    A student was going to spend his holiday in a cool mountain village. That evening he stayed at an inn (小旅馆) near the railway station (火车站). Before going to bed, he went to the boss of the inn and said, "Excuse me, sir. Will you please wake me up at a quarter to five tomorrow morning? I'll take the five o'clock train."
    "Oh, sorry, sir," the boss said in a hurry, "I'm afraid I can't. I won't be able to get up so early."
The student was disappointed (失望). When he began to return to his room, be stopped and asked, "Have you got an alarm-clock (闹钟)? Maybe it can help me."
    "Wait a minute, then." The boss said and brought out an alarm-clock. "Here you are, sir."
    "Thank you very much." The student said happily. But he found it was rusty (锈的) when he had a look at it. And it sometimes worked and sometimes didn't. He asked, "Will it ring in time?"
    "I don't know, either." said the boss, "But it doesn't matter. You just give it a good shake at a quarter to five. And it will ring on time."

Peter wondered why he didn't have many friends. The reason（原因）was he was always taking, never giving. One day Peter told Bill, "I'd like to give a party on Saturday, I'd like you to come and bring Martha, too." "Thanks, Peter. We' d be happy to come." " Perhaps you'd like to bring your violin. You and Martha sing well together. I'm sure everyone will want you to sing for us." That was how Peter began to plan his party. Next he asked another friend, Betty, to bring a cake. "You make the best cake in the world, Betty, and I like to eat your cake better than have one from the bakery." Peter invited（邀请）a few other friends to come to his party. He didn't forget（忘记）to ask something from each one of them. He even asked Jim and Mary Jackson to let him give the party at their house! They agreed（同意）. The party was a big success（成功）. However, as the guests（客人）were leaving, they said "Thank you" to Bill and Martha for the music, Betty for the cake, the Jacksons for the use of the house and to others for their hard work. To Peter they just said, "Thanks for the invitation（邀请）."

Judge the following sentences true or false according to the passage.

Miss Green was sad. She took her favourite orchid(兰花)to school to show her students. She left the flower in the classroom, but later it was gone. Three students were still in the room. (One of them must be the thief(小偷).

Two of her students, Max and Nina, decided to help her find who did it.

The first student they talked to was Maria. "I have a cold," she said." I cannot even speak."

Patrick was standing next to Maria. "Megan and Maria had already been in the room when I arrived," he said quickly. "I didn't see the orchid."

Megan, who was known to love pretty flowers best, was the next to answer their questions.

"Of course it wasn't me," she said to Max and Nina. "I have two orchids at home. I just stopped by to put a book on my desk. Maria was already in the room."

"So how can you explain that, Maria?" Nina asked.

"After I practised singing, I stopped to get my notebook, "Maria whispered(小声说). "I'll have a concert tomorrow. I didn't take the orchid."

Nina and Max had a quick conversation with Miss Green and said, "We think we know who took the orchid."
