12、 阅读下面短文,用英语回答短文后的问题。
Cutting the Grass
A charity in the UK is asking people not to cut down the grass in their garden. When spring arrives, many gardeners mow (修剪) their lawns. The activity is part of a project called "No Mow May". It helps flowers grow wild and insects breed. The purpose of No Mow May is to keep the nature in balance. It is from the charity Plantlife. The charity is also asking people to count the types and number of wild flowers in their garden. Plantlife considers that leaving the grass uncut creates habitats (栖息地) which will help "bees, butterflies, wildlife and us". Bees are a basic part of nature as they spread flowers. Cutting the grass means there are fewer flowers for bees and other insects to live on.
A spokesperson for Plantlife said garden lawns have the possibilities to be "biodiversity hotspots". Last year, the charity found over 250 kinds of plants on people's lawns. These included wild strawberries and wild eggplants. Plantlife wants people to value wild lawns more. It said people would get a nice, colorful surprise if they did not cut their grass. One gardener spoke to the BBC about the joy of wild gardens. He said people care too much about having a clean garden and use too much compost. He believes not mowing the lawn lets people reconnect with the natural world. Plantlife agreed. It said a wild garden makes you have more fun instead of your own garden.
(1)、What is the purpose of "No Mow May"?(2)、What does cutting the grass mean?(3)、How many kinds of plants did the charity find on the lawns last year?(4)、What would people get if they don't cut the grass in their garden?(5)、Do you agree that people should not cut down the grass in the gardens? Why or why not? -

Two years ago, my family moved into our dream house—a very big home seven rooms. It was a beautiful place, but as we grew up, our feeling of togetherness began to disappear (slow). In the big house, we sometimes seemed (be) strangers to each other.
One day, my daughter Hannah became sad about the (different) between the world's haves and have-nots. She wanted us to be "a family that does something good in the world, even if it's a small thing". My wife Joan asked her, " are you willing to give up? Your house? Your room?" Hannah said yes to both. After (talk) it over as a family, we decided to sell our house and move to one that was half its size and price and give the money to some charities. After a lot of research, we (choose) the Hunger Project, a US organization.
To be honest, we were a little (worry) at first. Would new home be too small for us? Or would we think we had given up too much? Two years later, I can tell you: It's the (good) move we have ever made. While we worked together on our family project, we became much closer. As Hannah said the other day, "We learned how to really trust each other. We do believe in each other now."
