Dear Auntie Em,

     Great news! Mrs Mumford just told me I had been chosen as one of the school {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (student) to visit the University of Cape Town in South Africa this summer! She said the program {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (design) for some of the brighter teenagers to experience a different culture. {#blank#}3{#/blank#} a good chance!

     The only problem is: mom and dad {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (simple) won't let me go. They said it was dangerous for me, a girl, {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (travel) alone. But my guess is that they think it too expensive. I {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (keep) telling them I had been on a plane on my own before. They needn't worry about {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (I) because this trio would be almost the same as that time when I had visited you in Texas. {#blank#}8{#/blank#}，they just won't listen!

     Will you help, Auntie Em? It will be {#blank#}9{#/blank#} very important experience to my personal growth.

Love, (and love you even {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (much) if you manage to make mom & dad agree with me.
