Dear Alice,
You really have two different questions here, so we’ll discuss them together. Your problems
at school may be a result of a number of things. You don’t say much about how these classmates
get along with each other. It’s possible that all the students are feeling a little cautious (谨慎) in
the first term. It’s also possible that the others are unkind. If this is so, you have to find out why
you are the class “outside.”
In your letter you say you are always ready to help others with their work. Is it possible that
your classmates don’t understand your kindness? Could it seem that you were trying to “buy”
friends with kindness?
Is it possible that you took no notice of your classmates when you had your good friends near
you? They may have felt hurt at that time. It may take a time for them to believe in you if so. Try
to ask one classmate directly what the problem is. If you hear a negative (负面的) answer, at least
you’ll know what to do.
Yours truly,
Shelia
