On the suburb (郊区) of a town in England,there lived an old man in a nice house with a large garden.(61) He watered and fertilized (施肥) them.
One day a young man went by the garden.He looked at the beautiful flowers,imaging how happy he could be if he lived in such a beautiful place.(62) He was very surprised about this and asked,"You can't see these flowers,why are you busy taking good care of them every day?"
The old man smiled and said,"I can tell you four reasons.First,I was a gardener since I was young,and I really like this job.Second,(63) Third,I can smell the sweetness of them.As for the last one,that's you."
"Me?But you don't know me,"said the young man.
"Yeah,it's true that I don't know you.But I know that flowers are angels (天使) that everyone knows.(64) "
