Passage
Professor Waters Introduces Herself
Professor Waters begins her first class. She introduces herself to her students.
Good morning, everyone! This is our first lesson and I'd like to introduce myself to you. You know, I'm from the United States. Actually I was born in England and then my family moved to the States when I was a little girl. You can see that I have brown curly3 hair and blue eyes. I'm 170 cm tall and perhaps a little bit overweight. I like Chinese culture so much that my hobbies are Chinese painting and Beijing Opera. I enjoy Chinese food and I'm also quite skilled in using chopsticks. I would like to be your friend not only in class, but also after class. Oh, my name is Helen Waters. Please call me Helen. Now, do you have any more questions about me?
