Reading Test

Hello! My name is Susan, I have got one sister and two

brothers, and I am the oldest of them all. Last weekend, the weather
was fine. It was sunny and warm. So, we decided to go on picnic. It was
Jenny's idea, actually.
On Saturday, we bought plenty of food and juice, and very
early the next morning, we took the bus to the countryside*. When we
arrivedthere, Tony and Bob took their cameras and started taking
photos while we were busy preparing the camp. I advised the kids not
to go near the river.
At noon, Tony played the guitar, and the others sang and
danced. After that, we ate all the food and had a nap. In the evening
we returned home very happy and relaxed.
