Dear editor, My English teacher is very strict (严厉)with us. Several days ago, when we were having class, Tom asked me a question. But she thought we were speaking in class. She asked us to stand at the back of the classroom for a few minutes. This made me uncomfortable. After that, I feel nervous in her class, so I don’t like her class. However, I really want to learn English well. What should I do? Yours, Mike

 

Dear Mike, I am sorry you are having difficulty with your English class. Every teacher wants his or her students to study hard especially in class. So I think you should have a talk with your English teacher and tell her what you were doing with Tom that day. If she knows your worries, maybe she will help you with your English. And she will be pleased to hear you want to learn English well. I believe when students are not trying as hard as they can, a teacher is forced（被迫）to take actions. Yours, Editor
