Jessica decided to arrange things so that she could go. Her husband finally agreed to take care of things while she was away. He agreed to do it because her mother had offered to come and stay for a while so Jessica could attend the reunion. Since he and her mother didn't get along, he decided to change his schedule and work from home for a few days. He really didn't want her mother to come, though he didn't say so.
杰西卡决定把事情安排妥当,这样她就能去了,她丈夫最终同意在她外出时照料家庭。他之所以同意是因为杰西卡母亲提出要来住一段时间,这样杰西卡就可以参加聚会了。由于他和杰西卡的母亲相处不好,于是他决定改变计划,在家工作几天。他真的不想让杰西卡母亲来,尽管他没有这么说。
Once she got to the reunion, she was shocked. Everyone had aged so much, and many were out of shape. Some who used to be good-looking had lost their looks completely and others looked much better than before. It was strange how time had changed people in such different ways. Anyway, she decided that since she was there, she would try to enjoy it.
一到聚会现场,她就惊呆了。每个人都老了很多,很多人身材走样。一些曾经样貌好看的人已经完全失去了他们的容貌,而另一些人看起来比以前好多了。这很奇怪,时间以各种不同的方式改变了大家。不管怎样,她既然决定参加聚会,她就会尽量享受它。
