THE RAILWAY CHILDREN - 8

  "I thought I was going to miss you!" she shouted, and pushed a letter into his hand, through the window, as the train moved away.

  The old gentleman sat back in his seat and opened the letter. This is what he read :

 

Dear Mr(we do not know your name),

  Mother is ill and the doctor says we must give her these things at the end of the letter, but we haven't enough money to get them. We do not know anybody her except you, because Father is away and we do not know his address. Father will pay you, or if he has lost all his money, Peter will pay you when he is a man. We promise it.

  Please give the things to the Station Master, because we do not know which train you come back on. Tell him the things are for Peter, the boy who was sorry about the coal, then he will understand.

  Bobbie Phyllis Peter

나름 꽤 까다로운 문장도 있으니 주의하고, 어떻게 하면 감동적인 글이 될까, 생각해보길 바랍니다. 다시 한 번 말하지만

자기 글에 영혼을 담는다는 생각이 없으면, 그 글은 죽은 글입니다.
