The young man had already begun to think he’d chosen the wrong bus to take.
The children were hot, tired, and bored, and behaving 177 . The youngest girl was singing the first line of a song, over and over again. Everything the aunt said began with ‘Don’t’ and everything the children said began with ‘ 178 ’.
“Don’t put your feet on the seat, Cyril!”
“Why not ”
“Because you’ll make it dirty. And don’t always look at the man. That’s not 179 . Oh, look at those sheep in that field”
Nearly every field the bus had travelled past had sheep in it, so the aunt’s 180 was difficult to explain. “Why is that man taking the sheep into the other field ” asked the younger girl.
“Perhaps there’s more grass in that field,” 181 the aunt.
“But there’s lots of grass in both fields.”
“Well, perhaps the grass is better in the other field.”
“That doesn’t make any 182 . Why is it better ” came the immediate question from Cyril.
The young man was looking angry. “I imagine he doesn’t like 183 .” the aunt thought.
“Come and sit over here, all of you, and I’ll tell you a story,” she said.
The children did not look at all 184 by the aunt’s offer. They’d obviously heard her stories before, and this one was very boring indeed.
“Oh, it’s definitely the most 185 story I’ve ever heard,” said Cyril.
“Yes. I didn’t even care to listen to it,” the younger girl said, and began singing the first line of her song again.

Do you remember the useful sentences like “It’s a piece of cake” or “It serves you right” in English learning They carry more 186 than the words themselves. In Chinese culture, we also have lots of similar useful expressions like “drinking ink (墨水)” and “An inch (寸) of time is worth an inch of gold”.
“Drinking ink” is a common expression to show that a person is 187 . Is there anyone who really drinks ink It could be true in Chinese history. During the Northern Qi Dynasty, those who 188 very badly in the exam would be punished by drinking one liter (升) of ink. Even if they were found to have poor handwriting or make up something terrible, they would be taken into a special room to drink ink. The rule was accepted by the following dynasties. Nowadays, this expression is 189 used to describe people’s ways of receiving education or their level of education. For example, “drinking foreign ink” means one has studied overseas. “Drinking little ink” means a 190 level of education.
sundial
“An inch of time is worth an inch of gold” means that an inch of time has the same 191 as an inch of gold. It is also the first half of a saying, “An inch of time is worth an inch of gold, but an inch of time cannot be bought 192 an inch of gold”. In ancient times, time was measured (测量) by inches because people used the sundial as a time-keeping tool. It is made of a flat and 193 plate on which time degrees are shown. As the sun moves from rising to setting, the length of the gnomon’s shadow changes from long to short and short to long. This is 194 the sundial tells time.

Amy was too excited. She ran quickly to 239 Mr. Green about it. He said to her, “Let it grow! Still be patient!”
Through summer, Amy watched and waited 240 patience (耐心). The plant grew taller and taller day by day. Finally golden petals(花瓣) came out and 241 a bright sunflower. It turned its face to follow the sun.
