103、 eyes. Confused, I glanced toward my stonefaced teacher. Having no choice, I slowly raised the report I had slaved over, hoping to hide myself. “What could be causing everyone to act this way?”Quickly, I flashed back to the day Miss Lancelot gave me the task. This was the first real task I received
104、in my new school. It seemed simple: go on the Internet and find information about a man named George Washington.

105、wo people bearing the same name who looked completely different! One invented hundreds of uses for peanuts, while the other led some sort of army across America.

107、done wrong. As a classmate began his report, it all became clear, “My report is on George Washington, the man who started the American Revolution.” The whole world became quiet! How could I know that she meant that George Washington?Obviously, my grade was awful. Heartbroken but fearless, I decided
108、to turn this around. I talked to Miss Lancelot, but she insisted: No redos; no new grade. I felt that the punishment was not reasonable, and I believed I deserved a second chance.答案Paragraph 1: Consequently, I threw myself heartily into my work for the rest of the school year. Before class, I would
109、prepare for my lesson carefully. While in class, I listened to the teacher attentively. After class, I would go to the library, where I could read as many books as I wanted. I did all my homework on my own. If I had any questions, I would turn to the teacher for help.Paragraph 2: Ten months later, t
110、hat chance came. I found myself sitting in the headmasters office with my grandfather, now having an entirely different conversation. I smiled and flashed back to the embarrassing moment at the beginning of the year as the headmaster informed me of my option to skip the sixth grade.Justice is sweet!
