PowerPoint problems, long words are broken up in text box

I am editing a MS PowerPoint emailed to me from a Chinese friend. When I type text in the text box it does not start a long word on new line and this causes problems. If I were to use a new PowerPoint (MS PowerPoint 2010, so not the one given to me by Chinese friend) for example if I write "My name is redlands and i live in England" with font size 36, "England" automatically goes on new line. Now when I edit the PowerPoint given to me by my Chinese friend with the same sentence it reads "My name is redlands and I live in En" and "gland" goes to a new line.
What could I do?
 
Right Click on the Text Box
Click on Format shape
Choose Text Box
Make sure that Wrap Text in shape checkbox is ticked
then Close
