One Saturday morning，there was a very interesting film.Tom came running down the street.He wanted to be one of the first to get in.He walked up to the front of the line and pushed his way in there.

Now Tom pushed his way right in front of Peter，and no other people were in front of him.Peter did not say a word.Instead，he reached up and pulled off Tom's hat.He handed the hat to the boy behind him and said，“Pass it back，John.”

John passed the hat to the girl behind him.

“Pass it on，Kate，”John said to the girl.

The hat was passed very quickly to Betty Cook at the end of the line.Tom looked at Peter and asked，“Where's my hat?”
