When Maggie meets Zoe outside the classroom, she gives Zoe a card with a smile, “What about coming to my pool party this Saturday at two o’clock?” Maggie keeps talking but Zoe isn’t listening. Maggie is one of her best friends. She can’t miss (错过) her party. But Zoe is worried because she doesn’t want the classmates to find out she can’t swim.
“I will be busy this Saturday,” Zoe says, seeing the disappointment on Maggie’s face. “Maybe I can come for a while, but I don’t have time to swim.”
That afternoon, Zoe tries not to look at Maggie because she isn’t ready to answer questions about her plans on Saturday. When she comes back home, she begs (央求) her parents to make other plans so she needn’t go to Maggie’s party.
“Zoe, this is silly,” her mother says. “Maggie is your friend. She won’t care that you can’t swim.” Her father also tells her to be honest (坦诚的).
On Saturday, Zoe’s dad drives her to the party on time. When she gets out of the car, Maggie runs up to her, “Great! Without you, the party won’t be interesting.”
Zoe is still nervous (紧张的), but she thinks she should be honest. “Maggie, I have to tell you something. I don’t have other plans. I’m just afraid to tell you that I can’t swim.”
Maggie laughs, “Never mind! Now we have the referee (裁判). No one wants to get out of the pool to do that.” Zoe enjoys the party that day.
