Dear Alice，
You really have two different questions here，so we’ll discuss them one at a time．
Your problems at school may be a result of a number of things．You don’t say much about how these classmates get along with each other．It’s possible that all the students are feeling a little cautious(謹(jǐn)慎的) in the first term．
It’s also possible that the others are unkind．If this is so，you have to find out why you are the class “outsider．”
In your letter you say you often offer to help others with their work．Is it possible that your classmates don’t understand your offers? Could it seem that you were trying to“buy”friends with these offers?
Is it possible that you took no notice of your classmates when you had your good friend near you? They may have felt hurt at that time．It may take a time for them to believe in you if so．Try to ask one classmate directly what the problem is．If you hear a negative(負(fù)面的)answer，at least you’ll know what to do．
Yours truly，
Shelia

      The girl asked two questions in her letter．

"I didn’t hear them call my name," explained Shelley Hennig to Active Teens (AT) as she talked about that exciting moment on national television when she won the honor of Miss Teen USA 2004. "Are you ready?" is what she heard. Then she said, "I shook my head no, and then they said ‘yes’ and it was announced again."
It was four days after that life changing moment for the seventeen-year-old high school student from Destrehan, Louisiana—she was still on cloud nine.
"I was so shocked! I never believed that it could actually really happen." Present in the audience that day were: her mother and father, older brother, her friends, and her dance teacher.
Understanding why members of her family and her friends would be there, AT asked why her dance teacher had traveled so far to see her compete（比賽）."She’s always been my role model. I’ve danced with her since I was six. She’s been through so many difficulties and came through them all. I’ve learned to get over bad life’s experiences and learned how to move on because of her."
One of those bad life’s experiences for Shelley happened three years ago when her brother Brad was killed in a drunk driving accident. He was 18. She found writing helped her get through the hard days. She said, "I write a lot about my brother. I write a lot, a lot, a lot...”
As Miss Louisiana Teen, she traveled around the state speaking to teens about the dangers of drinking and driving. In her role as Miss Teen USA, Shelley will continue to speak to youth about safe driving, in addition to(除…之外) many other things to help the youth.
When AT asked Miss Teen USA if she had any advice for our readers, she said, "Don’t let anyone change you. Hang out with people that make you feel good about yourself. That way, it is easy to be yourself."
【小題1】What do the words “on cloud nine” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?
