My mother loves flowers.As soon as warm weather comes around，you will find her planting，watering，and weeding over everything.For a number of years we lived next door to each other，and she spent as much time in my garden as she did her own.After the flowers became plentiful（充足的，豐富的） each summer，she would cut colorful bouquets（花束） to enjoy inside the house -- both hers and mine.I would often come home from work and find a beautiful arrangement of fresh flowers on my coffee table.
   Shortly before Christmas one year，a local flower shop offered a bouquet-a-month special.It seemed to be a made-to-order gift for Mom，a great way to thank her for all of the flowers she had given me through the years.
   After the holidays，in early January，I drove her to the flower shop to pick up her first month's bouquet.The small fresh colorful bouquet would hardly fill a small vase（花瓶）.
   I was so embarrassed（尷尬的）.However，after we returned home，she began to arrange the flowers she had received. "Mom，I'm sorry，"I told her."I can't believe how skimpy that bouquet is." She looked at me and smiled. "It's okay，"she said."It allows me to better enjoy the beauty of each one."
   Mom's words helped me to realize something bigger and more important --when we have too many good things，we often fail to enjoy the beauty of each one.
   Thanks，Mom，for helping me understand that less is sometimes more.

3．I'm in the area of Noailles in Marseille，F(xiàn)rance's second largest city and its main trade seaport.Some small shops sell vegetables，meat，and，it seems，all the spices of the Middle East.In addition to French，languages spoken on the busy streets include Arabic and African French.It all adds up to one of the most ethnically diverse cities in Europe.
   Close to the downtown street，I discover an Algerian restaurant，whose owner makes his signature dish—couscous with barley，not the usual wheat，using a recipe that hasn't changed since the 1920s.Couscous is an necessary part of Marseille culture.The dish was added to the UNESCO's Lists of Intangible Cultural Heritage in 2020.
   To be honest，before I travelled here，couscous had not been the first meal that came to mind when I thought of Marseille.It was bouillabaisse，the rich soup with olive oil，garlic and saffron.I imagined enjoying it at a small portside cafe.This was clearly a romantic fantasy.For one thing，there are no small cafcs at historic city.For another，the restaurants do serve bouillabaisse，but when I see the price at one place I am shocked：69 euros!No bowl of soup should cost that much.
   I give up and end up two streets away from the old harbor in a new restaurant，Ourea.For 28 euros，Chef Matthieu Roche serves a three-course lunch that includes tuna steaks and couscous.
   More and more young，talented people are discovering that Marseille is an ideal place to live.There is also a growing number of Parisians moving here every year.Tired of the rush and expense of life in larger cities，the newcomers come looking for the more relaxed Mediterranean way of life.
   Walking through these contrasting neighborhoods of Marseille.I think about the distinct communities here living in the same neighborhoods- together，side，by，side，but not mixed.They may also feel they are Marseillais first regardless of nationalities.

（1）Which word can best describe Marseille according to the first paragraph？

A．Remote.
B．Commercial.
C．Industrial.
D．Inland.
（2）What made the author leave the Algerian restaurant？

A．The unreasonable charge.
B．The unbearable flavor.
C．The unsatisfying service.
D．The noisy atmosphere.
（3）Why do the newcomers choose Marseille rather than other big cities？

A．To make a fortune.
B．To experience a dish.
C．To learn a language.
D．To live a leisurely life.
（4）In which column of a magazine can we probably read the text？

A．Fashion.
B．Food.
C．Trade
D．Travel.
