Jodi was a very
good student and always
studied hard for tests. She had a big
Math test coming up and she was worried
about it. She'd
reviewed all of her notes
and had spent hours going over sample
problems.
Dan has always
been pretty independent.
He has always been willing to do
things
for himself. His mom has gone to visit his
aunt for the
weekend, and Dan and his dad
are home alone. Dan has a baseball
game
tomorrow, but his only uniform is dirty.
Mary didn't know how to swim. She just
never
learned how, and she was
embarrassed about it. None of her
friends knew, and she avoided situations
where anyone might find out.
Today she's
really bored, and she was wishing she had
something to do,
when the phone rang. It
was her friend Sharon asking her if
she
wanted to go to the city pool.
Pete likes to go
to the movies. He often
goes with his friends. On
Saturday he was
sitting at home with nothing to do, when his
friend
Jon called. Jon was at the theater
and wanted Pete to join
him. The movie
started in ten minutes, but no one was home
to
drive Pete.
Kate was pretty
forgetful. Her mother
usually had to remind her to do
everything
2 or 3 times. When Kate's mom left for
work this
morning she reminded Kate to
close the windows if she went out,
because
the forecast called for rain. When Kate's
friend
called and asked her to come over to
watch a video, Kate was really
excited.
