Today I went on a school trip. We visited the science museum and it was really interesting. We got there so fast by train. We saw some farms and villagers along the way. At the museum, I learned a lot about robots. I didn’t know they could play chess with us. It was so cool! Then the guide taught us how to make a
model robot. I took a lot of great photos, too. After that, I went to the gift shop and bought some lovely gifts for my parents. They weren’t expensive. All in all, it was an exciting day.{what,do,people,in,the,uk,sometimes,put,in,a,birthday,cake}.

I think today’s school trip was terrible. We took the train to the museum. It was so hot on the slow train. The museum was big and boring. Everything was about robots and I’m not interested in that. The rooms were really dark and it was difficult to take photos, so I didn’t take any. There were also too many people and I couldn’t really see or hear the guide. The things in the gift shop were so expensive. I didn’t like the trip at all.
Complete the chart. How do Helen and Jim describe these things? the trip the train the museum the gift shop and gifts
