Chapter five. The amazing funfair.

Seaboys don't have fishtails now. Legs are slower than fishtails, so they can't swim fast. Arta looks up. I can't breathe, he thinks. I must swim fast. All the seaboys swim up and up and up. And finally, their heads are out of the water.

Fantastic. This is great. We are free. Awesome. Oh, I'm so happy. Me too. At that moment, lightning strikes. It's frightening. Boys look around in fear. They aren't happy anymore. They're scared.

It's dark and stormy, and we are in the middle of the ocean. What can we do?

Nothing. There is nothing they can do. They are silent, and they move on the water with the waves. They just wait. The water hurts their skin. After an hour, it isn't so dark anymore. The sun is rising. They all look at the sun. It shines over the ocean. They all think it's amazing.

The morning comes with a gift. They see a big island. Look, an island. The seaboys are happy again. Ten minutes later, they're at the beach. They jump and dance with happiness.

We are free. We are free. Boom. Suddenly, they hear a loud noise.

What's happening? Is this a bomb? Are we at war? They're frightened. They walk on the beach. Finally, they see a fun fair. The noise is coming from there.

Wow, a fun fair. The other seaboys don't understand anything. It's the first time they see a fun fair. They just look at it. They're confused.

It's colorful. What are those machines? A. You are Arda. Look at the fun fair and tell the other seaboys the names of the fun fair toys.

Look, people are screaming. Is this a dangerous place, Arda? No, it's exciting and fun. Roller coasters are my favorite. They are crazy.

Because they are very fast. What about the ghost train? It looks terrifying. It is terrifying, but it is also so much fun. I like ghost trains.

Do you like bumper cars too? Sure. Bumper cars are fantastic. What do you think about the carousel? It looks interesting.

I agree. It's interesting. The train ride looks interesting too. I disagree. I think the train ride is dull. But you like roller coasters. They look the same.

No, they aren't the same. The roller coaster is faster than the train ride. The ferris wheel is slow too. Is it boring? It is slow, but it goes to a higher place than the other rides.

So it isn't boring. It's exciting. B. Read the dialogue on page 53. How does Arda feel about fun fair rides? Tick the right emoticons.

After talking about fun fairs, Arda finds a poster on the ground. He smiles. Look, here is the poster of the fun fair he says.

See, look at the poster of the fun fair and answer the questions.

The amazing carnival. We work so hard and now it's time to have fun. Hooray! Our great leader Despota organizes a carnival for us. There is also a fun fair. Everything is free so you don't need any money or tokens.

Just shout thank you Despota. You're great. Then you can get on all the rides. Isn't it amazing? Date 24th of May. Time 11 a .m.

Great. Let's go and have some fun.

They walk to the fun fair. There is a woman standing there. She is smiling.

Welcome to the carnival. My name is Patty. Would you like to enjoy our rides here?

Sounds good. But we don't have any money. Patty points at a video camera.

You don't pay any money for the fun fair. Just look at the camera and shout. Thank you Despota. You are great.

Arda and the other sea boys look at the camera. They smile and shout. Thank you Despota. You're great. Patty smiles and opens the door.

Get in please.

D. Circle. I agree or I disagree.

They all get in.

Wow. This fun fair is more crowded than a city centre. There are long lines for the rides. We must wait a lot. It's so boring.

Nettie points at the train ride.

Look. The line for the train ride is shorter than the other lines. Let's go there.

Arda isn't happy. He thinks train rides are dull.

But the other lines are longer than this line. So Arda accepts their offer.

I agree. Let's go there.

The sea boys have a lot of fun on the train.

Chug chug. The train ride is fantastic. Only Arda looks bored on it. After the train ride, Arda runs to the roller coaster.

You think the train ride is fantastic? You must try the roller coaster. It is more exciting than the train ride.

They wait in a long line for it. Then they get on the roller coaster and stay on it for five minutes. After the roller coaster ride, Arda looks very happy. But the other sea boys look terrified.

