Step 1 The introduction to the text

  Have you ever been late for class because of oversleeping?Have you ever left your schoolbag at home? Both of Tina’s answers are “yes”. Tina once had a terrible morning. First, she got up late. Then she missed the bus. She had to run to school in a hurry. She was so careless that she left her schoolbag at home. Unluckily, her keys were in the schoolbag, so she couldn’t fetch the schoolbag from the house. What’s worse, the class had begun when she went into the classroom. She had no homework and no textbook in class. From Tina’s story, we can learn that we should get up early or on time every day.
