【解析】

薄荷是一種有用的植物，本篇介紹如何種植薄荷：準(zhǔn)備一個(gè)花盆，種上薄荷，把薄荷放在合適的地方，給薄荷澆水，收獲薄荷。

【1】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文中“Use a garden fork to loosen the soil”，可知“用花園叉松土”， 故選A。

【2】推理判斷題。根據(jù)文中“and it can grow well both indoors and outdoors.”，可知“室內(nèi)室外都可以種植””，所以A錯(cuò)誤；根據(jù)文中“Mint grows fast.”，可知“薄荷長(zhǎng)得快，沒(méi)有表述夏季長(zhǎng)得最快”，所以B錯(cuò)誤；根據(jù)文中“You can plant it all year round,”，可知“一年四季都能種植”，所以C表述正確；根據(jù)文中“Mint prefers wet soil. Keep the soil well watered,”可知“種植薄荷的土要保持濕潤(rùn)，不能一個(gè)月才澆一次水”，所以D表述錯(cuò)誤；故選C。

【3】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文中“To make things more fun, why not ask each of your classmates to grow some mint? Let's see whose mint grows the fastest!”，可知“可以通過(guò)讓同學(xué)也種些薄荷讓種植薄荷更有趣”， 故選D。

做細(xì)節(jié)理解題時(shí)要先劃關(guān)鍵詞，再根據(jù)關(guān)鍵詞定位到文中的某一段即可做出題目。

例如第1題,根據(jù)關(guān)鍵詞loosen the soil可知,定位至“Use a garden fork to loosen the soil”，可知“用花園叉松土”， 故選A。
