation( Shute Fruit还经营广泛的自我采摘的操作).”可知，四个地方都提到了自我采摘服务。故选C项。

Ⅱ.七选五

A Garden That’s Just Right for You

(2023山东菏泽市一中高二测试)Have you ever visited a garden that seemed just right for you，where the atmosphere of the garden appeared to total more than the sum (总和) of its parts? __1__. But it doesn’t happen by accident. It starts with looking inside yourself and understanding who you are with respect to the natural world and how you approach the gardening process.

·__2__

Some people may think that a garden is no more than plants，flowers，patterns and masses of colour. Others are concerned about using gardening methods that require less water and fewer fertilisers. __3__. However，there are a number of other reasons that might explain why you want to garden. One of them comes from your earliest years.

·Recall your childhood memories

Our model of what a garden should be often goes back to childhood. Grandma’s rose garden and Dad’s vegetable garden might be good or bad，but that’s not what’s important. __4__—how being in those gardens made us feel. If you’d like to build a powerful bond with your garden，start by taking some time to recall the gardens of your youth. __5__. Then go outside and work out a plan to translate your childhood memories into your grown-up garden. Have fun.

【语篇解读】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了两条装饰花园的建议：一是弄清楚你为什么要做园艺；二是回忆你以前看到过的花园。

1．F　根据设空处前后句的句意“你是否参观过使你感觉非常好的花园？”和“但是，这并不是偶然发生的。”可知，F项“你也可以在你的花园里制造那种奇妙的感觉”使得上下文语意连贯，衔接紧密。

2．A　此处缺少主题句。根据本段倒数第二句“However，there are a number of other reasons that might explain why you want to garden.”可知，本段主要讲要弄清楚你为什么要做园艺。故A项符合语境。

3．E　本段介绍人们对于园艺的观点：有些人认为花园不外乎是一些花花草草；有些人关心少用水、少用肥料的园艺方法。设空处仍然在说明人们对园艺不同的看法。故E项“还有其他一些人只是喜欢待在户外和接近植物”承接上文。

4．C　根据设空处前一句“……不重要”可知，强调的是在园艺中对我们来说真正重要的是什么。故C项“重要的是我们做园艺的经历”符合上下文语境。

5．G　根据本段内容及主题句“Recall your childhood memories”可知，如果自己装饰一个花园，要回忆一下自己小时候所看到的那些花园，并把这些花园的优点写下来，然后制订计划并把自己以前的记忆变成美丽的花园。故G项符合语境。
