Off to China ---- N° 175 ---- P. 3




Off to China


1. P3
It was the summer holidays.
The weather was warm and
the sea was calm.
But one morning,
Tom work up
 in a really bad mood.
His mum said, " What 's
the matter, sweetheart?
You seem to be angry with
the whole world!"


2.  P.4
Tom was angry with the whole world,
especially with his mum, his dad and his new baby brother.
He was very angry but he didn't really knom why.
So he decided to leave... But where would he go?
He looked at the globe and saw that China was very far away.
That was it! He would go to China!


3. P.5
Tom put every thing
he needed for a long journey
in his backpack : a torch,
a bottle of water,
a large packet of biscuits,
his secret notebook,
a bucket, a big spade
and, of course,
his good friend
Rhinoferocious.


4.P.6
Tom went down to the beach and chose a spot
where nobody would notice him.
He dug and he gug and he dug and he didn't stop.
At first, other children tried to play with him.
But Tom wasn't playing! He was off to China and
he had a long way to go to get there.
Tom was digging a tunnel that
would go right through the Earth.
He knew it would be hard work
but he had a big spade !


5.P.8
Tom went on digging...
for a long, long time.
When he got to
the middle of the Earth,
he stopped for a snack.
He didn't eat much because
he had to make his food last.
He still had a long way to go...


6.P.9
He started digging again and
the hole became deeper.
Suddenly, a giant foot crashed down
right in front of him!



7.P.10
Tom heard someone shouting...
It sounded like a swear word !
Tom knew that  in China people spoke Chinese
Luckily, Tom could speak a bit of chinese.
His friend Yiyi had taught him.


8.P.11
Tom stopped for a moment to practise
the Chinese words he knew.
"She-ay she-ay" he whispered.
That was how you said ' thank you '
"Ni hao..." That was  'hello'
"Pung yo..." That was 'friend'


9.P.12
Tom felt that he had been diggingfor ages,
maybe a billion minutes!
Was it night yet?
He though about his mum and
dad and felt sad.
Suddenly he wanted to see them somuch
that he almost turned back.
But Rhinoferocious said,  "be brave !"
So Tom carried on.

10.P.14
Then suddenly  Tm was attacked
by three very angry yellow crabs.
He shouted the only word he knew in Chinese
that would frighten them, "Tzwo Kai!"
It  meant 'go away'
The crabs were  terrified and
quickly buried themselves in the sand.
If the crabs understood Chinese,
maybe it meant Tom had got  there!



11.P.16
He was excited.
He couldn't wait to see China.
He drank one last sip of water,
picked up his spade and
went on digging as fast as he could.
He didn't stop even  though  he was really tired.
Suddenly, he was blinded by sunlight.
At last, he was there!


12.P.18
It must have been lunchtime in China.
There was a delicious smell of food.
He said in a shy voice, "Ni hao!"
That was how Yiyi had taught him
to say 'hello'.
A family sitting close by
all replied, "Ni hao"


13.P.20
Then one of the little girls asked
in English, " Are you Tom?"
She pointed down the beach.
"I think your parents are looking for you.
They've been calling you for ages!"


14.P.23
Tom picked up his things and
ran off across the sand back to England.
He got there just in time.
His mum was putting the picnic out.
She gave him a big hug and
said, " Where on earth have you been, my Darling?
We were calling you!
Oh, you're all covered in sand!"
"Yes, " said Tom, "It's because
 I've been all the way to China and back!"

La fée Cinoam



La fée s'appelle  Cinoam.
Elle  habite sur un nuage.

Cinoam a des ailles, de long cheveux, de longs cils
Cinoam est très belle.

Pour aller dans sa maison...
   la fée vole !

Elle a une baguette magique pour jeter des sorts.

Elle jette un sort sur l'arbre  énorme et tordu :

Et pof!
L'arbre est tout petit et droit.

Elle jette un sort sur l'escargot !
qu'elle veut rendre plus gros :

Et pof !
Le voila très gros !
Il est plus grand que Cinoam !

Elle adore les fleurs mais il u en a qu'une.
Alors, elle jette un autre sort :

Et pof !

La voilà entourée de fleurs.
Cinoam aime le soleil
mais la montagne le cache
un petit coup de sa baguette :

Et pouf !
La montagne disparaît
et laisse le soleil briller
Les papillons sont partout !
La fée ne voit rien.
Un petit coup de baguette :

Et pcht !
Les papillons sont tous alignés.
Les oiseaux sont tous côte-à-côte
Sur la même branche.
Elle jette encore un sort :

Et vlan !
Les oiseaux sont tous éparpillés.

Ces poissons n'ont plus beaucoup d'eau.
Un coup de baguette :

Et flac !
Le nuage se déplace
et la pluie remplit la mare.
Cinoam se penche au-dessus
et regarde les poissons qui sont contents.


Et plouf !
La baguette tombe à l'eau !

Et plaf !

La fée plonge dans l'eau
pour rattraper la baguette.


Ouf !
Elle a récupéré la baguette.
Elle est toute mouillée.
C'est long à faire sécher sa robe....
alors vite une formule :

Et chling

La voilà toute habillée
et sèche  ! Mais ...

L'escargot lui a pris sa baguette
et se sauve !
Cinoam a peur

Cinoam escalade l'escargot  
pour récupérer sa baguette.

Sa baguette est cassée !
Une formule pour la réparer :

Zut !

La baguette a des problème !
Elle ne marche plus ...

Zup !

Cinoam vole.
Jusqu'au  magasin  de baguette.
pour en acheter une nouvelle.

Voilà, c'est ça. ==> Here we are, that's it.

Voilà, c'est ça.  ==>  Here we are, that's it.
