听名著练听力之简爱篇 第81期

I stayed one month at Moor¹ House. In that time, I came² to love the little house, and the wild³, beautiful fields⁴ around it, just like Diana and Mary did⁵. We read books together and talked about them. Diana began to teach me the German⁶ language⁷, and I helped Mary with her drawing⁸. [-----1-----], so we spent the days and nights very happily⁹ together.
But St. John hardly¹⁰ ever¹¹ spent time with us. He was¹² usually visiting poor and sick people in a little village called Morton, near to our house. Even¹⁴ if the rain fell¹⁵ and the wind blew, he always went there. I did not think St. John was a happy person¹⁶. Often, [-----2-----].

I knew that Diana and Mary were planning¹⁷ to leave Moor House soon, to work as¹³ governesses. St. John and Hannah the old lady would¹⁸ go back to the church¹⁹ man's house in Morton. I knew my time at Moor House was almost²⁰ over. I asked St. John if he had²¹ found²² any work for me.

"Yes," he said²³, "but it is a job with little money, so you may not want it. I would like to open a girls' school in the town of Morton. I have a building for the school, and there is a small house for the teacher to live in. A lady named Miss Oliver has kindly²⁴ paid²⁵ for the house's furniture²⁶. Will you come to Morton, and teach at the school? [-----3-----]. But you would receive²⁷ thirty pounds²⁸ a year, and no more."
