当罗斯福还是个小男孩时，饱受气喘所苦。为了能够康复，他花了很多时间从事户外活动来增进他的体力并学习有关动物的一切信息。因为他热爱动物，所以他的六个小孩也喜欢动物。当罗斯福一家住在白宫时，孩子们收养了许多宠物，包括獾、 熊、浣熊、猫、狗、鼠、天竺鼠、蛇及一只名为阿尔冈京 (Algonquin) 斑点花色的小马。 夏季时，罗斯福的妻子及孩子们常常留在他们位于纽约长岛家中。当罗斯福跟他的家人分隔两地时，他时常写信回家。图中的信即是罗斯福写给他那还不会阅读的儿子西欧多尔二世的信；您猜猜看信的内容是什么？


When Roosevelt was a young boy he had been sick with asthma. In order to get well he spent a lot of time outdoors building up his strength and learning about animals. Since he loved animals, it was no surprise that his six children loved them too. While the Roosevelt family lived in the White House, the children collected many pets, including a badger, a bear, a raccoon, cats, dogs, rats, guinea pigs, snakes, and a calico pony named Algonquin. During the summers, the children and Mrs. Roosevelt often stayed at their home in Long Island, New York. While they were away from their father, he often sent them letters. Roosevelt wrote one you see here to his son Theodore Jr. who had not yet learned to read. What do you think this letter was about?
