My First Ride on a Ferris-Wheel
My family and I went to a fair last night. We saw crowds of people having fun there. Several people went on the rides and others enjoyed the attractions. People also
queued at the food stalls. They filled themselves with cotton candy, pop corn and other food. In another corner, we could see children awing the fireworks and flickering lights.
My brother, Toni, invited me to ride on a ferris-wheel. I hesitated because I was afraid of heights. However, my brother urged me to go on the ferris-wheel. He kept
convincing me that it would be fun and exhilarating. He pleaded many times. He said that it wouldn’t be scary. Finally, I agreed.
I sat still in my seat and felt a bit nervous. My brother was sitting next to me. Soon afterwards, the wheel took us up, slowly. Then, it rotated higher and higher. I
looked over the side and felt dizzy. My hands and feet were shaky. I screamed out loud and was about to cry out of fear when we were at the highest point. My brother held my
icy-cold hands and kept comforting me. I felt relieved as we reached the ground. Yeah, it was over and I thought that it
would be my first and last ride on ferris-wheel. Then we walked towards our parents, who were waiting on a bench near the magic show arena. They handed us cotton candy
and cups of warm soothing beverage. Taken from LKS PR Bahasa Inggris Intan Pariwara
