Answer the questions:
Back in her room, Miss Polly opened the letter from a far away town in the west and read it again.
Miss Polly,
I have sad news for you! Your sister’s husband, John died two weeks ago. He left a girl, 11 years
old, behind him.
John was the minister (牧师) in the church here, and wasn’t very rich. Nobody could care for
her now, only you, her family in the east. John spoke of this before he died.
Can you take care of her We can put Pollyanna on the train to come to you. When I get your
answer, I can tell you the day and time of the train.
Jeremiah O. White
Miss Polly sat with the letter and thought of her sister Jennie, the girl’s mother. When Jennie was
twenty, she wanted to marry young John for love. Her parents weren’t happy about it, but she
didn’t listen to them. She married, left home, and went west with her husband.
Miss Polly remembered it well. Of course Jennie wrote for a time. Her letters told them about her
little girl. Jennie gave her the name Pollyanna after her two sisters, Polly and Anna. Some years
later, a letter came to them from a small town in the west. It was from John and brought sad news.
Jennie was dead.
Miss Polly thought about the past 25 years. She was 40 years old. Her parents and sisters were all
dead. The big family house and money were now in her name. Some people said to her, “Why
don’t you live with a friend ” But she didn’t want a friend, she liked living alone and quietly. And
now ...
