Sample writing
Dear Sir or Madam,
I don't really agree with what parents are saying about after-school classes because they only seem to think about getting their children into good schools or having successful children. Although some parents are right about the importance of learning from a young age, I think children should be allowed to be children and have a carefree (无忧无虑的) childhood.
In my opinion, it is important for parents not to push their children too hard. I believe it is better if parents try to really understand their children's interests and abilities first so that they will not make their children take classes that are not suitable for them. Perhaps parents could let their children decide for themselves if they want to have any after-school classes. If children are allowed to take the classes they choose for themselves, they will benefit more from these classes. They will grow up to be not only successful in their own way but happy too.
Yours truly,
Weisong

One possible version:
Dear Susan,
Exams often make students nervous. It's normal for people to feel worried in the face of something important. What counts is that we should find ways to solve the problem.
Firstly, prepare everything in advance. Why not make a study plan And don't wait until the night before the exams. When you get everything ready,
you'll feel less nervous.
Secondly, you'd better not put too much pressure on yourself. Try to relax. You can do whatever you like. For example, you can communicate with
others, play sports or just go for a walk.
Finally, get enough sleep, so that you can be clear in your mind what you should really do.
In a word, believe in yourself and you'll do a good job in the exams.
