056. Returning Library Books

Meimei likes reading books. She often goes and borrows books from the school

library. Though she likes reading, she doesn’t take care of her books. She throws

them everywhere, on the table, on the ground, even under her bed. Her

roommates often remind her of this. But she turns defiant¹ of them. Not until

yesterday did her bad habit bring her a great trouble. It was the deadline for two

books. She looked everywhere but failed to find them. When her roommates came

back and learned² that, they began to help her look for the books in the room.

Twenty minutes past without any result. Meimei cried helplessly³. It was four thirty

and Meimei had to go to the library, for it closed at five. As soon as she told the

story to the librarian⁴ and asked for an extra day with tears, the librarian looked at

her with surprise and said，“what a careless girl! You returned them yesterday.

Don’t you remember? ”
