The Billionaire CEO Wants to Marry Me Every Day-Chapter 425: A Promising Student
As soon as those words came out, the students below became nervous.
This reading comprehension has a total of two paragraphs. It’s not very long, each paragraph has over two hundred words, but the words are difficult and long. There are several words they have just learned the meaning of, and Teacher Sutton only read through it twice; they have completely forgotten how to pronounce them.
Teacher Sutton wiggled the fingers on his right hand, smiling cunningly like a fox and asked, "Anyone want to volunteer?"
The students below lowered their heads.
They didn’t want to read aloud and make a fool of themselves in front of unfamiliar classmates.
Just then, a fair hand was raised, adorned with a sparkling Bulgari bracelet, eye-catching.
Everyone looked over, Summer Monroe looked over too.
It was Willow Grant.
Summer Monroe raised her brows with an intrigued expression.
Teacher Sutton was pleased that someone volunteered and quickly said, "Come, come, what’s your name?"
Willow Grant softly said, "Willow Grant."
Teacher Sutton didn’t hold back with his praise and said, "So it’s Willow Grant... Professor Osborne mentioned you to me. You’re a very promising student."
"Thank you, teacher." Willow Grant’s expression remained calm, but inside she was quite proud.
"Alright, class is almost over, I won’t say more nonsense, go ahead, read the first paragraph."
"Okay, teacher." Willow Grant picked up her textbook.
She had intentionally spent the whole summer previewing the course, and this reading was marked with a star, she had read it multiple times already, reading smoothly wouldn’t be a problem.
Willow Grant confidently began: "Large corporations like Microsoft..."
Willow Grant finished the paragraph with only a brief pause in one place, generally speaking, it was quite smooth.
Teacher Sutton listened and nodded with satisfaction: "Very good, very smooth. Did you preview this beforehand?"
Willow Grant’s fingers stiffened, then she clenched her hand and shook her head, "No. I just often read English news regularly, so I’m familiar with some of the words."
Teacher Sutton was even more pleased, stroking his beard as he said, "Reading like that without preparation shows great talent. Not just talent, but diligence too. Other students can follow Willow Grant’s example, read more English magazines and news regularly, and accumulate vocabulary. With English, vocabulary is even more important than grammar. Especially since I’ve heard that you’ll be taking exams directly for Britton University, being able to understand classes over there is the most important thing."
The students below nodded repeatedly, their eyes filled with admiration when they looked at Willow Grant.
Willow Grant felt the admiring or envious glances from those around her, and her heart was warm, as if she were walking on air.
Since she was young, she had been competitive, precisely because she greatly enjoyed the feeling of being admired and envied.
If she could marry Damian Knight... how many people’s dreams would she shatter?
"Willow Grant?"
Teacher Sutton’s voice pulled Willow Grant back from her thoughts, she looked over in surprise, only to hear Teacher Sutton asking with a puzzled face, "Didn’t you hear me? I just said you could sit down."
Willow Grant’s face warmed up and she quickly sat down.
Fortunately, no one paid attention to this small episode, they just assumed she had been lost in thought.
Willow Grant breathed a small sigh of relief, only to hear Teacher Sutton say, "Okay, Willow Grant has finished reading the first paragraph, and she did it very well. Is there anyone else who wants to volunteer and thinks they can surpass her?"
Most of the students in the class were reserved, and when Teacher Sutton said this, everyone lowered their heads even further.
Teacher Sutton scanned the class, and seeing no one raise their hand, he simply picked up the roll call and said, "Since no one wants to volunteer, I’ll call names."
