During her struggle, Alice wakes up and r1. it was all just a dream. The passages b2. describes the first scene of the story. Let’s see how Alice falls into the rabbit hole.

She often saw rabbits in the garden, but this rabbit was different. He had large, pink ears, like most rabbits, but unlike most rabbits, he was wearing a blue coat and had a watch in his hand. He was looking at his watch and saying, ＂Oh, dear! Oh, dear! I shall be too late!＂

＂I’ll catch him at the fence,＂ thought Alice.

But, when the rabbit came to the fence, he went down a rabbit hole.

Alice followed him. She was inside a dark hole and she was falling. E3. the hole was very deep or she was falling very slowly. She saw lots of things on her way down. There were cupboards on the sides of the hole, and maps and pictures. She fell and fell such a long way! She began to think she was going to fall all the way to Australia! But, after a very long time, her fall s4. came to an end.

Alice found herself s5. on dry leaves and she wasn’t hurt at all. She stood up quickly. She could see the white rabbit in the d6.. He was still hurrying and looking at his watch.

＂I mustn’t lost him now,＂ thought Alice. She ran after him. As he turned a corner, she heard him say, ＂Oh, dear! Oh, dear! I’m so late!＂

Alice was close behind him, but when she turned the corner, the white rabbit was not there anymore. Alice looked around. She was in a long, dark, empty hall, but some lamps on the ceiling（天花板）gave it light. There were doors all around the hall. Did the rabbit go out of one of the doors?

We would feel more comfortable and that is good for s5.. If we can’t do that, we should be allowed to design our own uniforms. That would be a good way to keep both teachers and students h6..
