What did Terry not approve of？
A．Letting outside of the houses in Jenkins Street.
B．The height of the houses in Jenkins Street.
C．The way Leslie managed to look over the wall.
D．His father's concern for other people's feelings.
"Why do we want a row of trees as well as a wall？" Terry asked his father.
His father said, "For privacy. These trees grow very thickly."
His father's love of privacy often puzzled Terry, who was not one to keep himself to himself, but he could see part of the point here. The houses in Jenkins Street were on higher ground. His friend Leslie lived in number twelve, and Leslie had only to stand on a box to see right over the wall.
"Will the trees grow higher than the wall？" Terry asked then.
"Oh. Yes, twice as high if not more. It'll take a few years but they'll grow.
So they were going to have nine trees thirty feet tall, to keep them from being over-looked. Terry wondered why this was so desirable. He said, "Our garden is very pretty. Why can't we let the people over the wall see it？ That wouldn't be showing off, would it？"
"No, I don't think it would be," his father said, "Yet some people might feel a bit less happy if they can always see a good thing that isn't theirs. We don't want to be the cause of any jealousy if we can help it."
This consideration for other people's feelings must be a grownup thing, Terry thought. It was no his idea of how to run things. He said, "These trees—it seems a lot of trouble to go just to stop people being jealous of us."
His father looked at him. "It isn't much trouble. Terry. "He said, "These trees will grow without help from us. They'll be beautiful. And listen to them. You can already hear them whispering to us in the wind."
