Passage 1
Reggie and his parents were going on a vacation to Maldives. He was delighted to sit by the window. He looked out of the window excitedly. The buildings gradually grew smaller until they looked like small dots. The moving vehicles were no longer visible. Occasionally, he could see clouds floating around. His mom was watching a movie and his dad was reading the newspaper. Reggie turned his attention to what other people were doing. He saw that most of the passengers had gone off to sleep. The flight attendants were busy providing passengers with blankets and pillows. Reggie knew that it would be a long time before they landed. However, he wasn't feeling sleepy. He took out his sketch book and began to sketch.
Passage 2
Reggie's eyes widened as he looked at his surroundings in wonder. It seemed as if he had entered into a new world. He could not wait to explore the place with his parents. The tall trees around them formed a thick, green umbrella which blocked the sunlight. All they could hear was the sound of insects, birds, and animals.
Reggie could barely contain his excitement when he saw a lioness with her cubs on the other side of the stream. He tried to look at the lioness closely from the window.
After a short ride they came to a place where they saw beautiful peacocks dancing in all their glory. To the right there were deer and stags. Reggie was loving every moment of this ride. He knew that he would never forget this day.
