to 不定詞

Jo, the second sister, was a tomboy and wanted to become a writer.

Beth, the third, was shy, gentle, and kind.

Amy, the youngest, was the prettiest of all   and could get away with almost anything.

Their neighbors called them the Little Women.

He wanted to take their father away to   the army to fight the Civil War.

I have your draft notice, sir.  Please get ready to leave.

Don’t cry girls, I will be back before you know it.

After their father went to war, hardship descended on the family.

Without Father, they couldn’t get enough money to buy food for all of them.

Their mother tried to work but she still   didn’t make enough to support the family.

They didn’t know how they would make it until their father’s return.

One day, a letter arrived from the battlefield.

It said that their father had been wounded in   battle and was now in the hospital.

I have to be there to take care of your father,

but where can we get money for the train ticket?

Mother was very upset, and as she spoke, tears welled up in her eyes.

It will be alright Mother. I will find the money.

Jo was the toughest of the sisters, and   she believed she would find a way.

When Jo finally returned home, everyone was shocked to   see that all her beautiful hair was gone.

With a big smile on her face, Jo took out   some money and handed it to her mother.

You see, I found some money, like I promised.

In front of her family, Jo pretended that everything was alright,

but that night when she went to bed, she couldn’t help crying.

I’m sorry, I should have sold my hair instead. I'm sorry.

No, that’s alright. It will grow back soon.

Their mother left and the sisters had to take care   of themselves and do chores around the house.

She had a high fever and was shaking all over.

How are you feeling, Beth? I’m, sorry I was mean before.

Despite her sisters’ love and care, Beth felt worse and worse.

Jo, we need a doctor, Jo. Will you be able to find his house?

That’s right. Please bring him as soon as possible!

A terrible snowstorm raged and howled outside,

but Jo knew she had to get the doctor no matter what.

He examined Beth closely and pronounced his diagnosis…

She has scarlet fever. Keep the fever down, and she will be better soon.

The sisters were relieved that Beth was going to   be alright, but they had another worry.

The doctor couldn’t understand why the still looked so concerned.

Don’t fret, girls. Beth will be okay as soon as the fever is gone.

We are very glad to hear that, but I’m afraid we   have no money to pay for your visit sir.

That’s not a problem. I will ask your   parents when they return. How about that?

After the doctor’s visit the sisters took even better care   of Beth, hoping to make her well soon.

Unfortunately, Beth was unhappy because she missed her mother.

Shh…don’t disturb yourself, Beth. She will be back soon

Please get better she will be coming soon. She will come back soon.

At that moment, their mother walked through the door.

The sisters were overjoyed and ran into her arms.

Yes, my daughters, young daughters, how are you?

Beth was also very happy  to have her mother back.

Oh, I feel better already just because you’re back!

Maybe Beth was just pretending to be sick   because she wanted you back so badly.

Everybody laughed, because they felt safe and happy.

Your father has hurt his leg, but he is already   getting better and missing you all very much!

I hope he will be with us soon. So don't worry Meg.

I know dear. You have been so brave, taking care of your sisters.

Christmas Eve came, and the sister hung their   stockings above the fireplace, waiting for presents.

Amy, why are you hanging out two stockings?

Do you hope to get more presents? Give me one!

Beth! Give Amy her stocking. She needs two because they’re smaller.

They were still very poor, but they were happy to be together.

The mother watched her daughters feeling worried and a little sad.

It was almost Christmas, but she knew they didn’t have   enough money for presents or a holiday feast.

This is going to be a sad and lonely Christmas.

That night, as the sisters lay down to sleep,   each dreamed of the present she wanted most.

Meg wanted to fall in love with a dashing young man,

and Amy imagined a delicious frosted cake.

and the sisters were disappointed to discover there were no presents under the tree.

They didn’t even have any food for breakfast.
