（单词翻译）

 　　She got a computer magazine in the mail. She hadn't ordered it. In fact, she'd never even heard of it. The expiration1 date was on the address label2. It was 12 months away. She read the whole magazine within the next few days. A while later, her uncle called. He asked, "Did you get the magazine?" She said, "Yes, I did. So you're the person who ordered it. I really like it. Thank you." He said, "You're welcome. I know you're taking computer courses in college. So I thought this might interest you. It's the least I could do for my favorite niece." She thanked him again. The year went by. Her subscription3 ended. She waited for another month, just in case her uncle was going to renew4 her subscription. He didn't. She renewed5 it herself. It was only $12 a year. Twelve dollars, she thought, for his "favorite" niece.
