A. Choose the best answer（根据短文内容，选择最恰当的答案) (12分)
As more Americans try to have healthy lifestyles and protect the environment, the idea of growing their own food has become popular among city people. Not long ago, a city gardening meeting, Rooting DC, took place in Washington, D.C. Many organizations and people got together to support the food movement.
Katie, one of the main organizers of Rooting DC, says people can get free seeds(种子) if they take part in the one-day gardening meeting. According to Katie, the aim of Rooting D.C. is to teach people gardening and develop more gardens all across the city.
Katie says, ―People realize that gardening is a way to bring healthy foods into their lives. They become interested in gardening because of that. Growing worry about the environment has also worked. We not only grow food, but protect the environment through gardening.‖
Several organizations that encourage school children to grow fruits and vegetables in healthy ways also ran classes at Rooting DC. Scott, a college student, who came with his friends, says, ―I am really interested in gardening. Certainly I know how to find local food, but I want to grow the food on my own and encourage others to do so.‖
Ann came to get information for her daughter. ―We started a garden together at her school. I need to find out more resources to support school gardens.‖
Brian, a computer teacher, says gardening is a hobby that he can enjoy with his friends. ―I am looking forward to getting some seeds since I need new seeds to exchange with my friends. We’d like to see different plants grow in our gardens.‖
The organizers hope that city gardening can become more and more popular not only in their area but also around the country and even across the world.
