问题 单项选择题

继“吃农家饭、住农家院”的传统民俗游后,城里人又兴起了“种农家地”的新时尚。他们下乡租种农民菜地,既可以自己耕种采摘。也可以请农民代管。

20户城里人租下菜园,只需按年交一定的费用,就可以享受地里一年的收获,并且可以随意选择要种的品种。黄瓜、西红柿、青菜,小小的菜园五颜六色,成了田间一景。

“有的城里人爱尝鲜,专门找来新奇的菜籽,有的品种连我都没见过。”种了20年地的王大姐也正在接受城里人带来的新事物:“我要帮他们管理,当然也要学会这些新品种的种植。”

干了一上午农活,李先生一家三口走进王大姐家的小院:“大姐,我们中午就在这儿吃点,下午接着干。两个星期没来,地里草挺多。”

“行!就吃鸡蛋饼吧,我这就去做。”王大姐告诉记者,时间长了,他们来这儿就像走亲戚一样。

李先生说:“每次来种地,都是孩子最快乐的时候。自己动手耕种,既缓解了城市生活的压力,又让孩子明白了‘粒粒皆辛苦’的道理,何乐而不为呢”一旁还有人补充:“自从租了地,吃的菜全是自己种的。”

现在,城里人不再仪仪是体验采摘乐趣的游客,而是当起了“假日农民”。

通过种地,城里人可以:()

A.教育孩子

B.交朋友

C.缓解压力

D.以上三项

答案

near the school. 
   Girl: There are some advertisements for rooms in the paper. What about this one?
