Four girls were at the same school. They were good friends, so they often studied and played
together. They went to school every day by taxi.
One day one of the girls said, "There is a test this morning. Let's go to school late. Then we won't
have to take the test." "What can we tell the teacher?" One of the girls said. "He'll be angry. We'll need
a good excuse."
The girls thought for several moments, then one of them said, "Let's tell him that our taxi had a flat
tire (爆胎)." "That's a good idea," the other girls said. "We'll tell him that."
They arrived at school an hour later. The test was finished.
"Why are you late?" the teacher asked. "You miss the test." "Our taxi had a flat tire," one of the girls
said.
The teacher thought for a moment, then he said, "Sit down, one of you in each corner of the room."
