Angie, Susan, Maria, and Kate went to school every morning by car. Their parents took turns driving them. One day, Susan’s mother drove the girls. After they arrived at school, Angie said,

安吉、苏珊、玛丽亚和凯特每天早上乘车上学。 他们的父母轮流开车。一天，苏珊的妈妈开车送女孩们。 他们到达学校后，安吉说，

“ I don’t want to take the math test today. Let’s go to class an hour late. ” ” Good idea, ” said Susan. “ I don’t want to take the test either. ” “ Neither do I, ” said Kate. “ I didn’t study. ”

“我今天不想参加数学考试。我们迟到一小时上课吧。” “好主意，”苏珊说。“我也不想参加考试。”“我也是，”凯特说。“我没有学习。”

“ I didn’t study either, ” said Maria. “ But what are we going to tell our teacher? He will be very angry if we come late. ” “ Yes, we need a good excuse, ” said Angie.

“我也没有学习，”玛丽亚说。“可是我们怎么跟老师说呢?”如果我们迟到了，他会很生气的。” “是的，我们需要一个好的借口，”安吉说。

“ Oh, that’s easy, ” said Susan. “ We’ll say that my mother’s car had a flat tire. ” All the girls agreed: it was the perfect excuse.

“哦，那很容易。”苏珊说。“我们就说我妈妈的车爆胎了。” 所有的女孩都同意：这是一个完美的借口。

So, they waited for an hour. When they arrived at class, the math test was over. The teacher was very angry. “ Why are you late?” he asked. The girls all started talking at once.

所以，他们等了一个小时。当他们到达课堂时，数学考试结束了。 老师很生气。“你们为什么迟到？”他问。 女孩们立刻开始说话。
