Academic Quiz

On the 17th of September our reading group went to the academic quiz it was at Henley hall.The academic quiz is a challenge to test our knowledge in a wide range of hard subjects like music, maths, social science, and literature.We studied long and hard on the subjects but it was difficult because the subjects were very wide.We spent two weeks researching the subjects and then Mrs. Scott gave us a big sheet of paper and we had to write down all the facts we knew.....but when it came to the real thing we still couldn't remember everything. However, we had a great time.

 Alex

 by James

Two days ago Alex was plunged into darkness when his ship was obliterated.He had never been exceptionally intelligent but he was smart enough to know when he was beat.Two days ago he had to dash to the newly installed multi-directional escape pod.When he had been in orbit for several cruel days in the escape pod it malfunctioned and he was in for a devastating crash.His pod came down onto a new planet it had lots of luscious blues and some magnificent greens.Then suddenly he blacked out, his last visions being bits of metal exploding in all directions.

Alex woke up.He was clueless to where he was or why.How long had he been here? “Hello?” his voice echoed.He seemed to be in some sort of cave.As his eyes adjusted he started to observe his surroundings when suddenly his memory started to come back.I have to get back home!He thought as his mind paced.He scavenged for something, anything when his hand grabbed something.

“A torch!” Alex exclaimed as he flicked the switch.He peered around.He was actually in some sort of entranceway made of steel and alloy.Suddenly a figure emerged from the darkness armed with a military grade rifle.”Intruder!” The figure shouted and his gun exploded into a mass of bullets.Alex quickly dashed to cover, with a stream of bullets beside him, he was trapped.He had to get out!Alex was terrified he just could not get his head together.Then in an instant it was gone be he had saw it.A do-”Intruder alert!Intruder alert!” There was a deafening siren.Now he had to get out.Now.

Alex took a daring chance when he rolled under the heavy stream of bullets but it paid of because when he collided with the door he was in luck.The door flung open and just as they were homing in there it was Utility’s room.

Alex quickly slammed the door behind him.Then he glanced up, there was a vent!Just as he suspected.He peered around.There was a cluster of boxes hiding a metal object.He quickly chucked them away and it revealed, a ladder!He dashed for it and it came crashing down.He had to manoeuvre himself in a position where he could pull it, but that was easy.Alex hauled the ladder up and the last thing he saw was the door bursting open with a stream of bullets following, as he escaped into the safety of the vent.
