All abouy eating - Phyllis' amendments
It is a sad news report. A shop selling fishballs, “siu mai”, fake shark’s fin, fried noodles, fried chicken wings, fried sweet potato, red and green bean soup, congee, sesame soup, sweet potato soup, French fries, apple pie, wanton, shrimp dumpling and soya milk in Causeway Bay. You can eat five bowls in two minutes because they are too yummy.
.
Although pop star Jenny Leung opened this shop, two people were food poisoned there. Many policemen went there to close the shop. Jenny was fined for HK$300,000 and the staff had to go to jail for two months. Many visitors said Hong Kong food is not good now. Jenny’s fans said she did not work hard and her songs were not good.

Eating Place
We've discussed today about eating. Pick an eating place we've talked about (restaurant, cafe, dai pai dong, tea house, etc) and write a story about it. Think, for example, about what would happen in that place? What kind of people will be there? What kind of food will they order? What will they talk about?Try to write more this time :-)
Somewhere in time - amended by Phyllis
Do you want to go back to a happy year? I want to go back in time, when I was 6 years old. When I was P.1, I never did much homework and on weekdays we can go to some interesting places. In the picture, my sister and I were in Stanley and we were using clay to make a cartoon model. I always liked playing and never did much homework, and that's why I would want to go back to that period.

Picture Story (amended by Phyllis)
Once upon a time, there were some “super-magicians” living in the sky and in a tree house. We could not see them because they wore invisible coats, and we could only see their shoes. They could make people fly in the sky. The magic was a mystery. The magic was special and could amaze you. Some magicians played pranks on thieves. Some people said they were like policemen. Now the super-magicians lived on earth but we could not see them.
When the super-magicians lived in the magic world, they did not have money to buy anything. Alvin was one of them. When he was young, is family was poor and did not have much food to eat. So Alvin went to the magic school to learn some magic. When he was 12 years old, he used magic to make more gold so his family was not poor. They could have more food and were not hungry everyday. Now, he has built magic schools on earth and is living here. He is a famous magician. Everyone goes to his school to learn about magic. The magic world has disappeared.

The Chocolate Factory was closed from 1950 to 2003. Willy Wonka put five golden tickets in 5 chocolate bars. If you had a golden ticket, you could go to thechocolate factory which had been closed for 53 years. Five children got the golden ticket. They were a computer boy, a fat boy, a competitive girl, Charlie, and me (a rich girl).
In the factory, the fat boy drank the chocolate milk in the chocolate river. Buthe was too fat, so he fell into the river. I wanted Charlie to lose the competition, so I told a monkey to catch Charlie. He wasthrown to the sweet mountain, but the competitive girl pushed me to the mountainas well. The computer boy and the competitive girl went onto the boat, and thecompetitive girl was thrown into the ice-cream pool. Finally, the computer boy won the competition and he got the factory. I was very angry and I never talked to my Dad.
