A

It was a wet, rainy day during the school holidays. Lily looked out of the window and thought about her parents. They were on a long holiday. They said Lily was too young to go. So Lily was staying with her Aunt Bella. Today Lily was unhappy. She was all alone —Aunt Bella was out shopping.

Lily decided to go to the top floor. Maybe there was something interesting. She arrived at the top. There was an old door. Lily opened the door and walked in. The walls were changing colours. A sofa wasn’t on the floor! It was in the air. Suddenly she heard a sound “Whoooosh” and after a minute she saw a boy appear(出现).

The genie said, “Well, I must go now!” Then suddenly he was gone. Lily went downstairs(下楼) and found a postcard from her parents. It said, “Dear Lily. Miss you, back next week, love Mom and Dad.” Then the front door opened and she heard Aunt Bella arriving with her shopping.

The next day Lily decided to say “Thank you” to the genie. She went to the top floor and opened the door. But there was nothing there except a dark old room with a few boxes.
