【题目】阅读短文，选择正确答案。
Four girls go to school every day by taxi. One day one of the girls says, “There is a test in the morning. Let’s go to the school late. Then we will not have to take the test.” “What can we tell the teacher?” one of the girls asks. “She will be angry. We need a good excuse（理由）.” The girls think for a few minutes, then one of them says, “Let’s tell him that our taxi has a flat（平的）tyre（轮胎）.” “That’s a good idea,” the other girls say. “We will tell him that.”
They arrive at school an hour later. The test is finished. “Why are you late?” the teacher asks, “You miss（错过）the test.” “Our taxi has a flat tyre,” one of the girls says. The teacher thinks for a moment, then he says, “Sit down.” The girls do this. Then the teacher says, “Write on a piece of paper the answer to this question: Which tyre is flat?” What a difficult question! The girls look at each other sadly. At last they give different answers.
