Dear Marjorie,
I’m having problems with my studies at school. I find it difficult to get down
to work in the evenings and I can’t concentrate on anything at the moment. I
spend most of my time listening to records or watching TV instead of doing my homework. The other students in my class are much better than I am and I have difficulty in keeping up with them. I sometimes have problems with following the lessons as well. I can’t always take in the important things my teacher says because I write so slowly. She has told me that I’m falling behind with my studies. I’m not good at writing essays and I usually hand in my homework late because I put off doing it until the last minute. So I often have to invent silly excuses to explain why I haven’t done the work. I’m sure I’m not going to get through my final exams in June. I’m now so far behind that I don’t know how I’m going to catch up with them.
My teacher spent some time going over my homework with me but she found so many mistakes that I felt even more depressed. What do you suggest I do?
Yours desperately,
George
A childless woman, on the advice of a sorceress, raised a girl out of a grain of a tulip an inch tall - Thumbelina. Cradle for her was a nut shell, a boat - a petal of a tulip in a dish with water and flowers, where the girl sailed and sang. One night she was stolen by a toad to make her a bride for her ugly son.
Thumbelina burst into tears from the fact that she considered herself ugly, although in fact she was very pretty. In winter, the girl left the forest and made her way to the mink of the field mouse. She warmed and fed the poor thing, left her at home and advised her to marry a rich mole. In the meantime, the mole was already begging for Thumbelina, and everyone was preparing for the wedding. In the autumn, the dowry was ready, and the girl's words that she did not want to marry a mole threatened her mouse with her teeth. The bird again offered to fly away - and this time Thumbelina did not refuse. In the warm edge of the swallow, she planted a girlfriend in a flower where the king of elves sat. He proposed to the beautiful woman; the wedding gave her a pair of beautiful wings.
