Nicole's Day at School


Nicole tells her mother Susan about her successful presentation at school. Her brother Ted overhears and interrupts the conversation.

Susan: How was your day at school today, Nicole? 

Nicole: It was great, Mom. I gave a presentation on Hillary Clinton in government class. 

Afterwards, my teacher paid me a compliment. 

Susan: What did she say? 

Nicole: She said my presentation was head and shoulders above the others. 

Susan: Way to go! 

Nicole: She also said I should go into politics, just like Hillary. 

Ted: You're so gung ho about school. It drives me crazy. 

Nicole: Ted, don't butt in! You're just jealous. 

Ted: Right. You hit the nail on the head. I'm green with envy. 

Nicole: Would you just shut up? You're on thin ice with me right now. 

Ted: Oh no! Look at me. I'm shaking in my shoes!
