Contoh 1:

Last weekend, I had a great time with my family. On Saturday morning, we went to the zoo. It was a sunny day and there were lots of animals to see. We saw elephants, lions, tigers, and bears. My favorite animal was the giraffe. After spending a few hours at the zoo, we went to a restaurant for lunch. We ate burgers and fries and drank soda. In the afternoon, we went to the park and played soccer. It was a lot of fun and we laughed a lot. I can't wait to do it again!
