“Eddy，no!” I screamed at my dog when I realized what he had done．My finished homework was completely ruined by Eddy．This had actually happened to me，unlike most kids just looking for an excuse．But Eddy looked at me with a cocked(竖起的)head as if to say．“What，cant a dog be hungry?”

    I couldn’t believe it；my dog had actually eaten my homework! Jenny．my step-mom, came into the room and saw my sadness, but assured me that the teacher would understand．I did not believe her. So Jenny wrote my teacher a note to explain the unfortunate incident. The next morning I didn’t want to go to school. I couldn’t  imagine how the teacher would punish me．

    I went into the classroom with the remains of my homework in my backpack．Maybe she wouldn’t check homework today. What if she found out that my homework was not intact(完整无缺)? I would disappoint her for sure．I didn’t want to disappoint her. “kids，take out your homework，”the teacher said just the same as she did  every day. I could feel my heart beating hard and fast. The teacher began checking everyone’s homework．She got closer；I hunted for homework that looked similar to avoid embarrassment．No luck. She came closer “Kyle, where is your homework?” she asked．Unable to produce a similar worksheet, I reluctantly(不情愿地)handed over my sorry excuse for homework．

    She began to laugh. Why was she laughing? Was I going to disappoint her? Would I be forever laughed? “I never thought I would see the day that excuse would actually be true，”she gasped(喘息).

    Every year since then she has told my story to her students．“Unlike you, her dog did eat her homework. So don’t use this excuse again.” she says.

    56. In the author’s opinion，homework was         ．

      A. the dog’s favorite food       B. too difficult to be finished

      C. often eaten by students’ dogs  D. seldom eaten by students’ dogs

    57. Why didn’t the author want to go to school the next morning?

      B. Because she was afraid of her teacher’s punishment

      C. Because her step—mom explained nothing to her teacher．

      D. Because her step—mom would punish Eddy after her leaving

   58. It can be learned from the passage that      ．

      B. the teacher didn’t believe the author at all

      C. the author re—did her homework at last
