STEP 1: LISTEN TO THE AUDIO

Today was an awful day. Everything went wrong. In the morning, I missed the bus. I had to wake up my older brother to drive me to school. I was late. On the way to the classroom, I tripped and broke my eyeglasses. I taped my broken glasses and wore them for the rest of the day. Then the computer in the library crashed and I had to redo my essay. After lunch, we had a surprise quiz. I don't think I did well on it. It was raining really hard after school, so I got soaked on the way to the bus. On the way home, our neighbor's dog escaped his yard and started chasing me. I jumped over our fence and tore my pants. What a terrible day. I really hope tomorrow is better.

STEP 2: STUDY VOCABULARY
