The Garden
Clara waved goodbye to the removal men as the van trundled down the drive. She sat on the front step of her newly-purchased home, exhausted from moving house, but content. Her new life in the quiet solitude of a country village was about to begin and she was very excited about the prospect. The house was comfortable, with enough space to accommodate her city friends when they came, but the garden was a tangled mess of weeds after years of neglect. Turning it into her own private Eden would be the first big project in her new home.
1. What was Clara’s priority in her new home?
- to make it comfortable for visitors
- to get some much-needed rest
- to enjoy a quiet peaceful life
1. to enjoy a quiet peaceful life
The text says that Clara moved to the countryside because she wanted to escape city life and enjoy “the quiet solitude of a country village”. So her priority was to live a peaceful life, not to rest or mainly to make the house comfortable for visitors.
