Dear Marisol,

Thanks for your voice mail. I’m your now key-pal. My name is Cho Sun Ah. I live in Pusan, Korea. I’m a student at Pusan National University.

In my country, we speak Korean. I study English at the university. I can speak a little French, but I can’t speak Spanish. I love music too! I can’t play any instruments, but I can sing. I have lots of CDs. Who is your favorite singer?

I can ski a little, but I can’t play soccer or tennis. My favorite sport is baseball. I always watch it on TV. Do you like baseball?

What do you think of my English? I’d like to further improve my English listening ability so I’m looking forward to your voice reply.

Your friend,

Sun-Ah
