狄克生片語u2

   I got up in the early morning as usual and turned on the radio to listen to English Classroom on the air.  I turned it off when the program came to an end.  Putting on my uniform and picking up my books off the desk, I went out to wait for the bus.  At first I was patient enough to look at each bus passing, trying to find out the number of the bus I was to get on.  Little by little I grew impatient, for it was about time for school to begin.  It seemed I had to call up my teacher at school and ask for absent leave.

        Right then the bus came, and I arrived at school at last.  Everything turned out all right, but I felt tired out.
