In

1921,

long

the

Walt

Disney

Company

turned

Pooh

(

维尼熊

into

an

international

star of TV and films, Christopher Robin Milne was given a toy bear on his first birthday

from

his

father,

A.A.

Milne,

who

bought

the

stuffed

(

填充的

animal

from

a

store.

The

stuffed

animal

was

named

Edward

Bear.

Years

later,

Edward

was

named

Winnie.

From

the

time

Christopher

Robin

Milne

was

a

baby

until

he

was

about

8

years

old,

he

would

receive

different

stuffed animals.

A.A. Milne was a famous English author. As he watched his son interact (

互动

) with

Winnie and friends, A.A. Milne thought his child

’

s interaction with the collection of

animals would make a great bedtime story. So Milne worked with artist Ernest H. Shepard

and wrote the first

Winnie the Pooh

poem, where Edward Bear was known as

“

Teddy Bear

”

.

The writings appeared in

Punch

magazine and in the book they wrote together,

When We Were

Very Young

, which was published in 1924. In a four-year period, three more books that

centered on the bear and his team followed: 1926

’

s

Winnie-the-Pooh

; 1927

’

s

Now We Are

Six

; and 1928

’

s

The House at Pooh Corner

.

books

and

poems

Pooh

brought

great

success

to

the

author,

and

the

characters

became

favorites

with

young

children

and

their

families

around

the

world.

Their

popularity

led

Disney

to

get

the

rights

to

make

films

about

the

characters

in

1961.

Five

years

later,

Pooh, Tigger, Piglet and the rest of the team appeared on screen for the first time in

Winnie-the-Pooh and the Honey Tree

. The characters later appeared in TV shows, movies,

Gardening is popular in many parts of the world. This outdoor activity gives us

beautiful plants, pleasant smelling flowers and fresh fruits and vegetables. But it also

does a lot of good to our health.

Gardening

connects

people.

When

you

are

gardening,

you

are

outdoors.

So

it

is

a

perfect

chance to meet and spend time with your neighbors. Most people love to talk about their

hobbies, and gardeners are no different. They usually enjoy showing people what they are

growing. And most enjoy sharing advice and stories about their gardens almost as much as

sharing flowers and vegetables from their gardens.

Gardening is a great activity for children. It gets them outdoors and off computers,

televisions

and

cell

phones.

Gardening

is

also

a

great

teacher.

It

can

teach

a

child

about

where

food

comes

from

and

healthy

eating.

It

also

helps

them

to

understand

that

the

natural

resources (

资源

) are not inexhaustible and the importance of using them carefully.

Then, when you garden, you must move around. All the different movements needed for

gardening, like bending and lifting, work small muscles (

肌肉

) in the body. And you can

easily get good exercise when you are digging holes or pulling grasses.
