Comprehension (pg 72) Cl-3

IN THE GARDEN

Penny and Philip Hall often help their parents in the garden. Penny digs up the weeds that grow among the plants with a small fork. She puts them in a wheelbarrow. When the wheelbarrow is full, Philip wheels it down the path to the bottom of the garden. Then he throws all the weeds on a big heap to be burnt by his father. Every Saturday Mrs Hall cuts the lawn with a mower and trims the hedges with a pair of shears. She also likes to look after the flowers. When they are in bloom she often picks some and puts them in vases in the house. Mr Hall grows all the vegetables. These include potatoes, carrots, cabbages and runner beans.
