Frances Hodgson Burnett的the secret garden?
The opening chapter in the The Secret Garden finds Mary Lennox an ugly and disagreeable girl.She has a little thin face and a little thin body,thin light hair and a sour expression.Her hair is yellow,and her face is yellow because she has been born in India and has always been ill in one way or another.Her father holds a position in India under the English Government and is busy and her mother is a great beauty who cares only to go to parties.After her parents die in an epidemic of cholera,this lonely girl is sent to live with her uncle,Archibald Craven,at Misselthwaite Manor,on the edge of the Yorkshire moor in England.There,with the help of the robin,a magical bird,Mary discovers a secret garden which has been shut up for ten years.Ten years ago,Craven’s wife,Lilias,died from a severe fall from the tree right in this garden.From then on,this garden is locked up.Under the care of Mary and Dickon,a Yorkshire boy who lives on the moor,the dead garden is turned into a flourishing garden full of vigor and vitality.The process of tending the garden also restores Mary to her health.In addition,the discovery of the garden parallels Mary’s discovery of her cousin,Colin,who is tyrannical and hysterical.In the garden,Colin strives to gain his health and happiness.At the end of the book,Mr.Craven returns to the garden and Mr.Craven,Mary and Colin are reunited happily in the beautiful garden.
