Dear Sue ,
How time flies. It is a month that you stayed with us. We all miss you and are very grateful to what you did for us when we were together.
We had an English speech contest the others day and I won the first prize, which again remind me of all your kind help.

How to Be Happy in Your Life
Newborn Learning shouldn’t stop once you graduate from school. 1.As an individual, you must constantly seek for more ways to grow. There are always new things to learn and adventures left to be discovered.
Support a cause

to force yourself to support something you don’t believe in. You only need to look at your interests and see which ones you need to take some immediate actions.
3.
The first step to learning is accepting that you’re likely to make mistakes. Once you’ve accepted that, you’ll have an easier time taking in things and risking everything in favor of your passion.

While we all try to find happiness, sometimes we still end up feeling low. While most people can control this feeling, low moods can stay with some, leading to depression. About 322 million people suffered from depression in 2015, according to a report by the World Health Organization in February. This is more than 4 percent of the world’s population.
Depression is described by the WHO as a mental disorder. It has several symptoms including sadness, loss of interest and feelings of low self-worth. In severe cases, depression may even lead to suicide.
The number of people living with depression is increasing. The WHO reported a rise of 18.4 percent between 2005 and 2015. Young people are a group known to suffer with depression. “The pressures on today’s youth are like no other generation, perhaps,” Dan Chisholm, an official of WHO, told Reuters.
In China, depression among young people is on the rise, Zhu Zhuohong, a psychology professor with the Chinese Academy of Sciences, told Xinhua News Agency. Competition to outperform others, especially in education, can cause a lot of pressure for Chinese youth.
Almost 1.2 million Chinese people aged 15 to 24 suffer from depression, according to a report released by British science journal The Lancet in May.
Luckily, more and more efforts are being made to deal with this problem. This year’s World Health Day, held on April 7, will focus on depression. The day will highlight (强调) the “Depression: let’s talk” campaign. The campaign aims to make sure that people with depression both seek and get help.
