Dear Miss Li,
I'd like to thank you for giving money to "Animal Helpers", I'm sure you know that this group was set up to help people like me. You helped to make it possible for me to have Lucky. Lucky makes a big difference to my life. Let me tell you my story.
What would it be like to be blind or deaf? Or imagine you can't walk or use your hands easily. Most people would never think about this, but many people have these difficulties, I can't use my arms or legs well, so normal things like answering the telephone, opening and closing doors or carrying things are difficult for me. Then one day last year, a friend of mine helped me out. She talked to Animal Helpers about getting me a special trained dog. She also thought a dog might cheer me up. I love animals and I was excited about the idea of having a dog.
After six months of training with a dog at Animal Helpers, I was able to bring him home. My dog's name is Lucky—a good name for him because I feel very lucky to have him. You see, I'm only able to have a "dog-helper" because of your kindness! Lucky is very clever and understands many English words. He can understand me when I give him orders. For example, I say, "Lucky! get my book," and he does it at once.
Lucky is a fantastic dog. I'll send you a photo of him if you like, and I could show you how he helps me. Thank you again for changing my life. Best wishes, Ben Smith
Hi, Sam! I'm happy to hear that you are taking a trip to Beijing again. We can have fun together soon. In your email, you say you want to take a trip around Beijing. Well, Beijing is the capital of China. So it is a very beautiful city. It has a long history. There are many great places to visit. Do you like the Great Wall? If you do, we can go to Huanghuacheng Great Wall. It's 70km from the city centre. Huanghuacheng is different from Badaling. It's a place with hills and lakes. You love water, right? Then we can visit Gubei Watertown. It's in the north of Beijing. We can climb the green hills and row(划)a boat on the river. Oh, you must like the lantern shops there. You can buy one and light it in the evening. It's beautiful. Baiyangdian Lake is a great place, too. It's not in Beijing, but we can take a bus there. It takes only two hours. There, you can see beautiful lotus flowers(荷花)and birds. There are all kinds of delicious foods in Beijing. And Beijing roast duck is the most famous. We can try it. Are you interested in these places? I can't wait to meet you here in Beijing. Yours, Li Lei |
