headed home quickly. mom and dad lived on a small farm that they had owned since i was seven. i hated going there every weekend. there was nothing for a young girl to do but watch the one station on the old tv set, if the weather allowed reception. my mom, on the other hand, loved the peace and quiet of the land and loved to work in the garden among her flowers and vegetables. the place was rustic（乡下的）, with no indoor heat. we had a big wood stove in the kitchen that did its best to heat the little farmhouse, but it always seemed cold and too quiet to me. in the evenings, my mom and i would sit for hours singing in the little kitchen. i sang the melody and mom larmonized. her favorite song was “moon river” and we sang it over and over. mom told me stories about how when i was a little girl, i could sing before i could talk. she loved to tell how my playpen（婴儿圈栏）sat in the kitchen next to the radio and there was one song i particularly loved called “ivory tower”. as time passed, i had my own children and went to visit them every week or two. the kids loved the farm and the tractor rides with my dad. but i still hated the silence of the farm. while my mom loved to sit at her kitchen table and look out at her garden and flowers and retell all the old stories, i missed the hustle and bustle（喧闹）of my life at home. but i sat there listening quietly as she reminisced. now, i sat back in the silence and the silence was deafening so i finally leaned over to turn on an old radio. music always comforted me,my heart skipped a beat. “moon river” was playing on the radio. i sat there, with a tear running down my cheek, as i listened to every familiar note. then the radio announcer of this old station came on. “ heres one we havent heard in a while,” and an unfamiliar song began. i began to cry harder as i heard the words sung over the airwaves. “come down; come down from your ivory tower.”41. the writer didnt like staying in the farm for the following reasons
