【答案】
Dear Dr. Helper,
I am a Senior 3 student. I am now in great need of your help because I can hardly stand the great pressure. Every day I have to stay at school for 9 hours to have lessons and spend at least 3 to 4 hours doing my homework. We teenagers are eager to play and enjoy ourselves, but we hardly have any time to do what we want. Besides, we even don’t have enough sleep.
There seem to be 3 causes about the overload: the pressure of examinations; too much homework and the high expectations from the parents. We are often warned that if we don’t do our best, we won’t have the chance to go to university.
I write this letter only to wish that I could have someone to talk to. I am looking forward to your advice.
Your sincerely
Wang Yong
