问题补充：
I was in my third year of teaching writing at Ralph High School in New York, when one of my students, 15-year-old Mikey, gave me a note from his mother. It explained his absence from class the day before:
Dear Mr. McCort, Mikeys grandmother, who is eighty years of age, fell down the stairs from too much coffee and I kept Mikey at home to take care of her and his baby sister so I could go to my job. Please excuse Mikey and hell do his best in the future. P.S. His grandmother is OK.
I had seen Mikey writing the note at his desk. l said nothing. Most parental-excuse notes I received were penned by my students. The writers of those notes didn realize that honest excuse notes were usually boring: Peter was late because the alarm clock didn go off.
The students always said it was hard putting 200 words together on any subject, but when they produced excuse notes, they were excellent. So I decided to give the first class to study the art of the excuse note.
“Today Id like you to write An Excuse Note from Adam to God or An Excuse Note from Eve to God. Heads went down. Pens raced across paper. They had to be asked to go to lunch by their friends.[来源:学|科|网Z
The next day everyone had excuse notes. Heated discussions followed. But suddenly I saw the headmaster at the door. He entered the classroom and walked up and down, looking at papers, and then said. Id like you to see me in my office. My heart sank,
When I stepped into his office, he came to shake my hand and said, I just want to tell you that lesson, that task, was great. Those kids were writing on the college level. Thank you.

【小题2】判断推理题。根据文中第三段描述I had seen Mikey writing the note at his desk. l said nothing. Most parental-excuse notes I received were penned by my students.我看到Mikey自己写请假条。我收到的许多父母写的请假条其实都是学生自己写的。从而判断Mikey的请假条内容是假的，他并不是照顾奶奶，而是做他自己喜欢的事情去了，故选A。
【小题3】判断推理题。根据文中第三段The writers of those notes didn realize that honest excuse notes were usually boring这些写假条的学生都没意识到真实的假条往往很无趣，而when they produced excuse notes, they were excellent他们编的假条很精彩，从而判断C正确。
【小题4】判断推理题。根据文中描述The students always said it was hard putting 200 words together on any subject, but when they produced excuse notes, they were excellent.学生们总说写200字的作文很难，但当他们编假条时都写得很好，从而判断B正确。
