Teachers just don’t understand

Teachers just don’t understand

Mrs. Johnson didn’t sleep very well last night because she had to take care of her daughter who got a sick. She was too tired to go to school. But there were no sick leave she could use up. She had already used up all of them. Then her husband came home. They talked for a while. Mrs. Johnson cried. She was very worried about her daughter and the relationship between them. Her husband comforted her and told her not to be so worry about every thing. Then she went to school. She was nearly late for school. After talking with the principal and the secretary, she went to her class room. When she called their name to hand in the homework, one student named Ronnie Taylor said that he didn’t have time doing homework. Mrs. Johnson was very angry and called him to the office. He met Frank in the hall. He asked Ronnie where he going. Ronnie answered him that he was going to the office and he didn’t know what happened to Mrs. Johnson. Then he told Frank that teachers just don’t understand. The impressive thing they did is the conversation between Ronnie and Frank. Ronnie didn’t to collect his thoughts, but to tell other person that his teacher was so strange. The conversation like this kind is very funny to me. So the conversation between Ronnie and Frank is very impressed me.

What I learned after reading the article is that never affect other people when I am in a bad mood. It is a very usual thing that people would in bad mood. But when you are in the bad mood, don’t affect other people. Because that’s your problems, it’s not their business. They don’t have to be blame by you or something. So remember, don’t affect other people when you get angry next time.

Summary of Amelia Bedelia

Summary of Amelia Bedelia

The story “Amelia Bedelia” written by Peggy Parish is about a girl who totally mistakes other people’s meaning. She is hired to be a housekeeper in a rich family. The host of the house can’t stay with her but write a list to her instead. The girl reads the list and then does the things on the list at the same time. However, the girl totally mistakes the real meaning on the list. She does all the things wrong. Before she does these things, she makes a lemon-meringue pie to give them a surprise. Then the host and his wife come back. The hostess sees all the wrong things she does getting very angry and wants to fire her. But after eats the lemon-meringue pie she makes, the host and the hostess decide to let the girl stay at the home working.

My favorite part of the story is the girl does those things which she mistakes very hard. Although she mistakes all of the things on the list, she still does it very hard. She doesn’t thinks that it is so strange and then doesn’t do it. I like her spirit.

If I am in her shoes. I would not do the things so hard like her. But it not right. I would learn her spirit like that.

My favorite song

My favorite song is “The Angel”, one song was composed by “Mayday”. Maybe you will ask me who is “Mayday”. Well, “Mayday” is a very famous band, and also my favorite band. There are five people in the band. I love them and their music very much. Their music has many different styles. Some make people get high, another make people feel sad and the other make people touched. They are all talented. Almost every song in their albums was composed by themselves, no matter the melody or the lyric. And this song “The Angel”, which is my favorite song, is one song in the latest album. I like the song as soon as I listen to it at first time. Whenever I listen to the song, it makes me feel warm and touched. The melody is so pleasing to ear and the words is really meaningful. As a matter of fact, I like all of Mayday’s songs. If you want me to choose one that I like best. Admit of no doubt, I will tell you this song “The Angel”.
