Lesson 354

normally = nearly always = in general / generally

task = homework for a pupil / work for an employee

The street is empty, I can’t see any cars at all.
= I can see not a single car in the street.

5) John was not a very good pupil

John was ten years old. He was not a very good pupil and did not like doing homework because he preferred doing other things in his free time. Often he did not do any homework at all, and when he did, there were always many mistakes. One day, however, his math teacher saw that John had solved all the tasks correctly. Being very satisfied and quite surprised, he called John to his desk and said to him, "You did all your homework right this time, John. What happened? Did your father help you?" Normally, John's father did help him with his homework, but the night before, he had not been able to because he had to stay in the office. So John replied, "No, he didn’t because he was busy last night, so I had to do it all myself."
