啊，今天起床可真困难，因为在假期里我每天都睡懒觉，而今天是假期后的第一天上课。我讨厌星期天，因为第二天，也就是星期一就要上学了。一切都像以往一样无聊，每天都做同样的事：数学课、音乐课、写作课，然后吃午餐，科学课。一个简短的课间过后就是历史课，现在我们上最后一节课——西班牙语课。我很喜欢西班牙语，因为它很简单，有时还很好玩。

　　比如今天的课就很特殊，也很有趣。课开始了。“大家好。”我们的西班牙语老师赛柴兹小姐说。她手中拿着一些写字板和一把铅笔。我们刚要去拿文件夹，赛西兹小姐说：“等等，你们只需要这些写字板和铅笔，我们也不会在这个教室上课……”我们没等赛西兹小姐说完，就七嘴八舌地说：“我们不在教室上课？那今天要做什么呀？”我们对今天的课程感到好奇。

　　“我们要探索学校并把所有数据用西班牙语记录下来。”赛西兹小姐继续道。“一个探索活动？都用西班牙语？”我们还不相信。每人抽一个数字来决定和谁一组。我是四号，和瑞亚还有格雷西一组。我们拿起写字板，已经迫不及待地想要去探索整个学校的里里外外了！我们刚刚才学了数字的西班牙语，所以今天我们要找到学校里公用器材的数量。

　　但是这次探索活动也不简单。学校那么大，我们该怎样做？瑞亚有着满脑子奇怪的想法，她的鬼点子也数不胜数。“咱们先去餐厅吧。”瑞亚建议道。“什么？”我和格雷西搞不懂瑞亚的想法，但我们还是跟着去了。在那里，我看见了好多课外活动的老师，他们正在清理餐厅。“这里有几张桌子呀？”瑞亚装作在问我们。“这儿前排有四张桌子，后排有八张。”詹姆斯回答道。“那有几台饮水机呀？”“两台。”布兰登回答道。“这里有几个厕所？”“四个，嘿，等等，不是你们的工作吗？我可不想帮你们。”布兰登说。所以我们又自己去记录，然后又和其他组交换答案。

　　最后，我们组得了第一名。看来学习一种语言也挺有趣的。

　　A weird Spanish class

　　Ah, it was so hard for me to get up this morning, because I had a habit of getting up late and today was the first day of school after February vacation. I hate Sunday, because the next day will be school day, Monday。

　　Everything was boring like usual, and we did the same thing every week: math class, music, writing, then having lunch, science. After a short recess, there was social studies. And now we came to the last class of the day—Spanish class. I liked Spanish very much because it was very easy and it was fun sometimes. For example the class today was very special and it was fun。

　　The class began. “Hola, boys and girls!” Ms. Sanchez, our Spanish teacher said. She was holding some boards and a hand full of pencils. When we were just about to get our binders, Ms. Sanchez stopped us. “Wait, you guys, today you only need to take these pencils and boards with you, and we are not having the class at in this classroom…” We cut Ms. Sanchez off in the middle of her talking. “We’re not having the class at the classroom? What are we goanna do today?” We were so anxious and curious about today’s work。

　　“We are going to explore the school and write down our discoveries all in Spanish,” Ms. Sanchez continued。

　　“A discovery? All in Spanish?” We didn’t believe it. We got to choose a number to see who your partners were. I was number four and I was in the group with Grace and Rhea. We got our boards and were ready to explore up and down, in and out the school! We had just learned about numbers in Spanish so today we were going to check out the numbers of school-used-tools in Chenery。

　　But the discovery was not so easy. The school was so big, and what should we do? Rhea was the one who had many thoughts. She was always full of wicked ideas. “Let’s go to the cafeteria first,” Rhea suggested. “What?” Grace and I didn’t understand, but we still followed her. There, I saw many teachers from ChenEx, they were cleaning the cafeteria。

　　“So, how many desks are there?” Rhea pretended to ask us. “There are eight in the back and four in the front,” James answered. “Then how many water fountains are there?” “Two,” Brandon answered. “How many restrooms are there?” “Four, wait, it’s for you guys, and I’m not doing it,” Brandon said. So we discovered some by ourselves and we traded answers with other groups。

　　We got the first place. Learning language was pretty fun!
