九、书面表达(10分)
Dear Zhao Bin,
I'm sorry to hear that you are having trouble getting used to life in middle school. In your letter you said that you felt lonely because you had few friends. To solve this problem, I advise you to join school clubs to make more friends. What's more, you can join some study groups where you can not only learn knowledge, but also make more friends.
You also said that you had difficulty in remembering English words. I think it is a good way to learn words by reading more English stories and news. In addition, you should try your best to speak English in daily life. Day by day, you will remember a lot of words and make some progress.
Good luck with everything!
