Dear Danny,
亲爱的丹尼，
This week in class, we talked about success.
这一周课上，我们谈论成功的话题。
We studied famous people and talked about our heroes.
我们学习伟人，谈论我们（心目中的）的英雄。
On Monday, Ms. Liu asked us to make crossword puzzles based on facts about our heroes.
星期一，刘老师要求我们根据自己心目中的英雄（的实际情况），来设计一个纵横字谜游戏。
I thought it would be fun because I did a lot of crossword puzzles when I was in Canada.
我想那一定很有趣，因为我在加拿大的时候，做了很多的字谜游戏。
But whom should my puzzle be about? I thought about it as I walked to and from school.
可是我的字谜该写谁呢？我上学来回的路上一直在想。
Then I had a great idea. My hero wouldn't be anybody famous.
后来，我有了个好主意。我（心目中的）英雄可能不是什么名人。
It would be somebody who I like very much.
可能是我喜欢的某个人。
I'm sending you the puzzle so you can try to guess who it is.
我现在把这个字谜发给你，这样你能试着猜猜他是谁？
