"Get up， get up， Jim。 It’s time to get up!" my mother said while she was pushing me。 I opened my eyes and looked at the clock。 ”Oh dear！ It's a quarter to eight already. I'll be late for school again," I thought. I jumped out of the bed， washed my face, then hurried to the bus stop without breakfast。 As soon as I got on the bus， it started running. "I'm sure I can get to the school on time，” I said to myself. Suddenly the bus stopped。 The bus driver got off the bus， then got on the bus again and said, "I'm sorry, ladies and gentlemen. There’s something wrong with the bus。 Please get off the bus and wait for another one.” ”I couldn't wait。 The school is not far。 I’d better run to the school，” I thought, and then I began to run。 But before I got to the school, it began to rain hard。
I reached the classroom but I was wet shivering with cold. The physics teacher had already begun his lesson。 It was Mr。 Smith。 He was about fifty years old. All the students were a little afraid of him and so was I. I liked neither him nor his physics lessons。 I hesitated for a moment and then I opened the door。 ”I'm very sorry， Mr. Smith。 I'm late again," I said with a red face.
”It's you again, Jim，” Mr. Smith said angrily。 "I've told you not be late, but you…” he suddenly stopped and looked at my wet clothes。 He turned to the class and said， "I'm very sorry， my boys and girls.” With these words he quickly took off his own jacket and handed it to me. ”Now take off your wet coat and put this one or you’ll catch cold,” he said kindly.
I went to my seat with Mr。 Smith’s jacket on. It was a bit large for me but I felt very warm in it. I found， for the first time, physics was so interesting and how well I could understand it!

Mike Myers is a teacher at Chauncey Rose High School in Terre Haute， Indiana. Last year， he taught his students about the world’s rain forests. They learned that rain forests are important because the plants and animals of the rain forest give us food, wood, and medicine。

Each student chose something specific about Costa Rica to study involving the plants， animals， food, and culture。 During the last few days the group had time to do fun activities。 They went whitewater rafting and horseback riding， and visited Costa Rica's active volcano.
