Dear Raymond
Thank you very much for telling me about your problems.
You are unhappy with your weight, but you do not know how to change it. Many students of our age have this problem. (1)______________________

You also worry about exams. Your parents care too much about your marks after each exam, so you always feel stressed. (2)____________________

Dear John,
I’m worried these days. I often get low marks in English exams. I am interested in playing computer games, and I play computer games for one or two hours every day. I don’t have enough time for my homework then. I feel stressed from time to time.
I feel lonely sometimes because I have few friends. I don’t know how to get on well with(友好相处) other students.
Can you offer me some suggestions
Yours,
Lily

Let’s enjoy good compositions and beautiful sentences together!
Sample writing
Dear Lily,
Thank you very much for telling me about your problem.
You are worried about your low marks in English exams. I think you need to read English more and listen carefully in class. As a Grade 9 student, you mustn’t play computer games for too long every day. You should learn to plan your time as well.
You feel lonely sometimes. Why not take part in more school activities You can make more friends if you can help others more, I think.
I hope you think my advice is worth taking.
Best wishes,
John
Just as the saying (格言) goes: If you wish, a bud
(花蕾) will surely come out. Wish you a happier and less stressed life.
If you want to be successful in Grade 9 and make good progress in your study every day, please work hard and get on well(相处好)with your parents,teachers and your friends.
