Matildaを通勤時間に読み進める。

地下鉄が通ってから、快適に10分で
通勤出来るけれど、一章位しか進まない。。

中々纏った時間が取れないのがちょっと悩み。。

Matildaの
担任のMiss.Honeyのお話し。

'I don't take a bath.'Miss Honey said.
'I wash standing up.I get a bucketful of water and I
heat it on this little stove and strip and wash myself all over'

'Do you honestly do that?'Matilda asked.
' Of course I do.'Miss Honey said.

' Every poor person in England used to washthat way
until not so very long ago.And they didn't have a Primus.
They had heat the water over the fire in the hearth.'
