Dear Jenny,

How are you getting along these days? I hope everything is all right. But I am upset these days because of my parents. I think they take care too much about me and too overvalue my grades. I have to tell them my every exam and my grades. If I do well, they are happy. If I don't, they would be every sad and nervous, especially my mother. My mother even makes a detailed plan for my future. In her plan, I will go the best senior school of my city and then go to a top university of our country. She wants me to be a civil servant in the future, because this job is steady and well-paid. But I don't like it; I want to be a journalist. I feel so upset about her plan. I told them my feelings before, but they never listened to me and said what they doing are good for me. What should I do?

I think I need someone to talk to and look forward to your reply.

Lovely yours,

Juliet

亲爱的珍妮：

最近怎么样？希望你一切都好。最近我很烦恼，因为我觉得我的父母太过关心我了，并且过度重视我的学习成绩。每次考试我都要告诉他们，考完还要汇报成 绩。如果我考得好，他们会很高兴，如果考得不好，他们会很难过，很忧虑，特别是我的妈妈。她为我的未来制定了一个详细的计划。在她的计划里，我要考上我们 这里最好的高中然后是国内一流的大学。她想我以后当一名公务员，因为这份工作既稳定又高薪。但我并不喜欢当一名公务员，我想成为一名记者。我很反感她的计 划。我之前曾告诉过他们我的感受，但他们从来不听我说，并声称他们所做的都是为了我好。我应该怎么办？

或许我需要一个人来听我倾诉，希望收到你的回信。
