"If you look the right way, you can see that the whole world is a garden. "These words come from the author of the book The Secret Garden, first published in 1911. At that time, only the very rich in Britain had gardens. Very soon after this, homes with gardens began to be built. This is what started the British love of gardening! Today, millions of Brits like to say that they have "green fingers" with around half the population spending their free time gardening.

For many people in the UK, their garden is their own private world. Each spring, children plant sunflowers and wait to see which one is the tallest. Expert gardeners know just the right comer for roses and others spend hours trying to grow perfect vegetables to enter into competitions. And while many Brits like nothing better than spending their Sunday cutting the grass, some are happy just to sit under the trees and enjoy the beauty of the world around them.

But in cities, limited space has led to people looking for new solutions. Those without outside space can rent small pieces of land on which to grow things. Today, there are over 4, 000 people in

London waiting for such pieces of land. One recent idea has been to turn rooftops and walls into private gardens. These gardens have helped make the cities greener and improve air quality.

As well as being good for the environment, gardening is also good for the soul. What other free-time activity allows you to be at one with nature and create more beautiful living things? And if you're in any doubt about this, take a moment to reflect on this line from The Secret Garden:Where you tend a rose… A thistle cannot grow. "

Imagine someone offers you two plates. One plate holds a single cookie while the other holds three cookies. Which one would you choose? Unless you don't like cookies, you'll pick the plate with three.

Being able to tell more from less is one of the most basic math talents. And it's one that a surprising number of animals have. A robin will pick the piece of wood with more mealworms. A salamander will pick the container with more fruit flies.

Animals will even pick more of something when it means they get less overall. Horses, for example, will go for three tiny apples over two much larger ones.

But animals do not have math class—why would they need to count?

Being able to spot the larger of two groups is useful to animals in lots of ways. It helps them pick the bush with more berries, or run to the larger group of friends. Many fish, for example, join groups for protection. If a predator comes, a fish in a group of 40 is less likely to become lunch than a fish in a group of 10. So if a fish has a choice between two groups, it's better to join the larger one.

Many animals can also do a simple form of counting. keeping track of how many of something there is.

Even animals we don't usually think of as smart can tell the difference between one, two, and three. Fish and honeybees can be trained to get through a maze by choosing turns marked by a certain number of dots—to find the way out, they have to count.

Some animals, such as pigeons, parrots, crows, and rats, can count much higher than three. A pigeon can learn to peck a button exactly 24 times—no more, no less—to get a treat. It can even remember its place and continue counting if interrupted.

One day, while my husband and I were passing a sporting goods store with a sign "Going out of Business" in a mall, I suggested looking around in it. But my husband said it was all overpriced junk.

With my promise of not buying anything, he agreed to wait in a coffee shop nearby.

I entered the crowded store, and strolled up and down All of a sudden, I saw the exact canoe which my husband had been longing for many years. I gasped and blinked three times. Yes, it was still there. My heart beat wildly. I quickly walked towards it and found out the price tag which said it was S6, 000 off.

Only S750?Must be mistaken!

I asked a young salesman named Mathew if there was anything wrong, but I was told it was new and was on clearance sale just like everything else.

After a check, however, he told me they made a mistake about the price which was supposed to be $4, 750.

With tears in my eyes, I said, "Of course, it was too good to be true. This is exactly like my husband's dreamboat. He's going to be 62 years old this Friday. He had to retire early for his health. It's been hard on just the pension but the stubborn old fool has been saving $10 every week for years. "My voice was lower and lower and then I walked away.

I was already at the mall door when Mathew caught up with me.

"Do you have $750 plus $25 for delivery and a bit more for tax, ma'am?"I gasped, "Yes. Yes. ""Well then, you just have your husband sitting on the front porch on Friday morning at around 10 o'clock when my dad and I come to unload his new boat." I started to cry. My old hand shook and I couldn't say a word for a long time.

Mathew swallowed and told me the story about his grandfather-the owner of the store, who had run it for more than 30 years, "He always promised to retire one day and would spend time fishing in a canoe. He ordered this one last year. But he died, sudden-like, just last week and never found a chance to use it. I think he will be very, very happy that your husband will get this canoe. You just have to promise that he will use it a lot. "

"I promise, "I said as I hurried to look for my dear sweet husband.
