　　My legs were too short to reach the floor from up there on the big chair．I was so afraid, they started to tremble(颤抖)．It was the first time I had been to the principal’s office(校长办公室)．And I knew what she was going to ask me．Why had I been running on the concrete(水泥)in the playground?Why hadn’t I followed the school rules?

　　The principal’s secretary was sitting at her desk．She kept asking me questions like whether I liked schoo1 and what grade I was in．I didn’t want to talk to her，so I just gave one－word answer．Then she asked what my dad did．But I didn’t really know what he did, so I made something up．“He plays basketball for the Boston Celtics(波士顿凯尔特人队)，”I said．The secretary just looked at me and said nothing more．Just then, the door to the principal’s office opened．There she was，the woman that everyone called“the witch(女巫)”．

　　Was she really that bad?I was surprised to see her office were bright yellow, and there were some nice pictures on the desk．She told me about the pictures．I was surprised that she had a family and a kid, just like me．Then she asked how my family was．It turns out she had known me since I was only a few weeks old．I was happy to hear that．If she knew my mum, then I wouldn’t get in much trouble．She cleaned the cut on my knee and told me to be more careful．She also told me about the rules of the playground．But she didn’t punish or shout at me．And I forgot all the bad things I had heard about“the witch”．I had met her, an I knew she was nice．
