阅读下面的一封信,然后按照要求用英语写一篇150词左右的回信。
Dear Abby,
Last month my son was told that he no longer has to attend weekend classes at his school.  Since then he spends his weekends going out with his friends to play sports or watch movies.  When he is at home all he seems to do is surf the Internet or play silly computer games. I really think he is just wasting his time having fun when he should be studying. I sometimes ask him if he has homework or extra study to do, but he always says that he has already completed it all. This change makes me very worried. I feel that this free time is encouraging him to be lazy. He isn’t studying long enough and this will reduce his chances of getting into university. I also think it will cause problems when he begins to work because he will not be able to concentrate well and will think more of having fun than his job. I have considered going to the school principal and asking him to change their decision but my son says if I do so his classmates will laugh at him. I don’t want to embarrass my child but I don’t want him to fall behind either.
Please help.
Concerned Mum

参考答案

Dear Concerned Mum,

    In your letter you say that the extra free time your son has is causing him to become lazy and neglect his studies. You fear that this will affect his future both at university and at work. 

    I quite understand how you feel but still I think you may be worrying unnecessarily. The extra free time may actually help his studies. Using this time to relax and have fun can refresh both his mind and his body, allowing him to study more effectively. Remember the quantity of study isn’t as important as the quality of study. Spending more time with his friends will also help him develop his social skills. This is very important when he finally enters the workforce. 

    Naturally you don’t want your son to fall behind. But wait until his next exams before judging the effects of the change. If you find there’s a problem then you could send him to private weekend classes or even make him to spend 3 hours on each day of the weekend at home doing extra study.

Yours sincerely,
Abby
