Dear Nora,
The big news here is our car. Kate, Lisa, and I finally convinced Joe that the old tin can would fall to pieces if It was driven up once more. But just wait till you read what my serious, conservative husband bought—a bright bright-and-yeliow hard-top convertible with white-wall tires and feather upholstery! The kids'are in seventh heaven and, frankly, I'm pretty thrilled myself.
Joe gets his vacation in June, so don't be surprised to see this vision on wheels come hocking at your front door.
And as if that wasn't excitement enough, Carl Evans came home from his study overseas with a wife! Dora's a lovely girl who lived next door to his in America. They have rented the little yellow house on the corner of Tung Garden. We were over for a buffet dinner Friday night, and can Dora cook! We all kissed our diets good- bye that night. I am enclosing her recipe for a wonderful cake called plum cake. I've tried it, and it just melts in your mouth.
Aside from the usual drugstore gossip to the effect that Jane Broder is going steady with Gene Newsom and that Mrs. Mann has painted her house shocking pink, there is nothirg new here.
Let us hear all about Gerald. I'm sure Jack love his new job, since nothing but a chance to work in Japan could have induced you all to move away. We really do miss you, so please write a long, long letter.
Affectionately,
Mary

听力原文:M: Hi, Mary, how are you today?
W: I'm fine, Vince. How are you?
M: Pretty well. Are you going to Joe's party tonight?
W: I want to but I can't. I have to work.
M: Oh, you have a job? I didn't know that.
W: I work at McDonald's. I'm the assistant manager. But I want to get a different job. My major is accounting so I want a job where I have more responsibility for money.
M: Why don't you try my father's company?
W: What kind of company does he work for?
M: He's the personnel manager of Jackson and Sons. It's a construction company.
W: That sounds like it might be interesting. Do you know what kinds of jobs they have?
M: Well, I don't know for sure. But he said they need twenty five or thirty new people. They plan to hire them in June. They'll work until the end of August or the beginning of September.
W: I'd better check pretty soon. If I get a job there I'll have to stop working at McDonald's in May.
M: I'll tell my father that you are interested in working for his company. Then you can call him and make an appointment to go and talk with him about it, I'll tell him tomorrow.
W: Good, then I'll call him the day after tomorrow. Thanks a lot, Vince.

A.At McDonald's.

My life, by Joe Wrigley, will keep all fans of Joe's stories happy for hours. It explains a lot about where his ideas come from and gives a picture of what was happening in his life when he was working on his most successful books. I must say, though, that some of it is difficult to understand if you haven't read his other books.
Now, for those of you who like a good cry, Goodbye to the fields, by Susan Marks, tells the sad story of John, a small boy who has to leave the countryside he loves when the family move to London because of his father's job. John and his mother would prefer to stay where they are. It's a long time before the family begins to feel comfortable living in the big city.
There are plenty of books with helpful advice this week. First, the A-Z of photography would make a great present for anyone just starting out with a camera. It has everything you need to know to take really good photos, and learn about cameras, film, lighting and so on. This is not one for the experienced photographer, though — there's not much advanced information here.
Turning to the kitchen, Cooking for one, by Adrian White, says on its cover that even people who hate cooking will find it useful. A month ago, I couldn't even boil an egg, but now I'm producing all sorts of dishes, some quite difficult, and, yes, they taste quite good, too. I'rn actually enjoying cooking now. I'm now going to try a new book about cooking Italian food.
The last book this week is Holidays in Europe, by Mary Curtis. This is an enjoyable read, which will start your imagination working as you plan for next year's holiday. It doesn't matter that the writer doesn't talk about the famous places everyone visits, but describes lots of small places away from the main tourist areas. The maps are too small to be useful but the book is still good value for money.
That's it for this week, then. Next week, there's a special report on giving books as presents, so if you've saved up your money and you're wondering what to get for a friend or relation for their birthdays, you might get some good ideas. I'll look forward to talking to you then.
To really understand My life you need to
A.read it very slowly.
B.know about the writer's life.
C.read the writer's other books.
