12．One day in the eighth grade，I was taking a Math Test on basic trigonometry （三学）．Now for a middle school student，there was nothing basic at all about it．So I had studied for about two hours the night before．After reviewing it for some time，I had started to understand it，so then I closed the book and ______．However，it was not until midnight that I fell asleep．The next day，when I got the test，it might as well have been written in Serbian （which I don't know how to read）．I tried my best to work out the hard problems but the members I came up with were strange．I sat back on my chair and looked for any possible answers，but I could not remember anything or think correctly．I started thinking about my dad coming home from work to find that I failed the test…
"How cold you have failed the test？I am certain that nobody else in the whole class got as bad a grade as you did!"
Naturally I didn't want that to happen．My dad was also really busy at work at present，so I was afraid that this might make him mad．When felling hopeless，I noticed that my table partner was writing fast on his test．I could see smoke rising up from how fast he was writing．I was attracted to look over at his test，but then the many bad results I had heard about cheating （作弊） came into my mind．I reasoned that if I started cheating now，it would be hard t give up that habit during high school．In the end，I decided not to copy his answer，and got a b on that test．Even though my dad have me hard time bout it，it would have been a lot worse if he fond out that I had given in and cheated．
