m getting a new smartphone:
as a birthday present. I talked to a salesperson at Phone World
oday, and he helped me choose the one I want. I really need a good phone for playing
games. I'm going to ask my parents for the Net-X tomorrow, I can't wait! It has a really
good screen and speaker, so my games will look and sound fantastic. It doesn't have very
long battery life, but I don't care because I won't take it outside much. I think this
smartphone is the best option for me. It is also cheaper than some of the other smartphones,
so I think my parents will agree to get it for me.
Jhope you can join my party because it's going to be fun!
See you soon,
Ashley

A MEETING WITH AN ALIEN
By Mike Smith
I will never forget the day I met an alien.
I was ten years old. I was with my friend Jonathan. We were climbing trees in the forest
near my home.
I was sitting near the lop of a tree when I saw a large, green face next to me. It had huge,
black eyes, and a tiny mouth. It was looking me and making strange noises. I think it was
trying to tell me something, but I couldn't understand its language. I was terrified, but I
couldn't move my body. The alien spoke for about a minute. Then, I saw a strange light and
closed my eyes, When I opened them, the alien wasn't there anymore.
Jonathan didn't see it. When I described it. Jonathan thought it was just a frog. I don't think
it was a frog because it was too big. I'm sure it was an alien from another planet.
