Dear Nancy,

    Thanks for your letter. It was great to read all your news. I was sorry to hear about Matthew's 36 . You said he had a broken leg in it,didn’t you? Is he out of hospital now? Send him our best wishes 37 a quick (康复) .

    Well,we have news for you,too — some good,38 not so good. Jim's grandmother left us last Sunday. We got a phone call at lunchtime,to say that she fell in the kitchen. 39,we didn't arrive in time to see her. I hope you 40 that she was ill for some time. We loved her. We will quite miss her.

    One piece of good news,41 ，is that Jim got a new job. Perhaps you remember him losing his job when the car factory closed? He went for a lot of interviews (面试) , 42 they all said he was too old.I mean,he’s only 45!Thankfully,a school phoned him yesterday to 43 him a job,training mechanics (机修工) .So he's really excited Another piece of good news is that Irene finally found an apartment to buy. I’m so happy for her!It's so 44 these days for young people to do that. Wish her good luck!

    That's all 45 news for today. It's time for me to cook dinner. Write soon!

Love,Carrie
