根据短文内容，判断下列句子正误。

    Jeff has an illness. He is recording his words so that his little son will be able to hear his voice in the future.

    Jeff caught the illness in 2011. The doctor told him that he might have only two to five years to live and the illness would make him lose his voice, so he decided to record his voice for his 13-month-old son, Bill.

    His wife Gina said, "Jeff used to play and sing in band, so his voice is important to him. I can't imagine not having his voice around. I would certainly like Bill to know his father's voice in this way.”

    Jeff and his wife hope that they can save his real voice for their little son. He now spends his weekend and evenings recording his voice. Their little son, Bill, will feel his parents' love when he grows up.

Subject: Can you help?            

From: Rose

Dear Knowledgeable,

    I have a good friend, Ann. She is very clever and can speak English really well. A very important English speech contest for our whole city will be held next month. Our classmates all think Ann is the best person to represent the class in the school contest and make sure she will win. But the problem is that she's very shy and that she's terrified of speaking in front of other people.

    She can't tell others about it, because she doesn't want to let her friends down. I can't think of any good advice to give her, but you always come up with good solutions to people's problems. Can you give us some good advice？Do you think we can tell the truth to the rest of the students?

Yours,

Rose
