Task 2.6

Task21

A small story...somewhere in Europe...

“Once upon a time there was a patrol, that had organized an one-day excursion to a mountain nearby. They had organized it many days before. The day had come and they were meeting at the main square of their neighborhood. The first that came was the patrol leader, who was really proud of his new red sweater. He was careful with it because he didn’t want it to be dirty. After him the patrol co-leader came. He was not really happy, because he had cut her hair yesterday, and it didn’t come out the way she wanted. Slowly all the patrol arrives. The patrol leader counts them but someone is missing. It’s the youngest member of the patrol but he is the soul of the patrol. At that time the patrol leader’s mobile phone rings. It was him. He said he couldn’t come because he had an accident the day before and had to stay in bed. He was really sad, he was almost crying. The patrol leader says to everyone what was going on. The patrol is confused about what they should do. Everybody is sad and wondering whether they should start their excursion or not. The patrol leader tries to cheer them up a bit so that they wont cancel the excursion. Then one member of the patrol has an idea. They could visit the youngest member’s house and cook there all together. Everybody says his opinion and they are arguing a bit. Should they go on their excursion or visit him?...”

“...They agree that the best thing to do is to visit the hurt youngest member of the patrol. So they go to his house. The bell rings at the house and the mother opens the door. Surprised she takes them to her son’s room. They see their friend with bandages on his foot. He starts shouting from happiness and joy. What a surprise. All the patrol together. The children go to the kitchen and start cooking. All the materials are there. Potatoes, sausages tomatoes, breed and refreshments. One member of the patrol recommends they should make waffles too. So they bring the eggs, the flour, the milk and the marmalade. And at this point everything started. From a wrong move some flour fell over the patrol leader’s new sweater. And so they started playing with the materials. They were throwing it to each other. Till mum came in. She started laughing when she saw the situation and the dirty kids. She brought them some towels and ordered pizza, as they had burned their food. The Scouts eat, played and laughed! They had a great time because they were all together! …”




“…After arguing for a while the decide to go on this excursion that they had been preparing for days, even one member wont come with them. They put their hats on, take their rucksacks and start walking to the forest. At their way they often stop to make some photos, as they had organized a neighborhood safari. But they couldn’t easily decide which photos to make, because John- the member missing had the best inspiration about those things. So the photos weren’t so good. After arriving at the place they wanted, they started preparing lunch. Suddenly they saw that they didn’t have oil, milk and potatoes with them. And this because John was responsible for bringing them. So they couldn’t cook. Hungry as they were they tried to play their favorite game, but they were missing one player. It was then when they realized that this excursion couldn’t be as they had imagine it, and this due to the fact they weren’t all together. Sad and tired as they were they went back home. They did a quick visit to their friend and told him everything. Then they promised that they would never do anything else if they wont be all together…”
