Dear editor,

I am a high school student. A few days before, one of my very good friends told me that he was going to stop the school. He said that he want to start his own business. I tried my best to get him change his mind, but failed. I know it is difficult of him to change his mind. He is not doing so good in his studies, yet I want to insist that I give it a try. The process is more important than the results. Now there are only 90 days leaving before the test. I am not sure that his decision is right or wrong. I needed your advice.

Mrs Bennet, Pride and Prejudice

Jane Austen described Mrs Bennet as “a woman of mean understanding, little information, and uncertain temper（脾气）”: she topped your list of the least favorite female family heads. With her single-minded devotion to marrying off her daughters, she is one of literature’s parents involving themselves in their sons’ or daughters’ private lives. And at least she pays attention to her daughters. Whatever one might lay at her daughters’ door, she defends them.

Helen Graham, The Tenant of Wildfell Hall

The second and final novel by Anne Bront was so shocking that after Anne’s death, her sister Charlotte prevented its re-publication. Published for the first time in 1848, it told the story of a woman who escapes her alcoholic husband to protect her young son. In fleeing her husband, Helen was not just challenging social structures, she was breaking the law: at the time, a married woman had no independent legal existence, and by taking her child with her she was likely to be punished for kidnapping(诱拐). Helen’s actions didn’t just establish her as a good mother; they helped to cause a movement.

Marilla Cuthbert, Anne of Green Gables

The adoptive mother of orphan Anne makes herself known as a softy through the course of the 1908 novel: so much so that Margaret Attwood has claimed that Marilla is the true central character: “Her growing love for Anne, and her growing ability to express that love – not Anne’s duckling-to-swan act – is the real magic transformation. Anne is the catalyst(催化剂) who allows the strict Marilla to finally express her long-buried softer human emotions.”

Mrs Waterbury, The Railway Children

The Railway Children’s female family head is “a very real mother, strong but also easily hurt.” Presenting an idealized(理想化) vision of childhood, yet the novel contains a tension between appearance and reality – which some have said reflects its author E Nesbit’s personal life. Her husband had an ongoing affair with her best friend, who bore him two children that Nesbit raised as her own. Jenny Agutter has said: “Nesbit’s life was always unstable. What saved her was her belief that things would work out in the end … Against the background of her own tense and complex family life, she wrote stories about families that were joined perfectly together.”

Dear Hou Ting,

I am sorry that maths disappoint you, but you can’t give it up.

As you say, it is one of the most important subject and there

is a reason for this. We have to use maths from all the time.

Wherever your career takes you, maths will have to be using.

In fact , most employers and universities will accept people

who have failed or given up maths. All you can do is try your

best in maths and make the most use of time you had. If you

have trouble understand anything, the first person you should

tell is your teacher. That is often surprising how simple things

seem when you are explained properly — even maths problems!

Dear Ms. Wang,

I am writing to inform you of some arrangements about my composition course and Latin course next year.

I’ve decided to re-establish the 5-paragraph essay as the goal for the composition course. I interviewed some of my former students and they all agreed that being able to write critically and continuouslywas important to them.

So next academic year, Term 1 will be like always: sentences to paragraphing. And Term 2 will work toward the 5-paragraph essay. The final 3 weeks of Term 2 will be reserved tointroduce writing for TOEFL and CEE. By that time, if the students have done their job correctly, then they should be able to write quite well.

As for the Latin course, I will post notices around campus next week so that the students will understand what’s on offer before I actually introduce the course. A number of students already emailed me about the course.

I am sure you don’t understand what a big deal our opening this program at our school is. People around the world are interested in what we plan to do. There are many rewards available to the students who succeed in the course. Please share what I have said with the administration. I want them to understand the importance of this course. The reason I have contacted these colleagues (actually Oxford contacted me) isthatI have confidence in our students and in myself. I know that when those professors meet our students and hear them speaking and reading Latin, they are going to be amazed. It will open all sorts of doors for students that they never even thought of knocking on.

Well, that’s it for now. I’ll see you soon.

Yours,

Edward Johnson
