And he does guess at meanings of words very well—it’s just that he doesn’t understand some words.

■Write as they do. (仿写)
We are to write as they do. That is to write a similar article as the one we read just now.
Help page
A “helpful uncle” is a person who gives advice as part of a school's regular features. In the past, this person was usually an older teacher, and explains the title of “uncle”.
An “helpful uncle” answers students’ questions about personal problems. In many cases, the problems, as well as the answers, are not real, but are written on the school blackboards or in the school newspapers, and the “helpful uncle” is actually a team of writers.
There are also similar pages available on the school net these days, and parents are invited to email to give advice about a problem. Many of the school net problem pages now contain advice from other people, instead of an “helpful uncle”.
