Dear Mr. Lin,
Thank you for helping my mother last Saturday. She could not carry the heavy boxes to the sixth floor. You came at once, and you did not take any money.
My mother wants to say sorry, too. Our dog barked all night and woke you up. She will keep him inside after ten.
We will have a small party next Sunday. You are very welcome to come.
Yours,
Amy Chen
親愛的林先生：
謝謝您上星期六幫我媽媽。她沒辦法把那些重箱子搬到六樓。您馬上就來幫忙，而且不收任何錢。
我媽媽也想跟您說抱歉。我們家的狗整晚叫，把您吵醒了。她以後十點過後會把狗關在屋裡。
下星期天我們要辦一個小型聚會，非常歡迎您來參加。
敬上
陳艾咪
Taichung is one of the biggest cities in Taiwan. Its population is now more than two million. Fifty years ago, most people there were farmers. Today many of them work in factories, shops and offices.
A big city gives people more jobs, but life there is not always easy. Houses are expensive, and the roads are busy. Some poor families live in very small rooms. For them, city life is not as easy as it looks. Social workers say the city must help them more.
台中是台灣最大的城市之一，現在人口超過兩百萬。五十年前，那裡大部分的人都是農夫。今天他們許多人在工廠、商店和辦公室工作。
大城市給人更多工作機會，但那裡的生活並不總是輕鬆。房子很貴，馬路也很擁擠。有些貧窮的家庭住在很小的房間裡。對他們來說，城市生活並不像看起來那麼容易。社工說，這個城市必須多幫助他們。
