02.Story by Cris, THE YOUNG AND PRODIGIOUS T.S. SPIVET( short 09/50 )

THE YOUNG AND PRODIGIOUS T.S. SPIVET( short 09/50 )

Inorder to finish my project and get out of saying Gracie's blain, I had to end this Tapioca to the rest field.

One night, in a Bette Davis face, Gracie launched into a heated diatribe about father's museum setting hall.

Is it even conceivable that the cowboy museum or rather, mausoleum could be turned into a normal living room where normal people could relax and have normal conversation?

My father, Tecumseh Elijah Spivet, was born 100 years too late.

He had the soul, stature, and mindset of a cowboy.

For him talking was a necessary chore, as shoeing a horse.

Cellphone reception was nowhere to be found at coppertop ranch and father refused to install a telephone in Gracie's room.

And you heard in the voice? Her looks .Yeah, its no wonder in history of Miss America pagents Miss Montana never won. Except, the worst selection ever!

Point:

in order to do sth

She arrived early in order to get a good seat.

In order to get a complete picture, further information is needed.

conceivable

It is conceivable that I'll see her tomorrow.

a beautiful city with buildings of every conceivable age and style

diatribe (against sb / sth)

mindset

chore

Shopping's a real chore for me.

(it's) no / little / small wonder (that)...

It is little wonder (that) she was so upset.

No wonder you're tired, you've been walking for hours.

And you heard in the voice? Her looks .Yeah, its no wonder in history of Miss America pagents Miss Montana never won. Except, the worst selection ever! 你听到她的声音了,是吧?看她那身材!你就知道为啥从来没有蒙大拿女人赢下美国小姐大赛了 蒙大拿女人就像史上最糟糕的选择!
