The children pulled the boat up from the water and started to look around the island.
“Bring the picnic basket up here, under this tree,” said Ann. “ We must keep it cool.”
Lucy and Lliy took the basket from the boat and put it under the tree.
Lucy heard a noise, so she asked, “Does anybody live here?”
“No! We’re alone here.” said Jim. “Isn’t that great?”
“Don’t worry!” said Kate. “We’re safe. Don’t be afraid. Let’s go for a walk.”
The children walked around, talking, and laughed happily.
When they came back for lunch, Bruce cried, “Oh dear! The picnic basket is missing!”

We all wondered what happened.My next-door neighbor Mr.Li said it might be a dog that made the noise at night.However, my mother said that there must be someone having fun. At last, we asked the police for help.The policemen stayed at the neighborhood at night and searched for the sound. Finally, they found a parrot in the bushes in the south corner of our neighborhood.With the help of the neighbors, the parrot was given back to its owner.
