Il viaggio di John.Rebecca Bellucci 3^ C

Ciao, sono John e ho deciso di raccontarvi la mia storiaAlcuni anni fa avevo una passione per i viaggi.Decisi di partire per esplorare il mondo ma quando partii mi imbattei in una tempesta che portò la mia nave alla deriva fino ad arrivare su un isola sperduta nel mare.

Non ero un esperto di sopravvivenza ma riuscii a procurarmi del cibo per qualche settimana, nel frattempo cercavo in tutti i modi di farmi notare dalle barche che passavano a qualche kilometro dalla mia isoletta. Un giorno finalmente riuscii a farmi vedere da una nave mercantile diretta in Inghilterra e così riuscii a fare ritorno nella mia patria.

John’s travel.Hello, I'm John and I decided to tell you my story A few years ago I had a passion for travelling. I decided to explore the world, but when I left I ran into a storm that brought my ship adrift until I arrived on a remote island in the sea. I was not a survival expert but I managed to get some food for a few weeks, in the meantime I tried in every way to get noticed by the boats passing by, a few miles from my little island. One day I finally managed to be seen by a merchant ship bound for England, and so I was able to return to my homeland.

The pirates and their treasure Irene Innocenti 3°c

One morning, in summer, the pirate crew was resting on the beach of an’island.

Around noon or so, one of them saw a bottle floating near the shore on the beach. What was inside the bottle? A map...and what else?

There was also a letter in which it was written a riddle which said " if you want to find the treasure, on the lost

island you need to go". Captain Jim ordered his friend Jack the former captain now retired to check out a map of the world, where there was this island. Jack managed to find a message which said that this island could be found only at night because the reflection of the sunshine made it impossible to see it. He also found the indication of where he was: he was about ten miles from where he was at that moment. Along the way they had to face obstacles: many octopuses pirates and other inhabitants of the island capitain Jim to get the treasure. In these hard fighting the crew of the ten pirates was reduced to three. Jim, the captain and Jack.

At the end of the trip they managed to get on the island. It was night.

They crossed the still water and the three pirates still alive descended on the island. The captain Jim ventured on when the discoverd the island and the other pirates immediately came to kill him.

When the other two pirates found Jim, Jack became the leader as he was certainly the most muscular of the two left, he was more skilled with the sword and the tallest. Jack decided to attack and kill the other pirates; once he killed those pirates he took the map and

found a still giant.

The giant gave him a letter and in this letter was written that they had to go to the vulcano "Wasayu".

Once they went up the vulcano, having avoided other traps, the two pirates climbed the moutain and arrived in to a gallery. After entering they found that it was full of traps, but the two pirates found the treasure. The chest contained gold, jewerly and many other valuables. Then Jack went ahead and then he killed his companion with his gun. Jack returned to his ship, and after sailing in the sea shaken by a terrible storm came to his village,happy because he had the treasure only for himself. Now it was a happy pirate, brave, but especially rich!!

The girl and the bearBy Alexandra Robles – 3^ C

A girl takes refuge from reality into a fantasy world created by herself and that only she can see. In her ideal world, she writes on a piece of paper and her story becomes the reality, She can have long conversations with creatures like animals, and the most fantastic things : all her fears dissolve in a small pile of black fog, which is released into the air. One day as she passed in front of a colorful butterfly, she heard a noise coming from the middle of the forest, so strong that all the animals around her ran away and found refuge in the first hiding place. She turned and followed the sound, but Albert, a deer of diamonds, stopped her, preventing her from continuing. The girl stopped to get an explanation. The deer explained that in the middle of the forest all his fears had joined and had taken the appearance of a large bear. She thought about what she had just heard, and the curiosity to see the huge animal was so great that she decided to leave and search his fears. In comfortable clothes and a backpack full of what she needed, she started her journey inside the forest, along with Albert. They saw a colourful Phoenix, they passed colored horses with great drawings on their back and all sorts of creatures, but now the main thing she was interested in, was seeing the bear. Albert told her that they were almost there and that he could not go any further, and that she would have to go on alone, he pointed the way, and then he turned back and ran away. She continued for a short while, when she heard that noise again, she began to run, then hid behind a tree where she could see a big bear of black fog, with long claws

and large fierce eyes. She took a deep breath and then came out of his hiding place and sat in front of the beast, who sniffed her scent, the animal turned and ran towards her, the girl was still, she never thought that her fears could kill her. She did something that the bear did not expect: she began to run towards him. As soon as she saw that she was approaching to the beast, she closed her eyes, and a few seconds later a shrill scream invaded her head, cold shivers went up her back. When she felt that those terrible sensations had gone, she opened her eyes and turned around seeing the bear lying on the ground and moaning, and then he disappeared into the thin air, leaving no trace behind him. It was something which had just happened and that she did not think was possible ... She had managed to defeat his fears.

