Our lessons began at 9 o'clock. but we came to the school yard earlier (раньше). my sister said "good morning! " to everybody in the yard. when we came into the classroom, the teacher said: "jack is ill. so your sister may sit at his desk." my sister did not talk. she looked and looked. she looked at the teacher, she looked at the schoolboys and schoolgirls. she looked at the blackboard and at the pictures on the wall. the children opened their bags and took out their pencils and notebooks. my sister opened her bag too. she took out her pencil and her notebook. then the teacher called all the children's names. the children said: "present" (здесь). but she did not call my sister's name, because she was not a pupil. then my naughty little sister stood up and said: "i want a present (подарок), too." everybody laughed. then the teacher gave her some plasticine ['plaestisi: n] (пластилин). my little sister made a red flower, and the teacher said it was very nice. перевод
