They are inspired by fall .

Question:
Therefore I held off on the x - rays ; if they were done in the month of May , while I still had insurance . Strangely , I have received a bill from the dentist for $ 93.40 . I called and discovered that it was because Delta Dental is refusing to pay for that check - up on April 21 , in spite of the fact that over the phone they claimed they would pay it . Dishonest and greedy much ?

What a melodious sound they made . If one of us could n't transport them to an event , the other would .

They constantly took their kids out to do activities .

Question:
When I was in grade ten , I was taking a beginner dance class as one of my credits ( art school , right ) . The strange thing about this class was that it included many girls I had never met before -- this turned out to be a result of their tendency to take applied level classes ( while I took academic ) . Possibly they planned to attend college , but I was given the impression that it was a strategy for avoiding difficult homework . ( Not that they were lazier than I was -- I was n't really into homework either ...

Why would the girls take applied level classes ?
Answer:
None of the above choices .
