Dear Jack,

I am sorry to hear about the trouble you are having. As you know, high school life is full of challenges and everyone feels he is under great pressure at times. With endless homework and fierce competition, it is easy to become discouraged. You should draw up a scientific plan, and turn to your teachers for help if necessary. Second, if you are finding it hard to live away from your family, it is time for you to live independently and think practically. Last, if you are having difficulty getting along with your classmates, keep in mind that everyone likes a person who is helpful and kind.

Best wishes to you.

Yours sincerely,

Li Hua

B) One possible version

Mobile phones are no longer luxury items and they clearly have many advatages for those who use them, even though there are several drawbacks.

One advatages is taht they enable us to communicate with other people wherever they may be and at any time of the day. Teenagers who need help can contact their parents immediately and emergency services can be called to the scene of an accident without delay. Another advantage is that many models now have more than one function and can be used as cameras or MP3 players.

However, everything has two sides. The mobile phone is also thought to be a serious threat to health. Moreover, drivers who use one while driving might cause accidents.

In a word, if we are careful about when and where we use mobile phones, they will certainly improve our lives.
