Tom woke up on Monday morning, he felt 1. He always felt sick on Monday morning. He had to go to school for five 2 every week! He almost wished there were no weekends. 3 was even more difficult for him to go back to school!

    He 4 in bed and wondered what excuse he could make this time. He looked at his body, but could find 5 wrong. A little headache? 6. He had used that excuse many times. Then he realized that one of his teeth was loose(松动). Good! He was just going to start groaning（呻吟）7 he thought that Aunt Polly would pull the tooth out. That would 8! He looked for something else. Suddenly he remembered what the doctor had said about a certain problem with his toes（脚趾）. He pulled his right foot out and looked at it. 9 of the toes was really hurting. Tom began to groan.

    "What is 10 with you?" Aunt Polly asked.

    "My toe hurts."

    The old lady fell into the chair, 11 a little, "Tom, you frighten me. Now shut up at once and get out of 12."

    Tom felt like a thief being caught. "Well, it seems all right. It hurts so much 13 I forgot my teeth. One of them loses and it hurts 14."

    "No problem," answered Aunt Polly. "I can pull it out."

    "Please, Auntie! Don't pull it out. It has15 hurting. Please!"

    "No way! Well, you will have your tooth out or you will go to school."
