Dear Aunt Tia Aunty, I have some good news for you. Last month I passed my final examination. A week ago I succeeded to join in a senior high school English competition. Last night my parents promised to send me to a famous English course in my town. They also promised me if my scores in English are good, they will send me to a foreign university. Great, isn't it? I'll work hard. I want to be a great pediatrician like you, Aunty. Well, that's all for now. I am looking forward to having your news. Love Debby What does the first paragraph talk about?
