2 International Arts Carnival International Arts Carnival Reading Comprehension
Winnie is writing in her diary. Read the diary entry.
19 August 20XX (Sat) Sunny
Rachel and I went to the International Arts Carnival today. We were both excited to watch the prize-winning play Magic Maze, but we had a very bad experience at the theatre.
When the show started, a woman came in and walked around to find her seat. After a while, the boy in front of me discussed the play with his friend loudly. I wanted to shout at him and ask him to keep quiet. Suddenly his friend carelessly dropped his drink on the floor. The staff had to clean the floor right away. How could I focus on the play with all this?
Then Rachel found that the woman next to her was taking videos.
Rachel tried to stop her, but she said some bad words to Rachel! How rude! She continued until a staff member talked to her. Near the end of the performance, someone’s phone rang. Everyone turned towards the sound.
It was really bad.
Rachel and I did not enjoy the performance today. It was a pity because this group of actors seldom perform in Hong Kong.
