Read the conversation below about two friends, Frazer and June . Understand the conversation and answer the questions.

 

Frazer: Hi June.

 

June: Oh, hey there Frazer.

 

Frazer: Aww, what's with  a sad face there June?

 

June: Oh, nothing much. Just that I always feel anxious every time the exam comes up, especially the final exam like the SAT is around the corner and I want to graduate high school on time before turning 18 while also getting the university that I wanted.

 

Frazer: Oh,  I see. You're stressed that you have way too many things you have to achieve for the exam.

 

June: Yes Frazer, I'm a bit bothered and anxious that what if I could not get straight A's in the upcoming exam. Both my parents already put high hope for me to pass with flying colors. I just don't know what to do. If I study less, I won' get to score but if I study too much, I get stressed way too much. I'm actually clueless right now.

 

Frazer: I see. Look June, I know you're the hope of your family, but you could slow down a bit on the studying. Remember the phrase "All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy"?

 

June: Yeah, I know that famous phrase.

 

Frazer: My point is that your success will surely determine your future, but does it truly determine your true dreams?

 

June: I'm not so sure about it myself because getting those good grades have always been goals set for me by parents, but is it really what I wanted? I guess that  eases off my anxiety a little bit and I will try going out a lot more and spending time with friends to let off the steam from studying too much. Thank you Frazer for opening my mind. It already made me feel a bit better now.

 

Frazer: No problem June. I hope that you get to achieve the things you have always targeted and always be happy with your life.
