CINEMA
My first visit to the cinema was a very unhappy one. I was taken there by some friends when I was only
seven years old. At first there were bright lights and music and I felt quite happy. When the lights went out,
I felt afraid. Then I saw a train on the screen. The train was coming towards me, I shouted out in fear and
got down under my seat. When my friends saw me, they started to laugh. I felt ashamed and sat back in my
seat. I was very glad when the film ended.
