1. Tommy was wearing a thick warm scarf and looked very unhappy. He HAD a sore throat.
2 “It’s your fault”, said Mum angrily in the morning when she was leaving for work. “You’ve eaten too much ice cream, haven’t you?
Tomorrow your friends are going on a picnic, and you will stay at home.” Tommy switched on the telly but there WAS nothing interesting on.
3 He reached for the bookshelf and took an old book with a picture of a ship on the cover. He had lots of books but he DIDN'T LIKE reading them, as he preferred films.
4 However, he opened the book. It was about the adventures of a brave captain and his SEAMEN.
5 On their way to India they survived through storms and fought pirates. A treasure chest WAS FOUND by them at the end of the journey. When Mum came home, she saw Tommy searching the bookshelf. The book with a ship on the cover was on the bed. “My favourite book,” said Mum. “I liked it when I was as old as you are now. Why don’t you want to read it?”
6/7 “Because I HAVE already READ it.” said Tommy. “I AM LOOKING for another one.”
