Lucy, you're back. How was your first day of school?
It was great. I had a really good time.
What classes did you have?
Well, I had English from 9 o'clock to 11 o'clock, art from 12 o'clock to 2 o'clock, and math from 2 o'clock to 4 o'clock.
What do you think about the teachers?
To be honest, I liked all of them, except for the math teacher. Though he must be quite young, he seem like an old person. He's so boring!
That's too bad. How was your English teacher?
She was great. In today's class, she gave us a lecture on how to be a good student. She told us not to arm for exams, and to pay more attention on communicating than memorizing.
Where is she from?
She said that she's from a small town in the middle of America.
Were you able to understand everything that she said?
Not everything, but nearly. She speaks very clearly and doesn't use very complex words so that it is easy for us to understand her.
She sounds like a good teacher. Do you think you'll pass her class?
Yes. . . with flying colors!
What does that mean?
It's a new phrase that she taught us today. It means that I will not only pass the class, but I will do extremely well!
If you like the class this much already, I'm sure you will.
I hope so.
did she give you any homework?
not today. She said she wanted us to relax tonight instead of doing homework,
