亚当和莎莉午夜兴奋地读着他们的信。 “这是克里斯托姨妈寄来的！”莎莉说。 “我们好多年没见过她了。” “她为什么给我们写信？”亚当隔着莎莉的肩膀看书，问道。

Dear Sally and Adam, I hope you are well. Would you like to come and stay! Uncle Matt and I have to go away next week and it would the lovely for your cousin Max to see you after so many years. Hope you can come! Love and kisses, Aunt Crystal

亲爱的莎莉和亚当，我希望你们一切都好。 你愿意来住吗？马特叔叔和我下周要走了，你表弟马克斯在这么多年后见到你会很高兴的。 希望你能来！爱你和吻你，克里斯托姨妈

"Great!" said Adam. "They live in a big old house. We can explore." Sally didn't reply. She was looking at the photo Aunt Crystal had sent with her letter. Matt, me and darting Max "So that's Max," Adam said. "I hope he likes cats." Adam didn't go anywhere without his cat, Tigs. "I hope he likes us," said Sally.

“太好了！”亚当说。“他们住在一所大旧房子里。 我们可以探索。”莎莉没有回答。 她看着克里斯托姑妈随信寄来的照片。 “原来是麦克斯，”亚当说。 “我希望他喜欢猫。”亚当走哪都带着他的猫，提格斯。 “我希望他喜欢我们，”莎莉说。
