翻译：

乔.桑德斯拥有我们镇上最漂亮的花园。几乎每个人都参加每年举办的“最佳花园竞赛”，而每次都是乔获胜。比尔.弗里斯的花园比乔的花园大，他比乔也更为勤奋，种植的花卉和蔬菜也更多，但乔的花园更富有情趣。他修筑了一条条整洁的小路，并在一个池塘上架了一座小木桥。我也喜欢花园，但我却不愿意辛勤劳动。每年的花园竞赛我也参加，但总因是镇上最劣的花园而获得一个小奖！

关键句型：形容词、副词的比较级和最高级
英语中的形容词、副词，表示“比较”和“最”这样的概念时，用特别的形式称为比较级和最高级。有两种基本形式：第一种是单音节的adj.或adv.变比较级或最高级直接加er或est。例如hot → hotter → hottest；tall → taller → tallest；large → larger → largest；另外一种是多音节的（三音节及以上的）adj.或adv.变比较级或最高级前面加more或most。例如interesting → more interesting → most interesting；beautiful → more beautiful → most beautiful；
