1.  I had a passion for travelling and I was really excited when my mother have phoned me just before

2.  the end of summer term. ‘I’ve found you a few summer job on a cruise ship!’ she said. It was

3.  going to be the best summer ever! When I am arrived on board, I hurried off to the restaurant to

4.  get my lots instructions. Someone important-looking came up to me. ‘You’ll be responsible for

5.  the two tables the furthest one from the kitchen.’ He pointed to two tables set for six people each.

6.  My mind started to swim: twelve people, three courses, miles to walk either back and forth to the

7.  kitchen. That’s when the ship started to move. I could feel the floor which becoming slightly unsteady

8.  under my feet. I pictured myself trying to maintain my balance and reach my tables enough safely.

9.  No, this was not what I had expected. I turned to say, ‘Thanks you but I...,’ when the bell sounded,

10.  and people who started to flood into the restaurant. The ship had sailed, and I couldn’t escape.
