What is the purpose of an advice letter?
What kind of aspects should be included in such kind of letter
Susan Luo, an adviser for teenagers, has received a letter asking for some advice. Read her reply and answer the following questions:
Task 1
1. What is Worried Friend’s problem?
2. Do you think Ms. Luo’s advice is useful? Why or why not?
3. What other kinds of advice would you give?
The problem is his/her friend Chen Lei plays computer games too often and spends too much time online.
I think Ms. Luo’s advice is useful because it’s always good to talk to a friend about his or her problems and offer advice. Also, to try a new hobby may help his/her friend to spend less time online.
I think he can spend some time playing sports outdoors with friends. He can also learn something about programming instead of just playing games. Or I will encourage him to try new hobbies.
A. I know what the problem is.
B. I understand how you feel.
C. This is my advice and reason(s).
D. I think my advice will help.
You wrote that you are very woried about your fiend, Chen Lei. I understand quite well that you are anxious and feel terrild.
You think that you friend plays computer games too often and spends too much time online.
I recommend that you talk to you friend about his behaviour. It is not unusual for teenagers of your generation to be attracted to computer games and the online world. But spending too much time online is unhealthy and makes it very difficult to focus on other tings in life. Some students even become addicted to the Internet and cannot concentrate on school and family life. I think you should encourage you fiend to ty new hobies. Why not discuss the problem together?
I am sure he will listen to you, since you are his good friend.
