Admitting a Fault | 认错

点击查看中英对照

John is not a "good" student. He often sleeps in class. Today, he fell asleep again.

"John!" the teacher says angrily.

"What? What's wrong?" John is awakened.

"Why are you making a face? This is a classroom. Look! Everyone is laughing," the teacher says.

"No one is laughing," another student whispers.

"No, it wasn't me. I wasn't making a face. I was sleeping," John says, feeling upset.

"Hmm. Not bad. You admitted your fault. You're still a good boy," the teacher says, satisfied.
