A New Student Card

Today is Lina's first day in an English class. She sits next to Mateo and opens her student card. The card has her name, age, email, and phone number. Lina is twenty years old. Her email is simple, but Mateo asks her to spell it slowly. The teacher says, "Please write your last name and your favorite color." Lina writes "Garcia" and "blue." She feels nervous at first, but the class is friendly. At the end of class, Mateo says, "Nice to meet you." Lina smiles and says, "Nice to meet you too. See you on Monday."
