I.“Buffaloooo!” Donnie shouted to start the game. This call was a familiar sound on the playground in my elementary school days. This was to be our last day of school for the year, but more significantly, the last day of school at Readfield Elementary.

II. A group of about seventeen of us were out by the jungle gym to prepare for the upcoming game of “buffalo”. The rules of the game were that one person was the “Buffalo hunter”, while the rest lined up in a line on one side of the field and tried to get to the other side without getting caught. The “Buffalo hunter” had to tackle or trip people as they ran across, and if he caught someone, they had to help him catch the rest of the kids. The teachers did not approve of this game because it was so rough and sometimes violent so we had to play on days with unaware teachers on recess duty.

III. “Who’s on duty today?” I asked the group. “I think it’s a sub,” replied Mike with a smile. “Great!” I said. “We can play today.” – “O.K. guys,” someone shouted. “I’m it.” We all lined up and waited for the command. “Buffaloooo!” shouted Donnie. A mass scramble was seen as we all tried to get to the other side like there was no tomorrow. When I got to the end I turned around just in time to see Mr. Bean turn the corner. I looked at Mike who also made it across.

IV. “Look who’s coming,” I said shakily. “He’s going to kill us!” Mike replied terrified. Mr. Bean was not a person who you would want to meet in a dark alley. He was very strict and the fact that he was built like the Hulk didn’t convey comforting thoughts. His huge build was the only thing I saw as he walked over slowly to our nowtrembling group.

V. ‘What are you doing?” his voice sounded. “Playing buffalo,” a weak and honest voice said. Mr. Bean looked us over carefully for a while as we waited for our fate. “How do you play?” he asked curiously. The same weak voice explained the rules to him quickly and nervously. “Okay then,” Mr. Bean explained after hearing the rules, “line up and I’ll start off as the Buffalo hunter”. A sigh of relief and

98

sense of uncertainty filled the air as the game started. As it turned out it was the best buffalo game we ever played.

1)a buffalo hunting adventure.

2)it was highly competitive indeed.

3)it involved risk and even some violence.

A44. When the narrator describes the teacher, he probably

1)laughs at Mr Bean.

2)pays Mr Bean a compliment.

3)stresses the impression Mr Bean produced.

A45. Most likely, the teacher makes up his mind to play with the kids because

1)he is just a fine teacher.

2)he is new to the school.

3)he wants play not work.
