Dear Mr. Scott， I expect you may be slightly surprised to receive a letter from your next﹣door neighbor， but I have to raise a theme that it will be easier for me to discuss in writing． You may have noticed that I have a line of apple trees running along the fence（栅栏）that separates our two gardens． You may also have felt happy when you see your two children sitting on your grass by the fence． And you may also have noticed that my apple trees bend over the fence and seem to look down at your children with interest． It is only natural that your children should sometimes seem to return that interest． And it is quite legal（合法的）for them to show that interest by picking all the apples that hang over on your side of the fence． But to tell you the truth， Mr. Scott， I am tired of seeing your children， day after day， destroy the branches of every one of my apple trees． And it seems that a war has been fought on one side of my apple trees． Besides， I am more tired of waking up on these fine autumn mornings to find even the apples on MY side of the fence much less in number． I know this too is the work of your children， since last night I was woken at midnight by the noise they were making when climbing one of my trees， and （as they may have told you） I drove them away． Yours sincerely， Becky Aldrin |

Martina looked out of the window． A robin was singing a lively song in the tree． At this time， Grandpa， who lived with the family since Grandma had died， came in． He looked at the floor as if looking for something． He said， "When the robin sings…" he stopped， trying to remember what he had started to say．
"Spring is here，" Mum finished the sentence． "And I'm thinking of our spring cleaning，" Mum suggested． "Martina， you can help me， right？" Martina agreed unwillingly．
They cleaned the house． They cleaned upstairs， downstairs， inside， outside， until everything was clean． Then Mum pointed to Grandpa's sofa and shouted． "That old sofa has got to go． We'll buy Grandpa a new one．"
It was true and Martina had to agree． The sofa was really old． As they tried to move the sofa， Grandpa stood in their way． "You can't take my sofa，" he shouted．
"It's old，" Mum said． Grandpa tried to push his sofa back into place． "We'll buy you a new one，" Mum promised．
"I don't want a new one，" Grandpa insisted． Mum let go of the sofa． "We'll talk about it tonight when John gets home．" John， Martina's dad， was still at work．
"Why don't you let us take away the sofa？ It's too old!" Martina asked when the family were having supper． Grandpa shook his head and said， "I sat in this sofa， with your grandma right here， when I asked her to marry me． It was so long ago， but when I sit in this sofa and close my eyes I feel she is near．"
"It's amazing，" Martina thought， "how Grandpa can remember things from the past． These days he forgets almost everything．"
The old man smiled to Martina and went on． "And the night your father was born， I sat in this sofa． I was nervous when they placed the little baby into my arms．"
"I think I'm beginning to understand，" Martina said． "Many years later，" Grandpa continued， "I sat in this sofa when the doctor called and told me that your grandma was ill． I was lost without her， but the sofa gave me the comfort．"
"I do see now，" Martina looked at Grandpa． "This is not just an old sofa． This sofa is more like a friend．" "Yes，" Grandpa added． "We've got through a lot together．" The whole family agreed that the living room would be boring without the old sofa．