You say the roller coaster is great. But I disagree. The roller coaster is awful. It is terrifying. We are so scared. We hate it.

I disagree. I love it. Let's try the ghost train this time.

The sea boys follow Arda and they get on the ghost train. Arda enjoys it so much. But the sea boys are scared again. The sea boys are scared again.

They scream a lot. Patty comes and takes them out of the ghost train before it finishes. Only Arda completes the ride.

The ghost train ride is thrilling. I like it. We disagree. It is more terrifying than the roller coaster. It's terrible. We don't like it.

Look at its name. It is the ghost train. Of course it's scary. That's the fun part. I think scary things aren't fun. Come on. You are pirates, not cowards. Let's try the ferris wheel this time. It isn't fast. It isn't scary. I think you will like it.

After the ferris wheel ride, Arda looks very happy.

It's interesting, isn't it? Yes, it is. We like it. But the train ride is more interesting than the ferris wheel. Fisher is right. The ferris wheel is fun, but the train ride is our favorite.

Later, he points at the carousel. The carousel looks interesting too. Let's try it.

The sea boys get on the carousel, but they don't enjoy it. The carousel is horrible. I feel dizzy. I feel dizzy too. You think the carousel is interesting, Arda. But we disagree. The carousel is awful. We don't like it. Do you really think so? In my opinion, the carousel is great.

Then they walk to the bumper cars. Let's get on them. Yes, they look enjoyable. They all enjoy riding the bumper cars.

This is fantastic. I agree. I am crazy about bumper cars. Yes, I love bumper cars. They are so much fun.

Later, they see a clown.

Hi. Would you like to visit the shopping mall?

Well, we're sorry. We don't have any money.

Oh. You don't need any money? Just shout. Thank you, Despotter. You are great. Then you can take everything here. You can also visit the hall of mirrors, the playground, the park, the sports complex, the shopping mall, and the park.

And the market. They are all free.

The seaboys look at the clown's camera and they smile.

Thank you, Despotter. You are great.

Oh, this place is amazing. We just shout these words and then everything is free. Let's go and take toffee apples.

At the end of the day, they all feel very tired. When they are leaving the fun fair, Patty stops them. She gives them some forms.

You must fill in these forms before you leave.

Sure. It looks easy.

But some seaboys think it's hard, so Arda helps them.

E. Read part D again and fill in the forms of the other seaboys. Make full sentences and circle the right emoticons.

After they fill in the forms, Arda gives them to Patty. Thank you for coming to the fun fair.

Later, she gives them little gifts. Arda opens his gift. It's the small sculpture of a man. He's got brown hair and brown eyes. He has a hat on his head. He smiles and shows his teeth.

Who is he?

What? You don't know him? He is Despotter, our leader.

Despotter? We're sorry. We are new on this island so we don't know him. Anyway, we want to go to Magnific. Can you tell us the way to the port?

Go straight ahead and take the second turn. It's next to the factory. You must hurry up. The ship will leave soon.

Arda and the other seaboys start running. They go straight ahead and take the second turn.

They see the ship, but they also see a sign.

It's horrifica! We are on the island of horrifica. This island causes the dirty wave under the ocean.

They're all surprised.

I can't believe this. It can't be horrifica. Horrifica must be a horrific place, right? But here, there are exciting fun fairs and nice people.

They look around. The factory is working. Workers are pouring waste into the ocean. The ocean looks green. They are despotous posters on the buildings.

Also, there are televisions everywhere.

This factory kills all the fish in the ocean. They are all our friends.

At that moment, Arda sees their video on TV. The television is on the wall of the port.

Look, we are on TV.

They all look at the TV. They're all surprised to see themselves on TV.

The ship is leaving, but the seaboys don't get on it.

I can't believe it. Despota is the leader of horrifica. He pours waste into the ocean. He kills our fish friends.

And we say, thank you, Despota. You're great. Why do we say this?

To have fun at the fun fair. Oh, it sounds silly now. I feel horrible.

I agree. I feel horrible too. We can't leave now. We must save the ocean first.
