One day James came up to Dick and said, “Look what I’ve found in Mr. Trotter’s rubbish bin.” It was a piece of paper. On it were some test questions for history. “That’s our history paper. I am sure of it,” said James. “It’s Mr. Trotter’s handwriting.” “Yes, I think so,” said Dick. “I’ll sell the paper for $1.00 to each of our classmates,” said James. So in the next three days he went round the class and sold the “test paper” to his classmates. James felt happy because he got $40.00. All the students were sure that these questions would be in the test paper. The questions were quite difficult so they had to work hard on them.
The day for the exam came. Mr. Trotter walked into the classroom. “History test,” he said and then he gave out the test paper. Oh dear! It was different from the paper that James had found. None of the questions were the same. None of the students did well. James had to give all the money back to his classmates. Ever since he has never looked in teacher’s rubbish bins again.
