“For about three hours. When it’s time for lunch, we can go home,” his dad says. “Oh, I’m afraid I have to go home now, Dad,” Tommy says. “I’m not feeling well now. My belly (肚子) feels terrible.”

Tommy gets home quickly. Mum asks why he comes back so soon. Tommy still tells a lie (谎言). He points at his belly and shouts at the same time. Mum thinks he may eat something bad for breakfast. She brings the medicine and asks Tommy to take it. Tommy doesn’t want to do so. “All right. How about going to see the doctor?” Mum says.
