Dear Miss Smithers,

        Thank you for your letter asking for my advice.

         To begin with, if I were you, I would try to find ways to change my life. If you met some new people, you wouldn’t feel lonely. If you went out more often, you would feel much happier. If you joined a club, you would make friends more easily. Finally, if you took up some hobbies, you would feel a lot better and a lot more confident.

       I hope my advice will help.

                                                                            Best wishes,

                                                                                       Dorothy
