2. Here is an e-mail message from Kate Anderson, an American friend of Miss Cheng Ming, How are you? I’m glad to tell you that I will spend three days in Hong Kong from 7 th April. After that, I will have a business meeting in China. Ming, I’d like you to do me a favour. Since I know almost nothing about Hong Kong, can you give me some suggestions about where to see and what to do in Hong Kong during my short stay? Is there any delicious food that I can try? And where can I stay? I hope that I haven’t given you too much trouble about my visit. Thank you for your help. Hope to hear from you soon. Kate
