Hi, Li Ming. You look upset. What's the matter?
There will be a parents'meeting in our class this Saturday and I am worried about it.
Why? We can leave school earlier that day.
I didn't do well in last exams. If my father knows it, he will beat me up.
I can't believe it. My parents never beat me.
You know that my father is irritable.
You can ask the teacher for help.
Good idea.
