John is a young boy. He always buys newspapers at the supermarket every Sunday morning. He likes going out early 1 it’s nice and quiet then.

One Sunday 2, when John walked out of the supermarket, he saw his neighbour Mrs Brown walking in front of him. The old woman was carrying a 3 bag. It looked so hard for her to carry.
John ran up to her and said, “Morning, Mrs Brown! Can I carry that bag for you?”
Mrs Brown said, “You are a 4 boy, John! Thank you.”
There was lots of 5 in the bag. As they walked, John felt the bag in his hand getting heavier and heavier. Just when they were crossing the street, the bag slipped and fell on the street.
“Oh no!” John shouted. “The fruit will be broken!”
But Mrs Brown just smiled and said, “Don’t feel 6, John. I can make juice with the fruit. Just look on the bright side!”
