A School Parade
Hi, readers. How did you celebrate your Independence Day? I celebrated it by joining
a school parade. We had so much fun before and during the parade. Let me tell you how it
went.
In the beginning, we prepared our costumes. Every class had to choose one student to
dress as an Indonesian hero. I was chosen as the class representative. I dressed as Cut Nyak
Dien. Other students wore red and white clothes.
After I dressed up, I went around the school with all the students. During the parade,
we sang the ‘Hari Merdeka’ song. There was a marching band following us. Suddenly, it
started to rain. We ran back to our classroom.
Finally, after the rain stopped, we gathered back at the schoolyard. The headmaster
announced the winner of the best costume. A student from the other class won. He dressed up
as Tuanku Imam Bonjol.
The school parade was fun and made us remember our national heroes. I was so
proud. I could not wait to join this again next year.

Answer the following questions based on the text.


a. How did Monita celebrate her Independence Day?
b. What did Monita do before the parade?
c. Why did they run back to their class in the middle of the parade?

The text is for question number 3 – 8!

Today, my school held an Independence Day celebration event. It welcomed students


from every grade to participate in many fun games, such as tug of war, krupuk race, sack
race, tandem race, and the marble in spoon race. Many students participated, which made all
the games so exciting.
In the beginning, I participated in the marble-in-spoon race. It was a very tight game
between me and Galang. I almost beat him at the beginning of the race, but he was so fast and
steady. He could even run with it. He came first and I came second. It was hard to beat
Galang in this game.
The next game was a tug of war, sack race, and tandem race. All the games were held
at the same time. I saw Andre participate in the sack race. At first, he led the race, but
suddenly he fell in the middle of the race. But finally, he came second. It was so sad that he
couldn’t finish first. Meanwhile, Pipit participated in a tandem race with our friends. Her
team came third. It was not too bad.
The last game was the krupuk race. Once again I met Galang in the final. The fun part
was I finished first and he finished after me. I finished my krupuk with three or four bites. It
was a joyful day at my school. Everyone put a smile on their faces. I was delighted. At the
end of the event, my class was announced as the grand champion of the whole competition.
