Tommy hates school and always looking for excuses not to go. If he sneezes(打喷嚏) , he asks his mother to write a note saying he has a cold. If he has a headache, he asks his mother to take him to the doctor during school hours. He spends more time at home than he does at school. On the days that he goes to school, he looks for excuses to come home early. Last Friday he came home from school in the middle of the morning. His father was surprised.

    "You're home early, "he said. "Is the school closed today? "

    "No, Dad, "Tommy said. "It's open. I came home early. "

    "How did you do that? "his father asked him. "What did you say to the teacher?"

    "I told her that I had a new baby brother and that I had to come home and help you."

    "But your mother has had twins," his father said. "a boy and a girl. You've got a baby brother and a baby sister."

    "Yes, I know, Dad," Tommy said. "I'm saving up my baby sister for next week,"
