2) explain why.
You should write about 100 words.

【正确答案】 Dear Laura,
I have to recall my invitation for the birthday tea party on Saturday afternoon.
I just heard that my grandmother is seriously ill. I must go to see her and I am leaving early tomorrow morning.
I am really sorry about that. I have been longing for holding such a party, and I know that you have been prepared to come and meet my family. So I will plan on a later date for the party. Sorry for this last minute change and I am sure you will understand my anxiety.
Truly yours, Li Ming