La ragazza e l’orso

Una ragazza si rifugia dalla realtà in un mondo fantastico , creato da lei e che solo lei può vedere . In quel suo mondo ideale , quello che scrive sopra un pezzo di carta diventa realtà , può fare lunghe conversazioni con creature simili a animali e , la cosa per lei più fantastica , tutte le sue paure si dissolvono in un piccolo cumulo di nebbia nera , che si libera nell'aria . Un giorno mentre una farfalla variopinta le passava davanti , sentì un rumore provenire dal bel mezzo della foresta , così forte che tutti gli animali intorno a lei si rifugiarono nel primo nascondiglio che trovarono, si girò e segui quel suono, ma Albert , un cervo di diamanti, la bloccò , impedendole di proseguire . La ragazza si fermò per avere delle spiegazioni. Il cervo le spiegò che nel mezzo della foresta tutte le sue paure si erano unite e avevano preso le sembianze di un grande orso . Lei pensò a quello che aveva appena sentito e la curiosità di vedere quell'enorme animale era tanta che decise di partire alla ricerca delle sue paure . In vestiti comodi e uno zaino pieno si avvio all'interno della foresta , insieme ad Albert .Incrociarono fenici colorate , cavalli con grandi disegni sul dorso e ogni genere di creature , ma ora quello che le interessava era vedere l'orso . Albert le disse che erano quasi arrivati e che lui non poteva proseguire oltre , e che lei avrebbe dovuto continuare da sola , le indicò la via , poi si giro e corse via . Proseguì ancora per poco , quando sentì di nuovo quel rumore , si mise a correre , poi si nascose dietro a un albero dove potè vedere un grosso orso di nebbia nera , con lunghi artigli e grandi occhi feroci. Fece un respiro profondo poi uscì dal suo nascondiglio e si mise proprio davanti alla bestia , che fiutò il suo odore ; l'animale si girò , e si mise a correre verso di lei , la ragazza era immobile , non avrebbe mai pensato che le sue paure avrebbero potuta ucciderla. Lei fece qualcosa che l'orso non si aspettava : si mise a correre verso di lui . Non appena la ragazza si accorse che si stava avvicinando alla bestia , chiuse gli occhi , e pochi secondi dopo un urlo acuto le invase la testa , dei brividi gelidi le salirono su per la schiena.Quando sentì che quelle

tremende sensazioni erano svanite, riaprì gli occhi e si girò vedendo l'orso che si sdraiava per terra gemendo , e scomparendo nel nulla , senza lasciare traccia . Era appena successa una cosa che lei non pensava possibile ... era riuscita a sconfiggere le sue paure .

STORIA INTERROTTA By Edoardo Pagliai

Era una giornata di pioggia,le foglie inseguite dal vento finivano la loro corsa nelle pozzanghere trasformandosi in fragili barchette. Un pettirosso, al riparo sotto una tettoia,guardava attentamente con i suoi occhietti neri un cespuglio di alloro,chiedendosi se tra quelle foglie avrebbe trovato un comodo e confortevole riparo.

Il gatto che si era nascosto fra quei rami guardando il piccolo uccellino si leccò i baffi e si preparò a catturarlo. Il rumore assordante del tuono fece tremare tutto per un secondo. Il pettirosso subito dopo si alzò in volo verso il cespuglio,il gatto balzò fuori dal cespuglio,nuovamente il rumore di un tuono si propagò nell'aria,seguito da un fulmine...la tv si spense all'improvviso e il piccolo Michele non seppe mai se il pettirosso fosse riuscito a scappare dalle grinfie del gatto.

The Interrupted Story

It was a rainy day, the leaves being chased by the wind ended their run in the puddles becoming brittle little boats. A robin, sheltered under a roof, looked closely with his black eyes a laurel bush, wondering if he would find a convenient and comfortable shelter among its leaves. A cat that was hiding between the branches was watching the little bird , licked his whiskers and was ready to catch the little bird. The deafening noise of a thunder shook everything for a second. The robin flew towards the bush, the cat jumped out of the bush, again the sound of a thunder spread in the air, followed by a lightning ... the TV suddenly went off and little Michael never knew if the robin had managed to escape from the claws of the cat.
