Another Letter from Miguel
米蓋爾的另一封信

Dear Mama,
I can't believe it! I'll be home in a couple of weeks.This has been the greatest vacation I've ever had,My English is pretty good now. I can understand almost everything--except on the phone. I've made many new friends and learned lots of new things. For example,Mama, believe it or not, some Americans spend more hours watching T.V. than working at their jobs. It's true! I read it in an American paper.
I called the Monteros last week. They were very happy to see me. You're right. They have a daughter my age. She is happily married, has two children, and sends her regards, They all send their regards. Mrs. Montero cried when we talked about the people she hasn't seen in years. I felt a little sorry for her. She wants to go back to Colombia for a visit, but I don't think they have the money.
On the brighter side, I'm sending you another photograph of Marta. Don't worry.I'm not going to do anything 'foolish,' but I want you to be able to recognize her.
Love, Miguel

親愛的媽媽：
我簡直不相信，再過兩個星期我就要回家了。在我所有的假期中，這次是最名符其實的?，F(xiàn)在我的英語相當好。除了在電話中有點困難外，其它的我都能聽明白。我交了許多新朋友，學到了許多新東西。比如，媽媽，也許您不信，一些美國人看電視的時間比工作的時間要長的多。這是真的，我是從報紙上看到的。
上星期，我拜訪了蒙特羅斯一家。他們見到我很高興。您說得對，他們有一個女兒和我同歲。她婚姻美滿，已經(jīng)有了兩個孩子，她問您好。他們?nèi)叶甲屛掖鷨柲谩Ｃ商亓_斯太太聽到談起她幾年沒見的朋友時都哭了。我覺得有點對不起她。她想回哥倫比亞看看，不過我看他們的錢不夠。
正如您所見，我又給您寄了一張瑪塔的照片。別擔心，我不會干什么“蠢事”，我只想讓您能認識她。
愛您的：米蓋爾

孩子們：
又到星期五了，我得到九點一刻才能回家。晚飯在冰箱里。佩吉，你把燉菜熱熱，再做點沙拉。蘇西，你擺桌子。比利和杰克，我要你們擦桌子、洗碗并把它們放好。然后開始做你們每周都做的家務。不干家務就不給你們零花錢。佩吉，你擦洗一下洗澡間。那里太臟了。杰克，你知道怎么用吸塵器。把地毯和地板打掃一下，好嗎？那么你呢，比利，你把地下室亂七八糟的東西整理整理。真不知道你們在那兒都干了些什么，工具放得到處都是。蘇西，你幫比利打掃。爸爸大概在六點半回家。你們要在他回家前把晚飯準備好。好嗎，孩子們？祝你們吃頓好飯，噢，對了，點心，你們可以吃點巧克力蛋糕。不過，可千萬別忘了，給你們辛苦工作的媽媽留點兒。

Yesterday was the opening of the Space Building here at the World's Fair. Many famous scientists, architects, and diplomats were present. There was something for everybody.Messrs. Wood, Glass, and Stone, who are the architects of the building, attended the ceremonies. The building, which looks like a big glass cube, is as modern as its exhibitions.A large crowd listened to the many speeches of the diplomats. Among the listeners was a little boy. He was about seven years old, had curly black hair and big brown eyes, and was eating an ice cream sandwich. "Are you enjoying the speeches?" I asked. "No." he said, "they're boring. ""Then why are you here?" Because it's not as boring as home. "There you have it. Another day at the Fair.
