The teacher and the students had prepared for every possible scenario to ensure the lesson would go smoothly.
Half an hour passed without incident, and with only 15 minutes left, the teacher asked the final question:
- Now, I’ll write a few English words on the board, and I’d like you to translate them into Vietnamese.
As the teacher was writing, the chalk slipped from her hand. She bent down to pick it up and continued writing the rest of the words.
- Now, who can translate these words?
Tí immediately raised his hand. The teacher looked around, and seeing no one else with their hand up, she reluctantly called on Tí.
Confidently, Tí spoke up:

- There are 4 lightbulbs, teacher!
The teacher shook her head, pulled out a lightbulb from her bag, and said:
- You're mistaken, try again next time!
When the student came back for the retake, things didn’t go any better. He was again unable to answer any questions.
The teacher, still trying to be kind, asked:
- How many lightbulbs are in this room?
This time, the student was very sure of himself and quickly replied:
- There are 5 lightbulbs, teacher!
The teacher shook her head again:
- You’re wrong again. Today, I didn't bring any extra bulbs, so there are only 4.
Without missing a beat, the student replied:

19. Pass or Fail
During an advanced level exam, the teacher tells the students:
- Today's essay topic is: 'Describe or write about your most exceptional talent that you believe is the best.'
The students start writing. After five minutes, Teo submits his paper with the content: 'I have the ability to predict the future. I predict that I will fail this exam.'
The teacher reads Teo's paper and asks:
- Teo, is this all you've written?
- Yes, ma'am!
- Teo nods.
The next morning, the teacher goes to the principal’s office and asks:
- Have you seen Teo’s essay?
The principal sighs and replies:
- Yes, but I don’t know how to grade it. If I fail Teo, his essay will be correct, but if the essay is correct, he should pass. But if he passes, his essay will be wrong. A wrong essay means he shouldn’t pass. I’m stuck in a dilemma. I’ve been struggling with this since yesterday.
The teacher is also left baffled.
