Dear Wendy，

We're so happy to know your 18th birthday is approaching.Considering you're alone here in China, we're going to hold a party for you to celebrate it.

The party will be held in the restaurant just next to our school at 6：00 this Saturday afternoon.  Twenty of our classmates, together with five teachers, will join. At the party, there'll be a special ceremony, followed by dinner, drinking, singing, dancing and so on. We've ordered delicious food and a birthday cake and prepared gifts for you.

Is there any special activity you'd like to have at the party? If any idea strikes you, please let us know. We sincerely hope you'll turn up and have a nice birthday.

Looking forward to your early reply.
