Text 1 Last Saturday I woke up early, but I didn’t get up because there was no school. Suddenly, my telephone was rung. My friend, Fanny, called me, she asked me to go out at 10.00 o’clock. She wanted to buy something in a traditional market. Finally, we were out. In the street, I saw a piece of pink coupon. Interested with its colour, I took it, then Fanny and I read this out. We were fully shocked, it was a receipt of a four-night tour to Lombok The expired date was that day. Surprisingly, the name was Fanny Fenita and the birth date was exactly the same as Fanny, my friend had. It was also valid for two persons. My God We were thinking that maybe the coupon just fell from the sky and it was there for us. We were in a hurry to the address of the tour agency that issued the coupon. The tour agency took care of everything. We went home and still could not believe what was going on. Two days later we were on the Senggigi Beach, lied in the warmth sun. Moreover, we had long public holiday, so we could enjoy the “gift” happily. We also bought some presents for our family and friends. Adapted from: English in Focus for Grade VIII Text 2 Scary Movie After the movie was over, I left the cinema quickly. My watch showed 11.30 p.m. as I got on to my bicycle. I pedalled hard on my bicycle and was soon speeding home. My thought went back to the movie I had just seen. It was a scary story. I could remember clearly a woman screaming as she was being attacked by a monster. Somehow that frightful scene stayed in my mind and I could not forget it. The road was dark and quiet. I had to pass a graveyard on the way home. As I approached the graveyard, I heard some sounds behind me. I was frightened and began to cycle faster. The sound came nearer and nearer. Then I heard a familiar voice calling me. I looked back and saw Hadi, my classmate. He had also seen the movie and was frightened too. He had cycled after me so that he would not be alone. Both of us laughed out loud over our behaviour.
