Margaret s Letter

陈裕明

Jack is going to take care of his Auntie Margarets flat while she is on holiday. She needs someone to come by and feed her cat and her parrot.

When he arrives， he finds a long note on the doormat. Read the note and write short answers to the questions below.

Sorry I cant wait for you to arrive. Its now four oclock and I must hurry to catch the train. I dont think youll have any problems. Ive left a few notes around the flat to help you.

The most important thing is to remember to take the keys every time when you go out， so that you can get back in again. You must feed Tootsie twice a day. Ive left her food for tonight in the fridge. Dont give her any more milk today （see note on fridge）. Please give Polly her usual quantity of seed this evening.

Im sure your mother knows where everything is， so phone her if you cant find anything. If anything goes wrong， you can phone me at 5651351.

See you next week.

Love，

Auntie Margaret
