Getting a Cold

      Lucy has a cold. Her nose is blocked, she coughs a lot, and she has a sore throat. She felt fine last night, but now she is very sick. Lucy wants to go home and rest, but she thinks she can’t. She is a student and her essay is due today. She needs to proof read it and print it so the teacher gets it on time. Lucy’s teacher is very strict. He told Lucy that the essay must be handed in on time. There are eighteen students in the class, and they are all very busy writing their essays. Hopefully, they won’t catch Lucy’s cold. If the other students catch colds, they might take several days off school and miss out on study.
