1. Odd one out(局外者)
Dear Sue,
       I am 15 and have lots of friends, but I am still miserable(痛苦的. The problem is that they all look
great and get lots of attention, but I get none. No one takes any notice of me. My best friend, Gina, is
beautiful and always looks fantastic whatever(无论什么)she wears, and when I go out with her I feel
really ugly. I like all my friends, but what can l do to be more like them? Please give me some advice.    
                                                                                                                         Anxious(焦急的),

2. Homework misery(痛苦)
Dear Sue,
       My life is awful this year because of too much homework. I didn't get too much at the beginning of
the year, which was great because I had time to be with my friends, play football, listen to music and go
to different places. But things changed really quickly. These days I hardly have enough time in the evening
to finish all my work. At the end of the week I'm tired, depressed(沮丧的) and bored. What's the use
of homework anyway?   
                                                                             Overworked,                                                              
                                                                             Brighton

     There are only two reasons people cannot achieve their goals: The goals aren't important to them; or
people don't break them into small enough pieces. So all we need to do is to try our best...
     Have you ever watched a quitter in a boxing match-a man who just gives up and walks away? The
whole crowd boos. They throw drink bottles and bits of hot dog into the ring. They don't throw things
because he lost. They throw things because he quit. In our hearts we all believe that we should do our
best.
     Eric Moussambani swam for Equatorial Guinea (赤道几内亚) at the 2000 Olympics. This was the
first time Eric had swum a 100-metre race. He swam with his head out of the water and he barely kicked
his legs. In the first lap he was really struggling (挣扎). In the second he was nearly drowning (沉没).
But Eric was fighting with everything he had.
     At the turn, the large audience began to shout and with every stroke (划水) the noise got louder and
louder. Twenty meters from the finish, Eric was hardly moving but the crowd was crazy. When he finally
hit the wall, the cheering and stamping all but lifted the roof off the stadium. His time of 1 minute 52
seconds was about a minute slower than all the other competitors. Who cared? Eric Moussambani had
done his best.
     When you make an honest effort, people support you. You feel happier when you do your best. Think
about what it feels like walking to school on those days when you have done all of your homework and
done it as well as you can. Don't you feel just a bit more interested about school? Why? Because you are
always happier when you make a 100 percent effort, whether it's for an essay or a basketball game.
     Your teachers will tell you"Work hard!" and your parents will probably tell you "Work hard." But you
don't work hard to please your parents and teachers. The big reason you do it is for you. If you get good
marks, that's a prize. If other people notice, wonderful! But the main reason is how you feel about yourself.
     Even when you do your best, it is not certain that you will succeed. You may do your best, and still
be criticized. You may do your best, and still have people laugh at you. But when you do your best, the
reward is that feeling that says, "I did everything I could."

B. The audience was very angry when Eric lost the 100 meter race.
C. If you have done your school work, you will surely get high marks.
