1. Never Get Obsessed with your Appearance. 絕不要為自己的外貌而煩惱。

We think you look great (though some of the outfits you wear worry us!). Please be happy with the person you are and the body you have. Eat sensibly, take exercise and be healthy. Some girls become obsessed with losing weight or getting the perfect shape. You look fine。

我們認(rèn)為你長(zhǎng)得很美(盡管你穿的某些時(shí)裝令我們擔(dān)憂!)。你就是你，不要為自己的外貌煩惱。要合理膳食，多做運(yùn)動(dòng)，保持健康。有些女孩子為減肥或塑造完美的身材而煩惱。但你已經(jīng)很好了。

2. Never Get Involved with a Married Man. 絕不要和已婚男人糾纏不清。

There are plenty of great single men out there. Don't get entangled with a married man no matter how attractive he is--it will end in your tears。

外面有許多優(yōu)秀的單身男人。不要和已婚男人攪在一起，不管他多么有魅力——不然你就等著以淚洗面吧。

3. Never Compromise Your Personal Safety. 絕不要危及個(gè)人安全。

Never put yourself at serious risk. This means that you cannot trust people until you really know them and that sometimes you have to avoid things that look like they might be fun. Never get drunk or take drugs. Unfortunately there are some malevolent people out there and it is best not to take undue risks。

絕不要讓自己處于危險(xiǎn)的境地。就是說(shuō)，不要相信還不真正了解的人，有時(shí)還要回避看似有趣的活動(dòng)。絕不要酗酒或吸毒。不幸的是，這個(gè)社會(huì)總還是有不好的人，所以最好不要過(guò)度冒險(xiǎn)。

4. Never Live Beyond Your Means. 生活費(fèi)用絕不要超支。

Throughout life try to keep your spending within your income and so save a little. Avoid getting into debt if possible. There are some exceptions--like getting a mortgage to buy a house--but generally if you can live within your means you will avoid all sorts of problems。

生活上要努力保持收支平衡，所以應(yīng)該存點(diǎn)錢(qián)。在可能的情況下避免負(fù)債。當(dāng)然可以有些例外——如抵押貸款買(mǎi)房子——但是總的來(lái)說(shuō)，如果你能保持收支平衡就能避免各種麻煩。

5. Never Despise Yourself. 絕不要看不起自己。

You are great and capable of achieving great things so believe in yourself. When things go badly never stop believing. Some girls get depressed, blame themselves and lose self-esteem. All sorts of problems can follow。

你很優(yōu)秀，也有能力獲得美好的前程，因此要相信自己。身處逆境的時(shí)候也絕不放棄。有些女孩子會(huì)因此消沉下去，怪罪自己，從而失去自尊。那樣一來(lái)，各種問(wèn)題都會(huì)隨之而來(lái)。

6. Never Give Less Than Your Best. 永遠(yuǎn)盡力而為。

We are very proud of what you have accomplished so far. You should be proud too. Keep doing well. Keep trying your hardest at everything you do. No one can ask for more than that。

我們?yōu)槟阋讶〉玫某删透械津湴粒阋矐?yīng)該感到自豪。繼續(xù)好好干。繼續(xù)在任何事上都盡最大努力。沒(méi)人能要求更多了。

7. Never Forget that Your Parents Love You. 絕不要忘記你的父母愛(ài)你。

Whatever happens in life, your family will still be your family. Whatever difficulties you encounter you can always talk to us and we will try to help. We are here for you。

生活中無(wú)論發(fā)生了什么，家始終是你的家。無(wú)論你遇到什么困難，你都可以告訴家人，家人會(huì)盡力幫助你，他們是你永遠(yuǎn)的堅(jiān)強(qiáng)后盾。
