News from Evangeline

Readers will remember Evangeline from from the entry ”12 girls band “. She’s finally gotten through exams and a broken computer to respond to my request to publish her note. So here’s her first email, dated by the world cup match she was looking forward to at the time:

Mr Downs:

How are you?It's honor for me to chat with you that afternoon.Rosie and I really had a good time talking with you.However,since my spoken English is poor, sometimes I couldn't express myself well.

well,how long will you stay in China?And will you come to our school again?If you will,please tell me.Then I can give you a CD from "12 girls band". for there's maybe a little bit difficulty finding this album.So please let me know if you'll come to our school.

Do you like the World Cup?And which team do you like best?My favourate is Argentina.And the match between Holland and Argentina will start at 3:00am tonight according to Beijing time.I'm thrill when I'm waiting for it.And I'm anxious to see them get the Cup...You know,the Chinese team is a little disappointing,so most of the Chinese turn to foreign teams to enjoy the fun of football.

I hope you'll enjoy your trip!

yours sincerely Evangeline
