The Discovery


~Summary~

The main character is Amy who lives in a village. Her parents owned a caravan site and a small grocery shop. However, it had been raining all week so nobody wants to come their shop in the bad weather. Therefore, Amy's parents will have to sell the business and find some other work to do but Amy doesn't want to leave the village and live in a town.

One rainy day, Mrs Long who is an archaeologist came the caravan to look for some nice objects. Amy and Mrs Long went across the old wooden bridge into the fields on the other side of the river. Amy asked her that what are you hoping to find. Mrs Long answered that she wants to find anything which people might have lost or thrown away a long time ago.

After the question, Amy said goodbye to Mrs Long and set off back to the caravan site to help her dad. However,the old wooden bridge seemed to move under her feet so she couldn't go back the caravan.

On the other side, Amy's parents were getting worried about Amy so her mother got into the Land Rover and set off for the bridge. When her mother arrived at the bridge, she could see both Amy and Mrs Long but the Land Rover slid into the water because of a flood. Thus, Amy's mother couldn't help her daughter and Mrs Long so the two people had to go back a long way round to the caravan.

The next day, Amy and her mother went to the bridge to find the Land Rover. When they found it, Amy found a lot of bits of coloured stone too. Therefore, they called Mrs Long and dug out it. The jars were full of gold and silver coins! According to Mrs Long, archaeologists have searched for the Roman Villa for many years. However, nobody could find them.

That afternoon, people began to arrive in the village. Newspaper, reporters,television cameras and any more. Thus Amy and her village were famous and Amy's parents were busy all day in the shop.


~Impression~

I think this story tell me that if we have a bad thing, we might have a chance to change a good thing. For example, Amy didn't like the rainy day but she could find a good object due to the bad weather day. Therefore, I think we should take an opportunity to change a good things!
