Exercise 13
Read about Josh’s school trip. Then, answer all the questions.
Last week, Josh went on a school trip to Gua Niah. It was famous because a long time ago
people lived in caves there. When Josh and his classmates arrived at their hotel, they found
some pamphlets about the caves. The next morning, they got up early to go and visit them.
When they went inside the first cave, Josh was unhappy because it was very dark inside. But
after a few minutes, he could see the old rock walls, but he was disappointed as there was
not much to see. Suddenly, Josh heard something above his head. He looked up and saw
hundreds of bats. Josh's teacher took a torch out of her backpack and pointed it at one of
the walls. There were some beautiful paintings of the people and animals that lived in the
caves thousands of years ago. After three hours in the cave, Josh, his teacher, and his friends
headed back to the hotel to eat their lunch and draw some pictures of the cave paintings.

Subject Book Fair at KT Mall!
Hi John,
I’m sorry it’s been so long since we last talked. I’ve been really busy recently. How are
you doing? I hope all is well with you. Are you free next Sunday? There will be a book fair
at KT Mall, so I’d like to go there with you.
I heard that 121 exhibitors will take part in the book fair. So, it’s an awesome
opportunity for us to buy books, magazines, and stationeries at affordable prices. Also,
there will be many activities every day until Friday. There will be a drawing competition
and a meet-and-greet session with incredibly popular book authors and novelists. I’m
getting excited because some local celebrities will come to the book fair too.
Let me know if you want me to pick you. I’m looking forward to hear from you.
Much love,
Suzy
