Writing

1. Read the story.

A day out in London
Last week I went to London for the day with my friend Kate and her family. We got up at six o’clock and
the train left at seven o’clock. The journey took three hours.

In the morning we went to the Science museum. It was brilliant, but there was a problem. While we were
looking at the airplane models, Kate’s brother Mike got lost.

We stayed there all morning, so at one o’clock we were very hungry. It was a lovely day and we had a

picnic in the park. Everything was nice. Though there were too many cheese sandwiches, there was not

enough juice. Anyway, we had a great time.

Kate took some photographs in the park and then we went on a boat trip down the River Thames. It was

very interesting.

Then we rushed to the station. On the way home Kate and I were listening to the music when I fell asleep.

I arrived home at midnight. I was very tired but happy. It was a wonderful day.
