Franklin woke up at 7:00 a.m. He had been chatting with a friend on the computer until nearly midnight the previous night so he was feeling quite tried but also rather nervous because this was the day of an important English Exam at school. Franklin had been studying very hard for this exam for the previous two weeks so he thought he had a good chance of passing it.
While Franklin was travelling to school on the bus, he remembered that he had forgotten to take his wallet with him so he didn't have any money to buy lunch. Just after this, his friend Jimmy got on the bus.
'can I borrow some money, Jimmy? asked Franklin.
'sure, no problem ; replied Jimmy. 'Here you go'.
The two boys did the English exam. While they were having lunch, Franklin asked Jimmy if he thought the exam had been difficult. Franklin smiled and picked up the slice of chocolate cake that he was eating.
'it was so easy! It was a piece of cake said Jimmy smiling.
