Yes, I can. Because right now I'm growing a small flower called cornflower. During the process, it takes a lot of energy. I have to think about whether today's weather is suitable for placing it on the balcony? Is it time to water it? Is there enough nutrition in the small pot? I need to learn about how to keep it alive and well, which really tests my patience because it can die if I'm not careful. So now I can really understand the author's thoughts. I'm hoping that my little flower will really bloom.

Yes, I can.
Neurotic: Gardening requires a lot of effort and time, and the author must pay attention to various details of the plant, such as the amount of watering, the duration of light, the fertility of the soil, etc. The slightest negligence can cause problems with the plant, just as the author may always worry about whether the plant will grow healthily during the care process. This excessive attention to detail and worry about the result shows the neurotic side.
Ethical aspects: Gardening involves the care and nurturing of life and requires responsibility for plants. It's like treating any other living thing with respect and love. The author's awareness of the impact of his actions on plant life in gardening is a moral consideration.
In addition to these, gardening requires patience, persistence, and care. Learn to be patient while waiting for plants to grow and flower; In the face of various problems in plant growth, perseverance in finding solutions; In the process of taking care of plants, the ability to observe is exercised. -
I agree with the author.When I was in primary school, I had a homework to watch daffodils grow.As I watch it grow, I keep remembering to give it water and nutrients.I need to try and take good care of it.So I think gardening is a way to exercise my patience and willpower.
-
I can understand the author. First, gardening requires a significant amount of effort, putting us in a state of concern. Second, gardening demands that we treat plants with great care and responsibility, just as we would with children. Then, the patience and long-term commitment required for gardening teach us perseverance, persistence, and how to remain calm in dealing with things. Finally, gardeners learn planting experience from failures, making it an ongoing process of learning.
-
Yes, I can. In terms of the neurotic aspect, when cultivating a plant, I'm always worried about whether the temperature is suitable for its growth, whether its leaves have been bitten by insects, and whether it's receiving sufficient sunlight. I often have it on my mind and check its growth condition several times a day, hoping it will grow up quickly.
In terms of the moral aspect, I think nurturing a plant is like raising a child. The process from a seed to its flowering and fruiting really tests our patience and attentiveness. At the same time, we take care of the plant just as our parents take care of us, fulfilling a moral obligation.
In terms of learning from mistakes, I believe that the process of cultivating plants can't always be smooth - sailing. When we're new to gardening, we often overlook certain aspects, such as burying the seeds too deep, providing too much sunlight, or over - watering, which may lead to the death of the plants. After repeated attempts, we will surely draw experience and lessons from them and make correct judgments and choices in the future.
In terms of character - building, cultivating plants can not only help us develop the habits of patience and perseverance, but also foster our respect for life. -
I can relate the author's opinion when reading the words. Gardening can be seen as the origin of humankind industry, which is in our blood, thus cultivating characteristics.
-
Yes.Through gardening,we can learn the cycle of human life as the cycle of flowers and realize how ignorant we were.Besides, we can become more patient and more responsible through planting crops and so forth.
-
Yes, I can.Gardening can be neurotic because we should try again and again.And we always worry about something like the weather,the growth of crops.In our mind,we hope that our crops grow better and we should take responsibility for their growth and well - being.
-
Yes,I can. I think gardening is just like our study. Rather than saying that gardening is a bit "neurotic", it's more suitable to say that it's "crazy", just as we have to study "crazy" as well.In terms of morality, when we engage in gardening activities, it will arouse our paternal or maternal instincts, making us spontaneously feel compassion for the plants. This is somewhat similar to the "regret" in our study. When we get bad grades, we often feel regretful.At the same time, in gardening, we need to learn from our mistakes, and it's the same with our studies. Good grades come from timely summarizing and reflecting after making mistakes time and time again. Gardening is about character-building, and so is studying. Studying makes us more cultivated.Since gardening is similar to our study in many aspects, as a student, I can truly relate to the author's experiences.
-
Yes,I can.Cultivating a flower until it grows up needs a lot of effort.Water,sunlight,air and soil are all necessary things to a plant.The first time I grew flowers was because there were sunflower seeds included in the physical album.Because of the coldness in early spring, the seeds buried in the soil for nearly two weeks without any changes.It's a long time and needs patience.
-
Of course ,yes.Gardening is truly a magical thing!It turns someone into a total control freak! Who else spends hours rearranging flowers just because the angle isn't perfect? Who sneaks outside at night with a flashlight to inspect leaves for bugs? Normal people see a weed and walk away, but gardeners will squat down and study it carefully. Author consider many aspects,such as rain,sun,soil and fertilizer.And he will put black plastic between rows to protect the garden that make him bittersweet.
-
No. For some, gardening is nothing more than a pastime for relaxation. They don't approach it with sufficient earnestness to encounter the neurotic elements, moral implications, or character - forming aspects. Their attention is solely fixed on the visual appeal the garden achieves, rather than the journey of growth and the process of learning.
-
Yes, I can.
I think gardening is neurotic and we need to invest a lot of time and energy.Because the gardening makes me more patient.When I was in primary school, I met a pot on my way home from school.It may be a cactus potted plant that fell from a tall building.It was put in a lid of laundry detergent.I took it home.Unfortunately, I found that it was dying.I was unwilling to give up, so I changed it to a new pot of soil.Take care of it carefully every day and let it get more exposure to the sun.With my efforts,it gradually came to life.In the process of saving blood, I realized gardening requires a lot of patience and time.
So I agree with what the author said.
