Students in Class Five were excited about the talent show. Three students in the class wanted to perform. Meghan would show everyone her new dance. Abby wanted to play the piano and Tim would tell jokes.
The day of the talent show arrived. The math teacher Miss Turnbow surprised everyone by doing magic tricks (魔术).No one knew she was such a good magician. Miss Turnbow took a ring out of someone's ear. She turned a T-shirt into a beautiful flower and she took a live bird out of a hat.
The next person to perform was Meghan. Meghan showed everyone her talent by dancing a waltz (华尔兹).She didn't do well, but the students liked it.
Abby played Here Comes Santa Claus on the piano. The students thought playing a Christmas song in the middle of May was strange (奇怪的),but Abby played the piano very well.
It was Tim's turn. Tim tried telling jokes, but no one laughed. He tried and tried, but his jokes weren't funny. When he started to leave, he tripped (绊倒) over a chair. Everyone laughed so hard that Tim pretended to fall (假装跌倒) again.
