Katie was exceptionally small. We were in the fifth grade, but she was as short as a third grader.
凯蒂特别小。我们上五年级,但她和三年级学生一样矮。
Although her body was small, Katie was big at heart. She had a sharp mind, too. Sometimes she got her share of teasing, but Katie knew how to handle it. All the kids who knew Katie liked her a lot.
尽管凯蒂的身体很小,但她的内心却很大。她也有敏锐的头脑。有时她也会受到嘲笑,但凯蒂知道如何应对。所有认识凯蒂的孩子都很喜欢她。
Katie loved helping others in the class, so whenever someone was stuck on the computer he always called her for help and advice. Katie loved jokes and she always had a joke that would cheer someone up whenever he was down. She was truly the most kind and generous friend anyone could ask for.

So they asked me to help them get to the bottom of this situation.
凯蒂好像一直在跑(积欠) 餐厅里的可观费用。她的父母解释说,凯蒂每天都会带一顿很棒的自制午餐,她没有理由买学校的午餐。他们以为和凯蒂坐下来就能解决问题,但没有成功。所以他们让我帮他们弄清真相。
So the next day, I asked Katie to my office. "Why are you charging(记账) lunches, Katie? What happens to your homemade lunch?" I asked. “I lose it” she responded. I leaned back in my chair and said "I don't believe you, Katie." She didn't care. "Is someone stealing your lunch, Katie?" I took a new track.
所以第二天,我约凯蒂去我的办公室。“你为什么要收费(记账) 午餐,凯蒂?你自制的午餐怎么了?我问。“我输了。”她回答。我
