参考范文

Dear Wang Fang,

I'm sorry to hear that you are in a bad mood these days. Here are my suggestions to deal with your problems.

First, you can play an active part in group activities and do sports with your friends in your spare time. You will have a great time together. And you can build your body up. Second, you should talk about your problems with your parents or teachers. Maybe they can give you some good advice and help you get out of the trouble. At last, I think you can smile more at others. Then people may think you’re friendly enough to get along with. In this way, they will make friends with you happily.

Anyway, I hope you can feel better soon.

Yours,

Susan
