Passage 1(2018成都)
Dear Merry,
Recently, I have trouble with my study。
In school I can't listen to teachers carefully because I always feel tired and sleepy。 I don't spend time with friends after class either because I think it's a waste of time。 I even miss writing some answers in the test。
At home, I can't get my homework done every night。 My parents don't let me stay up。 So I have to get up early the next morning to finish it。 Lately, I even get a bad headache。
How can I solve these problems? Yours,
Liu YaDear Liu Ya,
When you have trouble listening to teachers carefully in class, you_can_ask_your_teachers_or_deskmate_to_remind_you_often。 Then spending time talking about many different things with friends can make you happy。 It's not a waste of time。 As for homework, when it's hard to get finished, one thing you can try is setting goals for yourself。 Ask your parents to help you。 You must take a break, especially if you don't feel well。 You might be surprised but a short break can help you get more done! Lastly, if you don't worry and have enough sleep, your headache will leave you。
Yours, Merry

Passage 3(2018苏州)
During my first two weeks at the University of California, Berkeley, I experienced some unexpected, funny, and sometimes embarrassing(令人尴尬的)situations。 Allow me to share some with you。
But first, let me give advice to other foreign students who plan to study in the United States。 Check the weather before coming! I was very sure that California was sunny all year around so I left all my jackets and sweaters in Paris。 It was a huge mistake! It rained almost every day during the first week in Berkeley。
I have to say that I quickly forgot these unlucky events。 Life in Berkeley is very pleasant and everything is so easy compared to Paris。 For example, in only 24 hours I bought a mobile phone and made the lease(租约)agreement for a flat。 What's more, almost all the shops are open on Sunday, which is very practical for me。
The first thing that surprised me is that students may come late to class。 They freely enter and leave the classroom many times during class。 In France, students respect the teacher's lesson, so they are never late and they leave the classroom only at the end of the class。
The local people in California are in general very nice, open and active。 However, I am not totally used to their habits yet。 Indeed, I was used to shaking my friends'
