Dear Child:（亲爱的孩子）I am writing this slow because I know that you cant read fast.（我写的很慢因为我知道你不能读得很快）We dont live where we did when you left home. （当你离家后我们就不住在原来住的地方了）Your dad read in the paper that most accidents happen within 20 miles from your home so we moved.（因为你爸爸在报纸上看到在你家的20英里附近最容易发生交通事故，所以我们搬家了）I wont be able to send you the address, as the last family that lived here took the house numbers when they left so that they wouldnt have to change their address.（我不可以把这里的地址寄给你，因为上一户住过这里的人家走的时候把门牌号码拿走了，因为这样他们就不必改换住址了）This place is real nice.
