1. (2021八下·昌黎期末) 阅读理解

Hey, doctor. I'm a boy. My problem is that I'm very short. I feel so sad about it. In school no child is interested in talking to me. And I get bad grades. What should I do?

Hi, boy! No one is perfect. Don't be sad because of your shortcoming. Maybe you are not tall, but it doesn't mean anything about who you are or how you should live your life. Why don't you talk to your parents about your feelings? I think they will help you. As for your studies, there are many ways to improve, such as doing some reading every day, asking the teachers for help, and getting more sleep. To your friendship, I'm so sorry you feel no one is interested in talking to you. I'm sure there are children who would love to get to know you. Why don't you start conversations with others nicely first? Good luck and I hope this helps!
