您正在看的初中三年级是:It must belong to Carla。 The notebook must be Ming’s. It was on her desk.

　　The homework can’t be Carol’s. She wasn’t at school today.

　　The soccer ball might be John’s or Tony’s. They both play soccer, don’t they?

　　The French book must be Li Ying’s. She’s the only one who’s studying French.

　　I can’t find my backpack. It might be still at school.

　　The photo must be Lu’s. Those are his parents.

　　The red bicycle can’t be Hu’s. She has a blue bicycle.

　　This ticket might be my aunt’s or uncle’s. They’re both going to the concert.

　　3a Reading, numbering and circling

　　On page 36 you see a box. In it is a thank-you message from Linda to Anna. Read it, number the 5 parts and circle the words you don’t know.

　　Subject: Thanks! From: Linda

　　_④_ If you have any idea where it might be, please call me.

　　_②_ I think I dropped it during the concert so it might still be in the symphony hall.

　　_⑤_ I tried to call you but your mom said you were still at your optometrist appointment ( I hope you new glasses look nice!).

　　_③_ I really need it because I have a math test on algebra tomorrow. It’s crucial that I study for it because it counts 30% to the final exam.

　　_①_ I’m really anxious, because I can’t find my backpack.

　　Thanks,

　　Linda

　　B: Well, it could be a boy. The earrings might be a present for his mother.

　　A: Here’s a school T-shirt. The owner must be a student.
