When I was in the third grade, I made a really big mistake. My teacher assigned a spelling test, but I decided I would play video games all night instead of studying. That wasn't the biggest mistake I made, though. What I did after that was worse! When my teacher, Miss Crabtree, told us to clear our desks for the test, I took my word list and put it on top of my books inside my desk where I could see it. Miss Crabtree started calling out the words and I copied each of them from my word list. Suddenly, Miss Crabtree noticed what I was doing. She walked over to my desk and took my word list from me. She told me she wanted to see me after class. I knew I was in trouble then! I left class quickly that day before Miss Crabtree could talk to me about it. By the time I got home, I had forgotten all about the spelling test. I was watching television when the telephone rang. It was Miss Crabtree! She told my mother what happened in class. Boy was she mad! She took away my video games and wouldn’t let me go anywhere or do anything fun for a whole month. Plus, I had to study and retake the spelling test. So, I guess what they say really is true - cheaters never win!

The main idea of this story is—

A. Miss Crabtree is a really good teacherB. I learned that cheating on a test is a horrible mistake C. My mother gets mad when I get in trouble at schoolD. I like to play video games


Answer:


B. I learned that cheating on a test is a

One Halloween I dressed up as a clown. My mother bought me a big red nose made out of foam to wear, but I didn't like it. I decided to sneak into her makeup and use her red lipstick instead. I colored my whole nose red and went trick-or-treating. When I got home later that night, I tried to rub the lipstick off, but all I did was make my nose pink! I couldn't get all of the lipstick off. I didn't want my mother to know what I had done, so I went to bed, hoping the lipstick would wear off by morning. It didn't. When my mother woke me up for school, the first thing she saw was my bright pink nose. I thought I was in trouble for sure, but she just laughed and told me to use her cold cream to get it all off. I bet I never do that again, though!
