Dear Li Hua，
This is Collins from Teens. I'm sorry to hear from you that you planned to drop out and find a job away from your parents. It is a very dangerous idea for a teenager like you to intend to make a living away from home.
As a high school student, it is natural for us to meet problems in our school life. Both our teachers and parents show their love to us every day in the form of praise, criticisms or even complaints. We should be aware of it and grateful to it.①
In my opinion, the most important duty for you today is to learn knowledge and learn how to deal with different difficulties at home and at school. To face the unknown world is our next step after graduation.②
I hope my idea will be useful to you.
Yours sincerely，
Collins
[解析] 第二段中，高级词汇运用很恰当。in the form of “以……形式”，praise “表扬”，criticism “批评”，complaint “唠叨”，be aware of “意识到”，be grateful to “对……感激”。
第三段中动词不定式运用很得心应手。to learn...and learn...作表语，how to deal with...作learn的宾语，to face...作主语。

Dear Mr President，
Our class has been studying a unit on first aid.
Yours sincerely，
Li Hua
One possible version：
Dear Mr President，
Our class has been studying a unit on first aid. It has been very useful because we have learnt about what to do to help someone who has had an accident.
We would like to have a course on first aid, because it would give information about many more situations. It would also give us the chance to practice firstaid treatments.
I suggest that the school should organize a first－aid course. We think such a course in the school is a necessary part of our education and will make us more useful members of our society. Perhaps we will even save someone's life one day.
Best regards!
Yours sincerely，
Li Hua
