原文
My daughter, Jane, never dreamed of receiving a letter from a girl of her own age in Holland. Last year, we were traveling across the Channel and Jane put a piece of paper with her name and address on it into a bottle. She threw the bottle into the sea. She never thought of it again, but ten months later, she received a letter from a girl in Holland. Both girls write to each other regularly now. However, they have decided to use the post office. Letters will cost a little more, but they will certainly travel faster.
译文
我的女儿简从来没有想到能和一个和她年龄相仿的荷兰女孩通信。去年,我们横渡英吉利海峡,詹妮把一个记载她名字地址的漂流瓶放入大海。之后,她就没有再想它,但是10个月之后,她收到一个来自荷兰的女孩回信。现在她们定期给彼此写信。最终,她们选择使用邮政来寄信。虽然这样会增加一些开销,但是她们希望信件能更快到达对方。
