The bell for class rang. All the students took out their  1  , waiting for the teacher. Our Chinese teacher, Miss Liu, had told us before that we were going to write a composition 2  class.

A minute passed, and another,   3  the teacher didn't appear. We began to wonder what the matter with her was. Was she ill? Or had she forgotten about the class?    4  could tell. Soon some students began to study other subjects, some students began to talk and even made  5  .

About ten minutes later, the door opened and Miss Liu   6  came in, smiling. She didn't say sorry to the class. We felt   7  angry. The teacher often told us never to be late for class and said it was   8  manners to be late. She also said that if we were late, we should make an apology (道歉)   9  at once or after class. But now she was late and had kept the whole class waiting for such a long time and didn't even tell us the reason. It was unfair.

There is one word you must learn before you visit the USA. That is “Freeze”. Remember it has a special meaning besides the usual one. It means “stand still and don’t move”. Often policemen use it when they are ready to use their guns. If one doesn’t obey the order and moves, he or she will be shot to death.

One evening in Los Angeles, someone rang the bell of a house. It was a dangerous area at night, so the owner of the house took his gun with him when he answered the door. He opened the door and saw a strange man. But the man turned round and started walking away from the house. The owner cried: “Freeze”, but the young man went on walking without obeying the owner’s order. The owner thought he was trying to run away, so he shot at the young man and he was killed.

Later, police found that the dead man was a Japanese student who was studying in Los Angeles University. He went to visit a friend, but unluckily could not remember the number of the house. When he realized he went to the wrong house he turned round and left. He didn’t know much English and so didn’t understand the word “Freeze”. What a lesson we should get for this!
