      I’m fourteen and I’m much shorter for my age. What’s worse, I’m very fat. I want to lose weight to be 55 kg and to be taller and then I can go to the school basketball team and enjoy myself. Can you help me?

Bob

 Dear Bob,

Don’t warry if you’re shorter than your friends. Teenagers(青少年)grow at different times.

 It doesn’t matter how heavy you are. You are still the same person. Plan your meals with your mum, and she can help you lose weight. Also, try to take more exercise.

 George

 Dear George,

I’m learning French but I don’t get good marks. I don’t know why. Sometimes I want to give up. But I know I shouldn’t because languages are going to be very important. What should I do?

 Alice

You are right. You shold never give up, and I’m sure that you’ve mde more progress than you think. You can talkto your teacher and ask her what you should do to get a better grade. Talk to your friends who are good at French. Find something that helps you.

Every year thousands of young people in England finish school and then take a year off before they start work or go to university. Some young people go to other countries and work as volunteers (志愿者). Volunteers give their time to help people. For example, they work in schools or hospitals, or they do something helpful for the environment.

Pauline Jones, 18, lives in Cardiff, Wales. Next year she is going to university to study Chinese, but now she’s living in Belize. Pauline says, “I’m working with other people here to save the coral reefs (珊瑚礁) in the sea near Belize. The reefs here are beautiful, but if the sea water is very polluted, the coral will die. I’m helping to do research on the coral and the fish that live around the reefs. All over the world, coral reefs are dying. We need to do something about the problem before it’s too late.”

“I’m staying with a family here and I help do some housework. I don’t get any money, but that’s OK. I love my work here, and I’m learning a lot about the people of Belize—and myself! After I finish my work, I want to stay here for another three months. I want to travel around Belize and Central America.”
