二、示例:
Dear Eric,
Having received your last letter inquiring me about how to make yourself heard by parents, I’m writing with sincerity to offer some tentative suggestions, which I hope may help.
Personally, I tend to believe that the issue is caused by lack of communication skills instead of deliberate ignorance. Therefore, it would be better if you could work on raising your parents’ awareness of the importance of being concentrated and giving feedbacks when talking. You can do this by face-to-face communication or by writing a letter. However, if this method does not work well, another approach of great benefit is to involve a trusted adult to help mediate the conversations.
If you find the above suggestions constructive to you, I would be more than delighted. Please don’t hesitate to contact me in case there are further questions.
Best wishes,
Tara
