Dear Li Hua,
It was such a delight to hear from you, but I’m sorry to learn you argued with your parents over choosing after-school classes. I understand both sides—your parents hope you take math tutoring家教,辅导 to lift提升 your grades, while you are eager to keep learning painting, your beloved热爱的 hobby. Neither of you is at fault错误.
For solutions, one practical step is to initiate启动,发起 a calm conversation instead of而不是 getting into a heated激烈的 quarrel. You may find it helpful to listen patiently to their concerns, for因为 their opposition对立 comes from deep love and care for your future rather than而不是 blame责备. Another effective approach is to share your thoughts clearly: let them know painting helps you relax and stay focused保持专注 on your studies, and it might be a good idea to make a specific promise to balance your hobby with schoolwork, like attending one painting class a week while keeping up with math practice. Sincere真诚的 communication is always the best way out.
I sincerely真诚地 hope you and your parents can get along soon. Looking forward to your good news! Yours sincerely,
Tom

2. I’m 17, and a member of our school basketball team. I’m crazy about basketball, and pretty good at it too, which is probably why I was so mad when we lost our last match. We played well, but I felt the team were let down by one member, our point guard. The point guard is a key player, but it was like he wasn’t even on the court!

Disappointed by his behaviour, I said all this to my best friend. I was just letting off steam really, because I was so angry, but then my friend went and told everyone else what I’d said.

3.This is so totally awkward. I’m really angry with my friend—what should I say to him? And should I say anything at all to my teammate?
4.Embarrassed and ashamed, I can’t concentrate on anything. Please help!

Dear Ben,
1.There is an old American saying, “Loose lips sink ships.” This means that if you speak too much about something, especially to people who you don’t know so well, it’ll cause all kinds of trouble.
谚语,俗语
祸从口出
特别,尤其
引起,造成;原因
各种各样的
麻烦,困难
23
2.The situation here is so much worse because the “loose lips” were your best friend’s. Treated this way, you’re sure to feel hurt—we should always be able to trust those closest to us, and it hurts even more when we find we can’t.

3.But I have to say that it’s partly your fault, isn’t it? You admit that you were “letting off steam”. It is understandable in that situation, but we should always think before we speak.

4.Here’s what you need to do. First, apologise to your teammate. If you ever want to win any more basketball games (and I’m sure you do!), you need to work together, and that means communicating with each other clearly and resolving conflicts. So have a chat with your teammate. Tell him directly and honestly that you were talking without thinking.

5.Then, talk to your friend. Friendship should be one of the greatest things in the world, but sometimes it can be difficult. Again, your strategy is clear communication. Tell your friend you’re angry with him for repeating what you said and making the situation worse, but that you want to move on. Approached in this way, your friendship will soon be repaired.

6.Thirdly, and perhaps most importantly, think about your own behaviour. Don’t say too much when you’re angry! Filled with anger, you tend to say whatever comes to your mind. This gives people the wrong signal. Take a deep breath, calm down, and always remember: think first, speak later. If you feel one of your teammates isn’t pulling their weight, then raise your concerns in a professional way with your team coach.

Good luck!
