Amy gets a small tomato plant for her birthday. She wants to plant it in the backyard. She must choose the right spot.
艾米生日时得到了一株小番茄苗。她想把它种在后院里，得选一个合适的地方。
One spot is next to the fence. It gets a lot of sun there. But it is far from the hose.
一个地方靠着栅栏，那里阳光充足，但离水管很远。
Another spot is near the back door. It is easy to water every day. But a big tree blocks some sun.
另一个地方靠近后门，每天浇水很方便，但有一棵大树挡住了一部分阳光。
Amy walks between the two spots slowly. She looks up at the tree and the fence. Both spots seem fine in different ways.
艾米慢慢地在两个地方之间走来走去，抬头看看树，又看看栅栏。两个地方各有各的好。
Amy asks her father for advice. "Which spot do you like?" he asks. Amy thinks about both spots carefully.
艾米向爸爸请教。“你喜欢哪个地方？”他问。艾米认真地想了想这两个地方。
Sun matters more for tomatoes, she decides. She picks the spot next to the fence. She carries a long hose over to it.
她决定，对番茄来说阳光更重要。她选了靠着栅栏的那个地方，把一根长长的水管拉了过去。
Amy digs a hole and plants the tomato. She waters it well on the first day. She checks the sunny spot every morning.
艾米挖了一个坑，把番茄苗种了进去。第一天她给它浇足了水。每天早上，她都去看看那个阳光充足的地方。
Weeks later, small yellow flowers appear. The plant grows taller every single week. Small green tomatoes start to form on it.
几个星期后，小黄花开了。植株每个星期都在长高。上面开始结出小小的青番茄。
Every day, Amy fills her bucket happily. She walks it over to the fence.
每天，艾米都高高兴兴地装满水桶，提到栅栏边。
