Tuesday was my birthday. I 1 a day of cake and presents but it turned into a day of mystery. Someone 2 a bottle with a letter and a treasure map. It said there was a treasure of over 20 million dollars. I didn't know whether it was a trick or whether I should 3 it. If it was real,it would be the best present I had ever got. I decided to 4 .
Two of my friends came and we rented a truck. 5 , I thought about turning back twice during this trip, but I did not think it was a 6 decision. I needed to give this trip twice the effort I had been putting in. This would take all my trust in order for me to find the 7 .
"The map says you have got to turn when you see a large stone with a red circle," said one of them.
"What do we do after the turn?" I asked 8 .
"It says we should see a tree. We are 9 to turn 20 metres north of it and dig."
We got there and dug. We had 10 at first digging but we got better and worked very 11 . My trousers were dirty but I kept digging until I 12 a metal box. We opened the lock and looked into it. There was a letter. It read:
"The lesson you have learned will be very 13 . If you put as much energy in anything you do as you did in finding the 14 , you will have found the key to making over 20 million dollars."
This was a trick from my parents. I thought I would never forget this 15 birthday present.
