Dear Amy,
Is there any way I can get my mum to drive to school? She says walking is good exercise. My friend
Ann lives closer to the school, but her mum drives her to school. She is there in two or three minutes! Going
by car is the fastest way. She doesn't get wet if it is mining either. It takes me about ten minutes to walk to
school. If it rains, I'll get wet. It isn't fair} What shall I do?
Mary
Dear Mary,
I think you want me to feel sorry for you! But I don't feel sorry for you. I think you just want a few
more minutes in bed in the morning. Walking is good exercise! Lots of people don't get enough exercise,
so I think it is probably a good, idea for you to walk. You are going to school in the healthiest way. You
may not be the closest to the school, but you are close. A ten-minute walk to school each day will help to
keep you fit. Maybe you need an umbrella for wet days? I'm sure your mother has made sure you have a
good coat and. boots (雨靴) for wet days. Maybe you just don't want to use them because they are not in?
Try to think positively (积极地) about the walk!
Amy
