READING
My Last Holiday

My last semester holiday was the most beautiful holiday I ever

had. I and my friends went together to Bali Island. We went there by
plane. We arrived at Ngurah Rai
Airport at 10 o’clock. We took
a morning plane from Jakarta.
That was why we could arrive there
still in the morning. The
first day, we only went around
Kuta beach. Kuta beach is so
beautiful. It is different from the beach in Jakarta. The second day,
we went to some destination outside the city. There are so many
beautiful destinations in Bali. Beside that we also played many
beach games. We stayed there for 3 days. We went back to Jakarta
in the fourth day, because the accommodation was very expensive
there. However, I will always remember that holiday.

Comprehension!
1. Where did they go last semester holiday?

2. How did they go there?

3. What time did they arrive?
