The Bank

My name's Tony and I'm a photographer. I work for a big newspaper in the city. Yesterday morning I was going to a hotel in town to take some pictures of famous singers. I was walking past the bank and I suddenly decided to go in because I needed to get some money to buy lunch later.   But when I was inside I knew something was wrong. There was a man wearing a black sweater. I couldn't see his face but he was holding a big plastic bag. A woman was putting money into it. I knew then that he was stealing the money so I shouted 'Stop that right now!' He turned round and I took his picture. He was very surprised! He just dropped the money and then, before I could catch him, he ran out of the bank. Everyone said they thought I was very brave and they thanked me.   Then a policeman arrived and asked me lots of questions. Someone told him that I had a picture of the man. But the policeman asked, 'Why did you take his picture?' and said it was a dangerous thing to do. I felt stupid. Then the policeman took my camera away so I didn't get my photos of famous people that day!

Reading:Look at the picture and read the story “The Competition”. Write some words to complete the sentences about the story. You can use 1, 2, 3 or 4 words.

The competition

My name’s Richard, and I live in a small village with my older sister and my parents. My sister’s name is Katy. Our village is very near a big, blue lake, and we love to go swimming in it. Last Tuesday, my friend William came to our house and we went swimming together. When we were in the water, we saw some silver fish. Katy said, ‘Look, I can swim faster than the fish!’ William said, ‘So can I!’ Then Katy said, ‘Let’s see who can swim across the lake the fastest! Let’s have a race!’ William likes to have competitions, and so does Katy, but I don’t because I am the youngest and so I never win. I was last again. I felt tired and unhappy. William said, ‘OK. Let’s have one more competition. Let’s see who can jump the highest out of the water. Richard, you go first.’ I jumped up, then Katy jumped, then William. I jumped the lowest, and William jumped the highest. William shouted, ‘I am the best at jumping! I am the best!’ But when he was shouting, a beautiful gold fish jumped out of the water, much higher than William. I laughed and said, ‘No, William, that beautiful fish is the best!’

Examples Richard and his family live in a small village. The name of Richard’s sister is Katy.
