A Shooting Star

   


One day I was in the mountains near Sóller with my friends Peter and John. It was ten o’clock and we were hiking. Suddenly, we saw a shooting star. We closed our eyes for several seconds. When we opened them, we were in a desert island.



The island was very small. There were many palm trees and a cave. Suddenly, we heard a thunder and it started to rain. We ran toward the cave. When we were near the cave, we heard voices so we decided to hide behind a palm tree. After several minutes, three boys came out of the cave. The boys were our replicas. Their names were the same as our names. They were wearing the same clothes we were wearing. They were also speaking Catalan and Spanish. When they saw us, they took us inside the cave and locked us in a jail.

Suddenly, I heard a noise. It was my alarm clock and I was at home. I was lying in my bed. It was all a nightmare.


Activity:

1. Invent a similar story about a mysterious experience.

2. The title of your story has to be "A Shooting Star".

3. The first and the last paragraph must be the same. However, you have to adapt it to your story.

4. You have to invent the second paragraph. If you need a dictionary, click here.

5. When you finish, send it to the teacher's e-mail!
