Patrick never did his homework." Not interesting at all," he
said. He played football and basketball and computer games instead. His
teachers told him," Patrick! Do your homework, or you'll learn nothing!" And
sometimes he really didn't know anything.
But
what could he do? He didn't like doing homework at all.
Then
one day Patrick's cat was playing with a little doll. To his suprise, it wasn't a doll, but a very small
man. The man had a very small shirt with a high tall hat. He shouted,"
Save me! Don't give me back to that cat. I'll let you have a wish. I
promise that. "
① Patrick couldn't believe how lucky he was! The small man was an elf(精灵), and
he knew the answers to all Patrick's homework. So Patrick made
a wish," Do all my homework for me! Then I will do anything you want me to
do."
"OK. I'll do your homework for you."
"Thank you very much," said Patrick, feeling happier than
ever.
And
it was true that the little elf began to do Patrick's homework. But there was
one problem. Patrick always had to help the elf—as much as he could!" Help
me! Help me!" the elf would say.
"I don't know this word," the
elf said while he was reading Patrick's homework." Get me a dictionary. ② No, Patrick, you please look up the word and read it
loud by each letter." When it came to the
math, Patrick was not lucky." If X+119=455, then what's X?" the elf
shouted," An elf never needs to do math. Here, sit down beside me; you
have to teach me."
