BR1-04: Hannah and the hurricane

Work together with the two boats. (p. 15)

Hannah was sixteen and lived on an island. She was on holiday from school and was working for Mr. Duval on his glass- bottomed boat. They took people to look at the beautiful fish and the coral reef under the sea. His boat was the only grass-bottomed boat on the island. One day, the new boat was taking people out to look at the coral reef, and there are people waiting for it to come back. Then, Hannah found out the reason why people didn't ride on Mr. Duval's boat. The reason is that riding on the new boat is cheaper than riding his boat. The richest man on the island had the new boat. His name was Max Marker. The two weeks went by. She lost her job because Mr. Duval's boat had no guests. Then, Max said to Mr. Duval that if he sold his boat, Max gave him a good price for it. Of course, he declined. The next morning Mr. Duval went to his boat and saw that it was under the water! It was the Max's work. That day, because the hurricane is coming, she wanted to go his house to fight him but she couldn't. After the hurricane went on, She went to the Max's house to see him. She found the some of his house was gone, and he was inside the house! She helped him. Although he said he paid some money to her but she declined and she said to him to stop his nasty game!
