Many years ago, I bought a house in Sunshine Town, and we still go there every summer. The first time we stayed there, our neighbour Mary came and brought us a box with some tomatoes and a bottle of wine(葡萄酒) in it. It was nice of her to do it. But when we looked at the tomatoes, we were worried because they looked terrible: not at all like the nice, round, shiny things you get in a supermarket. And the wine was cloudy, in a funny old bottle with no label(标签) on it. These couldn't be any good, we thought.
But we were thankful for her kindness, so we tried them.
What a wonderful taste! Those tomatoes made me think of the ones my uncle grew when I was a child. Nowadays supermarket tomatoes look perfect but they have a taste of water. Nobody's going to have a happy memory of those. Mary's wine may be cloudy and come out of an old bottle, but it was perfect.
It's good to eat things at the correct time, when they're in season, and as close as possible to where they were grown. What Mary gives us is the taste of Sunshine Town.
注:每题答案不超过5个单词。
1. When do we usually go to Sunshine Town?
2. Were Mary's tomatoes good-looking or bad-looking?
3. What does the underlined word "them" in Paragraph 1 refer to?
4. What taste do "I" feel nowadays supermarket tomatoes have?
5. Please write a title(标题) for this passage.
