I didn't understand what that meant 8 I was sent into the classroom to 9 on a cold bench, face to face with the strange class teacher…I cursed (咒骂) silently though, at the 10 the minute hand of the grand clock took in 11 a minute.

I 13 staring at those funny little creatures the whole day, trying to 14 them as they swam about, with the 15 that I received a knock on the head 16 the rough corner of the tank. I put my hand into the water and tried to 17 fishes. When I took back my hands I found , to my great 18 , that all the fish turned upside down.
