Tom was seven years old. He went to a school near his house. He could go there and come home by bus or by school bus every day, but he always went to school and came home on foot. He usually got home on time, but last Friday he came home late from school when he ran into the house, his mother was in the sitting room. When she saw him, she said, “Why are you late today?”
“My teacher was angry and sent me to the headmaster after school, ” Tom answered,
“Because she asked a question in class,” Tom said, “and nobody gave her the answer except me.”
His mother was angry , “But why did the teacher send you to the headmaster then? Why didn’t she send all the other children?” she asked.
“Because her question was ‘Who put glue （胶水） on my chair!”
