[ti:] [ar:] [al:] [00:02.14]My dear Jack,I feel most embarrassed in referring to a rather difficult subject. [00:09.00]I wonder if it may have slipped your memory that nearly three months ago you asked me for a loan of RMB500. [00:18.11]You said you woud make repayment on the next pay day. [00:21.61]Perhaps you may make the repayment within 2 weeks. [00:24.97]I am sure you will agree and not be offended at my request. [00:29.59]Here is a good news for you. [00:32.40]The Russian National Ballet Troupe,which is now on a visit in Beijing [00:37.42]will give a performance in the National Grand Theater tomorrow evening. [00:41.35]I am sure you will be happy to watch it. [00:44.19]Here I leave you an admission card. [00:47.65]The performance will begin at seven o'clock sharp. [00:51.20]I will expect you at the theater entrance. [00:53.75]Please let me know if you are prevented from coming. [00:57.57]Yours sincerely, Li Ming.
