Question

The kids in Room 22 used to be afraid of Nick Nelly. Sometimes he was really rude. He pushed kids in line and said, "Get out of the way and let me in front."

One day, a new kid called Jake came to Room 22. He was short and skinny. He had red hair and freckles. When the teacher wasn't looking, Nick made faces at Jake and some kids laughed. Jake was in front of Nick in the line. Again Nick pushed Jake in line and said "Let me in front." But Jake just smiled at Nick and said no. Nick went red and was furious. Kids never said no to him. But he couldn't do anything because the teacher was looking.

When Jake went to the classroom, Nick snatched（抢夺）his pencil. But Jake just smiled and said "You can have it. This is my sister's. She likes pink but I don't." The kids laughed. But Nick didn't. He went red again!

At lunchtime, Jake went to play soccer. Jake could play soccer well. He could stop every ball. Jake kicked the ball to Nick and asked him to stop the ball, but Nick failed and slid over in the mud. The kids laughed but Jake didn't. Instead, he told Nick how to stop the ball very patiently. From then on, Jake showed Nick all he knew about soccer. He showed him how to hit the ball with his head and how to stop a fast ball.

After that, Nick and Jake were friends. Now, no one is afraid of Nick. Because Jake showed Nick how to be a friend.
