My name is Mary White. I have five children, so our house is always noisy. Luckily, I love gardening and my garden helps me relax. For a long time, I guarded the garden of peace and quiet. When the children followed me into the garden, I would expect them to be out of sight. And I would hand out tasks. “ Here: you water the tomatoes, you dig the hole, and.” Soon they would be tired, and they would leave me to myself. But during a recent spring, while I was working in the garden, my 13-year-old son, Josiah noticed me. He picked up a tool and began helping. Working as a team, we finished the job soon. I appreciated Josiah and kissed him, realizing that I’d enjoyed working with him. One day, when I was picking the peas (豌豆) and having a taste alone, Abby saw me and ran over. I put several peas into her mouth. She just loved how tasty they were. “Mum. I want the others to try them too.” Suddenly, I realised I had been wrong for long. I’d tried to keep the happiness of gardening to myself, and here was a child who couldn’t wait to share with others. “Sure, dear, let’s pick some. We’ll make a wonderful meal.”
From then on, I enjoyed all of the garden’s beauties with the children. We brought the vegetables back home, preparing and cooking together, because we knew that everything was better when shared.

People are able to hear well, being able to hear high and low sounds through ears. People’s ears have three different parts.
The outer ear is the part of the ear that people can see. The size and shape of people’s ears is random ( 随 机 ) and it doesn’t affect their hearing. People with big ears don’t hear better than people with small ears. Some people choose to put earrings at the earlobe, the bottom of their ears, but this doesn't affect hearing. Even though this is the main part of the ear you can sec, all it does is to collect sound and send it down into the middle ear--- a part like a satellite dish (媟形卫星接受器) collecting a signal.
The outer ear ends where the eardrum（鼓膜）starts.The area after the eardrum is called the middle ear.
The sound that enters the outer ear makes the eardrum shake and the middle ear is the place where the sound gets louder. The sound travels through the inner ear into something called the cochlea（耳蜗），This part is filled with liquid(液体)and covered in tiny（細小的）hairs. As sound waves（声波）travel from the outer to the inner ear, they make waves in the liquid of the inner ear, which in turn moves the tiny hairs in the ear that send sound or movement signals to the brain (大脑).
（ ）38.People can see which part of the ear
A. The outer ear B. The eardrum. C. The cochlea. D.The inner ear.
（ ）39. What can we know about the size and shape of people's ears
They have something to do with people's hearing.
The bigger ears people have, the better they can hear.
Barrings at the bottom of ears affect people's hearing.
They are random and have nothing to do with hearing.
（ ）40 .According to the picture, which part is the middle ear
A.Part A B. Part B C. Part C D. Part D.
（ ）41.According to the passage, what is covered in tiny hairs
A.The earlobe. B.The eardrum. C.The brain D.The cochlea.
