Dear Benter,
  You have been away exactly two weeks today but it seems more like two years to me!
  I’m glad to hear you’ll be back soon. Are you coming directly home, dear? Or do you plan to make some stops   36  the way? I hope you’ll be home in  37 for Patsy’s birthday next Sunday. She is  38 you to show films to her  39 friends.
Patsy keeps asking every day  40 you’ll be back. She says you never  41  that story you were telling her about  42 train that lost its “ toot”(喇叭嘟嘟声). You’d better   43  and think up a good ending  44 it. You know how Patsy is? She  45 be happy until she knows exactly what ­__46  to the “toot” and  47 the little train got it back  48 !
  Everything at home is fine except that we  49 you so much! I’ve been  50 with the spring cleaning. Yesterday I had Cora  51 in to wash the kitchen walls and she did a very good __52 of it. The kitchen looks as though it’s been repainted. I made some new yellow curtains, and they  53 very beautiful.
  I went to see your mother yesterday. Her  54 is all gone and she looks very  55 . Your sister Jean looks wonderful! She has taken off about fifteen pounds since she began dieting. But now she’s complaining that none of her clothes fit!
Hope to see you before next Sunday.
  Love and kisses to you!
                      Yours
                            Lynn

I'm writing this letter slowly because I know you can't read fast. We don't live where we did when you left home. Your dad read in the newspaper that most accidents happened within 20 miles from our home, so we moved.
I won't be able to send you the address because the last family that lived here took the house numbers when they moved so that they wouldn't have to change their address. This place is really nice. It even has a washing machine. I'm not sure it works so well though: last week I put a load in and pulled the chain (拉链) and haven't seen them since. The weather isn't bad here. It only rained twice last week; the first time for three days and the second time for four days. About that coat you wanted me to send you, your uncle Stanley said it would be too heavy to send in the mail with the buttons on so we cut them off and put them in the pockets.
John locked his keys in the car yesterday. We were really worried because it took him two hours to get me and your father out. Your sister had a baby this morning, but I haven't found out what it is yet. The baby looks just like your brother.
Uncle Ted fell in a whiskey vat(桶)last week. Some men tried to pull him out, but he fought them off playfully and drowned. We had him cremated(焚化)and he burned for three days.
Three of your friends went off a bridge in a pick-up trunk. Ralph was driving. He rolled down the window and swam to safety. You other two friends were in back. They drowned because they couldn't get the tail gate down.
There isn't much more news at this time. Nothing much has happened.
Love,
Mom
P.S. I was going to send you some money but the envelope was already sealed.
