Abducted



It was a dark and stormy night. I was in my backyard. Suddenly, a U.F.O. appeared in the sky. They, the aliens, abducted me. They took me inside their spaceship. The spaceship was really very big. It was very technological. There were lots of buttons and lights blinking everywhere. I could hear beeps all over too. The aliens were very strange. They had cool guns. I liked it. I like guns. We went to a futuristic planet.  When we arrived in their planet it looked like Mars. There were lots of cows. I never thought there would be cows on Mars. I was taken to a prison in a big tower. When it was time to go to bed I could manage to escape. I left the tower and stole their spaceship and I returned to earth. What a relief!

RUDE QUESTIONS | C2 LEVEL TEXT EXAMPLE

Why is it rude and socially unacceptable to ask certain questions? The Independent  -  Christine Manby Picture the scene. You’re at a party. You know no one but the host and they’ve had to rush to the kitchen to rescue some smoking vol-au-vents from the oven. You spot a friendly looking fellow guest, also on their own, and sidle over to make their acquaintance by the buffet table. You swap names. You compare notes on your respective journeys to the venue. You talk about the weather. Hasn’t it been strange this year? So far so good. Now what? The host passes by with those vol-au-vents. You grab one and shove it in your mouth. And before you’ve entirely finished eating it you come out with the line , “So, what do you do?” If this were the 1970s, the needle would skitter across the vinyl on the record player, bringing the music to an abrupt and ugly end.
