Our school building was very old. It was repaired from time to time so that it could look better. However, the toilets 1the same.
One day the teachers decided that the toilets needed a makeover (翻新). 2 it would be expensive. They came up with a great idea—making it a school—wide3for students. Each class would pick three students. These students would be grouped according to the grade and they would. 4 and paint the toilet on each floor. I was chosen to join the fourth grade team.
At the beginning. there were disagreements (分歧) among our group members. Each person had an idea of 5 to do. Someone wanted to make the wall 6 the seaside. Someone else wanted to paint it with stars. Another person wanted to paint it with cartoon characters. We got so 7that we stopped talking to each other. It seemed we were8 going to get it done.
Finally, one member thought of a(n)9idea. Each cubicle (小隔间) would have a different theme so that10 thought would be given up. And the 11of the toilet would be painted in rainbow colours. Everybody thought the12 was good. Finally, we managed to start painting the toilet.
When we finished, we were all happy. Everyone said the toilet on our floor looked amazing. What was even13was that our teachers praised us for how we had14the disagreements among us and come up with a whole new idea. We ourseclves were quite happy with our work, too. Most15we had learnt the meaning of teamwork.
