Hey, Mike! Your sister Jane is really
something. She is so talented in the high jump. How
did she become interested in that sport? |
Mike: |
Are you writing a news article about the sports
meet? |
Lili: |
Yes, I am, and I would like to feature Jane in the
article. Do you have time to answer some questions? |
Mike: |
Sure. I can tell you that Jane and I would have
jumping contests together when we were kids. It wasn't
really a sport to her then; it was just something
we did together for fun. |
Lili: |
Was she competitive then? |
Mike: |
No, not really. In fact, I think it was an accident
that she became interested in the high jump. Part
of being on the track and field team includes the
high jump and everyone must participate in it at first. |
Lili: |
I guess the coach could see something special in
Jane's ability. |
Mike: |
I think so,too.She has a natural ability in the
high jump.Practice has certainly increased her talent. |
Lili: |
Was she surprised that she won the media? |
Mike: |
Yes,she was very surprised and excited. |
Lili: |
Thank you for talking to me,Mike. |
Mike: |
My pleasure.Thank you for writing about my sister. |
