Dear Pam,

1First of all, thank you for writing me this letter. I am sorry to hear about the problems you are dealing with. The way you describe your mother, the love and hate, is, as psychologist and psychoanalyst Prof Alessandra Lemma said, can be “completely normal” and yet it's extremely difficult to cope with.

2No wonder every memory of your mother (1. ...) you so much. It must be exhausting to see her that (2. ...) even when you're not with her. You shouldn't (3. ...) you. Here's what I think you should do: have a second look at how and where you set the (4. ...). Are you taking on too much? Do you need to go that often if these visits leave you feeling that bad? Can your brother help in any way?

3Perhaps, reconsider your idea that “it's never worth arguing with her”. I am imagining that your (5. ...) upbringing was quite strict and painful not to argue with her, you stopped disagreeing. But, as you say, you (6. ...) your anger; where do you think that goes?

4It's good that your mum does try to repair things. It would be a good idea to try – maybe over an email in response to hers – saying something such as, “Why do you (7. ...) every time I try to do things my way? I come to help you, but I don't like it when you speak to me like this, please stop.”

5Your mother isn't young, but late 70s isn't old, either. It might be worth trying to explain, at least once, how you feel, maybe even saying that if she only wants to do things her way, she should do them herself.

6I hope you will find my advice useful.

Best wishes,
Angela

Writing a letter giving advice

d. Read a letter giving advice. Find and correct any structural mistakes that the writer made. Check the answer on page 39.

Dear Zach,

1Maybe I can give you some advice and things will get better soon.

2Hope my advice works. Let me know what happens.

3Your first problem is about your weight. The first thing you should do is stop blaming yourself for eating. You are growing up, and you need these calories because your body consumes a lot of energy. Nevertheless, you should follow a healthy diet. I also suggest that you could try doing some healthy exercises, such as yoga or pilates. It is a good way to get rid of unhealthy fat and keep fit and healthy. If you keep on doing these, I'm sure you will become slimmer and healthier. As for the problem with your English, why don't you listen to English songs and watch TV programmes in English? Your last problem is about your relationships with your parents. What you should do is try to talk to them and come to an agreement. If you agree to play by their rules, I promise, they will be less uptight. I also suggest that you should set some boundaries – they mustn't violate your privacy.
