Lesson11 A Daughter
Sally was¹ nineteen years old. She had² always lived with her parents, but nowthe time had come for her to go to university³ in another part⁴ of thecountry. Her mother was a little sad and also afraid because she loved herdaughter very much, and she thought⁵, "My little girl will be alone⁶ for thefirst time in her life⁷. She won't know anybody⁸. There will be nobody⁹ to lookafter her, and perhaps¹⁰ she'll have trouble¹¹, or will feel low¹² and we won't bethere to help her."Sally said¹³ goodbye to her father and to her cat, and promised¹⁵ to telephoneevery week.
Then every week Sally kept her promise¹⁴ and telephoned. Sally was always veryhappy and never said that she missed her parents.
Then holidays were getting near. That week, when Sally telephoned herparents, she said, "My friends all said that they were very happy to returnhome again soon."Sally's mother was very glad. "She must really miss us,' she thought. Thenshe said, "Did¹⁶ you say that too?""Oh,yes!" Sally answered."We all agreed¹⁷ that it's easy to speak to ourparents on the telephone every week when we're away, but we really miss ourpets!"

女儿
萨利十九岁，她一直和父母住在一起，但她现在要去国内另一个地方上大学了。她的母亲有点难过，也很担心，因为她非常爱自己的女儿，她想，“这将是我的小女第一次独自一人生活，她不认识其他人，没有人来照顾她，而且她可能会遇到麻烦，或情绪低落，而我们不能在那里帮助她。”
萨利向父亲和她的猫道了别，并且答应每周打电话。
之后，萨利每周依约打电话。她总是很快乐，而且从不说她想念父母。
假期临近了。这一周，当萨利给父母打电话说：“我的朋友都说很高兴马上就回家了。
”
萨利的母亲颇为高兴。“她准是非常想我们，”她想。然后她问：“你也这么说了吗？
”
“噢，是的！”萨利答：“我们都认为和父母在电话里要比在家时面对面地讲话容易得多，可是我们真的很想念我们的宠物！”
