Judy had very bad luck yesterday. In the morning, she came to school late, because her alarm clock didn’t go off. Usually she goes to school at 7:20 am. But yesterday, it was already 8:00 am when she got up. The teacher was angry(生氣的) and asked her to stay in the classroom after school. At 5:00 pm, it was time for students to go home. But Judy couldn’t. She stayed until(直到) 5:30 pm. When she just went out of the classroom, it began to rain. She didn’t have an umbrella. On her way home, she fell off(摔下) her bicycle. When she got home, she was wet all through.

Some people remember the things by writing notes to themselves．Then they leave the notes in obvious（明顯）places，such as on the table or on the floor in the middle of the living room．I don’t think I like to write notes to myself．Most of the time I lose them or forget to look at them until it’s too late．I prefer to use an alarm clock f鬧鐘）to tell me what I should do．I have ten alarm clocks in my house．They could tell me about things．For example，if I have to make a telephone call at a certain time，I’ll set an alarm clock to go off a few minutes early and put the clock by the telephone．Or if I want to watch a certain television program，I’ll set an alarm clock at the right time and put the clock on top of the TV set．I can remember almost anything if I use my clocks．However，sometimes an alarm clock goes off and I don’t know what it means．I always remember setting it，but not why I set it．If the clock is by the telephone, I know I may have set it to tell me to call someone，but I can’t be sure．I might have set it to tell

myself that somebody was to call me at a certain time．
