Mark is a new junior high school student.
During the first month of the school year, Mark was 16 late for school. His English teacher, Miss Green, was not 17 with that.

Mark felt bad. “ 19 do all minutes go? Why can't I get to school on time?” 20 asked his friend Tina.
“When do you 21 ?” Tina asked.
“At 7:00,” Mark said. “ 22 when I feel drowsy(昏昏欲睡的), I get up at 7:10.”
“What do you do 23 ?” Tina asked.
“It takes me 20 minutes to have 24 and 5 minutes to get ready, and 15 minutes to walk to 25 . My first class starts at 8:00,” Mark said.
“That is 50 minutes. You still have 26 minutes. But why are you still 27 for school?” Tina asked.
“Sometimes I play with my 28 ,” Mark said. “Sometimes I sharpen(削) my pencils.”
“I often see you buy sweets in a shop near our school,” Tina said. “If you add(添加) the 29 to play with your dog, to sharpen your pencils or to buy sweets, it will take you more than 50 minutes to get to school.”
