Jane Scott is fourteen and the year before last she began to study in a middle school. She likes dancing and singing and spends a lot of time on them. But she hates math and does not work hard at it. She thinks it difficult to learn. She falls behind her classmates and once failed the math exam. She decides to drop it. Her father is angry with her when he knows about it.
It was Sunday. Mr Scott gave a call to his sister, who teaches math in another school. He hoped she would come and tell his daughter how to learn math. The woman came quickly and said. “You’re a clever girl, Jane. I’m sure you’ll soon do well in math if you work hard at it.”
“I’m afraid I can’t, Aunt,” said Jane, “Girls can’t be good at math.”
“I don’t think so,” said the woman. “I was good at it when was a girl. You must do more exercises and practice a math problem again and again until you master it. Remember: Practice makes perfect. Well, it’s a math problem. Think about it and practice it again, and you’ll work it out.”
“OK,” said the girl, “Let me try.”
About an hour later, Jane took the exercise book to her aunt and said, “I’ve done the problem ten times.”
“Well done!” her aunt said happily, “What result did you get?”
“Ten answers.”

How are you? Thanks very much for your last letter.
I've finished all my exams. The last one was yesterday. It was history. I think this subject is really difficult because
there're lots of facts and dates to remember. I've got a poor memory and I hate to remember things. I'm afraid I can't pass
the history examination.
This term, I learnt eight subjects. The worst were history and French; I found them very boring and difficult to learn.
I think I need to study hard next year. I like geography best, but we only had it twice a week. Our geography teacher,
Mr.King, is great. He taught the subject well. He didn't like to spoon-feed students with lots of facts. He hoped us to
learn freely. He didn't give us any homework the whole year. Perhaps he hated doing homework when he was a student.
We did a project with Mr. King about a few countries in Europe and Asia. Some of my friends went to the library for
photos and I used the Interact to search for information. Mr. King gave us a lot of helpful advice. At the end of this
term, we gave an oral presentation (口头报告) in front of the class. I'd like to be a pilot, and then I could travel and see
all those places.
Please write and tell me about your school. What was it like? Were your exams easy?
Best wishes.
Yours,
Nick
