—Why _______ buy her a scarf?
I work in a very busy office in a primary school.One morning, I got a phone call from a man.
“Please help me, Mrs. Black!” the man said on the phone.“My girl's teacher asked her to spell ten words.Could you please help her to finish the homework?”
Of course, that wasn't my job, but I still asked,“Do you want me to do the homework?”
“Yes, it won't take you long to finish it,” the man said.
“Well, that was not really why the teacher gave her the homework.She needs to learn to spell the words by herself,” I explained.
“So what should I do then?” the man asked.
I told him to bring his daughter to the library.There she could look up the words in a dictionary.The man said he would like to go there.I put down the phone and shook my head.
Fifteen minutes later, I was surprised to see my father walk to my office and put a piece of paper in front of me, saying, “This was your homework twenty years ago, Jenny.Let's go to the library to finish it now.”

C .
A:Hi, Jenny! You look unhappy.
B:Oh… I argued with my mom just now.
A:
B:Because she didn't buy a selfie stick (自拍杆) for me.
A:A selfie stick?
B:It can help take photos easily. It's cheap, only 25 yuan.
A:
B:Good idea! But how can I make money if I buy it by myself? Do you have any good ideas?
A:Yes.
B:Yes, I can. I can do the dishes and do some cleaning.
A:Green Restaurant wants a helper. You can have a try. It pays you 10 yuan an hour.
B:Sounds great. I'll have a try.

Dear friends. I don't feel well these days. I get lots of headaches and don't sleep well at night. My parents send me to all kinds of after-school classes to learn English, music, physics and math. I'm too tired. I really don't know what to do. Could you please give me some advice? |
Dear friend,
