【正确答案】

【答案解析】May 5, 2004 Dear Liu Ying, I wish I could attend your 20th birthday party! But my grandma is hospitalized yesterday and I think it's my obligation to stay with her and take care of her. I believe you can understand me. This beautiful vase is the birthday gift for you. I happened to see it in a window display the other day. I hope you like it. Sorry that I can't come and happy birthday! Li Ming
