　　It is a real mother who wrote the letter — a mother's letter written 30 years ago to a daughter who was then a baby.

　　My darling Linda,

　　It seems strange to be sitting here writing to you,

　　my little girl,

　　while you sit at the nursery table,

　　so good and quiet. And you will not read my letter for 20,

　　30—perhaps 40 years! It is a strange,

　　grown­up woman I am writing to—a woman I don't know at all. But that woman will be you,

　　Linda,

　　and because I love her,

　　I want her to have all the happiness that life can offer,

　　I don't want that happiness to be spoilt—spoilt by me,

　　her own mother. When you read this letter I shall be an old lady like Grandmama,

　　like all the other old ladies we know and I don't intend to let you suffer what I have suffered from the selfishness of the old. So I am telling you,

　　here and now,

　　that when the time comes you must put me into a rest home. Don't worry about what anyone says—don't worry about anything I shall say—just be firm,

　　and send me away.

　　For when I am old I shall make funny demands on you. I shall expect to come and live with you,

　　as Grandmama lives with us. I shall criticize your husband,

　　and keep telling you how badly you are bringing up your children. All day long you will have to listen to my chatter,

　　and force yourself to answer politely: my bits and pieces will be left about all over the house for you to clear up.

　　My darling,

　　I know I've been through it all myself；I've seen my friends to go through it with their mothers；and I am determined not to let you go through it too. So when the time comes,

　　will you promise not to put up with it? Promise to send me away and live your own life—this is the thing that matters. Never mind what that old lady says—the one who is still called your mother. She is not really your mother any longer.

　　21．When did the mother want her daughter to see her letter?

　　A．Just that time.

　　B．After her daughter married.

　　23．According to the mother,

　　what would weaken her daughter's determination to send her to a rest home?

　　A．Traditional trend and the law.

　　B．Others' opinions and her mother's attitude.

　　C．Pressure from her relatives.

　　D．Love from her mother.

　　24．What kind of people did the mother expect herself to be?

　　A．A kind old lady.

　　B．A real mother.

　　C．Grandmama.

　　D．A deserted woman.
