Dear Merry,
These days, I have problems with my study. In school I can't listen to teachers carefully because I always feel tired and sleepy. I don't spend time with friends after class either, because I think it's a waste(浪费) of time. I even miss writing some answers in the test.
At home, I can't get my homework done every night. My parents don't let me stay up. So I have to get up early the next morning to finish it. Lately, I even get a bad headache.
How can I solve these problems
Yours,
Liu Ya
Dear Liu Ya,
When you have problems listening to teachers carefully in class, you can ask your teachers or deskmate to remind you often. Then spending time talking about many different things with friends can make you happy. It's not a waste of time.
As for homework, when it's hard to get it finished, one thing you can try is setting goals for yourself. Ask your parents to help you. You must take a break if you don't feel well. You might be surprised but a short rest can help you get more done! Lastly, if you don't worry and have enough sleep, your headache will leave you.
Yours,
Merry

In our daily life, there are many occasions on which we should not hesitate to refuse when we are asked for help. For one thing, when it is beyond our ability, we should give a direct reply “no”. For another, when the thing we are asked for is unreasonable or even illegal, we should say “no” without hesitation.
However, it is not the case in our real life. Many people prefer to say “yes” when they should say “no”. Some are afraid to lose their face, since they think refusal means their inability. Some people are afraid to offend their acquaintances(熟人), such as their friends, relatives and so on.
In fact, doing so is quite harmful. If you agree to do the things beyond your ability, the result will only be worse. The other might as well have asked another person who can help. And if you agree to do the unreasonable or even the illegal favors, such as cheating in the exam, you are in fact not helping the other but hurting him. You yourself will get into trouble, too.
