问题     Vegetable gardening is the relaxing art and science of turning a love for growing plants into a meaningful activity. Having vegetables in the backyard makes home gardening appealing for many people. In addition, vegetable gardening provides exercise and fun for both urban and suburban families.
    Vegetable gardeners agree that many home-grown vegetables are superior to those purchased from markets. From spring through late fall, a well-planned and well-kept garden can provide a supply of fresh vegetables, thus increasing the nutrition of the family diet.
    Freezers make it possible to keep some of the vegetables to be enjoyed at a later date. Other vegetables can be stored for a few months in a cool area.
    Although the money spent for a garden may be little, one cannot escape the fact that gardening requires hard work and time. Many of the gardening tasks must be performed at times that are most inconvenient. Not doing jobs that should be done on a regular basis may result in failure and a negative feeling toward gardening.
    One should not plant a garden that is too large for him to care for. A small, well-kept garden is more enjoyable and profitable than a large neglected one. Vegetables do well in full sunlight and need at least five or six hours of sun during the middle of the day. Too much shading results in poor plants and few vegetables. If possible, the garden should be near the house, so the gardener can work in it whenever they are free.
    Soils for vegetables should be easily broken up and porous (多孔的) for quick water drainage and good aeration(透气). Usually the home owner has little choice in the type he can choose.
    Fortunately, many vegetables can be grown on poor soils if the soils are properly prepared.
Which of the following statements is true?
选项 A、Vegetables need to have as much shading as possible.
B、A small garden is much better than a large one.
C、Homeowners can freely choose the soil for their vegetable garden.
D、Whenever possible, the vegetable garden should be close to your home.
答案D
解析 第五段最后一句“If possible…they are free”(如果可能的话，园子应该在你家附近，那么主人一旦有空闲就可以来此劳作)，选D。A项认为蔬菜需要尽可能多的树阴，这与倒数第二段第三句话“Vegetables do well in full sunlight”(蔬菜在充足的阳光下长势良好)相矛盾；B项认为小园子好于大园子，文章倒数第二段只是提出了“不要种植一个超出自己照管范围之外的大园子，一个精心维护的小园子要比一个疏于管理的大园子更加令人心情愉悦，获得更大利润”；C项认为主人能够自由选择他
