She said: “People are afraid to learn Putonghua. One of the main reasons is that they think it’s an 44 language to learn, but I have had fun 45 it .And I hope what I have done is easy and fun.”
Her 46 offers a series of lessons, which are videos of Daisy teaching a group of students on topics from greetings and numbers to Chinese culture.
Daisy’s website has 47 the support of several important persons —the teenager says she has received a letter praising(赞扬) her work from Gordon Brown, 48 is the British Prime Minister(首相).
She said: “I wrote to him and told him what I was doing and got a letter 49 . He said that what I was doing was a really good idea. I thought it was amazing. I was excited that 50 was supporting what we’re doing.”

Dear Laura,

I wanted to do something very ___ for my fifteen-year-old son, who has always been the perfect child. He ____ all summer to earn enough money to buy a used motorcycle. Then, he spent hours and hours on it ___ it looked almost new. I was so ____ of him that I bought him the shiniest helmet and a riding outfit.(一套服装)
I could ____ wait for him to open up his gift. In fact, I hardly slept the night before. Upon awakening, I went to the kitchen to start the coffee, tea, and morning food. In the living room was a beautiful keyboard with a __: “To my wonderful mother, all my love, your son.”
I was so __. It had been a long-standing (长期存在的) joke in our family that I wanted a piano so that I could ____ lessons. “Learn to play the piano, and I’ll get you one.” was my husband’s response.(反应)
I stood there shocked, crying a river, asking myself how my son could ____ this expensive gift.
Of course, the house awoke, and my son was excited with my reaction. Many kisses were ____, and I immediately wanted him to ___ my gift.
As he saw the helmet and outfit, the look on his face was not ____ what I was expecting. Then I ____ that he has sold the motorcycle to get me the keyboard.
Of course I was the proudest mother ever on that day, and my feet never hit the ground for a month.
So I wanted you to know, that kind of love still exists(存在) and lives even in the ever-changing world of me, me, me!
I thought you’d love to __ this story with me.
Yours,
Hilary
P.S. The next day, my husband and I bought him a new “used” already shiny motorcycle.
