Dear Liu Wei,
Thanks for your attention to our magazine. After reading your letter, I know you are in trouble with your family. Don’t worry. I’d like to tell you something about myself when I was at the same age as you…Nowadays you meet the problems which are still the common in the modern society. Here I want to give you some advice: First, you must honor your parents, not shout at them. Second, maybe you can often talk to your parents to let them understand you. ….
I hope it’s helpful to you .I’m looking forward to receiving your good news.
Yours,
Mr Zhu
