（单词翻译）

Receiving Letters and Packages in the Mail 

Celeste: Did the mail come? 

Anwar: Yes, you got some letters and a package. 

Celeste: Oh, I hope that one of those envelopes has the photos Naomi promised us. Did you notice the postmark? 

Anwar: No, but they’re sitting in the hall. 

Celeste: Those photos are overdue¹ and should have been delivered days ago. Naomi thought she might not have put enough postage on the envelope, but I thought it must have been misdelivered. 

Anwar: You can look at it yourself. The package you received was sent using overnight delivery. 

Celeste: I wonder who sent it and why they sent it using expedited service. 

Anwar: I don’t know. Why don’t you go look? 

Celeste: I wonder if there’s anything perishable² in it or that’s time- sensitive in some way. 

Anwar: I have no idea. There’s also a letter that’s been forwarded from our old address that has delivery confirmation³. 

Celeste: Oh, I wonder what that could be. 

Anwar: You know what? 

Celeste: What? 

Anwar: All of those mysteries can be solved if you just go and open your mail. 

Celeste: I know, but isn’t it more fun to speculate?
