Sarah Jane works in a shop in town. She likes her job

because she meets new people and sees all the new clothes
that come in. This week, she isn’t working because she is
on holiday. Sarah likes doing different in her free time. At
the moment, she is learning how to ride a horse. Horse
riding isn’t dangerous, but riders must always wear a
safety helmet. She is new and she doesn’t ride very fast
and she stops when the horse needs a break. It is scary
when the horse starts to run, but it is very exciting. Right now, Sarah is brushing
the horse’s tail. The horse riding training school is organising a competition for next
month. Sarah is very happy about it. Her dream is to become a professional horse
rider in the future.
