Here are two letters to George and his replies.
Dear George,
I’m fourteen and I’m much shorter for my age. What’s worse, I’m very fat. I want to be 55 kg and to be taller and then I can go to the school basketball team and enjoy myself. Can you help me?
Bob
| Dear George,
I’m learning French but I don’t get good marks. I don’t know why. Sometimes I want to give up, but I know I shouldn’t because languages are going to be very important. What should I do?
Alice
| Dear Bob,
Don’t worry if you’re shorter than your friends. Teenagers grow at different times. It doesn’t matter how heavy you are. You are still the same person. Plan your meals with your mum, and she can help you lose weight. Also, try taking more exercise.
George
| Dear Alice,
You’re right. You should never give up, and I’m sure that you’ve made more progress than you think. You can talk to your teacher and ask her what you should do to get a better grade. Talk to your friends who are good at French. Find something that helps you.
George

There is a little story about an insurance(保险) salesman in Tokyo. Even though this man tried very hard to promote the insurance, nobody bought it. One day, he came to a small temple and began to brag about his insurance. After listening to his introduction, the monk said: “Your recommendation of insurance can’t arouse any of my interests! When you are communicating with others, you must have the charm to attract others, or you will be unpromising in the future. Young man, try to change yourself!”
The salesman thought deeply about each word. From then on, he invited all his friends to point out his weakness and kept on improving himself bit by bit for all his life.
