I think you look good, but you will become healthier and feel better about yourself if you lose a little weight. If it is any comfort to you, I have also put on some weight recently, and so perhaps I can go on a diet along with you. Here’s a great idea– why don’t you play basketball with me next Saturday? It would help you get some exercise, and it would also be great fun! We can do this together. Analyze the problem; give advice and help;

Dear Hubo, I was so sad to learn that some people laughed at you just for being a little overweight. As a matter of fact, I face the same problem. Therefore, I fully understand your feeling. Looking attractive is what everyone wishes, but if we don’t make any changes, we would become too overweight, when it is too late to take actions ( 安慰与鼓励 ). I think the best way to lose weight is to eat properly and exercise regularly. Firstly, we should develop healthy eating habits. Going on a diet is useless in the long term, but surely we should give up fast food, which contain too much fat. Secondly, we could do some sports in the gyms where there are many pieces of equipment to help us get into shape. How about going there twice a week? I know you are good at badminton, maybe we can do this together. Please write back soon and tell me what you think about..

Dear Juliet, I have learned that you didn’t pass the GRE this year, which will prevent you from applying for the oversea study in the US. I am sorry to hear that. Find the problem; show sympathy

I think there are some reasons that result in this failure. First, you were sick on the day of exam, which must have distracted you from your exam. Second, being 15minutes late allowed you less time to finish all the paper. Being sick and late, you were in such a bad mood that you couldn’t be concentrative during your exam. Analyze the problem (objective)

To end in success, keeping a strong body is vital, only in which case, a satisfying result can be guaranteed. As we all know, you are so learned and skilled that you don’t have any difficulty in passing the exam. Don’t be too frustrated and cheer up. Never give up since it’s your dream to study in the US.
