They worked out which trains to catch, where to eat and where they wanted to go shopping. . A friend of Jane’s was working with the sound equipment backstage(后台). He said he could get them special passes so they could go backstage. He promised to ask the group if the girls could come to say “Hello”. He said that he was sure he could get them the group’s autographs(签名).
Then two days before the concert, Anna got a cold., even though she stayed in bed and took medicine. On the evening before the concert, she had a fever and was very sick indeed.
Anna’s mother rang Jane. “Anna is too sick to go to the concert,” she said. “You had better find someone else to go with.”
