For Lachlan's family, January was the time for their summer vacation. Lachlan
loved spending two weeks at the beach, because it meant he didn't have to
do any chores and could do whatever he wanted, like going swimming at the
beach or staying up late watching scary movies with his father.
The car was packed and ready to go and soon enough the family was on its
way. All seemed to be going as planned until two hours into the trip, when
the car began to make an unwelcome hissing sound and smoke began to
come from the bonnet. Lachlan's father pulled the car over to the side of the
road and opened the bonnet to find smoke coming from the engine. "I think
we've overheated," his father said. "We'll have to call someone in to fix it."
As they waited by the side of the road, the sun began to beat down and the
whole family was exhausted. "I wish it wasn't so hot," Lachlan said,
wondering if they would ever get to the beach. After an hour of waiting, a
mobile mechanic finally arrived to assess the damage. "I can't fix this here.
I'll have to tow the car back to the garage and fix it over night," Sam the
mechanic explained to the family. "Over night?" his father questioned. "Where
are we going to stay?" "There is a hotel in town you and your family can stay
at until the car is repaired in the morning," said the mechanic.
The family's vacation was looking as though it was never going to happen but
they all tried to stay positive. They spent the night in a small, run-down hotel
in the middle of nowhere and they all hoped that the car would be fixed by
the morning. The hot water was broken, so they all had cold showers and
there was only one bed, so they all had to squash in together.
The morning came and, sure enough, the car was fixed and ready to go.
Lachlan and his sister quickly piled into the car and continued their journey to
their summer vacation. After two further hours of driving they were all happy
to finally arrive. "Hooray!" Lachlan yelled, heading straight to the surf. The
next two weeks were filled with fun and sun and, although it took longer than
expected to arrive, overall the trip was a success.
What is the main theme of this story?
45
Options
A Cars can be unreliable.
B Unfortunate things happen to the same people all the time
