Uncle Sam is my neighbour. He is also an honest taxi driver. With a word "Hello" and an ever-ready smile, this taxi driver is one of the loveable drivers in our neighbourhood. "Hello there! Where are you going?" Wncle Sam asked politely. "Hello, please take us to a terrace house beside the block 341." The couple lamented joyfully. Uncle Sam droved. "Goodbye Madam, goodbye sir!" Uncle Sam piped. The couples did not say anything and handed the taxi fare to Uncle Sam. They left as quick as lightning. Uncle Sam, started to drive. While he was driving, he caught sight of a polka-dot parcel. He was shocked and stunned. He quickly got out of his taxi and took the parcel and dashed helter-skelter towards the couple's house gate. Uncle Sam pressed the doorbell. "Ring, is anybody there?" The gate opened, the couples came out and asked,"May I help you?" Uncle Sam said,"You left your parcel in the taxi, I came to return the parcel to you. "The couple opened the parcel and checked if anything was lost. They thanked Uncle Sam and offered him precious things. LINDY, TING RU, JUSTIN.

The Honest Man It was another usual day for Alex. He drove a couple back safely to their terrace house. He also wished them a good day when they were paying their taxi fare so they had given him a tip. When Alex was about to leave, he spotted a box left behind by the pair of couple. Alex wanted to bring back the box home, but he thought of integrity. He quickly drove back to the couple’s terrace. Alex carried the parcel and pressed the doorbell. The couple stepped out and saw their important parcel. Inside was a precious necklace and money. “Oh, thank you!” said the couple. They wanted to give him the money that was inside the box but Alex didn’t want it. The couple said thank you and went inside the house. Alex felt relieved that the couple got back their important parcel.

A Good Deed Mr. Lee, a taxi driver recalled the good deed he had done. It all started like this…… It was a sunny day. The sun was shining and the birds were singing. Mr. Lee drove a loving couple who lives in a terrace house near Canberra Road. When the couple alighted, they gave $10 to Mr. Lee and told him to keep the change. Then the couple walked back to their terrace house. After a while, when Mr. Lee was getting ready to go he looked at the back seat and saw a parcel. It was the couple whom left it behind. So he quickly got out of his taxi and rang the doorbell of the couple’s house. Curiously, the couple came out of their house and asked Mr. Lee ‘‘May I help you?’’ Mr. Lee took out the parcel and asked whether the parcel was theirs. The couple nodded their heads and told Mr. Lee the parcel was theirs. Mr. Lee gave the parcel back to the couple and the man took the parcel and told the wife to open it. It was a beautiful diamond necklace which was a surprise to the wife and it cost nearly $10,000. The wife was very happy that the precious necklace was found. The wife rewarded Mr. Lee by giving him a $100 voucher. The End Done by Ernest, Regina, Sherlyn and Chloe

                                      The Honest Driver   Whenever Mr Lim, a part time taxi driver was hired by a couple, he would remember one of his happiest days of his life. It was five years ago when the scene took place.           A lovely couple hired him and he drove them to their destination. They wanted to go to a terrace house. They paid the taxi fare and went into the terrace house.           As Mr Lim drove away, at the corner of his eye, he spotted a beautifully wrapped parcel. He wondered whose it was. “Maybe it was the couple’s parcel,” thought Mr Lim.           He drove back to the terrace house and came out of his taxi, took the parcel from the backseat and rang the doorbell.           The man from the couple answered the door. When the woman saw the parcel, she was on cloud nine. She thanked him many times and even rewarded him for his honesty and the man wanted to give him extra taxi fare, but Mr Lim refused to accept.           So they rewarded him by inviting him to their party that they had prepared for their daughter’s birthday. Mr Lim was very happy that day. He wondered if he would ever meet that couple again.   By Beatrice, Jemima, Yong Shin and Ian.

The Honest Taxi Driver   "Thank you for the the ride, Mr." said Mr Tan to the taxi driver. The couple paid the taxi fare. The couple was going to a terrace house to celebrate a birthday celebration. The couple did not realise that they left something really important in the taxi.....     The taxi driver found the couple's parcel beautifully wrapped on the back sit of his taxi that is red in colour!  Suddenly two "angles" appeared beside him, a white one wearing a baseball cap which is a good one and a black one holding an axe which is the bad one. The sporty white "angel" said to the taxi driver, "return the red parcel back to the lovely couple! You are the taxi driver, you need to be honest!" While the ugly black "angel" said, "You should not return the parcel, you should keep it selfishly to yourself, who knows that there are valuables in the parcel and you can take it to sell and earn a fortune!"     The taxi driver agreed to listen to the white "angel". He opened his car door and headed straight to the terrace house with the beautifully wrapped parcel.     When he approached to the gate, he pressed the door bell giving it an ear-splitting sound. The master of the house and the couple came out, hoping that the taxi driver would come and return the parcel, and to their astonishment, they saw him, in his hand was the lost parcel. The grateful couple rewarded him a fifty dollar note and thanked him profusely for his honesty. He refused to accept the reward but went off happily as he felt that he had made the right choice.

I work as a taxi driver. It was a busy day for me. That day, I was driving a fashionably couple to a birthday party that was held at a long and beautiful terrace house. After they have paid the taxi fare, they alighted and left, unconsciously leaving behind a nicely wrapped box. The honest taxi driver, which is me, decided to return the nicely wrapped parcel that just got out from the back seat. As fast as a F1 racer, I quickly drove back and got out from my seat. Then, I quickly drove back and got out from my seat. Then, I rang the couple's door bell. Meow! I was shocked to know that someone would want a doorbell like that! As I was still thinking about it, the couple heard the sound of the bell ringing and opened the brown wooden door. They felt surprised to see me holding on to their parcel. So, they asked me why is it with me. And I answered "You left the parcel in the taxi." and they took the parcel back. The couple opened the parcel and saw glittering gold necklaces, ring and more accessories and precious jewelers. Since they were glad that I didn't steal parcel, they gave me a reward of ten million bucks. Even through I said no, they still put the money in my shirt pocket and shut the doors. Bang! So, I had no choice but to accept the money. Yahoo! I spent the money wisely on a mercedes benz car and a new bungalow with shimmering new furniture. I'm so proud of myself. BUT......now I'm bankrupt. Written By: Shayn, Alicia, Jesslynn & Xavier
