Chapter 6

A New Life in Horrifica

The factory in Horrifica is awful

It is crowded, noisy, and dirty

Dyspoda is the leader of the island

He is also the leader of the factory

He doesn't care about nature

He thinks money is more important than nature

Arda and the other seaboys don't agree with Dyspoda

They need a good plan

We must get in that factory

We must go there

But how?

Look, there is a poster on the street

I think it's about the factory

It can help us

But it's torn

Where are the other pieces of it?

Here, there are many pieces

First, we must match the pieces

A

Match the pieces of the torn poster

That's it

We must go there and get these jobs

That's silly

We can't get these jobs

Why not?

Because we aren't managers, workers, engineers, mechanics, lawyers or salesmen

We are just seaboys

Seaboys have fishtails

We don't have fishtails now

So we aren't seaboys now

We were seaboys

Noah is right

We aren't even seaboys now

We are nothing

So we can't get those jobs

This is silly

You weren't born in the sea, right?

Remember your past

What were your occupations?

The seaboys think

Finally, they talk about their occupations in the past

Or were

I was a pirate

I was a pirate too

We were all pirates

We were on the same ship

What about you, Arda?

What do you do?

I'm a student

Six pirates and one student

How can we get those jobs in the factory?

They don't know us, we can lie

I think it is a very bad plan

We must save the ocean

We must get into that factory

Do you have a better plan for this?

Fine, let's go on with the silly plan then

After this conversation

They start riding their cvs

Of course, they aren't real cvs

They're full of lies

See

Look at their cvs

And write paragraphs with the given information

Write the dates in words

The next day, Arda and his friends

Go to the factory

You can get in

Mr. Despoto is waiting for you

Arda gets into Despoto's room

Despoto is sitting on his expensive chair

He's wearing red clothes

There is a sculpture on his table

It's his own sculpture

The walls of the room are full of his posters

Hello

Welcome to horrifica

Please sit down

Do you want tea or coffee?

Tea please?

Sure

Where is the waiter?

We want to order tea

I'm sorry, but we don't have a waiter anymore

He is retired, remember?

I'm the leader of horrifica

And I don't have a waiter

It's okay, I can serve tea

He goes near the tea pot

He makes two cups of tea

And brings them to the table

Despoto drinks his tea

And he feels better

Later, he looks at Arda's CV

So, you were born in 1999

You look younger than that

Arda's face turns red

Because he starts lying

Yes, I look younger

I always eat healthy and nutritious food

But you look twelve

Thank you

Despoto looks at Arda carefully

He doesn't believe him

Arda's anxious

He wants this job a lot

I don't want much money

Really?

That's great

But there is a problem

I don't need a manager

Arda is surprised

He shows him the poster

Look, this poster says you need a manager

Despoto looks at the poster

And he laughs

Ha, it's an old poster

It's last years

I don't need a manager now

But I need a waiter

Would you like to get this job?

Sure

Arda gets out of Despoto's room

And his friends start asking him questions

D, you are Arda

Answer your friends' questions

Write the letter of the correct answer

in the box

1

Do you have the job?

No, I don't

But I have another job here now

2

What is your new job?

I'm a waiter

3

Really?

What can you do?

I can serve tea and coffee

4

Where is the old waiter?

He is retired

At that moment

The secretary opens the door of Despoto's room

You can get in, Mr. Fisher

It's your turn

Later, she turns to Arda

And you serve their drinks, Arda

So Arda goes into Despoto's room, too

He serves tea and coffee during all the interviews

He can hear some parts of the interviews

He whispers the right answers to his friends

And he helps them

E, write the answers to Despoto's questions in the interviews

That's great, their plan works

F

Match the sea boys with their new occupations

Awesome, we are in

Now we can save the ocean

We are heroes

This is a wonderful plan, Arda

That's great

Fantastic

At that moment, Despottas shouts from his room

Wait -a

And he panics

He runs to his room

Fisher smiles

That's one great hero
