Mrs Black was a poor old woman and she lived in a small village. Her husband died ten years ago. But she had a 24—year—old daughter. Her name was Alice. She worked in New York and lived there. It was far away from her mother’s village, and she was not happy about this. One day Alice said to her mother, “I’ve found a good job in Boston, and I can make a lot of money there, so I will go to work in Boston next week. But don’t worry, Mum, I’ll send you some money every week,’’
A month later, Mrs Black was very angry. She decided(决定) to go to see her daughter in Boston on a train. When she saw her daughter , she said ,“Alice , why do you never call me ?”
Alice laughed , “But mother ,” she said , “you haven’t got a telephone .”
“No”, she answered , “I haven’t , but you have got one .”
