2. Children called their teacher "the terrible Miss Dove".
3. After the bell they didn't move and talk, they waited her permission to close the books and leave the classrom in silence.
4. She left naughty pupils after lesson and maked them write on the blackboard what they must or mustn't do.
5. When Miss Dove looked at her children she often remembered her pupil that finished school many years before.
6. She allowed Randy to read his brother's letter, beause she thought it was very useful for pupils to hear a letter of such a brave man.
7. His ship had been bombed and he appeared on a raft in the ocean. When people found him, he was almost dying.
8.He wrote that he was suffered a lot on the raft, and it was almost as difficult in the ocean as it had been at Miss Dove's lessons, but the patience that he had been taught by Miss Dove saved his life.
9.Randy's face became very red because his brother asked him to kiss Miss Dove.
10. The kiss was compared with a medal. I agree with this comparison, because Miss Dove tought them how to be patient and enduring, and all this saved his life.
