Text 1 for question 1-3

I really enjoyed my holiday in Australia. Last Sunday I visited a marine park called Sea
World which is at surfers’ Paradise near Brisbane. It’s Australia’s largest marine park and I had a
wonderful day there.
The first thing I saw was the Oceanorium where you can watch all sorts of sea fish and
animal under water. There were huge turtles, sharks, and a beautiful tropical sea fish. The most
exciting thing was watching a man feeding the sharks. He wore a special diving suit. Then I
watched the performance of sea animals. The saw was in a big outdoor swimming pool. There
were killer whales, dolphins and sea lions, and they did all sort of fantastic things in the water.
One of the girls in the show rode around the pool on the back of killing whale, and another girl
rode underwater on the back of a big turtle. After the saw I had lunch. There were several big
restaurant at the park and I had lunch in a restaurant that was shape like a ship! Then I watched a
wonderful water-ski show which was held on a lake.
There were lots of other things to do at the park. There was lake cruising, a train ride, a

Sura and Baya

A long time ago, there were two animals, Sura and Baya. Sura was the name of a
shark and Baya was a crocodile. They lived in a sea. Once Sura and Baya were looking
for some food. Suddenly, Baya saw a goat.
"Yummy, this is my lunch," said Baya.
"No way! This is my lunch. You are greedy" said Sura.
Then they fought for the goat. After several hours, they were very tired. Feeling
tired of fighting, they lived in the different places. Sura lived in the water and Baya lived
in the land. The border was the beach, so they would never fight again. One day, Sura
went to the land and looked for some food in the river. He was very hungry and there was
not much food in the sea. Baya was very angry when he knew that Sura broke the
promise. They fought again. They both hit each other. Sura bit Baya’s tail. Baya did the
same thing to Sura. He bit very hard until Sura finally gave up and went back to the sea.
Baya was happy.
