30、grades for the year. At this rate he would never graduate. I sent him to the school adviser, and I even begged him. Nothing worked.One night I felt so powerless that I got down on my knees and pleaded for help. “Please God, I cant do anything more for my son. Im at the end of my rope. Im giving the
31、whole thing up to you.” Just then, I got a phone call.

39、city where there are other foreigners to mix with, rather than a small town where English teachers often complain of feeling like a goldfish in a bowl.
