Minion attacks – level 2
10-08-2015 15:00
Minions were first introduced in the movie “Despicable Me” five years ago. Now, they have their own film.
People put a 12-metre-tall inflatable Minion in North Dublin. It blew onto a busy road and brought the traffic to a standstill. Thankfully, nobody was injured in the Minion attack.
Difficult words: despicable (very bad), inflatable (capable of being filled with air), standstill (a situation when everything stops).
You can read the original story and watch the video in the Level 3 section.
