I really only meant it as a joke. I wasn't trying to steal anything honestly.
My friend Matthew started bringing his new cell phone to class last week. He was walking around bragging (吹嘘) about it to everyone. He was saying, "My cell phone can download (下载) the newest 41 off the internet."Then he 42everyone by downloading a game and starting to play it. The pictures and sound were really 43 .
44 class, he would use his cell phone to watch TV. The rest of us didn't have a phone like 45 , so we had to crowd around him. I was just trying to see the screen, 46 there were so many other kids that I could not see it clearly. I was getting really jealous (嫉妒).
But then yesterday, he forgot his cell phone at the end of class. He left it right on his desk. 47 noticed it was there except me. I decided to teach him a lesson. I took his phone quietly off the desk, and put it in my own bag. My 48 was to give it back to him the next day. I 49 wanted to see his reaction (反应). Maybe he would stop being such a show-off.
But this morning he rushed into class, screaming and yelling (吼叫). He was very 50 and almost mad. He started accusing (指责) different people of 51 his phone, but I had it in my 52 the whole time. He even started fighting with another classmate 53 Matthew was sure that person had taken it. The teacher sent them to the headmaster's office. They 54 got in a lot of trouble. Now I don't know what to 55 ! If I tell him that I took the cell phone, he'll think I stole it. If I don't tell him, then I really did steal it. How did I get into such a trouble?

Feeling left out?
A reader wrote in to say that she was feeling lonely at break because her best friend wasn’t around.Here’s our advice to her—and to all kids who feel lonely sometimes. It’s hard when a best friend isn’t around—maybe because she moved to a different school or a different class.You may feel lonely at break or lunchtime.You want to have new friends.But how do you make them? Maybe it seems like everybody else already has their friends.But remember, there’s always room for more friends.
Start by looking around your classroom—think about which kids you’d like to play with at break.Look for chances to say hi to them,smile,and be friendly.Offer to share something or express your appreciation(欣赏)to them.Invite someone to play with you or say “Do you want to sit here?” in the lunchroom.When you’re at break,walk over to kids you want to play with.Act friendly,and say “Hi,can I play, too?” or just join in.
If you have trouble doing this or if you’re feeling shy, ask your teacher to help you make new friends.Teachers are usually pretty good at matching up friends.The best way to make friends is to be a friend.Be kind,be friendly,share,say nice things,offer to help—and pretty soon,you’ ll have one,or two,or even more new friends. You might still miss that special best friend.But when you see each other, you can share something you didn’t have before she left:You can introduce her to your new friends!
