And the sunflower is a good case in point. The sunflower has been grown in Britain for four centuries, but it spent a long time out of favour. For years it was looked upon as something of a joke flower, climbing to a ridiculous height and bearing a top-heavy head that soon sagged and withered away. Some people grew them for their edible seeds, while school-children, interested by their size, strove to rival the world record of about seven metres. Not even the labours of the great artists such as Vincent van Gogh could transform the sunflowers unfashionable image. But in the past two or three years, all this has changed. Vases of sunflowers appear in the corners of smart shops, departments and boutiques. They creep into the background of graceful advertisements for high fashion. Seed businessmen and florists report unprecedented demand for them for gardens and ambitious indoor arrangements.ScriptBook 4-Unit 1rSuppose you are traveling in your city, would you like to travel on foot?rWhat are the benefits and drawbacks of a walking tour compared with a bus tour?rWhat places are suitable for a walking tour?
