Dear Kitty,

I am sorry that I did not write to you earlier because I was very busy. I was helping with a charity show to raise(筹集)money for Project Green Hope.(绿色希望工程)A lot of work needed to be finished, so I did not have much free time.

I felt very happy when I was chosen to(被选为)be the host. It was exciting,but I was also very nervous. I know that lots of people would come to the show and many pop stars would come, too. My job was to introduce each star and I also had many other duties.

We practiced a lot before the show. I had to remember to look at the right camera at the right time. At first, I thought I would never be able to remember all the words.

Slowly,everything became easier.

The big day came very quickly, and I was so excited. Twenty minutes before the big event, we opened the doors and many people came into the theatre to watch the show. The fans of the pop stars were making a lot of noise, so I had to speak loudly.

30,000 dollars has been given to Project Green Hope. I hope more events like this will be organized to raise money for charities and I think more people should be invited to take part in them.

See you soon.

Best wishes!

Ricky