-
Yes, I have had such experiences too. Repeatedly checking on the plants' conditions and observing the weather in gardening can indeed make one seem neurotic. But behind this is a sense of responsibility towards these little lives. When the small tomatoes I planted were leaning, I propped them up with a tripod. And observing the growth rhythm of plants can help restore one's sense of the passage of time.
-
Yes, I can. During the process of gardening, a great deal of time and energy needs to be devoted to paying attention to details. At the same time, patience and perseverance are also required. From sowing seeds to the plants reaching maturity, it takes a long time, during which continuous care and waiting are necessary. Once any problems are found with the plants, one may feel anxious and be eager to take measures. Keeping a close eye on them is just like being neurotic, never forgetting these details.
-
I can
The writer must pay attention to the various details of the plant, such as the amount of watering, the duration of light, the fertility of the soil, etc.Neuroticism here
Gardeners need to learn from mistake to mistake how to cultivate better
-
Yes, I can. Although I do not like cultivating plants in the garden, my mother likes it. Sometimes, I can see my mother busy in the garden. She needs to water these plants regularly and turn the soil. All these require great patience and love for plants. In addition, my mother always lets me help her to clean the garden. It is back-breaking and regular long-term work. Through these experiences and my mother, I can see the author's figure and understand the emotion he wants to convey.
-
Yes, i can. Firstly, gardening is neurotic as i am always worry about plant details like watering and sunlight. it is moral since i feel responsible for the plants' survival. i have learned from the mistakes, like over-watering. all of these experiences bulid my patience and responsibility.
-
Yes. Gardening requires great patience and perseverance. It teaches us to learn from mistakes and cultivate a sense of responsibility. Gardening also involves a certain degree of obsession and a craving for order, which can be regarded as a kind of character shaping. However, for those who have no gardening experience or different interests, it might be difficult to fully understand the author's viewpoint.
-
Yes, I can. When I was in primary school, A teacher asked us to plant any plant we wanted and record its growth process. Every morning before I got to school, I usually watered the plant, removed the weed and gave it some fertilizer. After a few months, the plant bloomed and had some beautiful flowers. At that time, I was so happy and proud of what I had done, and this experience improved my patience.
-
Yes,I can.
When I plant a plant, I need to constantly pay attention to its growth status. I worry that the temperature or moisture may affect its growth. If the plant I'm growing doesn't develop well, I will promptly find out the reasons, learn from the lessons, and gain more experience.
-
Yes,I can.Gardening has moral significance. It teaches us to respect life, cherish natural resources, and strive to create a better environment. By planting and nurturing plants, we not only beautify our living spaces but also contribute to the Earth, which is a very meaningful moral action.
-

-
Yes.Gardening is a long-term process. Through gardening, we can cultivate our character and become more patient. This is because taking care of flowers and plants is not an easy task. We need patience and meticulousness.And be capable of gaining experience from failures.
-
Yes, I can.
In terms of the neurotic aspect of gardening, gardening requires continuous intervention - pruning, weeding, nurturing - and this almost compulsive care reflects Miller's anxiety about the creative process.
In terms of morality, Mistakes in gardening (such as excessive pruning or watering) can lead to the death of plants, which forces the gardener to reflect. He believes that taking responsibility for mistakes shapes one's character.
In terms of character shaping, plants cannot accelerate their growth on their own; the growth of any plant requires following natural laws. The death of plants is inevitable, and this also has an impact on an individual's character and willpower to a certain extent.
-
I can understand and agree with the author's description of gardening, because people always feel frustrated with the tediousness and meaninglessness of gardening, but they cannot stop planting. This contradiction is neurotic. People's pursuit of maintaining the cleanliness and orderliness of gardens is a moral aspect. Gardening requires constantly facing mistakes and learning from them. Horticulture requires people to persistently face failure and find the motivation to continue working hard, which can be character-building.
-
Yes,I can.It's a neural activity.In terms of learning from mistakes, it's seen in mastering plant cultivation techniques (e.g., avoiding over-watering and improper pruning) and pest and disease control (correcting misidentifications and wrong pesticide choices). For character building, it cultivates patience and perseverance as plants' growth is long-term, instills a sense of responsibility in plant care, requires attention to detail in various aspects of horticulture, and fosters an optimistic and positive attitude when dealing with plant problems.And it's a moral activity, encompasses learning from mistakes and character - building. In learning from mistakes, it includes proper resource management (e.g., avoiding overuse of chemical fertilizers) and protecting ecological balance (such as not introducing invasive species). For character building, it fosters a sense of altruism through sharing, self - discipline in regular garden maintenance, humility in the face of nature's power, and compassion for plants, which can be extended to other living beings.
-
Yes,I can.From my perspective,gardening needs patience and carefulness.Gardeners need to know the sun,water and fertilizer that the plants need.Through these processes, gandeners become more responsible,calm.There may be many difficulties in gardening,but gardeners can also learn a lesson from them.
-
Yes, I understand.
The author suggests that gardening can cause people to feel anxious or overly focused on details, just like how we feel nervous about our grades during our studies. A slight dip in grades can lead us to become "neurotic." Additionally, the author discusses the importance of learning from mistakes, it similar to how we improve in our learning process by constantly reflecting on and correcting our errors.
Overall, I believe I fully grasp the author's message. Gardening, like learning, requires patience and energy.
-
Yes,I can.Because learning is also the same process of gardening.We study from the basic knowledge to the deeper knowledge.The crops grow from seed to trees.During this process,they all need patient,a lot of energy and care.Sometimes,we may make mistakes.We can learn a lot from the mistakes.Of course,we shape different characters,such as persistence,patience and so on.
