Chapter 1
The Plan to the House

Kathy Chan was a form two student. She was very vexed because she had not decided where she would go this summer holiday yet.
Suddenly, the telephone rang.

“Hello, this is the Chan family.” Said Kathy.
“This is Grandma! How are you?” Said the voice on the other end.
“I am fine, thank you, but I am vexed because I haven’t decided where to go this summer holiday.” Said Kathy, unhappily.
“Would you like to go to your uncle’s old house? It is empty now.” Said Grandma.
“Yes, yes, I would like to go there!”
“Then pack a bag and go there.”
“Oh, thank you very much, Grandma.”
“Don’t mention it. I would rather like someone to look after the house! You may come tomorrow to get the key.”
“All right, goodbye.”
“Goodbye.”
Kathy was not worried about the summer holiday now. She had gone to the old house once when she was small. The house was in the country-side, because her uncle loved silent. He didn’t like the noise. However, she could not remember the details of the house very clearly, but she remembered that the house was big and beautiful. There was a park behind the house, too. In the park, there was a very big tree. The tree was the biggest one that Kathy had ever seen.
