“I don’t need time.”
“Splendid,” said the Devil.“Your friend Brian now has his heart’s greatest desire.And you have exactly sixtynine hours and fiftythree minutes to draft a letter convincing him to give it up.I’d find a pen,if I were you.”
Peter already knew what Brian’s greatest desire was,and he knew exactly what he would write.
Brian,
I’m sorry,my friend.It has been far too long since we spoke.My life has been in a stupor lately,but today I woke.
I’m sure this letter will find you watching your daughter walk for the very first time.I know that’s a hill you thought she’d never climb.It’s a miracle I cannot explain;but I know that tumor(瘤) is now gone from her brain.
As for the stranger who delivered this note,tell him this is number seven.I can’t wait to share the full story,my friend,when we meet in heaven.
This gift that I send you today was a wonderful lesson for me to learn.Enjoy it,and know that I want nothing in return.
For me,my time has come to an end.But I’m proud to be your reliable friend.
As for Peter Crown,he would never see the Devil again.
16.Why did Peter invite the man to come in and have a cup of tea?
A.They’d known each other for years.
B.He did that just out of a strange desire.
