Read the text and answer the question. I go out by the back door, into the garden, which is large and tidy: a lawn in the middle, a willow, weeping catkins; around the edges, the flower borders, in which the daffodils are now fading and the tulips are opening their cups, spilling out color. The tulips are red, a darker crimson towards the stem, as if they have been cut and are beginning to heal there. https://cursos.novaescola.org.br/curso/12075/pre-avancado-b-2-1-parte-1/resumo https://cursos.novaescola.org.br/curso/12075/pre-avancado-b-2-1-parte-1/resumo https://cursos.novaescola.org.br/curso/12075/pre-avancado-b-2-1-parte-1/resumo https://cursos.novaescola.org.br/curso/12075/pre-avancado-b-2-1-parte-1/resumo https://novaescola.zendesk.com/hc/pt-br https://novaescola.zendesk.com/hc/pt-br https://cursos.novaescola.org.br/curso/12075/pre-avancado-b-2-1-parte-1/resumo https://cursos.novaescola.org.br/curso/12075/pre-avancado-b-2-1-parte-1/resumo https://cursos.novaescola.org.br/curso/12075/pre-avancado-b-2-1-parte-1/147431/questionario/19788466/reiniciar This garden is the domain of the Commander's Wife. Looking out through my shatterproof window I've often seen her in it, her knees on a cushion, a light blue veil thrown over her wide gardening hat, a basket at her side with shears in it and pieces of string for tying the flowers into place. A Guardian detailed to the Commander does the heavy digging; the Commander's Wife directs, pointing with her stick. Many of the Wives have such gardens, it's something for them to order and maintain and care for. I once had a garden. I can remember the smell of the turned earth, the plump shapes of bulbs held in the hands, fullness, the dry rustle of seeds through the fingers. Time could pass more swiftly that way. Sometimes the Commander's Wife has a chair brought out, and just sits in it, in her garden. From a distance it looks like peace. She isn't here now, and I start to wonder where she is: I don't like to come upon the Commander's Wife unexpectedly. Perhaps she's sewing, in the sitting room, with her left foot on the footstool, because of her arthritis. Or knitting scarves, for the Angels at the front lines. I can hardly believe the Angels have a need for such scarves; anyway, the ones made by the Commander's Wife are too elaborate. She doesn't bother with the cross-and-star pattern used by many of the other Wives, it's not a challenge. Fir trees march across the ends of her scarves, or eagles, or stiff humanoid figures, boy and girl, boy and girl. They aren't scarves for grown men but for children. Extracted from: ATWOOD, Margaret.
