    In the Happiness Primary School, there was a boy named Ali. He was cheerful and smart, yet he didn't like doing homework.

    Every day after class, students were given homework. But Ali would start thinking about fun things he could do instead of homework.

    Ali used his vivid imagination to come up with ideas to avoid doing homework. One day, sitting in his room, a funny idea popped into his head.

    Ali decided to write on his homework sheet, 'I gave up doing homework today because my cat took it as a new playground!'

    When Ali arrived at school the next day, he handed in his homework sheet with a broad smile on his face. As Mrs. Anna read the sheet, she burst into laughter.

    With a wide smile, she said, 'Ali, this is the funniest excuse I've ever seen!'

    Instead of punishing Ali, Mrs. Anna decided to turn it into a fun lesson. She started telling a funny story about a very smart cat who loved to play with different things.

    From that day on, Ali became famous in school for his funny excuses. Each day he would come up with a new excuse, turning the task of doing homework into a fun adventure.

    Mrs. Anna would always laugh at his excuses, but she also made sure Ali understood the lessons. She turned each excuse into an interesting learning experience.

    Ali's funny excuses became a source of joy for everyone. His classmates eagerly waited for his new excuses and even started sharing their own funny stories.
