I raised my hand right away and said,“Mrs.Smith, you see, the doctor said I have attention problems. I might not be able

13、so it was quite a surprise when it came back to me the next day- with an“A” on it.

16、on your coat,” said the man at the petrol station. “Is it raining out there?”“No, its pretty nice,” I replied, checking my sleeve. “Oh, right. A pony(马驹) bit me earlier.”As it happened, the bite was virtually painless: more the kind of small bite you might get from a naughty child. The pony responsi
17、ble was queuing up for some ice cream in the car park near Haytor, and perhaps thought Id jumped in ahead of him.The reason why the ponies here are naughty is that Haytor is a tourist-heavy area and tourists are constantly feeding the ponies foods, despite sighs asking them not to.

19、beyond their limited area can be returned to their correct area.

20、r on his back. “Hello!” I said to him, assuming he was just rolling for fun, but he was very still and, as I got closer, I saw him kicking his legs in the air and breathing heavily.

28、gs. Yet its the only way to explain what weve done to the night: Weve engineered it to receive us by filling it with light.
