Last Friday a storm swept through two villages in the New Territories, destroying(摧毀) fourteen homes. Seven others were so badly damaged that their owners had to leave them, and fifteen others had broken windows or broken roofs. One person was killed, several were badly hurt and taken to the hospital, and a number of other people received light hurt.

In total, over two hundred people were homeless. Mr Tan said that the storm began early in the morning and lasted for over an hour. “I was eating with my wife and children when we heard a loud noise,” he said. “Several minutes later, our house fell down on top of us. We tried our best to climb out but then I saw that one of my children was missing. I went back inside and found him safe but very frightened.”

Mrs Woo said that her husband had just left for work when she felt that her house was moving. She ran outside at once with her children. “There was no time to take anything,” she said. “A few minutes later, the roof came down.”

Now the game Angry Birds has become more and more popular with the young and the old. I’m sure you also enjoy it a lot. But is it too small to play the game on your mobile phone or on your computer? Do you want to visit a park where you can find some bigger birds and pigs? As this picture shows, Angry Birds has now become much bigger. Copying the action of the real computer game, players pull a real catapult(彈弓) and shoot Angry Birds toys at green piggy balloons. I think that must be very exciting to touch such big birds.

Angry Birds Land recently opened inside Sarkanniemi Amusement Park in Tampere, Finland(芬蘭). It is the first Angry Birds theme park in the world. Finland is a country in northern Europe. And then other countries will copy Finland’s example. The UK government says that they plan to build Angry Birds theme parks in the UK.
