DAILY Business English VOCABULARY builder

The most confusing word in the English language.

Lucas goes to school every day of the week. He has many subjects to go to each school day: English, art, science, mathematics, gym, and history. His mother packs a big backpack full of books and lunch for Lucas.

His first class is English, and he likes that teacher very much. His English teacher says that he is a good pupil, which Lucas knows means that she thinks he is a good student.

His next class is art. He draws on paper with crayons and pencils and sometimes uses a ruler. Lucas likes art. It is his favorite class.

His third class is science. This class is very hard for Lucas to figure out, but he gets to work with his classmates a lot, which he likes to do. His friend, Kyle, works with Lucas in science class, and they have fun.

Then Lucas gets his break for lunch. He sits with Kyle while he eats. The principal, or the headmaster as some call him, likes to walk around and talk to students during lunch to check that they are all behaving.

The next class is mathematics, which most of the students just call math. Kyle has trouble getting a good grade in mathematics, but the teacher is very nice and helpful.

His fourth class is gym. It is just exercising.

History is his last class of the day. Lucas has a hard time staying awake. Many lessons are boring, and he is very tired after doing gym.

Which classes were your favorite? :)

“什么？” 王后对魔镜大喊，
“谁比我更美？” 
“白雪公主。” 魔镜说。
"What?" the queen shouted at her mirror.
"Who is more beautiful than I am?"
"Snow White," the mirror said.

王后非常生气。
“大家都说白雪公主很美！
说她很善良，很完美！
我可不信！” 
The queen was very angry.
"Everyone says Snow White is so pretty!
She's so nice, so perfect!
I don't believe it!"

那天晚上，王后在村庄里和猎人见面。
猎人带着一把斧子。
王后在他耳边说了几句悄悄话。
然后给了他一些金币。
That night the queen met a hunter in the village.
He carried an ax.
