克莱门蒂娜猛地推开百叶窗,让加勒比海凉爽的晨风吹进来。然后她摇了摇头。“今天我不能去赶集,妈妈。我有一篇英语作文要写。”妈妈靠一只胳膊肘撑着,眉头皱起。“你脑子够用,卖芒果和写作文两件事都耽误不了。”“可是,妈妈……”“别大惊小怪的。妈妈有病出不了门,爸爸外出打鱼。我们需要鸡蛋和面粉,可买它们需要钱。你卖芒果的时候,作文就想出来了,别担心。” Clementina slams the shutters and blows in the cool morning winds of the Caribbean Sea. Then she shook her head. “I can’t go to the fair today, Mom. I have an English composition to write.” Mom held her on one elbow, her brow furrowed. “Your mind is enough, selling mangos and writing texts are not going to fall into place.”“ But, Mom...”“ Don’t make a fuss. Mom can’t get out of the door and my dad goes fishing. We need to Eggs and flour, you can buy them and you need money. When you sell mangoes, the composition comes out. Don’t worry.”
