Diary of a Wimpy Kid
Trick 1: Cheese Touch
When I got to school today, everybody was acting strangely around me, and at first I didn't know what was up. Then I remembered: I still had the Cheese Touch from last year. I got the Cheese Touch in the last week of school, and over the summer I forgot about it.
The problem with the Cheese Touch is that you'll have it until you can pass it on to someone else by touching them. But nobody would even like to get close to me and talk to me. Every time they saw me, they screamed "Ah ~ Greg Heffley is coming!" I knew the Cheese Touch would stick (粘) with me all through the school year. Luckily, a new kid named Jeremy Pindle was in the classroom, so I passed the Cheese Touch to him.
Trick 2: The First Letter
My first class was math, and the teacher put me right next to Alex Aruda, the cleverest kid in the whole class. If the kids' last names start with the first few letters of the alphabet (字母表), the teacher will call them most, and that's why they end up being the cleverest.
I can only think of one kid. He broke the last-name rule, and that's Peter Uteger. Peter was the cleverest kid in the class all the way up until the fifth grade. When we kept saying his first letter out loud, it sounded funny. This gave Peter a difficult time. These days, Peter doesn't put up his hand at all, and he's more like a C student. I feel a little bad about the whole P.U. thing and what happened to Peter.
