1:句意是：想不起來因什麼而爭論。很久以前的事了，已經忘了吵架的原因了，所以不記得了，用remember（記得）。
2:從第二段第三句，和最後一段的第一句中，可知，難忘的是lesson。
3:兩人觀點不一致，前後有轉折的意思，用However。however錶轉折，它的前後都要有標點符號。but不用
4:跟a good idea “好主意”連用，用came up with“想出”最合適。
5:根據情節描述，兩個孩子分別在講桌的兩邊，也就是說，一邊一個，套用one…the other…結構。
6:講桌上的東西很大，顏色極易分辨，因此使用clear“清楚的”。
7:根據後文內容，我不相信……而引起的又一次爭論，得知男孩說出來的是white。
8:我認為是black，男孩認為是white。我不相信男孩所說。
9:因…..而爭論，用介詞about“關於…”。
10:老師讓我和男孩互換位置，用places。
11:作者開始堅持black，而現在改變位置，看到的是white，這時回答物體的顏色，觀點明顯變化，用had to“不得不”。
12:這個物體有兩個不同的面，differently“不同的”。
13:只是從我這面看是黑色的。only+介詞短語作狀語時，從句不變，主句倒裝。
