Why won't my teacher believe me? I was a1student. I always do my homework. I did2of my work last night, but now I don't have it. My3thinks it's because I'm busy practising basketball for the school game. I am busy, 4that's not why I don't have my homework today, I really did my homework. But my dog ate it! I know, it's an5story. Students say it all the time. But this time, it's6.

    Last night I went home late after practising basketball. So I did my homework and ate dinner7. But I was so careless that I dropped some8on my paper！It was very late, so I didn't copy it on clean paper. I just put it on the table and went to bed, 9that my dog Max loves meat. Later last night, he jumped up onto the table and10my homework. When I got up this morning, there was only a small piece of paper on the floor.
