Dear Li Hua, You changed a lot when you had the phone two months ago. Now as soon as you come back home from school, the first thing you will do is to spend time on it. In the past, you would do your homework and then help me with chores. It’s also not a good idea to use your phone while you are doing homework although it helps you find the answers, because you seem to make more mistakes in exams. Finally, this month you will have geography and biology exams. It matters a lot. So I think you should give up your phone for the exams. Have a try! Love, Mom |
Dear mom, I know you mean to help me and worry about me. But with the phone, I know the latest news and I can share it with my friends. For example, I know there is a panda called Hua Hua at Chengdu Panda Research Base. She is very cute and now many people come to see her every day. I also know International Horticultural Exhibition 2024 Chengdu (2024成都世界园艺博览会) has been on since April 26th. Social media (媒体), games, apps might seem silly to you, but they help me to share the same topics with my friends. I promise to cut down the time I spend on my phone. To be honest, geography and biology exams are just a piece of cake for me. But giving it up is not good in the long term. Love, Li Hua |

Dear Li Hua, Thank you for your last letter. I’m sorry to hear that you had a toothache. Are you fine now? Yesterday, I went to the children’s hospital to cheer them up. I think it was great. Did you do any volunteer work? What do you think of it? Please tell me. Later, I am going to do some chores. Oh, I hate chores. Do you do chores at home? Do you think we should help our parents? Why or why not? Hope to hear from you soon! Yours, Sam | |
