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: When my husband was promoted, we put our house up for sale. Three weeks later, it was still on the market. I became a busy housekeeper. Every room had to be kept tidy and dishes had to be washed and put away when used. Then one day, the door bell rang unexpectedly at 8 am. Sleepily I opened the door and saw our agent standing there with a couple from New York. "There was no time to call," he explained, "the couple has to catch a plane home." The three people made their way past the dirty breakfast dishes on the kitchen table and entered a bedroom with unmade beds. As I retreated into a bathroom to comb my hair, I heard the man say something to his wife. Then they both laughed. Two days later the agent phoned to tell me that the couple had bought the house. He repeated what the couple had said when he handed over the check the following day, "That house has a warm lived-in feeling just like ours."
