Lesson 3 Please send me a card

请给我寄一张明信片

First listen and then answer the question.

听录音，然后回答以下问题。

How many cards did the writer send?

Postcards always spoil my holidays. Last summer, I went to Italy. I visited museums and sat in public

gardens. A friendly waiter taught me a few words of Italian. Then he lent me a book. I read a few lines, but I

did not understand a word. Everyday I thought about postcards. My holidays passed quickly, but I did not

send cards to my friends. On the last day I made a big decision. I got up early and bought thirty-seven cards.

I spent the whole day in my room, but I did not write a single card!
