day examining the classes. The headmaster had told us a few days __1 that he was
coming. I think the headmaster was very 2 about it, for every day, he came to
all the classes, 3 the teachers over and over again what they must do and
examined the boys himself to see __4_ they were ready for the inspector. He told
us in our class that we were all fools and would be sure to make him lose face

done better if we had not been so afraid. I think I should like to be 15 when I
grow up, because everyone should be afraid of me.
