暗示，迹象
1. Can you find any hints in the story that suggest Grandma was in poor health condition Did the writer notice it at that time How did she feel after Grandma passed away
Granny spent most of her time on the sofa by the fire, her hand was slightly shaky and she stayed in by the fire and didn’t go outside. The writer didn’t notice it at that time. The writer thinks of her often and misses her very much.
2. Why does the writer think of her grandma every Christmas Why does the writer always make a sugar biscuit in a G-shape every year Does “G” have other meanings？
