I wonder whether Mike is getting annoyed with me. I had promised to help him 【小题1】 his maths in the library this afternoon. 【小题2】just as I was about to start out, Uncle John, 【小题3】 had just e back from abroad, came to see me. John has always been a good friend as well 【小题4】
a good uncle. He used to e to see me when I was young, but I had not seen him for ages. 【小题5】 had a good chat and had a very nice time together. I tried to call Mike and tell him about the delay, but wasn’t able【小题6】reach him since his mobile phone was powered off. When I got to the library, he was nowhere to be seen.

I’d rather tell him the truth than make 【小题8】 excuse.with
