Space is not a problem. Container gardening can be conducted in a single pot on a table or window sill, in a more elaborate room divider, or in a built-in planter.
Just as there are many kinds of plants, there are many kinds of containers. Plants can be grown in any container that will hold a growing medium. The choice ranges from the common clay pot to cans, jars, boxes, baskets and tubs.
Most people select containers for both their practical and "esthetic qualities". These include cost, availability, weight, strength, durability, attractiveness and sentimental value.
The size and shape of the container should depend on the plant's size and shape. Tall, tapering plants are more attractive in tall, relatively narrow containers. Short, compact plants appear more at home in shallow, wide containers.
Particularly important considerations for good plant growth are the volume and depth of the container, and some provision for drainage. Containers that have drainage holes in the bottom for the removal of excess water are best. Water-right containers are difficult to manage--excess water will accumulate at the bottom of the container and injure plant roots by excluding oxygen.
Container volume and depth become important in relation to the quantity of available water and nutrients.
Besides the right kind of container, some basic requirements for plant growth must be provided. Plants need light, water, nutrients, and a satisfactory temperature ranges.
Light is the most critical requirement. The levels of all the other requirements are regulated in relation to the amount of light that plants receive. When plants don't have enough light they become tall and thin. Plants are easier to maintain in good condition when their light requirements are met.
This article is primarily about ______.
A.growing indoor plants
B.growing tropical plants
C.making containers for plants
D.choosing appropriate containers for indoor plants

they can be moved from one home to another; and they can be moved outdoors in the summer and indoors
during the cooler months.
B: Woo, that's wonderful. Besides the space is not a problem. Container gardening can be conducted in a single pot on a table or windowsill, in a more elaborate room divider, or in a built-in planter.
A: But there are so many kinds of containers and I have no ideas how to chose from them, you know, there are common clay pot to cans ,jars, boxes, baskets and tubs.
B: I hear most people select containers for both their practical and esthetic qualities. These include cost, availability, weight, strength, durability, attractiveness, and decorative and sentimental value. What's more, the size and shape of the container should be consistent with the plant's size and shape. Tail, tapering plants are more attractive in tall, relatively narrow containers. Short, compact plants appear more at home in shallow wide containers.
A: Yes, you are right. And I think those containers must have those holes in the bottom for removal of excess water are best. Water-tight containers arc difficult' to manage; excess water will accumulate at the bottom of the container and injure plant roots by excluding oxygen.
B: Those are the fundamental requirements for plant growth, but plants need light, water, nutrients and a satisfactory temperature range.
A: Yes, light is the most critical requirement. The levels of all the other requirements are adjusted in relation to the amount of light that plants receive. When plants don't have enough light, they grow slowly and become tall and thin; it becomes difficult to avoid over-watering them. Plants are easier to maintain in good condition when their light requirements are met.

A.Things plants need to grow

The quick adoption of the scheme may have indicated less about the state lawmakers’ respect for working people than about a fear of risking their anger. In the 1880s the United States was a land sharply divided between the immensely wealthy and the very poor. Henry George was accurate in describing the era as one of “progress and poverty.” In a society in which factory, owners rode in private Pullmans while ten-year-olds slaved in the mines, strong anti-capitalist feeling ran high. Demands for fundamental change were common throughout the labor press. With socialists demanding an end to “wage slavery” and anarchists (无政府主义) singing the praises of the virtues of dynamite (炸药), middle-of-the-roaders like Samuel Gompers and McGuire seemed attractively mild by comparison. One can imagine practical capitalists seeing Labor Day as a bargain: A one-day party certainly cost them less than paying their workers decent wages.
第56题:Judging from the passage, McGuire was ________.
A) a moderate labor leader
B) an extreme-anarchist in the labor movement
C) a devoted socialist fighting against exploitation of man by man
D) a firm anti-capitalist demanding the elimination of wage slavery
