D. Answer the questions（依据短文内容回答问题）（12 分）

One day on my way home from work, while looking out of the window of my car. I saw several blue flowers on the side of the highway. As a lady, I couldn’t move my eyes from them. What beautiful flowers! But they seemed to be a bit lonely as there were no other flowers around. An idea came to me-I should bring them home so that I could take care of them. Those flowers would grow better, I thought.

The next day I took a shovel（铲子） and planned to dig them. However, I returned

from work very late that day. So the digging was put off until the next week. But different excuses sTOPped me every time I drove near the flowers.

Until one morning, I was disappointed to see that the highway had been rebuilt and the pretty blue flowers were gone. I realized I had waited too long and missed the chance.

A week ago, I learned one of my friends had cancer（癌）. This bad news deeply saddened me. Although we don’t live very far away from each other, we haven’t seen each other as often as we both would have wanted. I have always thought there is enough time for us to meet. But now, we have little time.

Suddenly, I see the message the blue flowers and my friend bring to me. God has given us some time to plant some wonderful memories that will flower every year for us. But we should catch the chance as time waits for no man.
