I have been trying to get sick．I don't wear a sweater when I should，and two days ago I walked in the rain without my boots and my feet got wet．But so far nothing has happened．Debbie once told me about a girl who liked to stay overnight in the infirmary（醫(yī)務室）．She used to rub（摩擦）the end of the clinical thermometer（體溫計）until it went up to 102．Then she'd stick it in her mouth and the nurse there would think she was really sick．

This morning I tried doing that but it never went above 94 and I rubbed it for ten whole minutes．So I held the tip（未端）of the thermometer next to the light bulb（燈泡）in my desk lamp and it went up to105．I thought I'd put it in my mouth and walk downstairs like that．Then my mother would take it out and she would be surprised when she saw what a high fever I had!

The only trouble was I didn't know the thermometer would be so hot．As soon as I put it into my mouth, I burned my tongue．Something terrible! I spit the thermometer out．It fell on the floor but it didn't break．I will have to think up a better way to get mother and father back together．I can't waste my time trying to get sick．

Mrs. Green opened the door so hard that the door almost broke. Then she looked 　26 the window and saw her neighbor, an old lady, crossing the yard. “She is in my 　27 again. Those are my strawberries, not　　 28 . Maybe I should call the police.”

Her friend, Alice, was sitting at the table 　29 a cup of coffee in her hands. “You want to call the police because she picks your strawberries?” she asked.

“Of course,” Mrs. Green answered angrily. “What would you do if your neighbor walked into your garden　 30 your permission(允許) and picked your strawberries?”

“I would say, it’s better than the bees.” Alice answered.

“The bees don’t take my strawberries, but the 　31 does,” said Mrs. Green.
