ed like he was having a great time probably because he was with my mother. SHe is smiling in the picture and wearing a white blouse(女 衬 衫） ,blue shorts and tennis shoes. She is quite a looker(美女） ,I can see why my Dad liked her so much. I dig down to the bottom of the box and see two large photographs. One is dated 1900 and the other one is dated 1997a recent picture that looks similar to the older one. The older picture looks familiar because it is taken in the same placethe summer home. I will describe the older photograph as very interesting in the style of dress and exactly where the people are sitting. They are posed outside the cottage by a small tree that is still there today. A woman is sitting in a rocking chair, with here black hair pulled up in a bun(脑 后的女髻） .She is not smiling but looking away from the camera and wearing a long black dress. Another woman is wearing a white blouse with a necktie(领结 ）and a long black skirt. Her hair is also long and blonder(金 黄色的） but pulled back in a bun. There are two men on either side of a wooden table. BOth men appear older and are dressed in hats and suits and ties,trousers and SUnday shoes. Neither is smiling. (I have the distinct feeling that the women are their wives and it is Sunday.) they probably are hungry for their roast beef and potatoes,but that is just my guess. There is a young boy,probably about 13 in the photograph, He is wearing a white blouse,black shorts,long black socks and tan sports shoes. He is petting a black dog that is sitting on top of the round wooden table. The boy is bending down and he isn39。 t smiling either. It must have been hot outside and he probably wants to go for a swim with the dog. The water is just below them and he is probably wondering why he has to take this stupid picture all dressed up on a Sunday. I notice that the color of my cabin was quite different in 1900 and it was much smaller. The color was green, with white railings(栏 杆 )around the porch and steps leading down to the patio(院子 ). That is where the picture of this Smart Family was taken. The family appears rather stiff in the photo but I am sure that they had a good laugh after the Sunday dinner was served. The second larger photograph is of my own family about 1997. It is also in black and white. We didn39。 t wear andy older clothers but used our own clothes. The tree in the background has grown to enormous heights and is still standing. The steps leading down to Mousam Lake have cracked and are in awful need of repair. Believe it or bot,we still own the old wooden table and all of the rocking chairs owned by the Smart Family. I did a search of the Smart Family and they were originally from Portsmouth(朴茨茅斯） . At least five other families owned my cottage before my father bought it in 1950 for three thousand dollars. The cottage es with thirteen acres of land that I still own along with my seven brothers and sisters. It was passed on to me when my mother died. We have formed the Camp Fund to pay the taxes and preserve our legacy. It is a beautiful cabin on a prime spot on Mousam Lake. I was not here when this photo was taken and it hangs in the livingroom of the cabin. Many vistors ment on it and think it is quite amazing to have a house for so long. The hitory of the house is interesting to view from photographs. Around the table are my brothere Bob just wearing a casual shirt and shorts(smilling), Annie wearing a TShirt and shorts. Mike wearing a white shirt and long nylon trousers not smiling, Mary,whom I couldn39。 t tell what she was wearing,my Mom,her white hair and her beautiful blue eyes and smile,was wearing a peach blouse and slacks,my Dad wasn39。 t alive for this photo, he died in 1986. Lastly in the picture is my brother John,wearing a white vest,trousers and suspenders. He slicked(使光滑、 顺 滑 )back his black hair for the photo to appear in the period style. He wasn39。 t smiling either. The only difference is that my cotaage is painted brown with a larger porch and some additional buildings. My father loved to build things and he was constantly improving the cabin. He built a deck downstairs,and also a dock for his many boats. He also designed a gliding swing and a piic table. All of these photographs remind me that people are not so very different. We all want to enjoy living and be together as a family. The time that families spend together is very valauble. The children wil always remeber the little things that their parents do for them. For me is was my Dad that showed me shese pictures and took the time to tell me the stories beh ind each of them. I thank him dearly for that. unit 3 ： the story of m y romance Tanya got out of the bed while the sun was still asleep. She looked out the window。 even the stars were lost in the dark. Would I be able to watch sunrise today? she asked her heart. She knew the answer but was afraid to tell herself. Mike, her husband was still in bed and so were her four kids. Even their sleep couldn39。 t elude her from doing them service. She had to orchestrate her work to the microscopic details. From pressin g clothes to polishing shoes, finding matching socks to arranging school bags, fixing up breakfast to preparing snackboxes, she was unthankfully supposed to make it all happen like a magic wand. And to her own pulsory fault, she did it all。 like a magic ran like a wheel. The circle started every morning and ended up late in the night, and then morning appeared again. There was no pause, no rest, not even a slight curve to insert change. She condemned herself for not experiencing even a thought of ever getting out of this circle. She had mitted herself to the orbit of life. Coming out of the bathroom, she turned and looked at her bushed face in the mirror and gasped a tired answer to her long a。
