ReadingJustin is reading a story about an alien boy’s visit to a museum. Read the story.

Kico’s museum tour

‘It’s my first time to visit a museum at this time. Wow, I can see the

stars through the roof!’ Kico looked up when he walked through the

entrance into Space Dome.

A robot was behind the information counter. ‘Welcome to Space Dome!

These earphones provide you with an audio guide service to guide you

around the museum. Enjoy!’

Kico put on the earphones and took an escalator up to an exhibition

hall. It had a display of the history of the whole universe. There was an

interactive zone inside. Kico spent an hour there building his own super

UFO. ‘Hi, Kico. Your UFO looks great! Congratulations! We have a UFO

Competition next month. We’d like to invite you to the competition at

Space Dome. See you then.’ Kico jumped with joy when he heard the

message.

Then, Kico came to the

VR Centre. He read the

instructions on an information

board. ‘Put on the VR headset

and you’ll feel like you’re

travelling in space. Let’s start

your 10-minute space adventure!’ He put on the headset immediately.

‘Oh, am I flying in space?’ He said in surprise. ‘Wow, thousands of stars

are around me! What’s that blue planet over there? It’s special! I want

to visit it one day …’ Kico really enjoyed the adventure.

After that, Kico went to the souvenir shop and bought a model of the

blue planet.

This was Kico’s best museum tour ever!

Book report

Name: Norman Ho Date: 25 September

Book title: We Are Nice! Author: Jody Allen

Main characters: Dad Monster, Mum Monster, Little Joey

Summary:

There was a Monster family living on a hill in a city. They never

went down the hill because people were afraid of them. One

day, the city was on fire. The Monster family ran down the hill

and saved the people. The people were not afraid of the family

any more.

Opinions:

It is an interesting story. The monsters look strange, but they

are friendly and helpful. They save people in danger. I like the

happy ending very much because people and the monsters

become friends at last.
