Through a series of letters, from freshman to senior in college, she shared her life and study with an unknown gentleman, who never wrote back. Here is the very first letter. Mr. Kind, Here I am! I traveled yesterday for four hours in a train. It's a funny experience. I never rode in one before. College is the biggest, most confusing place I get lost whenever I leave my room. I will tell you more later when I'm feeling less puzzled. Now I want to write a letter first just to get me familiar to you. It seems strange to be writing letters to somebody you don't know. It seems strange for me to be writing letters at all I've never written more than three or four in my life, so please overlook it if they are not a model kind. Before leaving yesterday morning, Mrs. Lippett and I had a very serious talk. She told me how to behave, especially towards the kind gentleman who is doing so much for me. I must take care to be very respectful. I have been thinking of you a great deal this summer; having somebody take an interest in me after all these years makes me feel as though I had found a sort of family. It seems as though I belonged to somebody now, and it's a very comfortable feeling. I must say, however, that when I think about you, my imagination has very little to work upon. There are just three things that I know: I .You are tall. II .You are rich. III. You hate girl. I suppose I might call you Mr. Girl-Hater. Only that's rather unpleasant to me. Or Mr. Rich-Man, but that's unpleasant to you, as though money were the only important thing about you. Maybe you won't stay rich all your life; But at least you will stay tall all your life! So I decide to call you Daddy-long-legs. I hope you won't mind. It's just a private pet name we won't tell Mrs. Lippett.The ten o'clock bell is going to ring in two minutes. Our day is divided by bells. We eat and sleep and study by bells. There it goes! Lights out. Good night. You can see how strictly I obey rules due to my training in the John Grier Home.Yours most respectfully,Jerusha Abbott53. Which of the following is NOT the reason for Jerusha to write the letter to Mr.Kind? A. To get her familiar to him. B. To present her thankfulness to him. C. To share her brand-new college life with him. D. To apologize to him for not writing letters too often.54. If Mrs. Lippett learned that the writer calls the man she writes to Daddy-long-legs, she would probably . A. burst into laughter B. think it acceptable C. criticize the writer D. inform the man55. By "when I think about you, my imagination has very little to work upon.", the writer intends to tell us that . A. the man she writes to is dull and boring B. she is not familiar with the one she writes to C. it is not interesting at all to write to a stranger D. she lacks imagination when it comes to writing a letter56. Jerusha was probably while she worked on the letter. A. curious B. light-hearted C. serious D. skepticalC Some expressions in English can be really puzzling. Have a look at the following to see how it challenges your brainpower.Homeric laughter The "Homer" in this expression is the Greek poet. People laugh differently. Some laugh silently, while others tend to laugh loudly. "Homeric laughter" refers to laughter of the latter kind. It is at times uncontrollable, and the entire body shakes during the process. This kind of laughter is called Homeric laughter because this is how the gods laughed in Homer's classics.A three-ring circus When you refer to a situation as being a three-ring circus, you are saying that it is a situation of complete confusion. There are so many activities taking place all together that they leave you confused or annoyed. The expression comes from the world of entertainment the circus. The area where the artists perform their acts is called the "ring". In the past, some of the circuses were so grand that they had three acts taking place
