When Branwell was fourteen or fifteen, he did a lot of oil（油） paintings. He painted people in the village, and it was easy to recognize（认识） the faces in the pictures. Later, he did a fine painting of his（他的） three sisters. I was very proud（骄傲的） of him. We all decided he would become a famous artist. Charlotte went to school again when she was fifteen.

  It was a much better school, Miss Wooler's school at Roe（[动](=roe deer)狍(分布于欧亚两洲)） Head. I don't think Charlotte liked school but she wanted to be a teacher, a governess, so she worked hard. I taught Branwell at home, and Aunt Branwell taught Emily and Anne. The girls and Branwell were learning（学习） to play the piano and Branwell played the music in church（教堂）. Emily and Anne had dogs, and they used to take them for walks on the moors（沼地）. Anne's dog was called Flossy, and Emily had a big strong one called Keeper（看护人）.

  Keeper went everywhere（到处） with her. I think Emily loved that dog more than any person. Emily was sometimes a difficult child. She was very shy（羞怯的） and did not often speak to anyone outside（在外面(的)） the family. When she was older, I sent her to school with Charlotte, but she hated it, so I brought her home and sent Anne instead（代替）.
