A perennial (多年生的) plant lives for several years and has flowers every year. Some perennials, especially those in warmer areas, might bloom in March or April. The previous(先前的) month’s rainfall usually has little effect on when these flowers bloom. The roots of perennials are always in the ground. Therefore, their health and growth depend on the rainfall over many months. During the course of blooming, too much rainfall could actually be harmful. Some flowers are more likely to be affected by diseases if there is too much rain. Annuals（一年生植物）grow and die within one year. Annual flowers are different from perennials. They need enough water to grow. For them, what matters is the amount of rainfall in the months after they’re planted, not the months before. So what really brings May flowers There’s one factor that is much more important than rainfall: temperature. It determines when a flower will bloom. When the average temperature approaches spring—like weather, flowers will begin to bloom. 1—2题完成句子；3题简略回答问题：4题找出并写下全文的主题句；5题将文中画线句子译成汉语。 6． might bloom in March or April. 7． depend on the rainfall over many months. 8．What plant grows and dies within one year 9． 10． Do you long to have garden-fresh vegetables on your plate every night Read on for information on how to take ca ... ...
