Unseen Passage for Class 8 - Passage 13
Posted by Olympiad Tester on
Ben and his friend Ethan love to go kayaking in the summer. They each have their own kayak. Ben's kayak is yellow, and Ethan's kayak is red. Whenever it is not raining, they kayak on the small lake in town. They look for fish, turtles, and muskrats when they are kayaking. They also like to see ducks and loons. Sometimes they bring fishing poles with them so they can try to catch fish. Sometimes they just paddle around. They have the most fun when they race each other in their kayaks.
They always pack a lunch. They have a favorite spot on the lake to stop and eat their sandwiches. After lunch, they paddle around the lake some more. Then they stop again to have some cookies.
