Dear Marjorie,

I’m having troubles at school. I find it difficult to get down to work in the evenings and I can’t concentrate(全神贯注) on anything at the moment. I spend most of my time listening to music or watching TV instead of doing my homework when I am at home. The other students in my class are much better than I am and I have problems with following the lessons as well. I can’t always take down the important things my teacher says because I write so slowly. She has told me that I’m falling behind with my studies. I’m not good at writing and I usually hand in my homework late because I put off doing it until the last minute. So I often have to invent different excuses to tell my teacher why I haven’t done the work. I’m sure I’ m not going to get through my final exams in July. I’m now so far behind that I don’t know how I’ m going to catch up with them. My teacher spent some time going through my homework with me but she found so many mistakes that I felt even more depressed(沮丧). What do you suggest I do?

Yours,

George
