1、Unit 3 The Rite of SpringArthur Miller1. I have never understood why we keep a garden and why over 36 years ago when I bought my first house in the country, I started digging up a patch for vegetables before doing anything else. When you think how easy and cheap, relatively, it is to buy a bunch of
2、carrots or beets, why raise them? And root crops especially are hard to tell apart, when store-bought, from our own. There is a human instinct at work here, a kind of back-breaking make-believe that has no reality. Besides, I dont particularly like eating vegetables. Id much rather eat something jui
3、cy and fat. Like hot dogs. 2. Now, if you could raise hot dogs outside your window, youd really have something you could justify without a seconds hesitation. As it is, though, I cannot deny that when April comes I find myself going out to lean on the fence and look at that miserable plot of land, r
4、esolving with all my rational powers not to plant it again. But inevitably a morning arrives when, just as I am awakening, a scent wafts through the window, something like earth-as-air, a scent that seems to come up from the very center of this planet. And the sun means business, suddenly, and has a
5、 different, deeper yellow in its beams on the carpet. The birds begin screaming hysterically, thinking what I am thinkingthe worms are deliciously worming their way through the melting soil. 3. It is not only pleasure sending me back to stare at that plot of soil, it is really conflict. The question
6、 is the same each yearwhat method should we use? The last few years we put 36-inch-wide black plastic between the rows, and it worked perfectly, keeping the soil moist in dry times and weed-free. 4. But black plastic looks so industrial, so unromantic, that I have gradually moved over to hay mulch.
7、We cut a lot of hay and, as it rots, it does improve the soils Composition. Besides, it looks lovely, and comes to us free. 5. Keeping a garden makes you aware of how delicate, bountiful, and easily ruined the surface of this little planet is. In that 50-by-70-foot patch there must be a dozen differ
8、ent types of soil. Tomato wont grow in one part but loves another, and the same goes for the other crops. I suppose if you loaded the soil with chemical fertilizer these differences would be less noticeable, but I use it sparingly and only in rows right where seeds are planted rather than broadcast
9、over the whole area. Im not sure why I do this beyond the saving in fertilizer and my unwillingness to aid the weeds. 6. The attractions of gardening, I think, at least for a certain number of gardeners, are neurotic and moral. Whenever life seems pointless and difficult to grasp, you can always get
10、 out in the garden and get something done. Also, your paternal or maternal instincts come into play because helpless living things are depending on you, require training and encouragement and protection from enemies. In some cases, as with beans and cucumbers, your childrenas it werebegin to turn up
