Unit 16 Paul emails home LESSON 31 Dear Mum and Dad, I'm emailing you through the Redstone Ranch website. You can email me back on paul. bruce@redstoneranch. com. I'll call you next week, when I can use a Broadband phone. My assessment at Redstone was a bit strange. They asked me to do a lot of tick-box tests. Then we did some outdoor activities. They told me to lead someone up an easy climb. Then they asked me to lead a small group, in kayaks, on white water. After that, the main question was, ‘Where did you learn all these “ back- country skills" . I said, ‘I grew up in “ back country" . In Scotland, I sometimes skied to school. ' They liked that. Also, my time in the London Marathon was big news. Three hours or less is magic! I met the top guy, Ed, and he asked me to start next week. Of course I said yes. I won't be able to travel much in the US this time, but it's great to have this chance. I'll live free, too! Redstone will pay all my expenses. Talk to you next week! Love, Paul

保罗给家里发电子邮件 亲爱的爸爸和妈妈， 我正通过雷德斯通牧场的网站给你们发邮件。你们可以往paul.bruce@ redstoneranch.com给我回邮件。我下周就能给你们打宽频电话了。 在雷德斯通他们对我的测评方式有些独特。他们让我做了很多在框中划勾的测试。然后我们进行了一些室外活动。他们先让我带着一个人做了简单的登山活动，然后让我带着一小组人在湍流中划了小皮艇。 之后，主要的问题是:“你是在哪里学会这些野外技能的?”我说:“我就是在偏远山区长大的。在苏格兰，我有时滑雪去学校。”他们听了很高兴。我在伦敦马拉松比赛上的成绩也很捧。3小时以内已经是个奇迹了! 我见了负责人埃德。他让我下星期开始实习。我当然答应了。这回我在美国没什么时间旅游了，但得到这个机会很不错，我还可以免费吃住!雷德斯通会支付我的所有费用。 下星期再和你们聊! 爱你们的， 保罗
