Smile Train is a charity that helps the millions of children around the world，who suffer from a facial defect（缺陷）.The defect happens when a baby's top lip or mouth doesn't form properly before birth.Eating and drinking are very difficult for these babies.The charity provides free operations（手術），which give these children a new smile，and with it，new hope，and a new beginning.
Children with the defect need all the help.Although many patients are accepted by their families，sadly，others are not.In some countries，children with this defect are often abandoned（遺棄）at birth because their parents feel ashamed of them or cannot afford the operations.The good news is that the operation is not difficult.It takes less than an hour and costs the family nothing.The charity raises money and finds the right medical volunteers to do the operations.
A Smile Train doctor from the UK said， "Each child who has the operation is given a second chance at life.After years of staying at home，the children can finally go to school and be happy.Every year I do hundreds of operations free of cost through Smile Train.Some of the stories I have heard are quite surprising.One newborn baby girl was found abandoned on a train.Luckily for her，she was found and adopted by a passenger.This lady then heard about Smile Train and brought the baby to our hospital.I did the operation and gave hope to the family.Experienced doctors like me share our skills with local doctors.In this way we make sure that these operations will always be available（可獲得的）."

1．Dear Dr Lee，
The days of mine are not all sunny.As a middle school student，I have many problems.On the one hand，I am under great pressure（壓力） in my studies，I need to take the exams every month.If I fall behind other students，I will feel that I am not doing well.I always want to be the best，but things can't go on my way.On the other hand，I don't want to talk to my parents about my problems.If they ask me questions，I will answer them with few words.I think they won't understand me.And my body grows fast，changes happen in me，I can't control my emotion（情緒）.What should I do？
LauraDear Laura，
It's normal to have these problems.But don't worry.The life is not always wonderful.Everybody has growing pains（痛苦） on their way to the growth.But the time is fair（公平的），gains（收獲） are always with pains.Growing pains seem full of knowledge and experience.Although there's so much homework，so many exams，and so many different ideas between the parents and you，you will learn how to make your dreams come true by working hard and how to understand each other by talking with your parents.Growing pains worry you a lot but they will give you power（力量） and confidence（自信） at the same time.They can help you to be successful and make more friends as well.Successes and friendships can make you happy and enjoyable.Both pains and gains can make your life more colorful.So I think what you need to do is learning to adjust（調(diào)節(jié)） yourself and get used to these changes.You need to open your heart and have less pressure.

2．Dear Laura，
Thanks for your message.Yes，I'm having a great time on my exchange program in France.I was a bit nervous before I arrived here，but there was no reason to be.My host family is really nice.They go out of their way to make me feel at home.The grandmother has a teenage granddaughter about my age who is rally kind.She always talks to me in French to help me practice.And you wouldn't believe how quickly my French has improved!I'm very comfortable speaking French now.
Although I still make lots of mistakes，it doesn't worry me as it used to.
My biggest challenge is learning how to behave at the dinner table As you can imagine，things are really different from the way they are at home.For example，you shouldn't put your bread on your plate.You are supposed to put it on the table!I thought that was pretty strange at first，but now I'm used to it.You shouldn't eat anything with your hands except bred，not even fruit!You have to cut it up and eat it with a fork.Another thing is that it is very impolite to say you're full If you don't want any more food，you should just say， "It was delicious.".Also，you shouldn't put your elbow on the table I have to say that I find it difficult to remember everything，but I'm gradually getting used to it.I don't find French customs so strange any more.
Dear Laura，I'll write again soon and tell you more about my life in France.Hope you are having a good school year.
Yours，
Lin Yue
