Korean International School, Ang, Ka Meng Joseph - 7, Fiction: Group 1
nce upon a time, there were three brothers calledWang XiaoWen,Wang Xiao Ming, andWang
Xiao Shang. One day, they decided to have a race to the Pearl River Delta. Each of them went on
the three main rivers which are the Xi Jiang River, the Bei Jiang River, and the Dong Jiang River.
Wan Xiao Ming went on the Bei Jiang River,Wan Xiao Shang went on the Xi Jiang River, andWan Xiao
Wen went on the Dong Jiang River.Then they started on the edge of each river. Ready Set Go!!!!!!!!!! Then
the race began.
However, the rivers were too polluted with rubbish like cans, plastic bottles and food waste. That means their
boats couldn’t move very fast. The pollution smelt very bad and fishes couldn’t live in the river. The
fishermen were very sad and couldn’t do their jobs. The three brothers felt really sorry for the fishermen, and
wanted to help by cleaning the river up.
They cleaned the river by picking up the garbage and putting the rubbish into their boats before continuing
the race. Their boats were special recycling boats so they used the garbage to generate power for the engine.
The more rubbish they collected the faster their boats went.
After cleaning up the river, the marathon continued. About two hours into the race,Wan XiaoWen was in
the lead. Soon after,Wan Xiao Shang was catching up. But soon after,Wan Xiao Ming was far ahead in the
race.
Guangzhou is the finish line of the race. The city is located on the southern tip of the Pearl River Delta.
Guangzhou is the third largest Chinese city and has a population of 12.70 million people.
As they got closer to the finish line, they collected even more rubbish to generate even more power to make
boats go even faster because the three brothers all wanted to get there first. The rivers behind them were very
clean so they continued to clean the rivers to make their boats go as fast as they could to get them to the
finishing line.
At the finishing line, there were many spectators cheering for the three brothers. It was a very close race
between all of them but it was a tie.The spectators were also very because the Xi Jiang River, the Bei Jiang
River and the Dong Jiang River were all cleaned up.
