現在的朱珠上英語課都認真了，以前的good friends看了都要稱奇！
今天的英語課是補課，是因為國慶節放假，導致英語課被放了，英語老師課時不夠，所以就要補課了！
由於沒有其他時間補，所以呢，朱珠和她親愛的室友們，在距上課還有十三分鍾的時候趕去教室，人都要跑虛脫了。
“你們快點啊！真的要遲到了，等一下還要爬五樓啊！”朱珠走在第一個，向後呼喚著她的室友們。
“別急，你們等等我。”室友小何跟不上了。
“朱珠走得真快！”室友小趙邊笑邊說。
在說笑中，幾人都加快了速度，還在及時趕到教室，但是四人都已氣喘籲籲了。
“你們先看五分鍾單詞，五分鍾後開始聽寫。”英語老師上課後，不疾不徐的說。
朱珠沒怎麼看單詞，在來的路上著急忙慌的看了一下，好在老師給機會，還能救！
“好了哈，開始了，把書收了。”
“No.1 campus campus campus.”
聽到第一個的時候，朱珠有點懵，寫錯了，上大學以來第一次聽寫，還真有點不習慣呢。
“No.2 literally literlly literally.”
第二個聽完，朱珠才想起來第一個怎麼寫，朱珠也為自己緊張了一下。
“No.3 suburban suburban suburban.
No.4 transition transition transition.
No.5 complex complex complex.
No.6 brand-new brand-new brand-new.
No.7 sensation sensation sensation.
No.8 lack lack lack.
No.9 stable stable stable.
No.10 adjust adjust adjust.
No.11 constant constant constant.
No.12 originally originally originally.
No.13 distinct distinct distinct.
No.14 unique unique unique.
No.15 generally generally generally.
No.16 shipment shipment shipment.
No.17 invisible invisible invisible.
No.18 indispensable indispensable indispensable.
No.19 explore explore explore.
No.20 verbally verbally verbally.
No.21 overlook overlook overlook.
No.22 essay essay essay.
No.23 tongue tongue tongue.
No.24 contradict contradict contradict.
No.25 creative creative creative.”
“好，檢查一分鍾，然後從後往前傳。”
朱珠背了一些，不是很熟，但是還是在老師念完後寫好了。
“快點交了，從後往前傳。”老師看很多人在抄，又說了一遍。
交完之後，老師重新把聽寫本發下來，你們改哈，每個單詞兩分，詞性一分，中文意思一分，總共四分。
朱珠改到一位男同學，就是一言難盡，最終得分，48分。
改完後，老師又讓寫閱讀題。“你們把快速閱讀拿出來，翻到37頁，做 unit 3 的第一部分。”
朱珠改得比較快，就迅速拿出閱讀開始寫。
Passage 1
I Have to Catch up…
By Cindy Breninger
Reading Time: 6 minutes
A) I am technology challenged. I am computer challenged. I am cell phone challenged. I am pretty much anything that was made after 1980 challenged. It is a complete wonder that I even can work e-mail and have figured aut as much as I have.Seriously.
B) I finally saw my first iPod the other day. Ok, it wasn\\u0027t my iPod as I don\\u0027t have one,but there was one in a store and a friend told me what it was. I just thought it was a little rectangle（長方形)thing with cords. I miss walksmdethat played tapes, and cell phones Ahat worecaskto figregut. I don\\u0027t play games on my cell phone and didn\\u0027t even know my cell had games until the other day. A day my kids won\\u0027t soon forget.
C) On that fatefulday (for my kids, at least), I.opened the cell phone bill and it was $100 mere thap what it should have been. I immediately called the phone company to let them know they had made a mistake and could they please correct it.
D) The lady on the phone told me there was no mistake, but since I had downloaded some games to my phone, the total was about an extra $100. I was floored-and told her I didn\\u0027t know my cell phone even had games and there was no way on carth that I would ever figure out how to download them.
E) Little miss cell phone bill lady then said, \\\"Well, Ma\\u0027am, it clearly shows on the bill that you, or someone who had access to your phone, has downloaded several games - about $100 worth.\\\"This wasn\\u0027t making to me as I don\\u0027t know how to download and I live with a 7 and 9 year olds. It never crossed my mind that they could be so high-tech that they could figure that out; it had to be wrong. I told her, \\\"No one has access to my phone besides me, except my 7 and 9 year olds, and I highly doubt a 7 and 9 year olds could figure out how to download games. \\\"Uh-huh. I knew what was up and I was going to let her know. The mistake had to be on their end, it just had to.
