3) Not a very good student
Tom
was sixteen years old and not very good at school. He always sat on a bench
far in the back of the class and often fell asleep during lessons because of
staying up late every night. One of the teachers was Mrs Smith. One day
during class, Tom was sleeping again, and she went to his bench to wake him
up. "You can sleep during my lessons, Tom," she said to him,
"but please say ‘good night’ to me." On another day, Tom arrived at
school very late, and Mrs Smith said to him, "Why are you late,
Tom?" "I did not wake up in time," Tom replied.
"Oh," said Mrs Smith, "Do you sleep at home too?"

2)
The doorman
Tom
was the doorman of an office building in a big city. Every day thousands of
people passed by his entrance and many of them stopped to ask him to tell
them the exact time. After a few months, Tom said to himself he would go to a
store, buy a big clock and then hang it up at the office building’s entrance.
He bought a clock and hung it up. He happily thought people would stop asking
him about the time. But after that, every day a lot of people stopped, looked
at the clock and turned to Tom: "Does the clock show the correct
time?"

1)
Small pies
Margaret
was twelve years old, and her brother Tom eight. Margarete had a small dog
called Jim. Margaret loved cooking, and during the holidays, she baked two
fine small pies. She told Tom they would eat them that afternoon, one him and
her the other (That’s me). Their parents were not at home that afternoon, and
at four o'clock Margaret made tea putting the pies on the table. She asked
where the dog was, and Tom replied it was under the table. They started their
tea, but then Margaret screamed, "Tom, quickly! My pie has fallen under
the table, and Jim will eat it away!" "It's alright," replied
Tom. "I’ve put my foot on the pie."
