Dear Mandy，
Pm not doing well in my lessons at school，especial in maths. My dad says I must try hard because he wants me go to university. He thinks I'm lazy，but it's not true. I work really hard， often study late into the night！I've tried to talk to my mother，but she always said I have to work as hard like my brother does. My brother doesn't study very hard，and he always gets excellent

Thanks a lot！
Yours sincerely，
Lisa

They want to please a man，to he loved or they want to please society，to succeed."
