The Costa Book Awards consistently pick winners that are both of the moment and subsequently endure. It's
our pleasure to confirm this year’s Category Winners.

Last summer, Maria and her mother moved from their house in the countryside to a flat building in Chicago.
Maria really liked some things about the city, but she missed her house and yard in the countryside.
One day, Maria was in her flat building when she noticed her neighbor, Mrs. Garcia, carrying a gardening tool
and a bag of soil. Maria wondered how Mrs. Garcia was able to garden in the city.
“My mom used to grow the most delicious vegetables, and I know she misses her garden now that we don’t
have a yard,” said Maria.
Mrs. Garcia laughed. “I’ll show you,” she said.
Maria thought that Mrs. Garcia would take her to the park, but she took her to the roof. When the door
opened, Maria was surprised to see rows of flowers and vegetables on the roof.
“What a wonderful garden!” said Maria.
Mrs. Garcia told Maria that for a long time the roof was just an empty space. Then some of the people in the
building asked the owners to turn it into a community garden. The building owners liked the idea because the
plants not only helped to keep the air clean, but they also helped to keep the building cooler during warmer
weather.
“I plant flowers in my own place,” Mrs. Garcia said, “but you would be surprised by how different the plants are up here. Some people grow vegetables just like your mom. You can do some of the same things in the city as in
the countryside. You just have to be creative!”
4. Where did Mrs. Garcia take Maria to one day?
A. The park. B. The roof.
C. The garden in front of her house. D. The countryside.
5. Which of the following is NOT the good side of the community garden?
A. It made the building stronger. B. It helped keep the air clean.
C. It helped keep the building cooler. D. It used the empty space well.
6. After Maria visited the garden, she would most probably ask her mom to ________.
A. go back to the countryside B. pick flowers from the garden
C show her around the park D. grow vegetables on the roof
7. What is the best title for this passage?
A. A Creative Lady B. An Empty Roof C. A Rooftop Garden D. A

One day when I was 5, my mother blamed me for not finishing my rice and I got angry. I wanted to play
outside and not to be made to finish eating my old rice. When angrily opening the screen door (纱门) with my
foot, I kicked back about a 12-inch part of the lower left hand corner of the new screen door. But I had no regret,
for I was happy to be playing in the backyard with my toys.
Today, I know if my child had done what I did, I would have blamed my child, and told him about how
expensive this new screen door was, and I would have delivered a spanking (打屁股) for it. However, my parents
never said a word. They left the corner of the screen door pushed out, creating an opening, in the defense against
unwanted insects.
