[1] Last Saturday afternoon, Fred’s mother decided to go shopping. She asked
Fred’s help. So they caught a bus to town. The bus stopped near a big supermarket and
they went inside carrying a bag. Fred wasn’t very happy because he hates shopping! He
thinks is boring!
[2] Inside the shop, Fred’s mother picked some goods that they needed – fruit,
bread, some vegetables- but she couldn’t find any rice. Fred, finally found it near the
cereals. His mother was pleased.
[3] Then Fred’s mother asked him to bring a bottle of coke. Fred went look for it,
but the bottles were in a difficult place so he had to climb on a box to reach for it. When
he jumped down, he fell and hurt his leg.
[4] To compensate him for his effort, Fred’s mother bought him an ice-cream. His
leg was hurting a lot so his mother phoned Fred’s father that came to drive them home.
When they got back, Fred went to bed to rest his leg!
