King of Pop moonwalk

English

Jean wasn’t sure if she liked Pop music, but her friend Will said, "You have to listen to Michael Jackson!" Jean asked, "Is he the King of Pop?" Will laughed. "Yes! He invented the moonwalk. Have you seen the 'Thriller' video?" Jean hadn’t. They watched it together. Jean was amazed. "Did he really dance like that?" Will nodded. "That song is famous! Do you want to learn the moonwalk?" Jean wasn’t sure. "I can’t dance like Michael Jackson!" Will smiled. "We are going to try. He’s not here, but we can sing 'Beat It' too!" Jean laughed. "Okay, but I won’t be as good as him!" They danced and sang all night.

Michael Jackson concert unforgettable glittery glove

English

Last night, I went to a Michael Jackson concert. The performers were amazing, but I was nervous. Did I have a ticket? Yes, I bought one just in time. The stage was glittery, and the melody of "Smooth Criminal" was the best. Michael Jackson wore his famous glove—a shiny, glittery glove. He didn't perform the moonwalk at first, but when he did, the crowd went wild! She hummed the catchy tune, and I couldn't stop humming too. If you were there, you would feel the energy. They weren't shy—everyone danced! Will you buy a ticket for the next concert? You must! It was unforgettable.

Lena practiced the moonwalk

English

Lena loved Michael Jackson. She wanted to dance like him, but she wasn’t very good. "If I practice the moonwalk, will I improve?" she asked. Her friend said, "You must memorize the moves first!" Lena tried but didn’t understand the steps. "That isn’t better," she sighed. "Do you know the lyrics?" her friend asked. Lena hummed the tune but didn’t sing the lyrics. "Michael Jackson is a pop icon," her friend said. "His music influenced modern dance." Lena nodded. "The moonwalk is his famous move." She kept practicing. "They wouldn’t call him an icon if he didn’t dance so much!" she laughed. Soon, she moved better.
