她自己的房子高考英語(yǔ)作文

　　it wasn’t a tarpaper shack to emily, it was home. as far as she was concerned, it was heaven. with her feet up on the front porch railing, relaxing at the close of a long day, she could still smell the tar. she’d insisted on a front porch, no matter how small the house. it didn’t matter; the smell would go, but her new home would stay.

　　emily married north west mounted police constable earnest harding almost a year ago, and spent the first six months of the union nagging her new husband to build her a house of her own.he always said they couldn’t afford to buy their own property until he was older and been promoted. she always said she was a farm girl, he knew that very well when he married her. she needed her own house to grow her own plants inside during the long winters, and her own dirt to plant outside flowers in the spring.
