"Malcolm’s Saturday morning"

      Malcolm usually sleeps late at the weekend, but today he got up early. “good morning,” said mother. “I’m going shopping now. Father is in the study working on the computer. After breakfast, please wash the dishes and take out the rubbish. After I come back we’ll go to the cinema.”

     Malcolm said goodbye to his mother. Then he went back to the kitchen. Surprise! His breakfast was on the table and egg sandwich. What a nice surprise, but what a mess! “hello,” someone said. Malcolm had never seen him before. “who are you?” Malcolm asked. “my name is red,” he said. “I made you a sandwich. Enjoy it!”. “thank you,” said Malcolm.

     After Malcolm ate the sandwich he said, “delicious sandwich! Thanks. Now I’m going to wash the dishes and take out the rubbish.” “that’s no fun,” red said. “let’s sing and dance!” so they sang and danced. It was fun, but what a mess red made!

     Then red said,”your mother i8s home! Run and meet her. Then come back.” When Malcolm and mother got back to the kitchen, red was not there. But the kitchen was clean,clean,clean. Mother said,”this looks so good! You worked hard.” “oh, no,” said Malcolm. “it was fun!”
