36. 5th April 20XX Sunny

Last week, my mum asked me to do some shopping for her.
She gave me her purse and a list of things to buy. I promised
her that I will buy all the things.
First, I went to the market. I went to a vegetable stall and
bought some carrots and tomatoes. Next, I went to the
supermarket to buy a bag of washing powder. When I got
home, Mum asked me where her purse was. I could not find it
so I ran back to the supermarket. I was very nervous.
In the end, the manager of the supermarket had found the
purse, and gave it back to me. I learnt that I should be more
careful.
