Answer 1

Dear Jenny,

I’m glad to tell you something about the five mascots of the 16th Asian Games—A Xiang , A He, A Ru, A Yi and Le Yang yang. These five lovely goats have been decided as the mascots of Guangzhou Asian Games. The mascots are based on a fairy tale about five immortals, each taking a goat to Guangzhou, for which Guangzhou is called “Five Goats City”. The five mascots well represent the theme of the Asian Games — Thrilling games, Harmonious Asia. They look warm, energetic and passionate ,so it seems as if they are welcoming all the Asian people to Guangzhou. Besides, they carry the message of friendship, peace and the blessings from Guangzhou to people from all over Asia.

I am looking forward to the day you come to Guangzhou. See you then.

Yours truly,

                                                        Li Hua
